So does that mean you dislike the first TCM too?

I'm sure you are already aware, but are probably just testing my mantle, that the 1974 film was an independent production.. and definitely was not a brand name franchise at that point.

Watched Kwaidan & Stir of Echoes. Very impressed by both.

You dicks owe me a watch from my list (Fates & Bungle).

You should watch 'The New York Ripper' then. It's a vile and repellent film. I can give props to the muder set-pieces for being well executed but other than it is truly "a nasty piece of work".

You cannot judge a film without seeing it first for yourself. You should score them H/S.

Can't wait to watch it with one of my mates, we have the exact same retarded humour, it'll be awesome. Better make sure we're pissed too. Such a fun flick!

I seriously can't remember the last time I had that much fun watching a film. Even the 3 main characters were all lovable. And the chiccck. Jesus fucking Christ. I want to be in her.

That's good to hear. I've had it for ages but I still haven't got around to seeing it. Now I just might have to.

Exactly.

Yes, but if it's an independent film that you like then what reason have you got to dislike the now brand name? You have no reason for not watching the sequels. You're missing out on TCM 2. It fucking rocks!

Every hear of symbolism? You talk a lot of shit about movies that you never saw before .. You're the type of member that's just wrong on so many levels.

I've seen TCM 2 and the remake. Both very poor compared to the original.

Well I try and back up most of what I say but I still get shit on.. But I pay of no mind.

Yes, symbolism is a very good technique, so long as it is used correctly. If I have to decipher hidden meanings just to enjoy a film, then it is very poor technique. A smart filmmaker would use multiple layers of meaning.. Stanley Kubrick for example, was genius at this.. But Jodorowsky is far too blatant, hence being forever confined to obscure arthouse status.

It's credited with starting the 28 Days Later craze. You can make the argument that this was based on the Crazies as well, which I wouldn't argue with, but the look of the Rabid people, seems to be mirrored more directly by the infected.

I hope a blu-ray comes out soon. I love it.
