just watched eraserhead tonight. it was a great flick. very different from anything i have seen. it's a must see for horror buffs.

^ I never felt it was a horror film. It's surreal and existentialist.
Well it's kind of an autobiography.

Still is a must, of course.

If you want to see Cronenberg at his absolute weirdest then Naked Lunch is the one to see.

The Fly is awesome, easily one of my all time favorite horror films. Overall Cronenberg is very high on the tier of horror/thriller directors for me. I hope he gets back to straight up horror stuff someday because that genre is in desperate need of something interesting right now.

The French and Belgians have been knocking out some of the most cerebral and intelligent Horror films of the last 5 years or so it's only the stagnant Hollywood crap that has lead to this assumption. Calvaire, Haute Tension, Frontieres, Trouble Every Day, Ex Drummer (although a black comedy if truth be told),À l'intérieur and Martyrs are superlative Horror films that have breathed new life into Horror and all worthy of inspection.

i agree the French and British have it goin on, they aren't scared to go to far with the gore either. if you like inside and martyr try Eden lake and Antichrist. Eden lake was disturbing because of who was doing the torturing, Antichrist on the other hand had some imaged that i would rather of not seen. It really made me cringe, but was a good movie otherwise.

I have antichrist and I've been wanting to watch it except a friend of mine said it was a bit boring because it's all dialogue between these two people .. and that the interaction between these two alone can't carry the movie in such a way that it's entertaining from start to end. He didn't say it was terrible, but I got the impression it was nothing to get excited about.

Yeah, I'm pretty much talking specifically about the American horror film industry.

But don't worry, all of these movies will get godawful American remakes eventually.

Which reminds me, Let the Right One In is getting remade, it will be directed by the Cloverfield guy and star that kid from The Road.

what a crock if shit, i have been dreading this. I believe it is to be called 'Let Me In'.
Fucking CLOVERFIELD?! let the cultural imperialism continue

God I fucking hate Cloverfield. Nobody I know hates it with as much passion as I do..... but it's just so pointless, in a badly directed boring way.

Death At A Funeral is also getting an American Remake... here's the trailer:



is there anything we can't rape to pieces?
