Thought snuff movies were an urban legend
I'm talking about films you could walk into a shop and buy,they sound worse than the horror ones I don't like
Posted By: _Ste_ Re: what type of film do you watch - 17th Apr 2011 1:46pm
If you seen august underground Derek you'd think it was real!
Scary stuff, I put a clip on YouTube and people thought it was real footage, police were almost involved lol.
As for faces of death, that is real, real clips of people dying caught on camera.
They I can understand you being scared of derrick but normal films? Come on son, it's acting smile

Don't you think with all the knifings going on at the moment that there isn't someone that might be going that one step further with kidnap and torture just like some films - there are some nutjobs about which only come to light years later when bodies are found.
Anyway let's just keep it to types of films wiki people like to watch

Same thing, I've never heard of that before, snuff are video nasties, torture, real life deaths or the fictional acting of killing which is way to shocking to be horror.
What your talking of are illegal obviously so cannot be classed as anything.
Those types of videos are probably human sacrifice videos from the slayings that happen in London by a certain religion, I think it was on the news a couple of years ago, is that what your on about?

Brain damage is about a brain that talks and is evil.

In todays film making indusrty they would class it as quite mild tbh. Its more of a eye opener in the 80's rather than a bench mark to todays standards.

Brilliant film though, loved it to bits. I saw a southpark eppisode the other day were cartman was playing a super hero called "the coon" anyway long story short his follwers turned againg and questioned his authority so cartman and co were walking downt the road when the writers robbed the script from clock work and cartman lashed out. Very funny angle on it.

I like sci-fi I think. But mainly films that have a plot. Can't stand horrors where teens get picked off one by one (Final Destination etc). Can't stand films about American school/college life (apart from 10 Things I Hate About You).

Love old horror/sci-fi some make you laugh out loud but others actually do scare lol

Posted By: Wench Re: what type of film do you watch - 17th Apr 2011 8:34pm
Horror - Love horror films, as long as they're not full of stupid screaming bints and are as realistic as possible, based on fact or old. I stood in Liverpool a few years ago on Samhain and watched the original of Nostradamus and loved it! The likes of Scream and it's ilk bore me to tears. Love Japanese horror and French horror too.

sci-fi - not really my thing. Like the odd film but that's it. Sci Fi horror, like Rottweiler is good though.

Romance - not on your life!! Closest I get are Amelie, You've got mail, Sleepless in Seattle and Muriel's Wedding. It's movies like these that give women a false idea of what relationships are like and set both men and women up for a fall. Shoite the lot of it.

Truelife - love it.

Documentaries - depends what the subject matter is.

Comedy - very picky when it comes to comedy.

Cartoons - Not really my thing.

Thrillers - Good edge of your seat, didn't see that coming, damn I got the wrong guy/woman ones.

Period drama - Very few.

Crime - Hell yes raftl

Snuff - No thanks.

Porn - Can't stand the big titted, fake tanned blonde septic stuff. Prefer my goth porn raftl

Musicals - Very few.

World Cinema - Depends where it's from.

Art House - Depends where it's from.

Manga - only if it's pear and with no ice, not a fan of cider raftl

I think the only film I love that I wouldn't know what kind of genre to put it in is Koyaanisqatsi. Favourite films really are Hitchcock and anything with Bette Davis, Danny dyer or Nick Cage in it. Also, things like ....

Harry brown is a good film (micheal Caine) others include dead mans shoes, this is England, Eden lake, district 9, the ring (jap version), enemy at the gates (sniper film Jude law), the bad luitenant (Nicholas cage) I could go on, I probably have more DVDs than anyone on here, I don't rent them I buy them, oh just bought bonded by blood, that's a good film, only £8 at blockbuster, true story, like a remake of the Essex boys (which I also have).
Oh and taxi drover (deniro).

Sounds brutal.
The boy in the striped pyjamas is about world war 11 as well. Its about What the germans done to the jews, and a german boy makes freinds with a jewish boy who visits him at the war camp he is held.

I like a wide range, Sci-Fi being my favourite, although Hollywood remakes are doing a good job of killing that. Too much CGI and not enough substance these days frown

Musicals, arthouse and romantic comedies I tend to steer clear of, but there are exceptions.

Just watched The Green Mile, hell of a film and a great book(s). Shame Michael Clark Duncan went before his time. Didn't get the recognition he deserved. Brilliant actor!
The Rambo films are also very good, escapist action, open your ears, you will understand what he says!

The Green Mile....watched that about four times and don't know why! First time all the way through, subsequently closed my eyes at that horrible part which made me feel ill.
Recently watched 'Dr Zhivago' (again)....Lovely..
Grease is brilliant Rocks, but two of my all time favourites must be 'Fiddler on the Roof' and 'Evita'.

More recent that were imop. hilarious were 'Best In Show' and 'The Boat that Rocks'

Been to the pictures tonight to watch 'Philamena' a true story of a
woman trying to find her son after 50 years, based in Ireland 'the nuns' and spanned to America. I really enjoyed it ... made me cry..

sex and drugs and rock and roll, the story of Ian Dury brilliantly played by Andy Serkis. A very funny and sometimes touching film.

Oh dear! I went to see 'Philomena' and did not cry. My friend howled all the way through it, so am I hard-hearted? It was worth seeing.

I will go to watch any good film, and agree the Ian Drury film was brilliant.

Some of my favourites:

East is East
Beckett
Hero
Flying Daggers
Girl with Dragon Tattoo films-Swedish version
House of the Red Lanterns (old chinese film)
Brief Encounter
Any Indian Love film, the sort where they make eyes at each other and dance around trees

I never knew there was a Swedish version of the film called, Girl with the dragon tattoo.I loved watching part1, but part 2 was not so good.

Swedish was the original.The girl who played the lead was great.Hollywood just messed it up. I found the books very confusing. It was much better to see the films.
