The last film you watched.... |
|
I thought we already had a thread for this, but apparently we don't! So, what was the last film you watched? Was it excellent or did it suck?
Last night I watched Shrooms - about a group of US college kids who go all the way to Ireland to trip out on magic mushrooms (I'm sure they have them in America..) but inevitably a couple of bad trips later and there's all kinds of B-movie chaos happening.
Not a bad film, apart from some terrible Irish accents and an eyebrow raising portrayal of the "locals". I didn't think it was scary and the twist at the end was so obvious they might as well have just printed it on a tshirt, but if you don't want to engage your brain it's not a bad film to watch!

Doesn't sound like my sort of film. I actually can't remember the last one I watched. Not a whole film. I watched the end of the Mummy Returns last night on TV.

Might just be me posting in here then! I seem to get through a lot of trashy horror films . I watched a bit of Mummy Returns too, but got bored when they introduced some big scorpion-bloke into the mix...

Yeah I was only watching it cos I was waiting for the X Factor to come on! I only really tend to watch films all the way through when I go to the cinema, at home I tend to get bored and only watch bits and pieces. I did watch most of Flightplan the other day, then went to bed before the end! It was quite good though.

I haven't seen Shrooms but there's been a lot of publicity about it here over the bad accents and stuff!
Last film i watched...think it was that awful Welcome to the Jungle 2008 one I posted a rant about in here, the cannibalism with stupid Australians, that was terrible!

Just watched [.Rec] , a spanish film about a load of scary zombies in an apartment building.
Spanish horror films tend to be really good, this was a good'un too. Quite jumpy and lots of grainy hand-held camera shots. I'd recommend it if you like scary films!

I'm no good with scary films, especially not jumpy ones!

They're sort of 28 days later zombies, it's all an infection but they still end up zombies in the end!
Talking of endings - veeery weird....

I watched How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days. But it was a bit crap, and I didn't actually watch it all cos again, I got bored. It was on TV the other night.

That's one of those films I never bothered with, it just sounded too silly!
Last film I saw was some thriller, Murder at 1600, it was on TV late Saturday night. Wasn't great, about an intern in the White House getting murdered, but it was decent enough that I wanted to see how it would end.

I watched "The Abandoned" the other night. It sucked big time - deserted house, dead people, but sooo not scary or cleverly done.

Watched the latest Tarantino film last night - "Deathproof".
I really enjoyed it! it was a bit slow to start with but the car chase theat went on for most of the last half hour was just brilliant, it was like an homage to Vanishing Point...with a smooth-talking serial killer and a gang of girls kicking ass!

I saw bits and pieces of Brokeback Mountain. Seemed kinda dull and wasn't paying too much attention.

I saw "The Eye" last night. It was a Hollywood adaptation of a Japanese film and it was a bit disappointing. There weren't enough scares really, and the main character was so lame it was hard to care that she was seeing dead people... and the ending was cheeeeeeese! Typical Hollywood, they can't help but stick in a heart-warming finish, even if the film's been full of floating dead people...
Might go watch the original japanese version, that'll probably scare the pants off me.
