chilli Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Just watched a film that i've not seen before now - some of you may have seen it a while ago as i missed it at the cinema and had to wait for the DVD. It's 'The Skeleton Key' starring Kate Hudson. EXCELLENT film. One of the best that i've seen in a very long time - keeps you on the edge of your seat and not for the weak hearted! Hide behind your cushion kinda stuff. So definately a film recommendation from me and the gf. 5/5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarface GTti Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Same here. Never heard of it. I`ll go and grab a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 It's 'OK' Personally, if you like that sort of thing, Saw 2 and the shit-scary Hostel are far better. Also: Aeon Flux - quite good, bit like the island Serenity - space film, not bad Jarhead - pretty good war-esque film The Descent - very good caving film - all goes wrong, weird ending Bad news bears - very funny film, think mighty-ducks but about baseball and with Billy bob thornton, VERY funny. memoirs of a geisha- very good topical film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 yeah it's good. bit ghey but yeah, good film. Mrs' liked it more than I did, not because of the two blokes but I just thought "another gay cowboy" film, was much better than I anticipated though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli Posted January 15, 2006 Author Share Posted January 15, 2006 Saw 2 was good - but you kinda knew what was comming, must have just got into The Skeleton Key then, appologies for hyping it but it's worth watching if you've not seen it, you might just get into it like we did. Loved Saw 1 btw when it first came out, because the idea was quite novel. What's this Hostel all about then, do we need to rent it asap?

Lewis Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 hostel: http://imdb.com/title/tt0450278/ people have been puking in the cinemas in the states, I thought it was pretty shocking. quote "Make no mistake about it, this is a violent, sick, and gory flick. It's not for the squeamish. I haven't seen this type of extreme violence in a North America mainstream cinema. The Takashi Miike, and Asian Cinema influences are clearly seen here. This is a film that will shock people, and remain in there heads well after the film is over. It will be interesting to see how the film is edited, and rated. In it's current state, I don't see how it could get anything less than the dreaded NC-17 rating. I just hope that it's not butchered too much, as the audience deserves to see the film how it was intended. Eli Roth has completely redeemed himself for what I thought was a very poor film in Cabin Fever, and has made one kick-ass horror film.

Sounds excellent, is it out to rent now? Maybe best if we watch it during the day for my own sanity... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 nah, not even sure if it is in the cinema's here yet. Worth watching though - even if you have to wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Just stick Sky News on. It's even scarier as it's real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted January 15, 2006 Author Share Posted January 15, 2006 lol - well maybe the unedited version is kicking around as a torrent or something - not that I would condone downloading it - expecially such a high profile film in this day and age. Does sound good though, sounds like I will have to watch it, if nothing else, just to see what all the fuss is about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colsoop Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 I have checked out the films that were recommended in the thread, i enjoyed them, cheers. Do you guys have anymore recommendations. I had a look at that film "hostel" and i couldn't really see a good copy but from what i could make out it was fairly gruesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
