Good film. I've seen it loads of times.
I was watching 'The Chronicles of Riddick' again earlier (ITV4). Yes I know its 'escapist fantasy nonsense', but it's really well done and on a hugely grand scale. There are some very decent actors and acting and the plot is nicely elaborate. Vin Diesel is perfect as the droll and taciturn 'hero' and the CG stuff is spectacular and very well handled. The big twist at the end finishes the whole thing off nicely.
Good film that, reminded me of Dune in a lot of ways.
Watched "The Signal" last night.
Very good, came into it cold so didn't know what to expect other than it recommended by a mate.
Thoroughly enjoyable in a mind-bendery cold Kubrickian kinda way. :)
Reminded me (atmosphere wise) of Phase 4, a seventies scifi Classic, but with a few other staples thrown into the mix too.
Don't check it on IMDB first....just watch it.
I love Phase 4, the music is fantastic too - I would love a copy of the soundtrack as I would also music from The Mutations.Quote:

Saw both the latter films you mention Neil, ok.but seen the same done better elsewhere.
the Signals a good 'un though.
Just started watching Breaking Bad, 3 episodes in.
Wish me luck!
Film tonight is the leone classic "Once Upon A Time in the West" starring The beautiful Claudia C, Henry F, Jason R and Mr death himself, Chuck Bronson. Watching the special collectors edition.
Leone' comments "The rhythm of the film was intended to create the sensation of the last gasps that a persn takes just before dying".(how true) FROM START TO FINISH, A DANCE OF DEATH.
A masterpiece, both visually and sonically, this is still my favourite film of all time 12/10:)
