    Inland Empire, 2006.. bluray



    The tagline "a woman in trouble" was used as marketing executives were so puzzled by the film that they did not know how to promote it.

    Lynch's last film... its also the craziest by far...

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    I gave up with Lynch after 'Mulholland Drive'. Saw most of his output before that. Found much of it interesting but there is nothing I would want to see again, apart from 'The Straight Story' and possibly 'Eraserhead', which IMO has to be Lynch's weirdest film.

    An American Werewolf in London, 1981. 4k ltd edition boxset.... classic this.






    This is the first film to earn the Academy Award for Best Make-up. That category was created in 1981.

    Rick Baker claimed to have been disappointed by the amount of time spent shooting the face-changing shot for the transformation after having spent months working on the mechanism. John Landis only required one take lasting about seven seconds. Baker felt he had wasted his time until seeing the film with an audience that applauded during that one seven-second shot.

    David Naughton was reportedly cast because John Landis had seen him in a television commercial for Dr Pepper. However, Naughton was later let go by Dr Pepper because of his nude scenes in this film.

    Griffin Dunne stated in 2007 that his biggest fear was that his mother, who was ill at the time, would not be able to handle seeing a film where her son appeared as a mutilated corpse. When she finally saw it, she was deeply disturbed by it.

    Not a bad film, but when it comes to lycanthropic films, IMO the best is 'Company of Wolves', made in 1984.

    See How They Run, 2022....It was theatrically released in the United Kingdom on 9 September 2022 and in the United States on 16 September 2022, by Searchlight Pictures. The film received positive reviews from critics and has grossed $22 million worldwide. It was nominated for Outstanding British Film at the 76th British Academy Film Awards.




    Richard "Dickie" Attenborough(Harris Dickenson) greets the detectives as "Darling." This was a real-life quirk of Attenborough's which he admitted he would often use if he forgot someone's name.
