I liked Dead Snow

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Mon 28 Feb 2011, 13:52, 2 replies, latest was 15 years ago)

I still have Die Welle to watch
I couldn't take that after Das Experiment though I think I would have ended up bitter and cynical or "monty" as it's more commenly known

Dead Snow is very silly
the bit when the guy gets his intestines skewered to a tree as he runs away is very amusing.

Awesome silly is good
Pirahna 2d was delightfully silly. Although not in the same league as Sharks in Venice

Piranha 2d?
Is that an Asylum version of Piranha 3d?

Yes

In God's name, why?
It was more 'ironic genre self-referencing' that that God-awful heap of shit 'Spaced'*.

I watched 'Burke and Hare' on Saturday night. The only thing worse than that cunt Pegg is Bill Bailey's 'Scottish Accent'. The only funny/non-bent bit in the whole film is the five seconds of Paul Whitehouse playing a drunk.

*I saw an episode of that the other day just to make sure it really was as shit as I had thought. It was worse.

because I can allow myself to enjoy things.
it was entertaining and reasonably well made. There were some moments of comedy violence and gore.

I enjoy lots of things. Really fucking shit Scandinavian films aren't one of them.

You should embrace you silly side more often Monty.

I think that's why I liked it
because it is silly.

There's little point in arguing with Monty about this sort of thing. It's like arguing with him about playing games.

being Scandinavian had nothing to do with it.
and it was considerably better than a lot of films.

I'm easily pleased when it comes to film. I enjoy a great film as much as anyone, but am quite content to watch pretty much anything.

that aside, it's a zombie film, and if it has zombies or vampires in it then chances are I'll enjoy it. Excluding Twilight, which I have not watched.

....because you think the films will never equal the books, which you think are BRILLIANT.

That was Al

god, even I haven't read the Twilight books
and I will unashamedly read any old shit. I've read most of Anne Rice's books and James Patterson and Harry Potter, but even I draw the line at reading Twilight.

You're right not to bother.

I saw the first movie
Honestly one of the worst films i've ever seen

I will steer even more clear than I had been planning then

Some of those Anne Rice books werre OK I thought.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Mon 28 Feb 2011, 14:13, Reply)

the first few were ok
and then some vampire-paedo-bumderism crept in, which put me off a bit.

then there was the one with Lestat going back in time and drinking Jesus' blood or something....
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Mon 28 Feb 2011, 14:16, Reply)

Did Jesus become a vampire?

( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Mon 28 Feb 2011, 14:17, Reply)

don't be silly
he would have had to have drunk some of Lestat's blood for that to happen

duh

oh sorry my vampire knowledge obviously isn't up to par

I read them all and they did get a bit strange towards the end.

( girlinthehole, Mon 28 Feb 2011, 14:17, Reply)

It was better than 'Police Academy 9' I suppose.

This will cheer you up.
I've bought the first Shardlake book to read after I've finished Wolf Hall.
