Horror movies...


Quarantine just appeared on surfthechannel.com... It's the remake of the AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME spanish horror movie REC... The remake isn't so bad so far... But give me REC any time.
I just started becoming a downloader by the way... Spent about 6 hours trying to download Quarantine last night and it didn't work ha ha...
Tonight I went to see Fears of the Dark - which I didn't know much about, but it looked interesting. Its a series of animated horror stories...
I wouldn't recommend it whatsoever... The stories are a bit lame and lacking... It's interesting to see Charles Burns animations on the big screen, but the animation of it all is very odd...
It's only the last story that really starts to get going... It's just about a man who finds shelter from the snow in a spooky house - it's more about the stylish animation here rather than the story - but it decides to finish just as it's getting really good!
All in all, a very damp squib indeed...
Oh and a note to the film's producers - if you're gonna subtitle a film (Fears is French), then using white subtitles on a mostly black and very white film is a BAD IDEA. If you're struggling to enjoy a film, not being able to read what's going on ain't gonna help (and in fact, I did actually give up at one point.)
