John Carpenter's THE THING on Arrow UK blu .

For around the fifth time and still love it .
Practical special effects and it pays due homage to " The Thing from Another World " .


This is arguably Carpenter , Cundey ( dop ) and Bottin ( sfx ) at the top of their game .


And some classic lines to relieve the tension :

" You gotta be BLANK kidding me ! "

" I know you guys are having a hard time but there's no way I'm spending all winter tied to this BLANK couch ! "





" So what are we gonna do now ? " " Let's just sit here and wait " comes the reply .

And whilst we're on old movies, just watched Forbidden Planet (again!) but now in in 4K. Not a startling difference between that and the Bluray, but still one of my favourite movies of all time. Works on many levels, of course.

Re-watched "Warcraft" again. I still like the movie. Never cared for the game.

RESIDENT EVIL ( Zack Cregger ) at my local cinema .

Great fun . Recommended .

Donnie Darko - The Directors Cut



Still very weird... Amazing casting, though. And great music.

My wife is in Europe on holiday and I'm bacheloring for a month. So I'm watching all the films and shows my wife hates, or just wouldn't watch in a pink fit. Last night I settled in and watched the last two Spider-man films. Both very good.

 

[Hobbit]

and a rewatch, before the new 4K version comes out, which I hope to see in a cinema....

Just watched Spider-man: Across the spiderverse. Quite amazing. Seamlessly flows between animation styles so fluidly and always in service of the story. It’s truly a remarkable work of art. Really looking forward to the third one.

I have yet to see Steinfeld in something where I wasn't impressed. True Grit works because she shows the character's strength and feistiness. Bumblebee is a very good faux-'80s s.f./Transformers movie, the charm of which rests on her shoulders. And those were mainly when she was a kid. She could become a mainstay over the next decade.

I just noticed she's the voice of spider-Gwen in Across the spider-verse. Loved her in Hawkeye too. I didn't realise that was her in True Grit.

Last night's movie was A Promising Young Woman. It's a pretty awesome thriller from beginning to end. The end is both a shocker and extremely satisfying in its own way. I'm not going to spoil it but the film had a few good surprises that I really should have seen coming. Very skilfully constructed film. Tonight I think I'll watch The Substance.

Re-watched "Warcraft" again. I still like the movie. Never cared for the game.

There is a Warcraft 2 movie in the works for 2028. It has a one hell of a cast too. Henry Cavill, Sean Bean, Pierce Brosnan, Charlie Hunnam, Denzel Washington, Ron Perlman, Cate Blanchett, Ralph Fiennes, Idris Elba, Milla Jovovich, Elijah Wood & Josh Brolin.

FRIDAY THE 13 th ( Sean Cunningham ) on UK blu ( part of a box containing 7 sequels to this first film from 1980 )

While since I'd seen it . Released during the peak years of the slasher genre .


THE ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN ( Val Guest ) on UK blu from Hammer .

I'm a huge Hammer fan so this was a must buy for me .

The set is packed full of commentaries and other extras , looking forward to working through them .

I've been on a Clive Barker kick this year. So far I've watched:

Hellraiser (1987)
Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988)
Candyman (1992)
Nightbreed (1990)
Lord of Illusions (1995)

I think I'm done with Barker movies now. IMO the Hellraiser franchise really went downhill after Hellraiser 2. I'm moving on to John Carpenter. I've got these queued up:

In the Mouth of Madness (1994) - IMO the best Lovecraft movie even though it is not based on any single story
Halloween (1978)
The Fog (1980)
The Thing (1982)
Christine (1983)
They Live (1988) - Not really horror but I love it
Vampires (1998)

I'll catch the occasional newer movie on Shudder.

On Friday night friends came over and we all watched Dune Parts 1 and 2, in prep for part 3 coming next month. I'd not seem them since they first hit the cinema. I remember being blown away by them then, and we were all super impressed with them, especially back to back, even just watching at home. Made me wish I had fully immersive surround sound and a much bigger screen.

Love The Thing - probably in my top 10 all time movies.

 

[Hobbit]

Just realised that I haven't seen In The Mouth of Madness, (Must look for it!) but the rest IMO are great.

Love The Fog - might make that a Halloween rewatch this year. And The Thing.... another one that got slated when it came out but since has developed a real cult following. I have a soft spot for the original, both black and white and colorised, but I like 1950's SF films. I actually thought the recent version was OK after watching it back to back with the John Carpenter version.

 

[Hobbit]

Can't believe I haven't seen In The Mouth of Madness before! Amazing cast, supremely weird script. Not sure why I haven't seen it before, but now glad I did. Reminds me very much of From Beyond/Re-Animator.

I saw it when it was fairly new and didn't get it. Now that my horizons have been broadened, I need to try it again.
