Love this film.
What film did you watch last night?

- Start date
I'm off to see this at my local Everyman tonight. Can't wait. I have seen it so many times but I can't remember whether I've ever seen it at the cinema.
I haven't seen this, but there is also the 1977 version starring Burt Lancaster and Michael York. It has a bit higher rating on IMDB than the modern one.

New Mario film with my 11 year old nephew, I really enjoyed it there were so many nods to all the video games over the years.

Nobody. Really enjoyed it. I do like a bit of mindless violence.
It's well worth it on the big screen. Noticed so many things I didn't before. Must see imo.
Commissario
It's taken a couple of days but I've just finished Clive Barkers "Night Breed".
It was actually the directors cut which apparently changes the story a lot, adding about 20 minutes to the run but also using about 25 minutes of alternate footage.
I have vague memories of watching it years ago, and from what I recall of that the Directors edition is considerably better and more coherent, the monsters came across as much more human than many of the humans, and some of the effects and make up were really good.
It's left me wanting to try and watch more of his films now

One of my all time fav films of his, check out the other movies written by David Ayer, they have similar themes, highly recommend the following:
End of Watch
Harsh Times
Sabotage

Antman 3 quantum mania.. 4/10
Jeez that was the worst marvel movie yet actually on par with Black Panther for me.
Not a single good character, the humour was worse that usual .I absolutely stopped caring about any of these characters within minutes. Zero stakes non stop CGI everything boredom.

Yes, was awful, though I think the Eternals was even worse. Marvel really have **** the bed over the last few years.

Honeymoon
A newlywed couple finds their lake-country honeymoon descend into chaos after Paul finds Bea wandering and disoriented in the middle of the night.
Very decent! A solid 6.5. Both leads are brilliant.

I used to love reading CB's books as a kid many years ago:
The Thief of Always
Weaveworld
The Great And Secret Show
Imajica
Cabal
Don't know how they stand up today, but back then i was captivated by Barkers writing and vision.

AKA on Netflix might just be the film for you.
Us - 6/10
Didn't click with me the second time but I guess a lot of the tension is ruined when you know what happens next. And having put it on for my other half (she'd not seen it), I had to put up with her nodding off every 10mins out of the corner of my vision
To be fair it was a lot more freaky than I remembered.
It's still a good film, but I think probably Get Out > Nope > Us for the Jordan Peele trilogy. I'll try to rewatch Nope this weekend to confirm.

Renfield - 7/10
Didn’t really know what this was about other than Nic Cage is in it as Dracula. Enjoyed it a fair bit. The actors all play their part well and the over the top violence and deaths make it a fun horror film.
