What film did you watch last night?

Duel, 1971. Stephen Spielberg's debut film. Normal guy (Dennis Weaver) hunted by crazy guy in big truck

I've seen it a few times, if you haven't it's worth a look. Really tense in places.

It's in full on Youtube.
 
Smile 1 and 2

Didn't watch the first one when it came out not sure why guess it just didn't intrigue me. But the 2nd one came available a day or two ago and thought I'd sit down and watch them back to back to get it off my "to watch" list that just grows and grows haha

Great tension, jump scares are anoyying but there wasn't too many to ruin it, first was better than the second didn't like the whole singer/influencer storyline and over use of a mobile phone, just stick with tension and creepy vibes.

Dune, I love that movie. I really like what they've done, I haven't read the books or anything but it's a movie I can watch over and over again.
 
Late Night with the Devil (rented from Apple Store)

A troubled talk show host in the 70s tries to spice up his routine (and improve his ratings) with a Halloween special.

This is mostly presented as a 'real' American late night show with some backstage footage spliced in. As such, it feels more like 'an episode of an anthology show' than a full-on 'film'.

It's pretty good. Nothing heavy going and quite lean at 95 mins... and I couldn't tell where it was going, which is always a big plus.

Worth a watch if you fancy something 'different', spooky and quirky.

7/10
