Swimming With Sharks (kevin spacey indie flick, very good)

They're making a sequel and prequel for Ginger Snaps. Do yourself a favor and get the Collector's Edition of it. Widescreen, tons of extras and two commentaries.

I'm in Canada, that's the only version we can get up here Woot, go Canadian cinema! Heard about them kicking around ideas for more in that series ever since the first came out. Looked them up on the web site Second one looks like it'll rock, though the third one looks kindda fvcked up. Anyway, thanx for the update on those!

Ah, that just reminded me of another obscure movie! Brotherhood of the Wolf! Very nifty French film. Turns out native americans are better martial artists than orientals. Very cool characters, original setting for the story, really nice FX work and costumes.

The remake of Night of The Living Dead wasn't that bad. It lost a bit of it's scare the sh!t out of you factor with the makeup/effects in it, but still pretty good.

I like it a bit better than the orignal myself. The story runs a bit tighter and the makeup had advanced enough for them to make far more realistic corpses (at least according to director Tom Savini's commentary on the DVD). As for the different ending to the remake, Patricia Tallman's expression there at the end after she returns to the house (you should know the scene I mean) is pure perfection! The look of utter horror about what she finds is GREAT!

Lucky mofo. I ordered the collectors edition last night from dvdsoon.com for $12.63 shipped. Definitely a great deal. Definitely going to check out the two new movies. Never did see Brotherhood of The Wolf although it does look cool. The ending of the remake of NOTLD was pretty damn good too. Love B-horror movies.
