Bonfire battles on Dublin's streets

Thought youd get a kick outta this..this is my neighborhood around halloween..these are kids, oldest about 17..they get violent if you're carrying wood..as i do home from the markets to make stuff..

Ive ran into this sorta shit a few times n can only be thankful I have a hammer, crowbar and lumphammer with me when i do..theyre little scumbag bastards and become the extreme versions of themselves around Halloween.

post apocolyptic but now.

I have not. Did you recommended that one before? I was actually trying to remember one you mentioned a while ago.

Yeah I liked it. Not too long and the story and visuals are decent. By the way, I still get haunted once in a while by "The Divide". :/

I saw A Boy And His Dog on network tv when I was like 8 and thought it sucked, expecting it to be more like Road Warrior.

Decided to watch it again because I keep hearing about it, and it turns out that it still sucks.

Don Johnson is uniquely annoying in this.

I did appreciate the influence on Fallout, though, and the dark joke at the end was great. Did not pick up on that when I was 8.

I'm not going to say that I like or enjoy A Boy and His Dog, but I do appreciate how batshit and unapologetically cruel it is. Few movies have the cajones to really be unapologetically cruel

True.

I'm triggered a bit by all the scenes with Johnson screaming at a bewildered dog.

I recently watched "These Final Hours" on Shudder and it was excellent
