Have you seen the 70's Spanish horror movie ¿Quién puede matar a un niño? (Who Can Kill a Child?)?
Yeah I saw it recently. Feel pretty much the same but it was refreshing in that the story was somewhat unique. At least for the time.LoathedVermin72 wrote:I have! A strong start and some shocking scenes of child violence, but it becomes kind of a dull slog after a while.

Was actually searching for some sci fi movies that I may not have seen from the 60's or 70's. I happened upon a website about the "50 great movies from the 70's you don't know about" or something like that and it was on there, so I checked it out.LoathedVermin72 wrote:How on earth did you come upon that movie?E.H.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I haven't seen Warcraft yet. I do like Duncan. Source Code was decent and Whistle was pretty good. I haven't seen Mute yet either. Rockwell was phenomenal in Moon, the story was just weak in parts for me.LoathedVermin72 wrote:Of course! I don’t love it as much as a lot of people but it’s solid. I love Rockwell so much.
Do you like Duncan Jones? I think Warcraft is really underrated.
Shit that’s a great question, I’ve never even thought about it. Maybe there’s been a two-week gap in there if I was busy? I really don’t know.96583UP wrote:what is the longest stretch of consecutive days you have gone without watching a movie during the last 10 years?
