Guest Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Gah... erm... I'm busy with work... and stuff... I mean... yeah. Erm... *shifty glances*Wouldn't that mean that Scott would have to be killed in a car crash first? I don't think I like that idea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 have you seen the film?well... no. But I have seen trailers, read a few articles and seen a few "preview" programs on it.Looks shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You haven't told me how it is good.If that's the case, you really shouldn't see the Wedding Crashers either, because that's pretty terrible, despite the reasons it shouldn't be (ie good cast including Vaugh, Wilson and Walken). A couple of funny moments, but a terrible, terrible script and WAY too long...Didn't go into The Descent with too high expectations, but was very impressed, another good low(ish)-budget from Neil Marshall, and for someone who doesn't get scared during movies, there was still a couple of moments when I just thought 'Jesus!' Plus I think they had the look of the creature just right for being pretty freaky; and despite the fact she was supposed to be a bitch, I loved the Juno character, even to the extent where I hoped the encounter with the blonde ex-mother at the end would go the other way around...

I was praying the wedding crashers would be good (being a fan of the cast I was delighted to hear it was coming out) but I may give it a miss. Probably edge my other half to go see the descent (he has yet to see it) and then stare at the creatures some more - considering i mostly viewed them from between my fingers. I hope when the DVD comes out there will be some fantastic special features. I want to learn more about the creatures.I also favoured Juno over the blonde widow - the blonde widow was extremely irritating until she fell into the pit of blood... and seems to emerge as being better - I was pissed off with the result of their confrontation at the end, it just seemed a bit childish for the situation.

Afro Droid Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 I'd be happy to live the rest of life without another film with "flying martial arts"... If KFH is anything like Stephen Chow's other film, the utterly magnificient 'Shoalin Soccer', it's definitley NOTHING LIKE your bog-standard airy-fairy flying martial arts movie.

Alkaline Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 There was enough of the comedy element in KFH to make up for the Crouching Tiger style martial arts nonsense. I actually thought The Wedding Crashers was pretty funny as well. There were some brilliant one-liners and Isla Fisher and Vince Vaughn were fucking hilarious together on-screen. Christopher Walken was a bit of a disappointment tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(then bites the girl's friggin' neck in a heartbeat).Almost shat myself.Yes!!! Me too! That bit was fucking terrifying!!! I think the film itself was so scary due to the fact it was set in a cave, had it been set in a forrest it would have been as scary as Scream. The idea of going down into a cave like that scares the shit out of me anyway, throw in some crazy women and flesh eating, ex-human, blind, bald salivating mutants that can hang from walls and scream like banshees and well, shitting bricks I believe is the appropriate term.Swear to god, I have never spent so much time looking into a popcorn tub.However, I did manage to get passed my terror enought to notice that the graphics were pretty poor!

Demon Of The Fall Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 i just saw it, it was alright. i didnt find it scary at all but i did jump once or twice. overall...not bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachie Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Does it make me a horrible person that I just about pissed myself laughing during the ice pick "accident"?I enjoyed that film.

Spoonie Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 it's shit scary. the bit with the ice pick through her friend was one of those moments where you know it's gonna happen and it just makes you wish she'd paused.the bats flying out of the cave is tremendous. sheer comedy!i liked the little nods to 'carrie' as well, with the bload soaked woman and the hand coming out of the ground and stuff.and as for wedding crashers, it's tremendous!!! seen it twice and still laughed as hard the second time. the bit where he goes to visit chaz is fantastic!!spoons /x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bluesxman Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 Finally got round to seeing it on Saturday evening. Twas OK, shite ending.Really wish the beastie things were in the cinema and latched onto the sounds of the couple sitting along from me who talked all the way through. Could have done with seeing their jugulars being torn out.Why pay 6.20 to speak through a film? I'm really being put off the cinema now, EVERY time we go there is some nadsack sitting nearby talking/kicking seats/generally being a fucktoad.

I think an attendant type should be siting inside the cinema like they used to to ask for quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
