@thegarthgoodviewshow I just got Conan The Destroyer on BD yesterday from the same friend, can't wait to do a double feature in the coming weeks, should be epic! The lady & I are really looking forward to watching Firefly and subsequently Serienty, I believe it'll be on the cards shortly. Thanks for the kind comments, Garth :) Looking forward to your next update, bring it on.

Ah the old books being made into movies. I was a Dr Suess fan meself but hated The Grinch lol. I don't suppose they'll ever do a movie of Little Black Sambo. When the girl's away, you could colour in the WTWTA book!

Poor old Magna Pacific, they release such shite things. Mind you I still pick them up :) Nice mix of titles.

@AussieRoadshow Haha...I'm still laughing about the 'Little Black Sambo' comment :) I didn't see 'The Grinch' but I did see 'Cat In The Hat' and that was a hard watch, nailed stylistically but it was boring.

Some of those old Magan Pacific titles were great as they'd be the only version of the film available anywhere in the world on DVD at the time and some still to date. Their later titles' quality really improved but unfortunately these days they're just releasing documentary and reality TV

Far out I so got to get the Tenebrae blu. The budgie in teh background agrees!

Never seen The Rage disc before. "Megadose of pure terror" sounds good. Long Weekend used to be a fiver at Top End. Horseman is pretty tough, although quite a lot is atmospheric as opposed to on-screen violence. I'm glad we're making these sorts of movies again. Did you see Snowtown?

Frozen was great, slow to start though builds up. The freezing skin on their faces really freaked me!!

[CarryTheZero1980]

@AussieRoadshow It's a worthy upgrade, Koopa lost her shit over that menu, I know as I cleaned her cage afterward!

I say avoid 'The Rage' at all costs, watched it over the weekend and it was awful, it bordered on being so bad that it was good but ultimately it was just bad.

I enjoyed 'The Horseman', nothing groundbreaking but I always like a decent revenge film so it filled the void for now and the fact that it was Australian made me proud.

[CarryTheZero1980]

@AussieRoadshow I caught 'Snowtown' at the movies and was underwhelmed, a little too sensationalist in the shock value for me in the sex and violence stakes.

Yeah, I found 'Frozen' to be genuinely frightening and suspensful as I could see myself in a sceneio like that in Falls Creek.

[CarryTheZero1980]

@the13thwolfman I'm keen to see 'Hatchet 2', been hanging for that one for a while and figured I'd pick it up when the BD went cheap but it hasn't dropped much yet. Have you see it?

[the13thwolfman]

Wow! There are a bit of good movies that you got. That Conan film looks good. Frozen rocks as a movie I loved it, very well done. If you like Adam green films then you will enjy this one.

[IGoldenThroatI]

@CarryTheZero1980 Thanks man, and I'm really glad to be back! And yeah, thinking I'll give it a watch tomorrow acutally, and I think I'll upload a vid reviewing it afterwards.

Yeah, that makes complete sense. It really was fucking brutal - definitely one I won't be able to watch again in a hurry haha, but I really loved it.
