I am All. About. This. Look.
I'm loathe to compare it to something like Warm Bodies or The Returned, but it's more about the trauma suffered by everyone during the Uprising, and the subsequent reintroduction of the 'cured' zombies into society. It's a lot more about the paranoia of living with someone who you know is potentially gonna kill you…
It's really good, quite a different perspective on zombies from the usual. It's much more of a drama than a horror show though, there isn't much gore (or that many actual zomies, per se), and it's genuinely grim in places, but I'd thoroughly recommend it.
Was für ein Kerl!
Vaguely related anecdote: Myself and my two besties went to see Romeo + Juliet for my 13th birthday, and only at the end of the movie did Bestie #1 and I discover that Bestie #2 was completely unaware of the whole play and how it ended. There was uncontrollable sobbing and cries of "but why did they die, they're IN…
The Brig has just made my day...
Slightly different meaning in Scotland, sadly, but it'll still raise a smile...
Hi, I'm Trashy, I'm 5'7", Scottish and a professional cinema wench by trade working for a fairly famous cinema chain in the UK. I'm a die-hard Doctor Who fan (with the body art to prove it!), and am currently getting really into tabletop games. (I blame both my lovely boyfriend Mr. Trash, and also Wil Wheaton.). I…
I served Alice Cooper £8-worth of Pick & Mix when he came in to my cinema, and we proceeded to have a 5-minute chat about 'puggies' (fruit machines, I suppose you'd call them in the States) and why they were the reason for him paying in loose change, before he went into his film.
English, not British, but aye...
Mr. Trash is the spitting image of Nemesis Tom Hardy, to the point where people followed him about for months afterwards asking him for autographs. I therefore find this image hella sexy, regardless of how shockingly bad the film was...
Laughed my ass off when they unveiled it. It's in the artist's display rooms in Brechin now 'cos it got vandalised so many times...
That part was responsible for one of my favourite moments working in my cinema: a random voice from the front row of a deathly silent sold-out screen yelling "Aw naw guys, we're fucked!" as the camera shows you the snow-tornado-thing tat used to be Scotland...
The history is hilariously suspect, the acting is woeful and the accents... oh Gods, the accents. And the bit with the fake horse falling into the loch. And Edinburgh Castle being in a ditch. And there being no bridge at the Battle of Stirling Bridge. It's all terrible, but damnit if I don't get suckered into watching…
I thought that was a bit of a hint too, don't recall Oberyn saying anything like that in the book...?
Redacted 'cos Kinja fail.
