Weekend Video Watching

Writing by blake on Friday, 26 of October , 2007 at 4:45 pm

Now that I’m nearly finally back on my feet after spending post-Sitges under the weather I’m taking some time out this weekend to get caught up on some films I’ve had on video but hadn’t watched yet. I always get asked what films I’m watching of late and so on… so it seemed only natural from time to time to post what I’m actually watching on video. I watch so much stuff that I find it impossible to review or even capsule review everything I go through (especially all the stuff I screen for film festivals). This weekend for me there seems to be a theme of survivalist horror. For “Entourage” I do have to say at a price of nearly $35 it does seem a bit expensive for just 8 episodes (granted what I have watched so far has been highly entertaining).

If you have any films you will be checking out on video over the weekend feel free to post them in the comments or if you have seen any of the below titles please share your thoughts on. I absolutely no idea what I’ll be seeing in theaters this weekend (could the market possibly get more crowded for new titles?) or if I’ll even have time with several interviews and various other work I have to get wrapped up.

One of the Better Pranks

Writing by blake on Friday, 26 of October , 2007 at 10:48 am

Via my friend Rob comes this welcome break from film centric postings.

The guy doing this prank has some serious balls. He would be ripped apart if people caught onto it. Funny though how emotionally people get caught up in sports though. I remember watching a Dallas Mavericks game years ago when some drunken idiot somehow knocked out a TV causing the ire of nearly everyone in the bar. For those few seconds the TV was out you would have thought the world was about to end with all the screams of panic.
