    Ti West's follow-up to The House of the Devil, and the belated sequel to the Rowan Atkinson-starring James Bond spoof from the mid-90s.

    Wiki said it came out in 2003.
    Haven't seen the sequel yet, but I saw the first in the theater and liked it.

    Really?! Whoops!

    Better go and correct that - I could have sworn it was from the mid 1990s!

    Almost Human (Umberto Lenzi, 1974) DVD Review:
    http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2012/...-1974-dvd.html

    A solid poliziotteschi crime thriller from the director of Cannibal Ferox and Nightmare City, and the writer of The Strange Vice of Mrs Wardh.

    Final Destination 5:
    http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2012/...bill-mini.html

    Is the fourth sequel worth a watch? As it turns out, yes.

    Damn, Laura Belli was beautiful in Almost Human!

    Skyfall, Crazy Stupid Love, and Haywire:
    http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2012/...ond-loves.html

    Bond's fantastic 50th, a romcom featuring knob gags and the fit-as-fook Emma Stone, and some old pish by Steven Soderbergh...

    Emma Stone was, as you say, 'fit' as hell in that film. Even better was some of the soundtrack. Blood by the Middle East, for instance, which was featured in the final scene, is an incredible song.

    My Dear Killer (Tonino Valerii, 1972) DVD Review:
    http://forum.homepageofthedead.com/s...r&goto=newpost

    An Italian giallo flick for fans of decapitation-by-dredger and shed-loads of shots of leather-gloved-hands getting up to no good.

    - - - Updated - - -

    The Cabin in the Woods, and Straw Dogs (2011):
    http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2012/...oods-dogs.html

    Goddard & Whedon's enjoyable love/hate letter for the horror genre, and yet another pointless remake, which features a really blunt scene in which James Marsden has to explain the title.

    Kill List, Texas Killing Fields, Tower Heist, and Submarine:
    http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2012/...ngs-lists.html

    1) White collar assassins go up against culty weirdness in rural England.
    2) From the daughter of Michael Mann: impenetrable and mumbled Texan accents and lots of mood.
    3) Glossy and unmemorable crime caper from Brett-bloody-Ratner.
    4) An intermittently pretentious tale of young love in a Welsh seaside town (circa 1986) directed by Richard (Moss from The IT Crowd) Ayoade.

    In Time:
    http://deadshed.blogspot.co.uk/2012/...e-seen-in.html

    The most idiotic movie I've seen in years - it's filled with plot holes you could navigate a cruis ship through - it's stunning just how stupid this movie is. Read on to find out why (lots of plot spoilers ahead, but I wouldn't recommend seeing this movie and wasting your own time on it anyway, so don't mind that).

    Not even Olivia Wilde could save it? I could stare at the woman for hours and not give a damn about plot.

    She's the best thing about/in the movie ... but she ain't in it for long.

    But oh my, In Time is such a turkey ... and yet it made something like $173m.

    Yeah, but only $37.5 million of that here. Yeah, it made its money worldwide, and probably did a little more damage on dvd and beyond, but if there's a next one, which I hope there's not, then I'm guessing it'd be straight to dvd, or some kind of Sci Fi Channel crap.
    I saw it, but at least I only paid discount prices. And since it didn't leave a lasting impression, then I guess it sucked pretty bad.

    Yeah, saw In Time and thought it had an okay enough premise, a good cast, but the script...ick.
