See, I'd put Dennou Coil above all three of those.

Guardian of the Spirit.......anyone?

Dennou Coil is very very good and very cerebral but also fun. It's one of those "Makes you think" shows. |
Lain is good, but as someone who's seen both, I still prefer E7.

1408 on TV afew minutes ago, but I had already seen it last year.That film absurdly upsets my mind and gives me a weird sensation of inner stillness.

"Please use our express check-out system" |

I found 1408 to be a complete wank of shite.
|
I liked it... I don't think I found it scary though. I don't remember. But I felt bad for that guy.. And that room was very evil!! And mean.

La Haine (aka "Hate"). Very powerful and very true to what goes on in European suburbs. One of the best foreign films I have seen.
|
I saw 1408 on TV a few weeks ago and I must say I did like the story, though just having to start from scratch after the hour has passed was kind of a bummer, and I would have liked to have some background about why the room became evil or whatever, but a good movie non the less.

Sort of tired of the ghost/horror/haunted movies where the reason for the haunt is some sort of stretched out, long-drawn, melodramatic reason. I like that in this film the room is just evil, and that's about it. EDIT: Oh and I like the fact the the room had a sense of humor... |
I sort of got that feeling at the end of Grudge 2 and Darkness. To know that an elusive and unstoppable evil has just been unleashed on the whole world.
|
:
|
Darkess, yes, sort of.
Grudge 2, meh. Just felt like it was milking the intensity of the first Grudge. |
I saw Knowing yesterday. I didn't hate it. It kept me interested.
I also saw Outlander. Which is basically Beowulf meets Alien, but not as good at all. I wish he got his gun back. I really do. I liked Ron Perlman and Jon Hurt, though. :

You know, like a Jehova's Witness pamphlet. |
Koontz is right up there with the author of The Hungry Caterpillar and Ann Coulter.
I just read a riveting pamphlet about enlarged prostates. It's titled "Bigger Isn't Always Better". It's quite possibly the best piece of literature ever produced, even moreso than the greatest piece of fiction of the same genre; The Catcher in the Rye. |
I have just seen this:
*Wack*, *Wack*, *Wack* |
Paranormal Activity.
OH GOD IT WAS SO FUCKING GOOD LIKE POLTERGIESTXBLAIR WITCH X 10000 |
I saw Monsters vs. Aliens last night.

But then again I watched it without sound over someone's shoulder in the school computer lab so hmm. |
It's one of those films where atmosphere is more than everything.
