Kubrick Trifecta

So, on the upshot of watching misery I wanted more Stephen King, and I thought what better than one he didn't actually approve of (I wonder if he approved of maximum overdrive?).

No prizes for guessing the first on the bill, The Shining. Katy, you really need to get on this! It's all about Jack and shelly duval's run!

Next up is a bit of a curve ball. Ever heard of a little film called reservoir dogs? So original, so gripping, well yeah it's a remake of a film Kubrick directed in the 50s called the killing, definitely worth a watch.

You're all worried about the last on the list, and rightly so. We all know what I'm going to suggest, mostly because it's been at least ten years since I last saw it, so my nostalgia glasses are in full effect. It's full of weird shit and a docking sequence, and who hasn't had a piece of technology with HAL as a sound effect? That's right, my last on the list is 2001.

Watch one, or watch all 3, give a post then start suggesting some Xmas films please, hoping this post will take us to advent!

Misery

I've decided to pick Misery for the next film as I recently finished reading the book and I really want to watch the film again now. It's been a while since I've seen the film and I can't remember it very well so I'm quite interested to see how different or similar it is to the book. I do remember Kathy Bates being really awesome in it. Enjoy kids ☺️

Ho ho ho, merry Christmas

It's that time of year again, and nearly a whole year since the club started!

When is it too soon to start watching Christmas films? Well, I thought we could get a list going to see when we really need to start.

So, what are your favourites? What are the awful ones we have to watch because it's Christmas (I'm looking at you both Tim Allen and Martin Short).

Break out the sweet sherry and mince pies, have at it!
