bunny chow - 3.5/5
i can't imagine what this must be like for international audiences, but i found it highly enjoyable because i can relate to it a lot, even though i'm a 'capetonian' and these guys are 'joburgers'. we live far apart, but the similarities are there. the acting is kind of silly in places but that's okay, because the movie is generally quite improvised. i dig the muslim guy, he's really classic.

Dog Soldiers, B-movie bliss, lots of fun and it even managed to make me feel nauseous at one part. I like that. 4/5 I learned that Sean Pertwee does the voice of Hahka from Killzone.

I fell asleep for most of it but what I did see merits 2 stars.
Bonus half star for ending. Not for having an ending - just for finishing.

· Valley Girl (1983) 4½. Aimless film about a Valley Girl who falls for "punk" Nicolas Cage who, as per usual, is wooden. It's like, total barf dude!
· Robo Vampire (1988) 1½. & that's being very generous.

It has the worst dubbing I've ever seen.. someone mouths a 'B' sound, yet an 'S' sound is heard... and for jumping Chinese Vampires, I prefer The Oracle, which is a damn fine film!

Usually it consists of me standing in front of my collexion for ½ and hour, scanning and re-scanning until finally I choose one to watch... otherwise it's the film I've just bought/D.L.ed which makes the process easier.

Der Untergang, 7/10. It's good but I spend too much time watching WWII stuff on History Television, this didn't do much for me, despite its excellence of execution.

He-he, that's not bad--obviously I rested on my laurels after punning Part I of the 2-part name, and did not have the forethought to experiment with Part The Second to see if improvements could be made. Shame on me!
