When the Kitty's away...

...she's usually watching more movies!

I know I've been a bit slack about updating but as I have no followers as yet, I will forgive myself.

I went back to work this week after an extended period of r'n'r so I've been fairly busy. But fear not! My priorities remain intact.

As well as watching a couple of movies to comment on I also caught the following just for fun: the Dark Knight trilogy; We Need to Talk about Kevin (with the superb Tilda Swinton); Predator; Hot Fuzz and Silence of the Lambs.

I'm not reviewing SotL at this time but I do rate Hopkins and Foster in that film if no other. And it always makes me hungry. Is that bad?

No spoilers!!

A little bit more about this personal project. I'm not a critic or a writer (duh, right?) just a fan of the genre who is trying to learn by immersion. I try to approach each film with an open mind so that I can record my real gut reaction. I do my 'research' after watching the movie so I can get a flavour of what other folks are saying and find any interesting tidbits about the film.

I'm trying very hard not to include any spoilers but I'm finding there is a fine line to walk - without some of the gory details these posts will all be the same! It's also extremely difficult not to comment when there is a particular scene or effect which blew my skirt up.

So far I'm loving it. I've seen some diverse films and unearthed two gems I might never have found. I can't wait to see more.

So let's move on to Chapter Two - Zombies!!
