Sore throat, stuffy head shit. It's not so bad right now, but it's only the beginning of it. It's surely going to get worse. I'm sure the day I'm over the sickness is the day I go back to work. Fuckin' hell.

i can agree to the second part, supposing the opening was that different. i didn't see what was originally shot, maybe he did. but i don't think that it was anything just to do with coming out too soon after a re-release of the older films. that i don't really buy.

Dead Men Walk (1943) was just as weak as I remember. Going now for an actual classic, The Most Dangerous Game (1932).

Found footage stuff will always score low with me I can't stand it really. Occasionally a movie is so good I'm able to look past the agitation I get from bouncing flashlights and random distant loud noises but this isn't one of them. What started as a very interesting idea for a film quickly collapsed into typical found footage doo doo

I've counted them before. Like Jiggy said, at least an hour long.

Watching The Blood Splattered Bride.

So far lots of nudity. Cute puffy nipples. Not much else going on though.
