Monster, Monster!
posted @8:51 p.m. by Richard Kelly
Hello again reader(s). Wait, though, is that a monster over there? There, behind you!? Or is it a list of ten great movie monsters, recently contributed by Gabriel Featherstone? Phew. The latter. I'm doubly pleased that Gabe has written in, firstly to give the site some action, and secondly because he includes The Thing (1982), and I have been minded at times to make it a prerequisite that any submission to this site include The Thing. That, or The Long Goodbye (1973). Gabe also gets TBDwDN points for including a film with Jenny Agutter, for reasons passim.

New List, New Lister!
posted @7:54 p.m. by Richard Kelly
Let me declare this parliament back in session, for the simple reason that one STEVEN COWIE has sent in a list, and also offered comments on a couple of the previous (see Stephen King and Video Nasties.) Stephen's list of ten is under the heading of FANTASTIC CINEMA, a broad church but a lively one none the less, and right for the night of the year when Jack o' Lanterns are offering their jagged grins all across the (un)civilised world... In advance of Stephen's choices but in relation to his comments thereupon, I will simply say that: 1. I know more than a few movie fans who will only go see New York Trashed By Monster movies in theatres equipped for HEAVY BASS. 2. Darren Aronofsky's new movie is indeed called THE WRESTLER and does indeed star Mickey Rourke. I hope to write about it elsewhere in due course, and hope that one day some obsessive Rourke fan will post a ten to this site...
