Colin (2008)
More than just a zombie film
I have been lucky enough to see a preview of this film and it really is a VERY good film. Obviously, being a very low budget film it has its technical flaws and in some cases the shaky camera work doesn't quite hit the spot that it was meant to, but none of this can take away from the quality of the story, acting and execution of this film. Marc Price is clearly a very talented director in many ways. He has managed to conjure up a fantastic post zombie world and via our journey we get insights into this world. Along this journey there is plenty of gore and a touch of comedy but most surprisingly there are also a few tears and a lot to think about! There are moments of pure emotion which bought a tear to the eye of many of the people watching the film and this is all bought about by Alistair Kirtons (Colin) great ability to play with your emotion without saying a word and Marc Prices ability to do the same with the world he creates, he uses also uses music to good effect and the soundtrack of this film is very good in this regard. There is so much more to say about this film and the multitude of ideas that is addresses, but I guess half the fun is discovering that for yourself, so lets hope this films gets out there very soon
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)
A great thought provoking film
I love this film, it just has everything.. actually just thinking about it makes me wanna go and watch it again now. Jack acting is superb and really believable. What really grabbed about this film is its almost uplifting quality that makes you want to go out and do something positive, well it did for me anyway! One thing I would say is once you watch this you wont be able to read the book without seeing and hearing jacks character which makes it very difficult to get into, maybe thats just me though.
What more can you say really? I love it and earge anyone to watch it and defy you not to be extremely moved by this great story
