Oh, I forgot....

'The Lovely Bones'.

Hmmmm......kind of like Peter Jackson was trying to make something akin to his earlier (brilliant) 'Heavenly Creatures', but combining grisly murder and fantasy is clearly a hard thing to pull off.....and I don't quite think he managed it convincingly here. Also, there's far too much CGI. Which would be acceptable if it was good, but it's not.


'The Hills Have Eyes II'

Like the "first" one, it actually starts off pretty good and goes poo. But this one goes MUCH pooer MUCH quicker. Surprising, considering Wes Craven actually wrote this one......oh, no it's not, Wes Craven is balls.


'Triangle'.

I didn't like 'Creep' at all, so I thought this would be more of the same. In actual fact, it's an interesting, competently made brainbumming (with the occasional skirt into 'Mulholland Drive', 'Lost Highway' and 'Twilight Zone' territory). Only really let down by some duff CGI, the fact my brain wasn't bummed as much as I would've liked given the potential of the material, a pretty unsatisfying conclusion and Melissa George's odd permanent fish-like expression.
