  1. I can relate to that, Edmilson. The poster for FRIGHT NIGHT did the same for me (far more so than the lacklustre film itself), although I was as old as 10 when I first discovered the film:
  2. While there are plenty of solid, scary movies that I've seen at various points in my life (THE EXORCIST was pretty heavy too, on VHS in the early 90s), only two have been absolute nerve-wreckers - ALIEN, as mentioned, and the US version of THE GRUDGE (seen with a hangover and nerves on the outside).
  3. Yes, as I say in the article, the folksier, "purer" bits are the best. If you like EDM and electronic music, give it a go. It's a great DJ set, the best conceptual score album from a Reznor/Ross production, thanks to Boys Noize.
  4. Generations change, I suppose, but ALIEN is the most scary film I've ever seen (a bit too early, at 10 or so). Xenomorphs haunt me in my actual nightmares to this day. Even if I've seen the film close to 100 times.
  5. Although I've already seen Goldenthal in Ghent years ago, it's a nice addition to the event. Surely another good reason to go, for those (unlike me) who can afford it.
  6. Good sport, your brother! I'm glad I'm not into those things. Film versions or not film versions, I wouldn't know anything about such things unless I was told, nor would I care much.
  7. Reviews on-the-go # 6: https://celluloidtunes.no/reviews-on-the-go-6/ RONJA THE ROBBER'S DAUGHTER (Johan Söderqvist) SUPERSEX (Ralf Hildenbeutel) HOW TO BLOW UP A PIPELINE (Gavin Brivik) NUDES (Rob, Nousdeuxtheband & Paul Sabin) TIME BOMB Y2K (Nathan Micay) CHALLENGERS (Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross)
  8. Don't know if I even want to try such a ranking for my favourite director. I know that JURASSIC PARK is at the top, that goes without saying. Otherwise, films like A.I., RAIDERS, E.T., SCHINDLER, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS, EMPIRE OF THE SUN will vie for the next spots somehow. Meanwhile, at the bottom, it will no doubt be films like 1941 and THE BFG, but there are redeeming qualities in both. They're not bad films, just "less good" in the Spielberg canon. Maybe the last place will go to the über-patriotic and sentimental documentary short A TIMELESS CALL (we still need that Williams score released, though). So no, I won't attempt a ranking, even though I kinda just did.
  9. Yeah, I realized I wasn't following his Facebook page, for some reason. Remedied now.
  10. Whoa, that slipped past me. And here I was talking earlier about the lack of any new Gilmour in recent years. Thanks for the heads-up!
  11. As long as we're sharing Indy collections, here's mine. I have these physically: Additionally, I have these in digital file format: Now if I could only get my old friend Jim Titus to design a slipcover, print it out somehow and BANG!, I have an Indiana Jones box that outshines this new set from Disney in every way.
  12. I have a friend and colleague who has seen PSB double-digit amount of times over the years. Personally, I've never seen them even once. Would definitely like to, but right now, it's complete stop in regards to concerts (unless they're free, or I get accreditation or something, in which case it needs to be film music-related only).
  13. Sounds like a kitchy, but rollicking good time!
  14. Pretty old news, though. The 'cheetos story' came out not that long after the film premiered. Just Lynch being his wacky old self. Love him!
  15. I remember being incredibly disappointed by this album when it came out in 1996. Power ballads and pop, far removed from the proggy stuff I had come to know and love from MMEB. But over time, I've come to appreciate it for what it is. Chris Thompson's soaring vocals, Mann's little interludes, big melodies, guitars aplenty. It would be the last "official" MMEB album.
