About this Member

Films and gaming are my main vices. If you want to know the best shampoo to use for removing dandruff and giving your hair a fresh shiny feel to it, I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place. However, if you're here to bask in the glory of Evil Dead 2 (best scene of self-mutilation ever filmed) or the strider sequence at the end of Half Life 2: Episode 2 (best jaw-dropping moment of any game ever), then you might find some of the guff I've written below to your liking.

Clowny currently compels you to watch the following:

The Ice Pirates - Why? It has camp robots kicking each other in the nuts. Genius? I'll say!
Planet Terror - The most fun you will probably have on DVD this year. Dementedly stupid stuff, but so bloody entertaining.
Dead Man's Shoes - The best British film of the last 10 years, and shows that a vengeance movie can be both complex and thought-provoking.
Ran - Kurosawa does King Lear Japanese clan style crafting one of the most beautiful movies ever shot. Probably the best adaptation of Shakespeare's material yet...

And many thanks to everyone who nominated my review on The Pirates! in an Adventure with Scientists for a crown, which helped it to win dooyoo's March 2007 book review competition! Much appreciated!
