if you want something fresh and hellishly awesome, check this shit it will blow your mind, not hollywood drivel either

THE SIGNAL

I saw this at the festival a few years ago and tbh it didn't particulary blow my mind. It's certainly interesting but nonetheless it's a rehashed plot with pretty avg acting. And also strikes a very similar chord with Stephen Kings novel Cell which came out over a year earlier.

Imho if you are looking for something fresh and hellishly awesome i would recommend pretty much anything by Takashi Miike.

I highly recommend his DOA series - in particular the first 15mins and last 15mins of Part 1, and Part 2. Normal storytelling conventions are thrown out the fucking window.

Also The Happiness of the Katakuris, Ichi the Killer, Audition, Visitor Q (still banned in NZ i think), and Gozu.

read the screen play! way better than the actual film, the tarentino version of the screen play not the stone hack fest

 

Dude.. hackfest? Oliver Stone is awesome. Haven't read the screenplay but sounds like it was pretty much straight forward action movie before Stone came along and made it deep

 

Initially, when producers Jane Hamsher and Don Murphy had first brought the script to Stone's attention, he had seen it as an action movie; "something Arnold Schwarzenegger would be proud of."[6] As the project developed however, incidents such as the O.J. Simpson case, the Menendez brothers case, the Tonya Harding/Nancy Kerrigan incident, the Rodney King incident and the Branch Davidian attack all took place. Stone came to feel that the media was heavily involved in the outcome of all of these cases, and that the media had become an all-pervasive entity which marketed violence and suffering for the good of ratings. As such, he changed the tone of the movie from one of simple action to a satiric critique of the media in general.
