RE: Last film you watched
Mad Max(1979) The leather clad policeman of the the title battles violent motorcycle gangs in a lawless future Australia. Mel Gibson excels in the title role, sympathetic and likeable despite the violence, a brooding often strong, silent type who gets more intense as the film reaches the end. In my opinion, better than Tom Hardy's take on it. Director George Miller makes good use of the Australian country and the music is skilfully used. Miller must also take credit for breaking the action/violent scenes with quiet ones, this works well. A pretty good, witty at times script too. Also starring Joanne Samuel,Hugh Keays-Byrne(an excellent villain), Steve Bisley, Tim Burns,Sheila Florance & Roger Ward 7.5/10

The Vampire(1957)
John Beal stars as Dr.Paul Beecher,a small town doctor who becomes dependant on the pills from another doctor's research with vampire bats.Paul Landres's film could be a cautionary tale about the horrors of drug addiction but its more of an average B monster movie.
5/10

Dead Birds(2005)
At the height of the American Civil War a small band of soldiers in strung out shape seek refuge at a seemingly abandoned plantation.Decension in the ranks becomes apararant but the soldiers find their troubles are only just beginning as supernatural forces start to dwindle their numbers.A solid effort with a good performance from Michael Shannon.
7/10

Silverado(1985)
A spirited and star studded western with Kevin Kline,Scott Glenn,Danny Glover and Kevin Costner.Four men unwittingly become allies when their path's cross after they return to the town of Silverado where their families and friends live.Only to find it now being ran by a corrupt sheriff with a murderous band of guns for hire.Written,produced and directed by Lawrence kasdan,the film is enjoyable and exciting but not as deep or engaging as Clint Eastwood's Pale Rider,released in the same year.
7/10
