Love on the Quiet (1985)

Only the French could pull it off

[9/10 · 16 March 2000]

L'Amour en Douce is a French film about a husband and wife who after breaking up with each other, end up living with the wife's boyfriend and the husband's new girlfriend a very expensive call girl.

If you like Emmanuelle Béart you have to see this movie.

Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)

Purfection

[10/10 · 14 March 2000]

My favorite movie of all time. This is the first Video I went out and bought a copy. This will also be the start of my DVD collection..When I get a DVD Player.

On my thankyou list

Francis Ford Coppola -- Thanks for Dracula

Gary Oldman -- The new Dracula Reference.

Anthony Hopkins -- Best Actor.....

Winona Ryder -- Oh Mina ....

No thankyou to

Kneau Reaves -- More woody than Pinocchio

Manon of the Spring (1986)

I loved it what more can I say.

[10/10 · 6 March 2000]

I saw Jean de Florette and then Manon des Sources after more that a few friends suggested I saw it. This is definitely my favourite foreign film series. One day I had a meal with a couple of friends who suggested that we grab a couple of movies for dessert. On their discovery that I had not seen J.D.F. and M.D.S. they Immediately grabbed both. These 2 movies are in my top 10 list of Foreign films. I later showed these 2 movies to a girl friend, who didn't like films with subtitles. She now does not like films with subtitles … With a few exceptions.

P.S. May I take this opportunity to thank Eric and Sue for selecting these movies.

Blade (1998)

Another fantastic Vampire Movie

[10/10 · 25 February 2000]

I went to see Blade on the first day of release . I only see 3 or 4 movies a year at the cinema and I usually only see Horror or Sci-Fi Movies this way. All I can say is it was great to see Vampire/Comic/Horror mixed together in such a seamless way. A group of 6 of us went to see it together and we all gave it a thumbs up. (Bar one.. He wasn't into Vampire movies and he gave it 4/10). Personally I gave it 10/10. But this is definitely my kind of movie.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1992)

The original Buffy..Dead and Buried.

[3/10 · 25 February 2000]

Yes I remember going to a country drive-in to see this movie. Vampire Slayer.So what if it was school holidays. I was not going to miss this. Well sad to say it was a crummy C-Grade. 3/10 ..Years later we got a second installment .Well just as before I had to see it.Groan..I didn't expect the "sequel" to be any different (but wait what a difference time makes ) low and behold my current favorite TV serial was born. I am glad some-one saw promise in this old C-Grade movie.Cause I never would have!

The Fearless Vampire Killers (1967)

A classic in my book

[25 February 2000]

In 5 video stores I frequent, this video can always be found in the classic section . When I think of classic Vampire movies I always think of 2 movies the 1922 classic "Nosferatu the Vampire" and The Fearless Vampire Killers.My favorite part would have to be what twist in the reindeer drawn slay at the end.
