I saw Ted Bundy at the edinburgh fest on Friday. I liked it a lot, it was well acted and had loads of fucked up scenes and gore for horror fans. It was a bit similar to American Psycho, but that's a good thing.
Strangely, it was quite funny in places too. There's a bit early on (this is a mild spoiler I suppose) where Bundy gets cold water poured over him that is really funny- wait to you see what context it's in.

You lucky, lucky people...have a good time at the FrightFest, and spare a thought for your ex-pat schmoes Down Under who never get to attend any sort of horror-related event.

Can't wait to see Ted Bundy, but with our luck we won't see it til next Christmas...

I was there too with my friend! Excellent film... my friend was the one that had a coughing fit at one point.

Well Scully if you are going to the screening of Frailty at the filmhouse tommorow- well today now actually, I'm the fat guy, 22, wearing a leather trenchcoat with a shaved head, and I'll probably be in the FH bar before hand. Come say hello, I'll buy you a pint.

With regards to frightfest, from what I have seen at edinburgh I would recommend my little eye whole heartedly, I would say Happiness of the Katakuris is wonderful, but isn't a horror film, so I'm not sure why it's on there, and Dark Water is well, being honest, shite.

Hey bobo - don't have a pic - but just look out for a guy with spikey hair, tall, wearing blue baggy jeans and hackett top and with a short girl, with blonde hair.

OH MY GOD!!! I saw the European premiere of HALLOWEEN: RESURRECTION last night at Fright Fest and gotta say it was superb. Much better than all the pirates I have seen. It had a different score that i liked and the deaths were much better on the big screen. The ending was a complete shocker - totally scary. My rating 9/10.

What did everyone else think

If anyone esle there noticed that just as bust rhymes character said "how do I feel?.......feeel this". two people got up from their seats and walked out. If u did notice that then I was one of them. We had to go catch a train unfortunatley. BTW I loved Frighfest and I though "the eye" is the most scariest film I have ever seen.
