[Romero&Juliet]

Any good, guys?

I'll have it soon and I was wondering if any of you had seen it.. The all too familliar isolated on an island with a mad doctor theme... sigh... sounds like it might be a bit of fun...



thanks!

Do you know more about the plot? I have seen a movie called Screamers - sci-fi/horror that was EXCELLENT and very unusual in it's theme, you had to pay attention to the movie to get it. Great acting, plot, suspense build up, ending, everything - the movie rocked but I Never see it mentioned. I was hoping you were talking about this screamers - ah well :(

The plot about the one Im referring to is confusing to explain, especially without giving much away. I dont have too much of a fantasy sci-fi imagination, so only certain sci-fi appeals to me (READ: SCI-FI THAT CAN BE CONSIDERED HORROR :D) Such as the aliens series and whatnot. Screamers is one of them.

[Romero&Juliet]

oh no, Erin.. I've seen that movie that you're talking about and I remember it pretty good..

this is just another flick of the same name..

I dont know if it's good but I'd like to see it, Where'd ya find it?

[Romero&Juliet]

yep! that's it! thanks for the link, Mike...!!!

they're holding on to it for me at this place called Central collectables downtown.. its incredible.. I've gotten sooo much good stuff there..

It sucks I watched many moons ago becuase of this tagline:

They're men turned inside out! And worse... they're still alive!

Bullshit there are no inside out people in the movie, in fact *********** SPOLIERS ****************************

I beleive the opening sequence was added later or for the vhs release

[edit]

There's a neat 2-disc DVD Widescreen set of SCREAMERS available (region 2 - pal) which includes the original director's cut & SCREAMERS 2. Cool set actually worth tracking down if your a fan of this film.
btw the director's cut does not feature any gore scenes. They were included for the US market only but I guess y'all know that :)

[Romero&Juliet]

yeah, so I've read... apparently it plays like an action flick more than anything, but the opening sequence is a big deal..

Thanks for the feedback, guys! I'll be watching it this evening.

Ok. I liked this movie.


It's not good, I liked the plot. I'm so easily amused.

I liked that hoesay guy or however you spell that name.

So entertaining.
