In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
they just made such a hash of 3, I would love somebody to remake it.
Paul Verhoeven.
Oh FFS, they are doing a remake of American Werewolf in London.
That is not the worst, Grinner. Rumour has it that there is a remake of Big Trouble In Little China in the works.
...produced by and featuring Dwayne Johnson, and no I am not kidding. Really wish I was though.
Slow death should ensue for that.
American Werewolf could work , better CGI and all that , it could work !! but BTILC just no that is a classic that should not be messed with.
Effects in American Werewolf are some of the finest in the history of film media. Iconic, and still looking great. They may CGI them in remake, but it won't look as good, I'm sure.
Stan Winston, Rick Baker and Rob Bottin, true giants of horror. (and else)
The Howling effects and film as a whole kind of got eclipsed by American WW in Lahndahn. Jenny Agutter's tits helped bigly.
Is he going to play Kurt Russell's role?
I reckon, since he will be producing it and all he probably will have the lead. Can you imagine, from produced by Carpenter and starring Russel to produced by Du-waaayne Johnson and starring the same..ffs
The best horror movie ever made is The Exorcist. Nothing comes close except maybe The Shining for me.
The Thing says hello.
It's just personal preference for the source material that I still prefer The Exorcist. I find Reagan's story much more gripping. And of course, I don't think there's a more shocking scene in cinema history than the crucifix and head-spinning scenes, and the language in them.
Yeah it would be my favourite too
Rumours are that it will be directed by the son of Jon Landis. That has made me feel a bit better about this news. If they stick with practical effects and minimise the CGI then it could be decent.
Just saw this again ffs
I just watched Feast again. it's great fun. Monster cock stuck in the door!
That's brilliant
I ended up watching it, I don't recommend it to anyone else, it's just so wrong.
Watched that the other day and yeah I agree it was decent.
The horror genre is pretty atrocious these days.
"It Follows" was great. Maika Monroe is quite nice and I liked the whole 80s sound and atmosphere.
There have been many good horror films over the last few years:
It Follows
The Babadook
The Last Shift
Hush
The Invitation
Starry Eyes
The Canal
We Are Still Here
Lights Out
The Conjuring
It Follows
The Babadook
The Last Shift
Hush
The Invitation
Starry Eyes
The Canal
We Are Still Here
Lights Out
The Conjuring
Haven't seen half of those. Will check them out. Wouldn't class The Invitation as horror? The Babadook was great.
I guess Invitation might not be but I'm sure all horror fans would love it.
More of a thriller really
Its very good and worth a watch whatever it is though

Watched The last shift, lights out and starry eyes tonight, all worth a watch.
Which is the best fim on DS's list though, folks?
Have any of you guys seen the Netflix original 'I AM the pretty thing that lives in the house'?

I'm leaving out all other zombiesque films like Evil Dead 1 and 2, Dawn of the Dead, Zombi ect...I love them but maybe too much humour for some. Same goes for Vampire themed films like Near Dark or The Lost boys. Crossed genres maybe like Predator/The Terminator are not included because in my opinion they branch off also, Sci Fi/Action ect. I'm aware that Rosemary's Baby, Scream, Hellraiser and some others are not listed, it's just my preference. In my opinion the golden age of Horror was the 1970's. It's my favourite decade of cinema. We will never get that amazing time back, they pumped out one after another. The true masters of cinema rose from that time period. They were given more creative freedom and new ideas and concepts were explored. Horror was taken out of ancient castles, it came back with no boundaries. I still have great appreciation for Price, Lee and Cushing though.
People may argue that some films I listed are maybe more psychological thrillers too. It's just my interpretation in the end. I really wish they would stop remaking classic films too. I have a few adaptations listed but it's a completely different take. An example would be John Carpenter's The Thing, it's completely different from original. A take or adaptation of the book 'Who goes there?'. Nosferatu and the 1979 version, completely different in tone and setting. Invasion of the body snatcher's 1956 is rubbish in my opinion compared to Kaufman's late 70's take. Yeah and Feck Saw and Paranormal activity 19 or whatever number there on now. I don't care how much that franchise took in, an average idea that spawned average sequels. The only good thing it done was give an opening to others within the genre. Anyway, enough ranting, enjoy caf.

Probably It Follows due to how unique it is...
Lights out was crap, of the rest I've only seen Babadook and The conjuring and I really enjoy them. Gonna give the Invitation and It follows a go tonight.
Watched 'It Follows' last night, easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Explains nothing to you, you're basically being stalked by the slowest killer of all time.
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre was better than I expected. A nice blend of backwoods Ed Gein America and 1970's Terrence Malick Texas.
I might just keep up this horror streak I'm on, I've got my sights on Profondo Rosso and Trouble Every Day.

I liked that aspect of it, film makers are too intent on explaining every last detail of exactly what is going on. Too much exposition takes away some of the tension.
I liked the soundtrack.
I think it's a marmite film. I personally think it's one of the best horror films of the modern era.
Have you seen The Orphanage?
