10. Martyrs (2008) (Cobrascuntcharmer)

[Matt]

Not even one guess? Geez.

[snuff]

9 is the Ruins?

[presuming ed]

.5 is last house on the left. that's all i've got - keen to hear what i've been missing out on.

liking the blonde girl theme you've got going here matt. very tricky.

[Dick Dynamite]

Psh, I only knew last house.

[Matt]

liking the blonde girl theme you've got going here matt. very tricky.

Shit, so there is. Utterly accidental.

But it does make me think I need to have a 'theme' in there...

Some clues: directors' nationalities include USA, UK, Australia, Sweden, Chile, France and Spain. But all but two of the films are in English.

[cobrascuntcharmer]

10 is martyrs

[Nosebleed]

A guess, but is 1 [REC]? And 3 is Slither.

[Matt]

It's not [REC], but it IS by a Spanish director. Except it's in English. And it's set in the UK.

Oh, and you're dead on with Slither.

[hate and wedges]

is 6. Doomsday?

Whatever it is, i want to see 4.

[hate and wedges]

and 8. is Let The Right One In!!!

[Matt]

I actually suspect you have seen #4...and are probably one of the few people on here who would've. It's my "semi-obscure" one on the list!

[cobrascuntcharmer]

ooo ooo its 4 sante sangre?

[hate and wedges]

its giving me such an english wicker man/ken russell vibe though, although its none of that.
DAMMIT!

still got 2 tho. high five self.

[The Ost]

Number 7 is Dark City.

[Rizzo]

What's 2? I'm sure I've seen it and the image makes me want to see it again. Need a title.
I never do any good in these things...

[Tacotistk]

is it Silent Hill?

[Matt]

Indeed it is!

The last one left is a sequel...

[presuming ed]

Hills Have Eyes 2 came around then didn't it

[Matt]

Haha! It's not quite as bad a film as that...actually, I reckon it's a pretty good follow-up. The girl screaming has an English accent, if that helps.

[presuming ed]

maybe that girl from the start of 28 weeks later?

[FC]

Fuck it is too (I think).



Aidan

[Matt]

Yeah, it is. The actress has the amazing name 'Imogen Poots'.

[presuming ed]

sweet. that one that gets pulled through the wall eh? might be time to watch that film for the second time.

[Matt]

Nah, she's the daughter who survives the whole movie while Begbie hunts her and her brother all over London.

I thought it was a pretty cool sequel - more action-oriented than the first, but also less familiar in that it wasn't elements of Day of the Triffids mashed up with Day of the Dead.

[presuming ed]

oh no shit. she looks older in that still than i thought the daughter was. but yeah; need to see again. also thought was a good sequel. rose byrne, robert carlyle, jeremy renner - all good actors.

[Dixon Cider A.C.]

the thumbs through the eyes bit was pretty fuckin brutal, dunno why that disturbed me so bad

[presuming ed]

anything to do with penetrating the eyeballs/eye sockets seems to strike a nerve imo.

[hate and wedges]

i always thought that bit was so very bladerunner.

and damn i HAVE seen santa sangre! but ages ago and not in proper state of mind...
