Did you know that Newark is the only town that's an anagram of Wanker!!

Just a piece of useless information.

But the word doesn't mean anything in Luxembourg. It has to be an English speaking country.

Oh mate, I could kiss you (but I won't) - have been looking forward to this one! :thumb:

Well, was truly looking forward to this and finally got around to watching the download..... Won't go as far as saying total shite, but let's just say very, very disappointed.... :(

Old was a little bizarre but worth a watch.

Free Guy was superb, loved this one being a gamer myself.

Best I've seen recently is Cry Macho, slow starter but a good story, made even better by Dirty Harry himself. Doesn't get great reviews, but I enjoyed it (I still hate roosters though).

The Last (Lawst) Inn.
If you're into horror, I'd definitely recommend this one. Quite a twist on the usual ghost stories.
See if you can work out the ending before it happens. I got it wrong.

I can find variations of the title, but can't find any downloads. What is the actual title please, and where did you find it?

Thanks HHTel - that's where I was going, but was getting virus warnings. For some reason, no warning with your link :?

It's on it's way down.

Just had a day of old school hacking, slashing, bashing Michael Myers fun! Began with Halloween (1978) followed by Halloween (2018) finishing with the one released yesterday or today, Halloween Kills. Easy watching, gore galore. :D

The last two are part of a trilogy (Halloween Ends to be released next year) so you'll need to watch the 2018 one to follow what's going on in Halloween Kills. The story continues on from where the first ended.

Won't win any awards but if you're into your gory slashers it'll do for popcorn stuff.

Oh, not on yts yet. Loads of copies available on pirate bay.

:cheers:

Weeeell, I'm not sorry I watched it, but I have to confess I had a bit of a hard time accepting that at 90, Clint could still break horses and pull women. You may well hate roosters, buksi, but for me he was undoubtedly the star of the show! :laugh: :laugh:

A decade on from the last solo batman movie, the trailer for the new reboot has dropped. 4th March release date. Cinematography looks great. Batman fits neo-noir like a glove. :D
