Bottles

Bizarre film last night - it was a bloody good vampire B-movie with interesting cinematography and a weird moody soundtrack, but right at the end they went a bit too OTT - the surreal lesbian sado-masochism scene was totally unnecessary - it's good to finish a film on a surreal note though... The cHeWtOy review for Curse of the Vampire (can't remember the Spanish name Llamada des Vampiros or Lambada de la Vampiros or somesuch) is a thumbs up if you love cheesy b-movies. I think that bracketed subthought was a bit too long. I have spent far too long saying nothing in particular about a certain email. I am going to try not to mention it again until it arrives. Friday 13th - a date that bodes. The Machine Head cover of Message in a Bottle is pretty good - not experimental enough to be a truly great cover though. The new Hellboy story is off to a good start - not too sure about the demon in the box knowing Hellboy's secret name - he overheard them talking about it in Hell? Why the Hell (whoops, unintentional - honest) would demons share things like that? Even assuming a demon found Hellboy's secret name - Hellboy has a pretty important role in the coming apocalypse, his secret name would be a thing of great power - a demon is hardly likely to share that power with all and sundry. Maybe I just don't understand Mike Mignola's vision of Hell. Backup story was inked by Ryan Sook - I thought he was just a random Mignola clone - but if he is appearing in Hellboy then he must be an authorised clone. Time to see if I have any more really cool comics in this months batch...
