Yeah, THE ROAD is stunning. Also have to say it is genuinely terrifying in places, and the feeling of dread mounts and mounts as you near the end.

The bit when they go into that house, though, eh?

I know Shane Meadows shot to stardom thru this film and I don't particularly want to see 'This is England' but I still consider it because of  Dead Man's Shoes.

had the absolute pleasure of watching "the zombie diaries " on t'dvd last week.
 done a la blair witch via video cam it follows and flits between a few groups of protagonists in a very good (i thought ) way .its british and quite realistic and even though its done on a low budget the fx are well done. i was even surprised to see in the "making of" bit in the extras that all the gunfire muzzle flashes and smoke is CG.

get ye down to blockbusters and check it out.

Link: will this work?

No Surrender.

Alan Beasdale. Bernard Hill. Michael Angelis.

A bunch of octogenarian protestants are (deliberately) double booked with a bunch of likewise decrepit catholics into a run down Liverpool nightclub.

Hilarity ensues. OK, it's bleak, violent, sectarian hilarity, but it's a really fuckin' good movie.

Cheers

You stuck the website address after the 2000ad one. The one below should do the job.

I read 'The Road' over a long journey home and found it really absorbing and bleak. Every time he went rooting about for stuff I was hoping he'd find a big pie or something. I see a movie is in the works with Viggo in the frame for the father.

As for movies an old classic that I find appropriate is 'The Lost Weekend' another relentless tale of woe, this time about an alcoholic. It's funny and sad when he waits for hours to get his bottle out of his checked in coat only for it to smash soon after. He sooo wanted that booze. Very interesting to see the dated attitudes to class, booze and where to hide that all important bottle.
