Hey thanks, I'll give one of those Korean films a try. I also noticed that have extremely high IMBD ratings (but whatever, those aren't usualy accurate). Tongue

Google 'movies similar to Sinister' and you'll get a lot of suggestions.

Have you seen The Silence of the Lambs?
Yes I've seen "The Silence of the Lambs". It was a great movie also.

Still life sounds interesting too! Smiley

Still Life (2013)

This is a movie that centers on loneliness and living a passive, uneventful life.
The setting of the story is a bit unusual but simple, so what makes the movie interesting is the exaggerated sensibility of the main character.
The main character is so compassionate and pitiful at the same time that viewers can't help caring about him and wanting to know what happens to him.
The acting from all cast is convincing, the main actor especially did a superb job.
The movie is slow paced but the mood is so nicely built that I didn't feel bored, on the contrary, I was amazed by the small details and the directors' sensitivity.
There are many beautiful still shots of very ordinary things throughout the movie, like the title of the movie suggests.
Some scenes are so pathetically real that they become funny. It is overall a good movie and it makes you want to do something about all the loneliness there is in the world.

Watched Sinister and loved it. Can anyone suggest something similar? I haven't watched any good horrors lately. Sad

Sinister was great, it was gripping from the very start, though I did feel that it could have played out better. Still a great watch, very disturbing at times.

I saw the movie Divirgent yesterday, it was a decent movie.
The world's people where divided in 5 groups, so they didn's had any wars anymore.
And at a certain age, everyone had to choose there group they belonged to.
I dont want to tell everything but you should watch it.

"Pi" (1998) - My favourite art-house work (It's considered a thriller, but i don't think so)

Gary Oldman was underused in it though. Was only in it for 5 minutes  Angry.

I wonder how long he was required for to film those few minutes...

I just watched Lawless not too long ago:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1212450/

I actually really enjoyed it.

Yeah it was pretty good. Great performances apart from Shia Labouf  Cheesy (who was just average). Gary Oldman was underused in it though. Was only in it for 5 minutes  Angry.

I don't think I've seen any movies is a couple of weeks. Might watch one or two over the weekend.

For the past decade or so, Jean Claude van Damme has been starring mostly in crappy movies. But a notable exception was the 2003 movie, In Hell. One of his best movies, to this date.

Have you ever seen the movie The Mist?  Creepy movie, really good though, at least I thought so.

So yeah, thats another movie recommendation.  Anything Stephen King is usually awesome!

Both movies added to my watchlist; thanks for recommending!

The other day I read an article about scientific possibility of a creature as big as Godzilla. In short, there is NONE.

The impossible anatomy of Godzilla:
http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/digital/fact-vs-fiction/the-impossible-anatomy-of-godzilla-16785535

Yep, same reason gigantic insects can't exist - environmental constraints. Here is an interesting study about - http://phys.org/news79804314.html

Basically, giant insects would require a higher oxygen composition in the atmosphere - this is why they were larger in the Dinosaur periods, as the oxygen content of the air was higher.

But of course a movie is a movie, and watching giant monsters wreck our cities and be completely unstoppable is awesome Smiley

That would be crazy though, to see a huge ass spider... we`d be so fucked.
