    Funny Games  (2008)

    It defiantly had an intensity and tension that you could cut with a knife (no pun intended), but I had lots of problems with it. Mainly the whole "talking to the audience" stuff and the scene with the remote. It always took me out of the film and completely changed the feeling. I don't understand why Haneke did that.

    Forbidden Zone  (1980)

    You should have seen my eyes role when Forbidden Zone started. Seriously, this is really not my kind of movie. Silly, absurd.... wait....f unny?..... clever?... fun? This is what makes a camp film watchable. It must be fun, and Forbidden Zone is nothing but fun. I don't know why I was surprised by how much I enjoyed the music. The Pico & Sepulveda sequence was one of my favorite in the film. I drive on both Pico & Sepulveda almost everyday. It's like watching a movie when they reference your hometown or something like that. Forbidden Zone is also very smart. Maybe not to the casual viewer or someone not willing to give it a chance, but with references from Chaplin to Fleischer Brothers the film should keep cinefiles grinning from beginning to end.
