More De Palma insanity

I picked this up on Friday. Hadn’t seen it before, what a nutty film. It’s a good watch but I’m not convinced it quite works as well as some other De Palma’s, Dressed to Kill is better. It’s a really nasty, mean spirited film though, which does give it an interesting flavour. Just a shame about the plot holes.

Now that’s a classic slice of physical comedy and horror. How does it look?

Fab, lovely transfer. Its just now so pin sharp its really shows up the heavy use of Matte paintings

A leap in AV technology having a mildly negative effect. That reminds me of my mate's dislike of Halloween in hi-def. In the VHS and dvd versions you get a shock when you see Michael Myers stood among the washing in the back garden because you don't initially see him ... but on blu-ray he's just stood there clear as day.

I have a bit of a weird interest in matte paintings in older films. The work that went into them and how effective they are is incredible.

This site has loads of info about this particular technique. The article on Kubrick’s 2001 is fascinating.

I loved the matte painting used for that walkway effect in Indiana jones and the last crusade. So bloody impressive even now.

Thanks for the lookout too mate

Yeah there are good and bad points. Film is still amazing and the quality of the transfer and HDR colour make up for the short comings. I miss the day of the mad 80's horror films

[MENTION=3542]Team Andromeda[/MENTION], I'll be over at about 7:30 and we might be able to squeeze in a double-bill of Chan, Evil Dead II or a Carpenter film.

I don't know if you prefer sweet or savoury snacks so I've got chips 'n' dips and sweet popcorn.

Do I need to take my shoes off?

Maybe I'll hold off on the Chan films and I'll watch Project A with [MENTION=8265]CMcK[/MENTION] next week.
