Movie: Pan's Labyrinth
« on: January 29, 2007, 08:50:05 AM »
Who's seen it? It may be old news for some of you, but I only heard of it recently in Australia.

Without revealing anything, I found it to be one of the best movies i've seen in an exceedingly long time - it's spendidly twisted and some of the characters in it are very nice.

Anywho - I highly recommend it.

A note: It's subtitled, and it has some very realistic violence, so the squeamish or the illiterate may not want to watch ;)

I loved Pan's Labyrinth as well! In fact I like anything by that director!

Vivid and Twisted!

check out Devil's Backbone too! Not as good, but good nonetheless.

Oh, wow, it's a Guillarmo del Torro movie?  Now I have to see it.

See Cronos as well, a lovely twist on the old Vampire tales.

A skeleton walks into a bar and ask the Bartender: “Do you serve skeletons here?”

Times being what they are the wily Bartender replies: “sure, we serve anyone.”

The skeleton hands the man a silver and says: “Fine, I’ll have a pitcher of beer…and a mop”
