What’s gotten into you?

I've just downloaded the trailers for a couple of new movies from Daves Trailer Page.

The first I've been keeping an eye on for a while. James Gunn's Slither is just the kind of cheesy looking horror film I get excited about. It appears to pay homage to various classic horror pictures (Cronenberg's Shivers being an obvious one) and bears more than a passing resemblance to the great Night of the Creeps. Plus, it's got Nathan Fillion and Michael Rooker in it.

The second, I'd kind of written off. I enjoyed the original Underworld more than I perhaps should have. I expected it to be a stinky, dreadful pile of lycanthrope droppings, but it actually surprised me by being a reasonably entertaining little film. When I heard they were making a sequel (and that they were using the now tedious "it was always intended as part of a trilogy" line) I felt certain that it would suck harder than Kate Beckinsale's character in the first film (she's a vampire, geddit?). I'm genuinely amazed that the trailer looks pretty good. Better than that, it's now on my must see list (even if it does look a little Van Helsing).

If you've got bandwidth to spare, I highly recommend having a look at these two. If not, you really should check Slither out, at least.

    Me and my friend had an arguement about Kate Beckinsale last night, he says she is at least 39 and I think she is in her early 30s. We have been looking for the correct answer and found your blog, could you please tell us her exact age?

    Great blog.

    According to IMDB, the lurvely miss Beckinsale was born on the 26th of July 1973. That would make her 33 this year, by my reckoning. Hope this settles it :)
