# 133 - The Vanishing

 

This was an incredible psychological thriller from a Dutch director that probably would have been more powerful if I hadn't seen the 1993 American Remake and knew the entire plot and ending from the get go - suffice it to say I think this is a better film than the remake.

I guess the Dutch director, George Sluzier,  did the American one too and was TOLD he could make the American version the same way, but departures and broken promises and test audiences changed the ending of the American version.   In any case, this is worth your time if you like that scary stuff

#132 - The Ruling Class

 

man..I am never gonna get those 2.5 hrs back

didn't like this movie - wasn't too impressed by it - sorta hate British Humor and especially cult classics from a British Point of view which generally aren't as entertaining when you aren't aware of what the film is trying to mock due to cultural differences.

I mean, just no freaking way I would watch this again
