YEs the novel was the main inspration, but Tim has said that it wass Disney's Adventures of Ichabod that helped him design the visuals for his movie, and the scene byt he covered bridge, etc. . .
I have never seen Wallace and Gromit, pretty good? I think if I go to a theater it will have to be Saw II, loved the first one. Jigsaw seems to be the best horror villian since Hannibal!
i didn't like saw but wallace & gromit was great. damn well done and lots of allusions to movies (also, for example, "Sleepy Hollow").
Tonight at my local bar thay are haveing a cstume contest and I was going to go as a hula girl but now I am sick so Im staying home and poping cold pills all night.
ah, forgot about another great one. Roman Polanski's "The Fearless Vampire Killers", aka "Dance of the Vampires".
great movie. despite the fact that it is about 40 years old, it still features a kind of humor that is almost timeless - no great jokes but over the whole time very amusing. nice setting, great actors, a truly great one and by the way the only vampire movie i really like.
Went and saw Saw II last night after foot ball fun, The Eagles really stink, I mean the Broncos, can't beat the Giants (who look really good) and they almost lost the game yesterday after a 4 td lead, they just gave up! Oh Well, I hope the Steelers beat the hell oout of the Ravens tonight! But I did see SawII last night, and of course all the experts said that it was no where as good as the first, but I really enjoyed it, and they left the total, F-U ending, no real clousre liek they want to make more, I hope not, but at least the 70's had Halloween, the 80s had Friday the 13th and Nightmare, and 90's had Scream, and now the 00 have Saw, a good two movies!
I liked it, hate to admit it, anything that makes me feel even the least bit uncomfortable, must be pretty sick, and i have to admit, I squirmed once or twice!
