I watched a horror/scifi last night:
The Block island Sound
.

It was... ok. Pretty slow but I don't mind that if there's enough to keep me intrigued and it just about managed it.

One thing I didn't like was the overuse of loud and dramatic music to attempt to make otherwise mundane scenes seem scary... and to make it worse, all the music was a ripoff of the Hereditary soundtrack.

As I said though, not bad and if you like a slow burner it's pretty interesting.

I watched Manchester United get knocked out of the FA Cup :(

Followed it with one of those films I've been meaning to watch for ages but never got round to it:
The Girl on The Train
(2016) (Emily Blunt).

A really good thriller with lots of twists and turns.

The surprisingly good first part of a documentary, " Neanderthals: Meet Your Ancestors ", presented by palaeoanthropologist Ella Al-Shamahi and involving actor Andy Serkis in the reconstruction of the life of our ancient forebears.

Lots of intelligent contributions from leading scholars of the Neanderthals, meaning it avoided most of the classic (and incorrect) tropes about them.

I started watching
Devil's Diary
(2007) last night, it sounded like a decent horror but I soon realised that absolutely everything in it had pretty much been lifted from other films.

Yeah... I know that a lot of films "borrow" from elsewhere but this wasn't even interesting enough to make up for it.

Teenage kids find book that they really shouldn't meddle with (The Evil Dead ), get revenge on the stereotypical arrogant "popular kids" ( Heathers and many others). A large chunk of the plot was also a ripoff of Death Note .

Started watching the second season of Dead Pixels. It's about geeks who play a computer game hehehhe.

Season 2, episode 1 even had runescape mentioned in the game they play. Episode 2 mentions RS also :O

It's ok, but not what I would say is a good representation of gamers overall? But maybe thats just my opinion ;)

Remember Caz. Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
