Grave of the Fireflies 8/10

Heartbreaking stuff.

Creed 6/10

Bungalow - 8/10

Just caught ‘You Were Never Really Here’. It was.... fine? Great score, well shot, great acting but don’t expect anything exciting. This is a *super* art house film and it drags ass at parts. 6/10. Definitely didn’t meet my expectations and I must admit I don’t really get the praise.

Brainstorm
I liked it better than most. In the right mood 8/10
Chemistry between leads Natalie Wood and Christopher Walken lifts it.

A Quiet Place - 6.5/10

DAY OF THE TRIFFIDS 1962--a familiar film from books and tv watching in the 70s and 80s but hadnt seen in ages. Got curious when people said 28 Days Later had borrowed ideas from it.  Can't comment on the book and how much is differs, but I see they took out one interesting subplot involving the seeing people being chained to the blind.   9/10.

FACE OF TERROR 1962 --Fernando Rey is a plastic surgeon who cures a disfigured woman he later learns is an escaped mental patient. Pretty good I thought--more melodrama than horror but with good performances and refreshing change of pace from the typical story about a scientist who reconstructs a woman's face then has to kill for more supply of key ingredients. This goes in a different direction. 8/10.

RHINO! 1964 -- innocuous Nature conservation film with lots of animal close ups. 8.5/10.
