BEWARE THE MEGA SNAKE
• The Hogfather
Based on the Terry Pratchett novel. Is this any good? Can anyone tell me?
• Doctor Who Episodes 81 and 104
Two separate DVDs that I refuse to give separate listings. The former is "Planet of evil," the latter is "Destiny of the Daleks."
• Blood+ Part One
Did you like the original Blood anime? Well, this removes the cool bits and adds in a lot of angst-y nonsense.
• Archie's Funhouse the Complete Series
Slow week.
• MEGA SNAKE
Oh my god. Please enjoy this Amazon description of this movie:
Because his father was killed by a poisonous snake bite, Les Daniels has a deadly fear of snakes. Chaos ensues when Les’ brother accidentally unleashes a rare, extremely deadly mythical snake. The snake escapes into Les’ small town and begins to grow at a terrifying rate. Now Les must overcome his paralyzing fear to help protect his small town against the growing, deadly MEGASNAKE, which is devouring anything in its path.
Greatest movie ever? Quite possibly.
Comments
Hogfather is a great adaptation of the novel, if you at all a fan of Pratchett's Discworld series it's worth a watch.
Posted 03/04/2008 at 09:34:36 AMThe acting is all well done, and matches to what I had in mind for allot of the characters.
Pratchett has a cameo as a shopkeeper at one point, as does the reader of the abridged audiobook versions, can't recall his name off the top of my head.
Based on the success of this, they are finishing up work on Color of Magic, a second adaptation.
Yeah I liked the Hogfather too. It was on the telly here in Australia at xmas.
