Threads (1984ish) for depression and sleepless nights.
I quite like the walking dead, less zombies now, more coping with the aftermath.

Just got round to watching or rather attempting to watch World War Z. What an absolute bag of crap . I managed a little over half an hour then fast forwarded through the rest of it. Also caught a bit of that after earth and though watchable at best but nothing fantastic .
Independance Day was another one that is in my top ten god awful films.

A very common statement , I've lost count of how many times that has been said about a film of any genre .

It was the teeth. The scientist at the end *shudders*

I don't know why, not something that would usually bother me. He needs a slap in the face. With a shovel!

Did anybody see The Divide on Film4 a couple of days ago? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1535616/?re ... lmg_act_28

I watched it to see how Michael Biehn and Rosanna Arquette are doing ...they were good enough, but I didn't care about any of the characters, even theirs, so I kept on fast forwarding through :mrgreen:

What on earth makes you think anyone believes that these works of fiction would be anything approaching the truth?
