| Has anyone seen the indie horror flick entitled May? I recommend it, since the horror elements, while not so direct, are present in the inner workings of the main character's mind. Everything is a lead up to this final decision of hers, and while the leadup may not seem so "horror-esque" as some people may prefer, I still find the character and plot development so intense. |

I think I saw that one.... Is it the one where the main character tries to "make" a friend? (like Dr. Frankenstein) |

I saw Gattaca (1997) again and we’ll like all movies you understand a lot more watching it a second time and I would recommend it. So I think I’m going to see Donnie Darko again as well just because you’ve all stuck my curiosity. LOL. Here a little plot summary for anyone who is curious I got it from IMDB “Vincent is one of the last "natural" babies born into a sterile, genetically-enhanced world, where life expectancy and disease likelihood are ascertained at birth. Myopic and due to die at 30, he has no chance of a career in a society that now discriminates against your genes, instead of your gender, race or religion. Going underground, he assumes the identity of Jerome, crippled in an accident, and achieves prominence in the Gattaca Corporation, where he is selected for his lifelong desire: a manned mission to Saturn. Constantly passing gene tests by diligently using samples of Jerome's hair, skin, blood and urine, his now-perfect world is thrown into increasing desperation, his dream within reach, when the mission director is killed - and he carelessly loses an eyelash at the scene! Certain that they know the murderer's ID, but unable to track down the former Vincent, the police start to close in, with extra searches, and new gene tests. With the once-in-a-lifetime launch only days away, Vincent must avoid arousing suspicion, while passing the tests, evading the police, and not knowing whom he can trust...” So watch it  |

Great movie. I think it is even more relevant today than when it was released.
I also love Donnie Darko. I highly recommend that you see the Director's Cut. It explains things much more clearly than the original cut.
Just got two horror flicks from Amazon: Sublime and Rest Stop both made by the independent company, Raw Feed. They have a very cool website and are making extreme horror movies exclusively. I'll let you know how they are after I've watched them. |

You're really missing out! The action in the film is intense, and the book is even more action packed. Best book I've ever read  |
