A quick question about oil used for frying.

Scotty My sister and I get mistaken for one another in the street. She used to live in a small village outside Edinburgh.

AGHHHHHHHHH! The Scariest Horror Movie Ever!
Former Member It really scared me the first time I saw it and it still makes me jump now. Clowns are evil. The more recent(ish) films that preyed on my mind when I was trying to get to sleep would be the Japanese ones like The Grudge and the Ring - even the remakes are scary [ more ]

Books into Film .
Former Member The problem is not making books into films but doing it well. I often thought I would like to have a film production company which adapted books to the screen and did it properly. I understand El Loros points about the difficulty in translating the written word to film but what drives me mad is when they kill off characters or make up new ones and thereby completely change the story. I love Dean Koontz's books and think most of them would adapt very well to the big screen but every single... [ more ]
Ensign Muf Thin Air by George E Simpson and Neal R. Burger Read it about 30 odd years ago and as far as I am aware, it was never made in to a film. Though films have been made about the Philadelphia Experiment [ more ]
El Loro The problem with choosing a book to make into a film is that they are very different forms of media. A book lets you visualise the story as you read it whereas a film visualises the story for you. Compare two of the greatest Brisitsh directors of all time - David Lean and Michael Powell. I rate Powell ahead of Lean as whereas Lean generally adapted existing books, Powell tended towards material written for the film (normally using Emeric Pressburger). Also if you adapted even a short book... [ more ]
