I never thought about DePalma. Well we'll see what happens. The problem might be that I have no interest in the post-apocalyptic genre or the gladiator genre, hehe. Hopefully his talent outweighs some of the odd projects he chooses to do.Kevin J.

His next two projects look to be a gladiator film and a stuntman-on-the-run film (with Hugh Jackman). I'm guessing those are two genres rife with possibilities for him to succeed or fail (or in my way of thinking, move closer to a Tarantino or to a DePalma).Troy Olsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843741571724231174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8785859730868628316.post-4120257065823148952009-04-04T08:38:00.000-07:002009-04-04T08:38:00.000-07:00Alexander:Thank you for the very kind words.

I would definitely reccomend you see "Doomsday" because it will make you appreciate "The Descent" so much more. Just be prepared to hit the fast forwrad button, the film wears on you about an hour into it.<BR/><BR/>"The Descent" is one of the most haunting horror films in the last 20 years. It reverberates with a sadness and horror that touches something deeper that is more akin to a great drama than a horror film. The oodles of references found in "The Descent", as I stated in this review, are more nuanced, too.<BR/><BR/>I could talk for hours on "The Descent". I really look forward to your thoughts on the film. I hope you decide to write a review about your experience with the film.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for stopping by, Alexander!Kevin J.

I was impressed. <BR/><BR/>This, however, sounds like a train wreck. <BR/><BR/>One day I'll see it, though.
