Heavy going psycological SciFi thrillers
I've discovered my favourite genre!
Named up above
In the genre are;
Alien A
good film, the pace is good, technically a good film and it's an ok
film.
Predator It's a
good film to watch, the pace of the movie is good, not letting you get
to bored.
12 Monkeys an
amazing film, a very complex film that you may well need to watch more
than once to begin to grasp everything that goes on.
The thing
1982 version any good? Is there another version? sometimes I hear "The
1982" version, but I've not found any real evidence of another version
{edit: found, cheers juno}
The
thing from another world a.k.a The thing 1951 version, I've yet to
see it, but would like to.
Rumours of a 2009 "The thing" film....
Enemy at
the gates Enemy at the gates tells the story of Vassili Zaitsev;
a Russian sniper amidst the story of Stalingrad late in the Second
World War.
Turrican (link goes to a
fansite) gets a mention on the Heavy going psycological SciFi thrillers
page? yes, because in Turrican 1 & in Turrican 2 you end up on the
last level which is in an alien ship & there are lots of "Aliens"
which are very like the aliens from the "Alien" moovie, they are the
same aliens but I'm sure that copyright dosn't allow them to be the
same aliens. In Turrican, it is a 2d platformer, a very complex 2d
platformer with an array of selectable weapons, with an imaginative
array of baddies, where you travel accross land, down into caves, under
water, up high into the sky, into a mechanoid world and into an alien
space ship. Throughout the game is very admired upbeat music and
action, up until the last levels, when suddenly the music stops.
Turrican 1, the music stops and no sounds save shooting. Turrican 2,
the music stops, all except for the sound of a heartbeat and shooting
noises, this part of the game is very eerie and pays good homage to the
psycological SciFi genre!
SubStation
A “Doom clone”
for the Atari Ste
SubStation has
very eerie music. The
scenery is dark & the baddies come upon you quick enough to make
you jump.
More to come...
Franz
Ferdinand; Take me out
I ridiculed this song, but I have found out that it is about being
shot/shooting someone... I like to think it's about snipers! :)
