Bio-Dome (1996)
Turn off your brain and enjoy with nachos
Everyone by now is aware of the world in a bubble projects which sprung up in the nineties where they tried to recreate jungles and lakes under a glass roof in the desert right? Well thats the setting for this MTV generation comedy. No film which boasts Pauly Shore and Kylie Minogue as two of the main characters was ever going to be tasteful or deeply philosophical but hey, you don't always have to find meaning in a movie. Sometimes it's okay just to lay back with some junky snax, slurp a bladder busting gallon of soda and enjoy one of the Baldwins being an idiot for an hour and a half. Brilliant film that doesn't linger on the message (something about the environment) and still pleases on the hundred and twentieth view.
Dead Meat (2004)
A few good shots and a bucket of blood does not a horror movie make
When a movie is categorised as Horror/Action/Comedy you can be forgiven for assuming it will make you recoil in fear/marvel at the action/laugh at the funny bits. The scariest part of this film was the idea of being stuck in the Irish countryside for the night with a bunch of inbreds who speak some rural off shoot dialect not dissimilar to Brad Pitt's pikey in 'Snatch'. The action comes in the shape of an old woman trying to change the tyre on her husbands land rover and some suspense shots, er, borrowed shall we say from 'The Evil Dead'. I must admit though we did get one good laugh at the end of the film, as the credits rolled to the sound of one of the directors mates band's I turned to my friend Steven and asked "So how much did you pay for this?".
