Remembrance by Paradise Lost

Watched Dead Heat (1988) by an author from letterboxd.com
Detective Roger Mortis is killed in action while investigating a string of mysterious robberies: until he's brought back from the dead with a chemical company's secret re-animation technology. Now he has 12 hours to solve the case of his own death before he dies: And stays dead.

I think it was worth the ninety minutes but only just.

★★★

My review

Watched The Railway Children (1970) by an author from letterboxd.com
After the enforced absence of their father, the three Waterbury children move with their mother to Yorkshire, where they find themselves involved in several unexpected dramas along the railway by their new home.

A sad reminder that knowing the right people is the key to success…

★★★

My review

Watched Cujo (1983) by an author from letterboxd.com
A friendly St. Bernard named "Cujo" contracts rabies and conducts a reign of terror on a small American town.

I did not expect this to be as good as it was to be honest. I’ve not read the book, but having read some King, I imagine that the overall tone of domestic melodrama, sprinkled with extreme trauma, is pretty much bang on.

I know one thing for sure: viewers with a child are watching a different movie to those without a child.

Can’t forgive the Mum for breaking so many horror movie rules, though. Elementary errors all round!

Oh, and I forgot to mention the uncredited four-legged star(s)! They are fantastic and I felt so sorry for them in all that awful make-up!

★★★½
