MCB Lyrics, Chinese movies and some good FX

Thursday · 13 Feb 03 · 11:39 PM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: General

Sometime back, I wrote that I downloaded a song called Doom (a.k.a. Blood on the Walls) by Manny Charlton Band, from the website of Doom co-creator John Romero.  This is a terrific song that I keep listening to many times.  Well, yesterday I found the lyrics as well!  So if you have downloaded the song too and want the lyrics, you can find them at this place.

On the Chinese movie channel (Mei Ah TV) that I talked about earlier, a lot of good movies are being shown.  A few days back, they showed John Woo's Hard-Boiled.  English subtitles weren't great ("My life is unimportant anymore") but it is always nice to watch a movie in it's original language (I have the English dubbed version on tape, which is missing some footage and is not of very good quality).  I watched the last half hour or so here.  Some of the bloodier moments were censored though.  Yesterday they were showing a Ringo Lam movie called Full Alert, which I saw part of.  So far, I haven't still seen an entire movie on Mei Ah.

Last night Zee MGM was showing F/X 2: The Deadly Art of Illusion, and this is a movie that I haven't seen since a few years time, so I saw the whole thing.  Movie special effects wizard Rollie Tyler (Bryan Brown) is requested by the NYPD to use his F/X skills to help them nab a serial killer.  Things don't go as planned and his friend dies - but Rollie soon gets involved in a deadly cover-up.  Fast-paced movie with nice F/X (of course) and a great music score.

Today's episode of Roswell (I haven't been following this series that closely, but the last couple of episodes were very interesting) on STAR World had a guest appearance by Nelly Furtado.
