The Running Man, Brain Damage, The Matrix Reloaded

Monday · 17 Feb 03 · 02:56 PM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: Movies

On 14th night, I saw a movie I hadn't seen in a long time - The Running Man, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.  Although this movie is not as well known as some of his others, it is still a good one and has lots of violent action!  Yesterday, I got seven posters of The Matrix Reloaded from JoBlo.com.  They look awesome and I combined them into one picture to make a wallpaper - which is on my desktop right now.  This morning at 11 AM, I saw Brain Damage on Zee MGM.  This is a strange horror movie with lots of blood and gore, and some comedy thrown in.  It is written and directed by the maker of Basket Case (which I haven't seen), Frank Henenlotter.  A young man, Bryan, is forced to kill people to feed a worm/leech-like parasite that sucks brains - so that the parasite may inject a pleasure-producing drug-like substance into his brain.  It reminded me of the classic The Little Shop of Horrors, and it is a well done movie though the creature effects looked cheap.

Yesterday I also spent some time on documentation work for our Final Year Project, and watched an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation called Preemptive Strike, in which Lt. Ro Laren is sent on an undercover mission to infiltrate a Maqui cell, only to have her loyalties challenged.

Also spent a lot of time on that Other Stuff™.
