My review of the quite incredible film 'Pieces' can now be found on the 'All Things Horror' website for anyone who finds my little essays amusing: http://www.allthingshorror.co.uk/#/pieces/4535973536 | ||

Good fun, Lord P. Nicely done. "The biggest reddest typewriter I have ever seen" made me laugh. | ||

Having just watched a Pieces trailer, I suggest the producers change the tagline to: 'You don't have to go to Texas for a chainsaw massacre - you can go to B & Q instead; we did.'  Great review, as always, Lord P.  | ||

I have actually seen this, in the old Forum cinema which no longer exists. The ending is indeed something special. I suspect the makers of Resurrection got their idea of a corpse made out of separate bits from this piece of early 80ies trash. | ||

I'm not familiar with Resurrection Hubert, but there is the 1980s Lamberto Bava giallo BodyPuzzle that uses the same premise. | ||

This is the one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resurrection_(1999_film) It's very intense and fast-paced and yes, there are hints of 7even, not only storywise but also in the general atmosphere - lots of rain, predominantly dark colours . . . By all means seek it out, I for one wasn't disappointed. Speaking of giallos, have you ever seen a dvd of La Lama nel Corpo (1967)? I so much want to see this film it's become an obsession, to the point I'm beginning to imagine my own storyline. | ||

If you really really really want to see it, Hubert, well... http://www.torrentreactor.net/find/la-lama-nel-corpo/35/ | ||

Thanks, Craig, but I no longer have a credit card, so that's not in the works  |
