yeah i talked about berberian sound studio before. has to be the most overrated film all year. if you want to watch a good film about sound recording, watch the conversation or blow out, if you want to watch something that is actually scary, watch suspiria or something. but do not watch BBS (that directors first film, which is a semi art house rape revenge movie, is a 100 times better). critics lap up meta horror far too easily - its not clever anymore.
on a similar note, the house of the devil is really great at all the suspense building 80s horror homage stuff (far better than BBS), but when it gets near the end, i.e. the point where its all meant to come to a head and actually make you shit yourself, it totally blows it and makes you hate the film.
