It will gain a following...


It's just obvious this film will gain a following even become a cult classic maybe - However, i just had had to turn it off half way through i just found it boring.

I will attempt to watch it again in the distant future but for now just is not for me.

Me too. Just gave up on it, don't think I'll try again.

It was just too long. The last 30 mins were unnecessary. Thats how i felt at least.

reply

You're wrong. The whole thing was unnecessary.

i liked it and i like wheatley a lot, but no this won't gather a wider following. it's just not that kind of film. it's not commercial enough to just have been overlooked and on the other hand it's not brilliant enough to compete agaist similar, more fascinating films. don't get me wrong, i will give it another watch one day though.

It'll certainly gain a following with people who like to see Tom Hiddleston naked.

yeah...a diarrhea following!

Was about 35 minutes in before I realized I wasn't enjoying myself at all. And I've read a lot of stuff from Ballard.

I think it depends on how big Ben Wheatley gets. I'd say he's certainly going the right way though.
