Julie, I think (Cloverfiled) that was supposed to be a reference to Alien and 28 Days Later. She had something inside her, I think that busted through.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

If it was a reference/shout out, I get the former, but not the latter. Unless it's the "if you get the blood on you/in you you're infected too?"

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yes. I think that is what we are supposed to gather.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
Still haven't forced myself to watch Last King of Scotland for him though.
not totally sure you'd want to, to be perfectly honest. it's pretty hard to watch.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I know it's futile to bring realistic science into speculation about a movie that has a giant monster trashing NYC, but I would tend to think that an implanted larval parasite would kill someone well before it grew large and strong enough to spread their entire torso open and escape. I'm assuming what we saw was the effect of some kind of venom or digestive enzyme that reacted with the victims' stomach acid after a certain point and burst them with the internal pressure of suddenly expanding gasses .

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
McAvoy fans: it's worth renting the BBC Shakespeare Retold: MacBeth if only for the leather pants.

that's what I'm thinking, too, tiggy.
What about The Wind that Shakes the Barley?
hee, Laga, I think the Life fans have put "a very long wait" onto anything Damian Lewis related on Netflix. (I believe McAvoy's McBeth is on the same disc with Much Ado About Nothing).

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Shameless is a lot of fun for McAvoy fans.

Matt, that makes sense too!
