"Two films you *must* watch this weekend"

Sunday (I think)

The Hitcher - Rutger Haur & C Thomas Howell.
Kid picks up hitch-hiker who demands the the kid kills him. Kid refuses and kicks him out of the car, the Hitcher then spends the movie hunting the kid down.
It's dark, nasty and very, very good.


The Taking of Pelham 123
Best "Heist" film ever. Robert Shaw, Walther Matthau and a load of others.
A group of criminals take a NY subway train and hold the passangers hostage until they get $1 million ransom.
All the criminals are colour-coded (Mr White, Mr Black, Mr Blue...sound familiar?) and this film rocks. Big time.
Worth watching if only for the opening title music - Best 70s wah-wah music ever.

Don't miss these two films folks or you're most silly

Or maybe I was joking ;0.

The Hitcher is a class film, very tense and sometimes a bit spoocky like when C Thomas Howell wakes up in the police cell and finds all the cops in the place murdred. Great film.

Exactly.

So trust me with Pelham 123 as well, you won't regret it.

Shall do.

I'll have to check up about The Hitcher, damn S4C. Pobel Y Cwm.

Been a good week for movies on TV.

Goodfellas, Crash, American Werewolf, and Unforgiven.

I saw The Hitcher in Scotland years ago. Well, I saw the end anyway, so it's sort of ruined for me. Oh well, I'll watch it anyway.

I'll watch that other one too, and that reminds me that I missed some Heist film last night with Pierce Brosnan in. Probably crap, but I still wanted to see it. :-(

Ive got the Taking of Pelham 123 - Its one of my most favourite films! Highly recommended!

I saw the advret for The Hitcher last Sunday after Urban Legend had finished. I watched and thought to myself "that looks cool, I'll watch that". So I was gonna watch that anyway :-)

I'll check out Pelham 123 as well. Cheers GayBoot :-)
