Horns was the weirdest fucking movie I've seen all year. I think.

That's a shame; the concept sounded pretty cool. Oh well, still plan on reading the book at least.
Horror films as a genre are really rather shit, so I try to watch only the very highly recommended ones. One imagines that Oujia, Annabelle and even V/H/S don't fit that criteria.
Surely Jakey has seen this, but goodness knows I'm not digging through that leviathan of a list.

Succubus girl was decent
She was the closest thing to being scary all movie.

Indeed. Watching it back a second time where you see her on the periphery of a shot just staring at the guy with glasses is super creepy. The final story with the 'haunted house' has some nice tricks and the end with the train is pretty tense.

I'd go for it. I've read other Joe Hill stuff and been very impressed. The film was just the audiovisual equivalent to sitting on a wobbly chair.
I'm going to Amsterdam for a few days tomorrow so I'll watch it when I get back. I mean, I imagine that Amsterdam has cinemas but it also has drugs and prostitutes and there's only so much time in the day.
Just a quick heads up: I almost certainly won't like Interstellar. I'll watch it just because I can't bear to be out of the zeitgeist.

I'm off to see Interstellar in a bit, fully expecting to hate it. I'd say that something's wrong with me but I actually very rarely go to see films I expect to dislike; the pull of the zeitgeist is just too strong.
Briefly, there was the consideration of going to see Mr. Turner in a double bill, but - again - there are only so many hours in the day.

Much, much better than I was expecting. Inception was mediocre, The Dark Knight Rises was appalling, I thought for sure that this would continue on the downward spiral. There's clear inspiration by Spielberg and Kubrick - and it obviously never quite reaches the same heights - and it's sometimes pretty dopey but it actually delivers on its premise rather than putting forward interesting ideas and never confronting them.
Three stars is a recommendation. Apparently.

Should I feel upset about having my words twisted against me?

UKIP don't need their words twisted. They are bad already.
