Curious about: The Frighteners
Your taste in Kukrick is pretty much the reverse of mine. The realisation, of the opposite taste, is weird to see, I mean I know there will be people out there with the flip-side of my taste in a director, but to actually see it realised, well that is something else.
As I enjoy Jackson's early films I have to suggest seeing Bad Taste, Meet the Feebles and Braindead, but they are definitely not to everyone's taste.
