Finally watched the Speak No Evil remake. Decent and diverges from the original, in a good way. Gave me the same uncomfortable, unbearable feeling as Eden Lake - also from the same director.

Watching the 1997 The Jackal movie (these weekly waits for a new episode of The Day Of The Jackal are getting to me). Ludicrous and all over the place. The soundtrack, though: '90s heaven.
