Always good to seem some love for the under-appreciated PREDATOR 2.

Oh man, I came on here to say RIP to Tchéky Karyo and heard Peter Watkins died too! PUNISHMENT PARK really is a masterpiece and EDVARD MUNCH is one of the best films about art and artists out there.

Compelled to leap in and recommend “Grabbers“, a small, charming Irish film. It falls into a similar genre as Shawn of the Dead with far less gore – it’s a horror/romantic comedy! :)
