What's the last movie you saw?  Doesn't matter if it was at home or at a theater.

Last one I saw was Captain Philips.  I thought it a pretty good movie, especially since it was based on real events.

hemlock grove.  Oye.  I watched about 8 episodes of that.  It got way to creepy gory for me... the creepy gore never let up.  Starkers, you like hemlock Grove, so well, now I am very happy you did not adopt me.        The affects in it are just awesome.  Making a woman missing her lower abdomen etc still seem so dead, and then 'alive.'  And kissing.  eeeeeeeeeeee    Oh, and did I mention   eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee? 

Yeah, Hemlock Grove was a bit gory, but I saw past that to follow the storyline and plot.  There is a season 2 due to be aired in the next few weeks, and I shall be glued to it just as I was with the 1st.  Besides, it's all fantasy and never likely to happen, so it isn't quite as shocking.  What I do find disturbing and refuse to watch is movies with nut-jobs running around with chainsaws, etc.  Stuff like that does happen and is too close to reality to be entertainment, in my book.

I just watched the girl with the dragon tattoo. Good flick! Even though I saw it a few times already. What she does to the case worker I call poetic justice.

I was 12 when I first saw that at the cinema... took my 'then' 9 y/o sister.

As does Mary Poppins and Blackbeard's Ghost... took her to see those as well.

Oh yeah, sat down last night and watched 'Expendables II' with Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Norris and a few other action stars.  It was okay, a few good one-liners here and there with some solid action throughout.... 7 out of 10.

We share similar views about horror genre.  I have zero interest in chainsaw maniac type flicks - too much like real life.  I guess, for Grove, I feel like some of it is also close to reality.  Perhaps that reflects more on my warped sense of reality... lol.  The plot was the only thing that kept me watching for so long.  Guess I will just read the spoilers, later.
