nothing comes remotely close to how depressed I felt when I finished watching the short film Cutting Moments. I watched it a year ago and I’m still recovering.
There are few things I loathe more than people talking during a film. I work at a cinema and I’m always happy to ask them to leave if they cause problems.
I had an incident where some teenagers were throwing popcorn and various other things at me and a friend during a film screening, so we both confonted them and told them if they made any other sound or threw another piece of popcorn, they’d be banned from the cinema altogether. They shut up and left quietly just before the film ended to avoid any further confrontation, I suppose.
I’d suggest, if that kind of thing happens, just to inform the manager. They should do something about it.

Best Horror Film of 2009 over 2 years ago
I saw ‘The Human Centipede’ at Frightfest, not well-known, but distinctively disturbing.
Just watched ‘Inside’ and that was brilliant. I’m really enjoying modern French horror.
