What us film students dream of...

Rating: Null/10 (3 December 2004)

Went to the movies on the spur of the moment this arvo to watch Saw, and came out totally entertained and grinning with delighted disgust, as this is a great horror film - makes you squirm, makes you cringe. Sure there are some dodgy bits but what would any horror film be without those?? But the best bit is that these guys are Aussie film makers. As an (aspiring) Aussie film-maker it is great to see a couple of guys who have broken the mould a bit and had fantastic success. It's what we all hope for but sometimes it seems a bit out of reach. So I say THANKS YOU TWO and WELL DONE for getting us Southerners up into Hollywood with such a cool film.....gives the rest of us still sitting here studying and trying to get together a plan of attack for entering the film industry a little bit of encouragement. Well a lot of encouragement. Hope everyone else enjoyed this film too, and go and see it so it does well at the Aussie box offices too! (I saw it in Brisbane and the cinema was packed, always a good sign, although I nearly killed the girls down the front who were giggling the whole damn time........) Anyway, cool movie!
