I've never seen a cinema audience so gripped by a Western scary movie, tbh. It's still one of my absolute favourites.... all atmosphere and no cheap (read: high budget) tricks/jumps... never truly knowing if they're not going mad/playing tricks on each other is excellent.

It does lose a bit on the small screen... but standard horror rules should always apply with scary movies - all lights off, curtains closed, volume up, NO BREAKS and NO FUCKING TALKING... suspension of disbelief is more important than in any other genre. I remember getting the "meh, it's not scary though" response when I showed some mates The Exorcist during our GCSE exam leave... "NO, YOU JUST REFUSED TO LET YOURSELF BE SCARED BECAUSE YOU'RE A BUNCH OF PUSSIES"

I think the main reason people hated it (originally) was the ending. You had to have felt cheated lol

I curse myself for not finding out about this sooner. It's fucking gold. Chris Langham, real live conviction aside, is fucking hilarious.

The peek of The Thick Of It was the Xmas specials. No Chris Langham because...well you know why, but that meant the focus was primarily on Malcolm and Jamie. The way it all turns out for Malcolm in those episodes is priceless. Was disappointed when Jamie wasn't there in the last series. Still quality though.
