Anderson CowanHOST
It's directed by James Watkins, who I don't even remember why I saw his first movie a number of years ago, but it's one that I bring up from time to time on this, on this show.
Anderson CowanHOST
It's Eden Lake, which I absolutely was blown away by.
Anderson CowanHOST
It's this man knows how to direct the sense of dread.
Anderson CowanHOST
It is just, Eden Lake starring Kelly Riley and Michael Fassbender it's just a couple and they're like on a little camping trip and they're in love and then some ne'er-do-wells show up and things go south he also directed last year's was it last year or two years last year I think Speak No Evil the remake um last year that uh avery and i both loved i don't think brian loved it as much as we did but i love i don't
AveryPANELIST

Anderson CowanHOST

Anderson CowanHOST
Like those guys want to do that.
Anderson CowanHOST
It's very uncomfortable.
Bill BriaPANELIST
And yeah, I think that Watkins so far, because he only has maybe a handful of films under his belt with that.
Bill BriaPANELIST
I think it's Eden Lake that he did first.
Bill BriaPANELIST
Yeah, I think he's a solid genre guy.
Bill BriaPANELIST
He definitely has a workman-like sort of attitude to him.
ThomasHOST
He's an interesting directorial figure.
ThomasHOST
He hasn't had a huge amount of stuff, but he did Eden Lake and the Woman in Black movie with Daniel Radcliffe and Speak No Evil, the remake.
ThomasHOST
Have you seen any of his other stuff? What do you think of him as a director?
Joey HamiltonGUEST
I actually haven't seen any of his other stuff until I sat down for Clayface.
Joey HamiltonGUEST
But honestly, it really just came down to I wasn't a fan of how he directed his actors.
Joey HamiltonGUEST
But I'm very curious to see how he handles the Speak No Evil remake.
Joey HamiltonGUEST
I've been meaning to watch Eden Lake for a while, but I haven't done that yet.
Joey HamiltonGUEST
On paper, it really does seem like this was the right guy.
Ben ErringtonHOST
This pretty much does that.
Ben ErringtonHOST
I guess it's kind of like Children of the Corn meets Eden Lake in a way because it's like the kids aren't, because obviously they're not like chavs, they're little Spanish kids, but like, you know, kids who seem like they're just being a bit bothersome and antisocial to start with who then become a bit like evil and then like, is this
Charley ErringtonGUEST
a bit supernatural i don't know is it is it as jarring as eden lake
Ben ErringtonHOST
oh no i don't think anything's as jarring especially like i mean if i was spanish maybe but i'm from the uk so eden lake is very jarring
Charley ErringtonGUEST
yeah yeah yeah i saw you watching a bit of it when i when i came home from work the other day
Ben ErringtonHOST
Oh, yeah.
Devon TaylorHOST
So, yeah, we'll see.
Devon TaylorHOST
I totally forgot it's the guy that did Eden Lake.
Devon TaylorHOST
Have you seen Eden Lake? I sure have.
Devon TaylorHOST
It's also written by Mike Flanagan.
Devon TaylorHOST
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
ArnieHOST
No, I've
StuartHOST
never seen Eden Lake, but I hear it has a good rep.
StuartHOST
I know you guys liked it.
StuartHOST
It was one of those that one of our listeners picked for us to put in the book.
ArnieHOST

StuartHOST

JTEHOST
Here's the thing, though.
JTEHOST
I do think like if you guys a director like the guy who directed Clayface, I can't remember his name, but he directed a film that I talked about recently called Eden Lake.
JTEHOST
or Minutes Like Eden with Michael Fassbender.
JTEHOST
It's a very dark, disturbing movie.
Andy MeakinHOST
This is a DC film that even if you've got no experience of DC, you can go in and just watch as a body horror film.
Lee FordHOST
I've got to give plaudits to James Watkins, who he used to say, British director, gave us Eden Lake, The Woman in Black, and recently the James McAvoy Speak No Evil, which I think is a really good film.
Lee FordHOST
He uses some very gruesome horror scenes.
Lee FordHOST
As Andy said, there are some very, very squeamish elements.
Kenny SparksHOST
A very
Zach GoldbergHOST
gory movie in Eden Lake, one of the most hardest to watch horror movies ever.
Zach GoldbergHOST
So the body horror aspects of it make sense to me because of what he's done in the past in terms of like the tension and the gore and having one of the coolest kills, two of the coolest kills I've seen this year.
Zach GoldbergHOST
But I feel like the writing was in the characters felt so inconsistent as we like went through each part of the film, especially with Naomi Aki's character where like, I was like, why are you... why are you going so hard about this guy and not informing your husband? It just, I didn't get that feeling that she was going to do that.
