I've been kind of waffling on seeing it..........looks like either a great historical flick or a horror film, and I'm not into modern day horror films (LOVE the 1930's/40's classics).  Might just check it out, it's showing just a few miles from me.  Thanks for the feedback.

If Buddy agreed to do it, it must have purpose

Keep the blues alive!

On my list for sure

I rented Sinners tonight because it's come down to $5.99 rental.  I prefer watching movies at home anyway.

It's like nothing I have ever seen, and I liked the first half of it:  A very interesting depiction of the black blues scene in Clarksdale, Mississippi in the early 1930's.  But then it deteriorated into a ridiculous, gory bloodletting full of nothing but blood thirsty vampires.  It's funny you know, I was just mentioning the other day with the lady who cuts my hair that I saw the original zombie film, The Night Of The Living Dead, right around when it was released in the late 60's.  They used to show it every Friday night at midnight at the only theatre in Simi Valley.  It was a novelty then, and a true original then.  What is this obsession with zombie films in youth culture today?  How many have there been over the last 25 years or so?  I bet it would be impossible to even count them all.

All the gratuitous violence of Sinners really turned me off, and with 30 minutes left in the film, I sat there just waiting for it to be over.  Honestly, I have a hard time understanding the rave reviews about this film.  Why couldn't they make what the movie started out to be:  An interesting tale of the 30's black blues scene, and weave an interesting personal tale into it regarding the characters involved.  Instead of people eating each other, stabbing each other, shooting each other.  I absolutely hate where Hollywood has taken this genre.  I'm a big fan of the early horror classics, and I have the original Dracula and Wolfman on DVD.
