Can anyone recommend anything? We have just got a new TV and DVD player and I am not sure what is available on Blueray. We love thrillers and horrors!!

with a good soundsystem connected this one is very enjoyable..

Nine Inch Nails Live - Beside You in Time [Blu-ray]

If you don't appreciate their music Bladerunner - The Final Cut is a must

not so much thriller or horror but very good!

"Planet Earth", the BBC series, is a must have!

Call me old and grouchy but anyone who has upstairs or downstairs neighbours and who has a super-charged tv system should be sent to the snake pits. Nothing so annoying as loud tv. Hearing every word of bad bad movies. Much worse than loud music. My former upstairs neighbours take note! Not that I'm suggesting you're a nasty neighbour. Just had a rant stored up about that for a while! Maybe am just old... :twisted:

Ah got me a top floor apartment with nobody below, so can play And also the Trees to me hearts content. Used to consider playing the Sisters or Swans to my former neighbours but I suspect they would have retaliated with Brian Kennedy....

How does that work then?

In the block there's only two flats, which is a bit weird, and nobody lives below. It's one of those new developments, probably put up in 20 minutes that's impossibly expensive to buy but cheap enough to rent. Somebody probably will move in eventually though am kind of hoping not and knowing my luck it will be rave (if it's still called that) or Brian Kennedy or probably both! By the way, your animation reminds me of work by a Belgian artist, who's name escapes me, of skeletons doing rather naughty things...

I really don't see the attraction of soi-disant torture-porn movies like the Saw franchise. :urff:
