Glastonbury decided to host this cracking cult movie not once BUT twice over the weekend. Alas despite my promotional tactics no one decided to watch the film. So now i DEMAND that everyone on the forum watches this film and passes some comment (even if you think its cr*p)
The Plot - "The Warriors are mistakenly accused of killing a big time gang leader named Cyrus. Soon they have every gang in the city out to get revenge... "
IMDB page (7.2 out of 10) -
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080120/
Trailer can be found
here
The Warrios Movie Site (not official i dont think) -
http://www.warriorsmovie.co.uk/
Also i did say one castmember was in "The Crow" and that was the character "Luther" played by David Patrick Kelly.
Also it looks like a remake will be filmed in the near future
so have you seen it yet ?

I saw it back in the day and can't remember too much about it except they have to get across town without being killed. It was quite controversial at the time of release, but I suspect is probably a bit dated now. Will try to watch again.

I saw this when it came out. I agree with Dave mac that it was quite controversial at the time and will probably seem tame compared to todays films.
Worth a watch none the less.

Sweet sweet cider, I miss you
Right now I am missing cooler weather, cider, yogurt (so much more variety there and so tasty, I had one here at lunch and it was crap), the PEOPLE, how often I was able to turn my head and simply have my breath taken away by something I'd see, and so many other little things.
I went to Walmart yesterday to have my photos printed and it was simply overwhelming. Every time I come back to where I live, I feel like this isn't where I want to be.
