Shopping Tour

A Russian minimum budget horror (comedy) film about Finnish cannibals...

Appears real bad, but has been in various film festivals around Europe.

Re:


It's once again Day of Aleksis Kivi aka Day of Finnish Literature. And I've finally found for you an English online version of his main work Seven Brothers, considered to be the fist novel written in Finnish.

Seven Brothers

Old translation, but sounds fine to me.

Renny Harlin continues to make us proud...

His The Legend of Hercules received 6 nominations in Golden Raspberry Awards - including Harlin's 5th nomination for Worst Director (though he's never won). Only Brian De Palma has as many nominations in the category.
This is 7th film by Harlin to be nominated in at least one category and 4th to be nominated Worst Picture (The Adventures of Ford Fairlane won 1990).
