Something a little different,from the usual.
R-Point
http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0417072/
A ghostly horror set in the dying days of the Vietnam War,a South Korean army base begins receiving mysterious radio transmissions, from a patrol that went missing six months earlier. A shell-shocked commanding officer (Woo-Sung Kam) ,and a ragtag military unit are sent into the desolate stretch of land known as R-Point, to gather clues as to the whereabouts of the missing soldiers. What appeared to be a clear search and rescue mission, turns into something far more terrifying than any battle.
Although this ( obviously) is in Korean, with English Subtitles ,it is a gripping "makes you jump" movie, that leaves you with a twist at the end.

| Jess and I sat through all ten episodes of Band of Brothers recently. What a fantastic piece of television. The only downside is that it took me so long to finally watch it. It could be the best mini-series ever. |

 | I think they fit the parts well, much better than Hugh in "House", his "yanknie accent "really befuddles me.  |

| I actually think Hugh's accent in 'House' is pretty good. Ok, you can tell he's putting it on but it's not as bad as some efforts I've heard. Apparently none of the cast and crew on Band of Brothers could believe that Damian Lewis was English, so good was his American accent. It actually had Jess fooled too. |

Well he's working in the right place then.  |
