I saw it about 4 years ago and quite enjoyed it iirc. Luv those spooky sci fi zombie....can I say that werd now ..... type films

Was bought the fantastic awesome true story'Into The Void' dvd for crumbly.
WHAT a story that was too!
Monumental documentary/film of epic proportions.

What is that about? Is that the guy who cut his arm off?

Nah. That's 127 hours, one I've still to watch.
Gruesome but fantastic apparently.

Sorry Wak. It's TOUCHING The Void, not Into.

Mountaineering film.
1985, Peru, Joe Simpson & Simon Yates attempt the previously unclimbed west face of Siula Grande in the Peruvian Andes.
They reach the top, but then the weather breaks down on the descent,and it then all goes horribly wrong for them. A true tale of unbelievable endurance, edge of the seat gripping adventure. Very highly recommended.

That is my kind of film,will have a look for it.

Saw the documentary on that not seen the movie yet...amazing ordeal.

If it was fiction, it'd be amazing, but this actually happened, and the two lads went back there a few years later to help direct the film.
Sends shivers down your back it does.

Two other great mountaineering true story films....The Beckoning Silence, the stoty of which is told by Joe Simpson of previous film regarding the first attempt of the climbing of the North Face of the Eiger in 1936.
Horrendously sad but gripping film, the feature film (with subtitles only unfortunately) being 'North Face'
