Just finished watching Threads, suddenly all the problems of my life don't seem so bad. You'd think dying painfully of radiation poisoning over a couple of months would be one of the worst thing that could happen to you during a nuclear war, turns out you are wrong. |

Threads is a sobering experience. I've seen it a few times now and it always leaves me feeling empty afterwards. |

It’s just started if anyone is watching it. I’ve seen it before and was disappointed, but I get the feeling I am going to watch it again now. |

See in a way this bit before it all kicks off scares me the most. Very tense. (It's a bit darkly funny that it stars soap actors and it's all shot like a soap, but there's so much tension. Just brilliant film making honestly.) |

Kablammo. It’s almost halfway through before the bombs go off. Of course, if you were watching this for the first time and nobody knew what was coming, suddenly it’s very understandable how this became such a cultural touchstone. |

1586000690514.jpg ![]() ![]() ![]() Yeah it wasn't all the good, but I suppose it isn't meant to be a materpiece of storytelling, though it scratches the post-apocalyptic itch. I must either lack empathy or lack a grasp of the gravity of the film as it hasn't left me feeling .. anything in particular. |

The photos are easily my favourite part of Threads. Near the start, I thought they were genuine war photos from World War 2, drawing parallels with past atrocities. They look so plausible and convincing, and yet so harrowing. |

They should make a sequel to it following the traffic warden (Steve Coogan) and his efforts to keep humanity moving against the lollipop man (Peter Serafinowicz) who wants to return to a primitivist lifestyle. |

Aight, maybe Threads affected me more than I thought. I've spent the day with my parents asking how long they think their food supplies would last without shopping, and visiting my brother who's sick with pneumonia, coughing his lungs up looking like his greyed face is falling off. |

Hang on, I was wrong, the most horrifying film is this soviet-era Estonian advert for minced chicken. Honestly, nothing can prepare you for this. |
