Ok so what do you think of when the I mention the 1993 movie Alive? Nine out of ten people who are aware of this movie will say "cannibalism" or someshit along those lines. I was one of the nine, up until about two hours ago when I decided to watch it again for the first time in about fifteen years. And as it turns out, the old adage "don't fuck with sleeping dogs" seriously applies here. I remembered this movie as a badass plane crashing, bloody bone popping, crazy-ass flesh-eating extravaganza. That's how I remembered it at least. In reality it's one-hundred and twenty minutes of people stuck on a mountain soaked with roman-catholic propaganda. Before the plane crash some douche is praying. After the plane crash some douche gives some dude shit for not praying with him, but luckily enough he's converted a short time later and starts praying. They even managed to say a few words about God before the cannibalism begins. So needless to say I was a little disappointed. Now don't get me wrong, it's still a half-decent movie, it's just not what I remembered. The plane crash is still pretty fuckin' awesome, tons of people die, there's a fuck-load of blood, and shit you just can't go wrong with cannibalism. Now on to the mighty, mighty Zuel Scale. Yesterday this would've scored somewhere in the high 8s, but after watching it again I'd have to say 6.8 would be fair.
