        Come On Chaps It`s Not That Bad

        I couldn`t fail to notice the very harsh comments CURSE OF THE TALISMAN is getting on this page . Okay I admit a film featuring stone gargoyles from ye olde England turning up in Australia with murder on their mind isn`t going to be a classic movie but there were two things I should point out to everyone

        1 ) The lack of gore . So it`s a TVM therefore there`s restrictions , but regardless of why it`s a nice change to see a horror movie without arms and legs getting bitten off every five minutes

        2 ) Praise the lord there`s no CGI . As far as I could see the gargoyle effects were achieved by stop frame animation . I hope to see this special effect reintroduced into all films that require it because I got fed up with CGI in nineteen ninety something

        Oh and weren`t those gargoyles cute ?
