If you haven’t watched “The Dead Lands” you should give it a whirl. It’s set in New Zealand and about a boy who wants to exact revenge for the destruction of his tribe. It’s entirely in the Maori language. It has some violence, but nothing gruesome. Some CGI blood, that just gives you a gasp effect, not even close to vomit-inducing or comical silliness. I loved the ancestors part of it, the setting is obviously beautiful, and the story was incredibly satisfying. And the wicked cool Maori fighting is pretty bad ass. The posturing is incredible and if you’ve ever enjoyed watching the Haka performed before rugby matches, you’ll love this movie. We even have a stunning fight with a female warrior. Seriously, check it out!
*wave*…just discovered that you also moved over here (at least partly).
You know…I am still hoping that you’ll take up writing Concubine Prince again one day…..
Swanpride!!!! I am so glad you found me!! Please be reassured that TCP is still(!) being written on! It’s completely plotted to the end and I am filling it out and making it amazing! Life keeps getting in the way, but I was actually planning on making it my Nano project this year. I’m not sure if I’ll be doing Nano, but if I do, it’ll probably be TCP.
It will? *happy dance* That would be so great!!!!
