Or at least events commonly considered in the bourgeois media to be "conspiracy theories." Personally, I believe that Joseph Stalin was assassinated in 1953 by the Khrushchev clique to ensure their rise to power.

The Hunter

I'm grabbing a torrent. The plot sounds wonderful but also creepy and horrible. Wonderful because it makes me want to see it. Creepy and horrible because it's as plausible as can be.

Mercenary Martin David is hired by military biotech company, Red Leaf, to go to Tasmania and gather samples of a supposedly extinct marsupial, the thylacine (Tasmanian tiger), with further instructions to kill all remaining tigers to ensure no competing organisation will get their DNA.

it's an extremely solid movie. i saw it way back when and went into it knowing nothing except liking Dafoe and pretty much any plot involving corporate conspiracy and environmental issues.

it's not paint by numbers at all and surprised me with its emotional complexity. i still think about it sometimes. totally a movie that i would describe as "slept on".
