The Public Order Emergency Committee is reviewing the federal government’s decision to invoke the Emergency Act on Feb. 14 to end the protests that had gridlocked parts of downtown Ottawa and some border crossings.

Il a inventé la fin après la fin. Tout comme nous pensions que la fille qui a mis le feu à ses yeux était morte et enterrée… putain ! Sa main sortait du sol ! Malheureusement, ce qui était original et audacieux à l’époque (le public criait de terreur dans les salles à chaque projection) est devenu cliché. Il n’y a aucun moyen de regarder un film d’horreur sans que le monstre que nous pensions mort ne recommence à bouger....
