Late reply I'm sorry, I didn't think to look for replies.
So in summery, yes I recognise a lot of the places in Threads, they knocked that City Hall building down in the early 00's though so it's lost one of its creepy mausoleumsoh and Woolworths, you see that blow up.
I've stopped watching Threads nowI've not watched it for about ten monthsoh and no I'm not young, I grew up with all this horrible oppressive stuffin Sheffield.

Nah, its not wrong. It is a horror movie for big boys who are not impressed by latex monsters or skull faced slashers.

Honestly iamthehollow, you want your bloody head seeing to.

I would totally say you are one sick beep that need to get your issues sorted.

im a fan of horror but I find this hard to take but have watched it more than once , its the same with martyrs
im not your buddy guy, im not your GUY buddy, im not your buddy guy

Well, the film obviously had an emotional impact on you, or you wouldn't watch it so much, and laughter is a very common way to digest the horrific (ever meet a paramedic?), so not that surprising! I also imagine you're probably too young to have grown up in the 80's when this was all too real

Anyone that would watch this over and over and find enjoyment w/ this type of movie probably has some serious emotional problems and more than likely causes some form of harm to themselves like cutting, pulling hair or maybe even takes enjoyment in harming others. I really feel sorry for you and hope you can find more pleasant things to do w/ your time. This is just my opinion & whatever you do, if you feel a sense to harm someone, please seek help.

Come on, admit it the more you watch the film, the funnier it gets. Being from Sheffield, do you recognize anything?
"I'm a vehemently anti-nuclear, paranoid mess, harbouring a strange obsession with radioactive sheep."

It mirrors the inside of my soul perfectlyI love the blacker than night humour.
The swirling winds of the firestorm is like music to my ears'Have you seen our Mandy'?
It's a great film.

don't know if you're sick or not, but you're braver than I am. I have Threads on my desktop and I usually have to take a deep breath before I press play, and even then I usually can't watch more than a couple minutes at a time. I have a morbid fascination with post apocalyptic movies, but this one is too real for me. I grew up having nightmares about nuclear war and this takes me back. It's still an amazing accomplishment that any movie could make me feel that way.

I even live in SheffieldI'm a threads fanboysometimes I watch The Day After.
Usually it's Threads
