one day i was strolling around the pound shop (i live in redcar, it gets its entire funding from pound shops and hairdressers (which i don't get because everyone is bald here)), and i found a rather funny sounding movie: spontaneous combustion. it had a quote from the bible on the front of it, how could i put it down? reading the back of it, it sounded pretty interesting.
so i paid my £1 and took it home and watched it.
okay, SO. the story is about a couple who are subject to nuclear testing, and they test some new drug that stops them being radiated or something. so far so good. anyway, the couple have a child. the group behind the test don't like it, she shouldn't have been able to get pregnant. anyway, they have the child. with me so far?
the child has a birthmark on its hand: a perfect circle. in the hospital, the couple spontaneously combust. that's right. they burn alive. the special effects are second to none, i mean, they just set two dummies on fire and shook them, added over the top screaming and it was done.
the story then goes to the child as an adult, who is played by some incredibly over the top actor. anyway, he gets angry and fire shoots out of his arm. or something. then he gets taken for an injection of... nuclear glow? i don't know. but he makes everyone in his way spontaneously combust. he even makes people spontaneously combust OVER THE PHONE.
but yeah, some shit happens then at the end he dissolves into a blue... glow. or something.
you must watch this film, it is amazing. i was actually rolling with tears. seriously.

spontaneous combustion - possibly the best film ever.
