Does anyone know where i can watch the Shadow film online?

I'm trying to get my head around the Pinball, which is good fun; but all this Mongol nonsense and the Shadow constantly reminding me that "knows" has me baffled.

Answer; i need to watch the film, regardless of how crap it might be.

I've got Netflix, but not Amazon/Lovefilm. It's not on Netflix...

I also have an FTP server should anyone decide to FTP something in my general direction (not gay porn, thanx).

Prep yourself, it's a truly dismal film.
 
I disliked the pinball, thought I'd watch the film to see if I'd like the machine any better (& try & work out what all the quotes/rules were about)...turns out the film was so bad I disliked the game all the more because it reminded me of the film.
Made me feel really sorry for the game designers as I'm sure they would've had to have watched the film several times :eek:

Regards,
Dan.
 
^boo! hiss! boo! hiss! etc ^

i like the film and love the pin. the film helps you work out about things like the Beryllium Sphere and Hotel Whatsisface. oh, and you get to hear the original quote 'anyone for Peking Duck?', which is relevant for me as i always just go for the Secret Laugh Mode (and Vengeance, obv) whenever i encounter one. plus i seem to recall there's a good bit where the heroine is wearing a slinky white satin camisole and you can totally make out her boobs through it. hubba hubba.
 
Hotel monolith, I never managed to get the secret laugh mode
Got secret laugh mode lots of times but that damn hotel mode I have a mental block on, it's only 2 ball but I know I'm gonna lose 1 of them almost right away! :mad:. Does my head in!. Same with the " extra ball is lit " call out after completing the battlefield, " extra ball is....." DRAIN!!!..arrgghhh. I still think it's an awesome pin, and there's something about the audio, really clear, crisp and dynamic, sounds better than all my other pins including the newer sterns I have.
 
... the Beryllium Sphere ...
Oh God! WTF is that about in the film (the part that appears in the pinball)? The dialog, & delivery of same, is so God awful - I assume it's trying to be slapstick, but fails to be funny in anyway and even detracts from trying to be able to take anything in the film seriously too.

I didn't "like" the machine but it is "playable" - it's not dreadful...but the film most certainly is (even if there is the remotest suggestion of a nipple ;))

Regards,
Dan.

"turns out the film was so bad I disliked the game all the more because it reminded me of the film."

Lol. Never seen it either but game has great rules. I'm gonna pass watching the film in the case the game turns out gash like you say.
 
I'm with Dan on this. It's an ok film if you haven't played the game, a great movie if you have.

I have a load of the original radio shows of the shadow from the 30s :confused:

Still not watched it! Although I've pieced stuff together from YouTube clips and other outlets...
Won't be adding it to my Christmas list though.
