Cabin Fever was good drunk laughs with friends. I keep thinking there's something mentally wrong with Eli Roth though.

Hot Tub Time Machine

I found this to be extremely entertaining and genuinely laugh out loud funny.The film benefited from the obvious comic chemistry shared by the actors playing the four main characters,who looked like they had a great time during filming.Great fun. 9/10

Been keen to watch Hot Tub Time Machine glad to hear its decent. Way to many comedies fall flat.

Tormented


Poor script, poor acting and very formulaic. Id read some mixed reviews on this beforehand but it seems those giving the lower marks out of ten were accurate. A young overweight lad is bullied so much he commits suicide and comes back from the dead to get his revenge. The only convincing scenes were the flashbacks to the bullying and so called happy-slapping which really were quite hateful.

I wouldnt waste your time unless you're really bored.

Undead (2003). This is a low budget affair that extracts its excellence through blood, sweat, and tears- good things come from those that suffer. Begging, stealing, lying and contriving, and mooching all the way, the Spierig Brothers were not to be denied. The result is a wonderful horror comedy born of frustrated exhaustion. And it works wonderfully. The acting is fine for what it is worth, with some wickedly funny one-liners and profane ramblings. The story itself was surprisingly good. The direction and even camera work was competent, especially considering that some of the scenes had to get it right the first time (like wrecking the truck that served as a primary transport vehicle of cast, crew, and equipment). The effects were most surprising, many of which were generated on a laptop by the brother-directors after first having learned the computer programs from scratch. All in all this little gem made for a wonderful good time. Merci beaucoup.
