The Hound of the Baskervilles [1959]


Ah, you can't go wrong with Hammer. On the back of the DVD, Newsweek proudly proclaims "The Best of the Sherlocks!", and I have to agree. This is the role that Peter Cushing was born to play, it's a shame he didn't play it as often as he did Van Helsing. His mannerisms, his delivery, even his looks, everything about him is perfect Holmes. The rest of the cast are pretty good too, dont get me wrong, but Cushing puts them to shame. Though he is rather ominous in some scenes, it's nice to see Christopher Lee opposite Cushing as a good guy for a change. I really liked the classic plot, full of surprises, great characters, humor and lots of chances for Cushing to shine. The atmosphere is great, foggy and dark like many Hammer films. Perfect for horror. All in all this is a really fun film, though it does have a few pretty cheesy moments. Good film overall though.

7.5/10

The Greatest Game Ever Played 9/10
I really enjoyed this movie, especially since it was based on actual events and real people. I thought the little kid who was his caddie was something Hollywood added in, but it turns out that he was real also. In the bonus features you get to see the film and pics of the real Francis, and pics of the real Eddie. Well acted and directed, I would recommend this film from the most avid golfer to the weekly hacker(myself). Even if you don't play golf you might enjoy it.

Hills Have Eye 7/10
I just saw this at the cheap theatres, and I surprisingly enjoyed it. The acting is good and the atmosphere created by the director was done well also. I need to go back and see the original, as I don't remember much of it. I would not pay full price for it, but I would recommend you check it out at a discount theatre, or on DVD.

I just saw The Swarm. It's a pretty good old movie about killer bees.

The Swarm - haven't seen this one in ages. Don't remember much about it except the bees - but I do remember them fondly :D
