The Wraith

This was a strange movie. A guy who is killed comes back from the dead in a car to race road pirates and picks them off one by one. Not really even a horror movie as it's intended, or claims to be. Not so great. Not to mention it has nudity and sex scenes and the rating on the box is PG-13. What the hell?

5/10

Children of Men
Sublimely beautiful and powerful. Seamless special effects, amazing scope, wonderful acting and a very strong socio-political message wrapped in a SciFi allegory. This is cinema at it's finest. I'm torn between this one and Pan's Labyrinth for personal favorite film of 2006.

A+

The Descent- 9.5/10

It still manages to really scare me. Truly frightening.

THIS MOVIE IS GREAT! Pure 80s cheese... The corny lines, the stereotypical 80s bad guy (Packard!), the hot chick, the hilarious characters, etc.... THIS MOVIE IS A MUST SEE! Check out this video montage! It's awesome.

Here is another one of my favorite 80s movie! It's called "Tuff Turf"

I would. If I had known it was going to be like that, I'd have skipped it. lol

@BH14
Cheese? Nah, it was worse than that...I usually enjoy the cheezy horror films, but not this one. Parts even reminded me of ET for some reason.

I just watched The Descent again, for the third time. This time it was to show it to the woman I'm dating, who hadn't seen it before. It's still as awesome the third time as it was the first.
