Highly recommended; particularly to our HDC veterans...NE, Newb, Doc Faus, Hammerfan, __V__, CG, Ferox and Angra. I think you' guys will at least like it for sure.

>>: A-

Thanks, Rosh. Will put this in my queue rightaway.

Very impressive. If you thought Rhoda Penmark was mind-blowing in The Bad Seed, wait til you get a load of Isabelle Fuhrman in this one. Definitely recommended, although it tends to get slow at times, but doesn't take away from the superb narrative and the outstanding acting of the 12-year-old.

The Long Day's Dying (1968)
Very odd ball War film about 3 British Paras behind enemy lines. Stars David Hemmings - reminded me a bit of
the Peter Watkins film Gladiators (but on a smaller scale).



The ABCs of Death (2012)
26 short films by different directors about murder/death each based on a letter of the alphabet. Its a little hit or miss but over all its really enjoyable and a pretty novel idea.
Good thing the Tokyo Gore Police guy got Z as that was a hard act to follow...



Walking Tall (1973)
Enjoyable biopic film of legendary Sheriff/vigilante Buford Pusser - stars the always great Joe Don Baker.



Cockneys vs Zombies (2012)
Way better than I expected (unlike that Cast of Eastenders vs Vampires crap) - Enjoyable violent non-sense as a
group of wide boys are joined by the residents of an OAP home to take on the hordes - the oldies inc Bricktop, Honor Blackman, Richard Briers and the guy from Lovejoy.

Ghosts of Georgia (2013) I not going to say by it full name as it sound stupid

I really liked this movie, I found this movie a lot more creepier then first movie,

There was some really good scare scenes in this movie that last long then one Second, there not there just to make you jump.

There some really strange effect in this movie, which I am not sure what to think of at the moment.

Actually liked the fact this movie dose focus on, the same old route, Kid seeing a strange things,

most of people in the movie see thinks, I liked the fact they do believe way before the end, which I think was nice change.

I liked how the plot came to end was really good, there were really good tense moment in this movie.

The ending was fitting end, Nice and sweet ending to this movie.

The acting from everyone in cast was really good and the some of effect were really good in this movie.

A lot better then I thought it would be,

I going to give this sequel 7/8 out of 10

Not a total mess, hence I gave it 2 stars.

But where to start? Obvious nods to Paranormal Activity, The Grudge, a flawed premise, a too short running time to explain everything, and a hurried climax. And to top it all, the ridiculous closing scene. There are a few good scenes scattered far and between (a superb opening build-up), but overall, a weak effort. Not to mention the leads, who do a brilliant job trying to look handsome but lack acting skills.

I understand that it's a low-budget film, but there's a difference between having a good premise and flaws in execution, and having a flawed premise and compound it further with flaws in execution. Saying any further might add spoilers, but why would someone suffer through the entire film for something they weren't originally a part of?

Avoid.

Creep Van (2012)



Cheesy but a pretty entertaining, bloody indie horror.

>>: B

The ABCs of Death (2012)



Nice anthology idea but didn't enjoy much as a 2 hour long such anticipated anthology package. Liked mostly C-D-T & X. Other than those, some were semi-decent, some were nonsensical (or I didn't get at all), some were freaking weird & hilarious but not as good or interesting as I thought would be.

>>: B-

Seven Psychopaths (2012)



Not as good as In Bruges, but a fun watch though.

>>: B

Hitchcock (2012)
