I thought the most recent Evil Dead was more of a movie that took place in the same universe, with another group of teens who release the evil. The cut alternate ending seemed to confirm this but I wonder if we'll ever get an unrated release with the other endings.

The Martian (2015)

It seems in recent years that there is maybe one really good sci-fi epic each year. 2012 was Prometheus; 2013 had Gravity; last year saw Interstellar; and this year has The Martian. Each movie has their own distinct style and can be enjoyed for different reasons. Of the four, The Martian is probably the most light-hearted and fun to watch, but don't let my words fool you. There are some insanely intense scenes to be found here. Based on the novel of the same name, The Martian is about astronaut Mark Watney who is presumed dead after a violent storm and left behind by the crew. He actually lives and must survive on Mars for months with meager supplies and his own ingenuity. Ridley Scott directed this film, and he was desperately in need of a success after the financial and commercial disappointments of Exodus: Gods and Kings and The Counsler. Luckily, he delivers one of his most spectacular movies to date that's capable of making you laugh and putting you on the edge of your seat. The final act of the film is particularly nail-biting, drawing comparisons to some of Gravity's most terrifying scenes. But what makes The Martian such a hit is its heart. Besides its great humor and amazing characters, it emphasizes the value and integrity of the human spirit. It may not go into the more philosophical implications of those themes too much, but when a movie is this well crafted, that hardly matters. The Martian is up there with the other great sci-fi epics of recent years, and it's certainly one of the best films of the year.


Also, if a movie has "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor in the credits, it's automatically a good movie.

And Matt Damon's pecs.

10/10

Interested in what kind of writing you do. Probably safe to assume horror.

Couldn't agree more. Some outstanding and fairly unheralded performances in Exorcist 3.

Yep, horror with humor. I made a movie with some friends a few years ago. I'll have to send a copy to you.

I love this movie. It is so underrated.

Human Centipede III 7/10

2nd viewing and this is probably my favorite of the 3.

Love Brotherhood of the Wolf. Haven't seen it for awhile. Time for a re-watch.
