Stake Land: Post apocalyptic road movies seem to be in fashion right now and while I thought this was pretty good I wanted alot more. Loved the vampires and style of the movie but the story was too generic and kinda clumsy in its delivery. Our hero walks into the woods a boy and out of them a man, there's even a pretty young woman waiting for him at the other end. For a 'low' budget movie the acting is solid, Kelly McGillis (Top Gun) puts in an awesome peformance.
There were a few elements of the film that really bugged me but I'd definately recommend it. The vampires alone make it worth watching, a welcome change from the more typical 'super cool' vampires. |

In Time (2011)
The concept was fine but it needed a better story & some interesting, well developed characters which was missing. >>: C Catch .44 (2011) >>: C- The Ides of March (2011) >>: B

Whie Noise 2-The Light (2007) Was really surprised by this as it's completely different to the first film there's no connection to it at all really. Not without it's flaws (dodgy acting and too sugar coated FX) but still a refreshing change from the first film and by far the best of the two.

Battleground
Check out the great poster art from the Dude Designs HERE it's completely killer. Bit more of a slow burner than I expected but enjoyable all the same. Nice and subtle compared to the majority of action films these days which I appreciated. No doubt this will be a bit to "low budget" for most people but those who were fans of the lesser known action films of the 80s will get a kick out of it. This won't completely blow you away or anything but I thought it was decent and did a great job of getting the vibe of the period down. |
