Last Seen 70s/80s Movie

[Posher778]

You are soooo gay...


Still waiting/hoping for a remake of this franchise.

Thought the story in this one was incredibly confusing. And i can't stand the "superhero" action.

That being said, it's one of the better RE movies.


Am I really gay if i'd totally marry/sex/ravage Milla Jovovich? She isn't an incredible actress or anything but if you watch her in interviews and stuff, she's one of the sexiest personalities alive in my opinion.


I agree though, even though I enjoy the franchise movies for what they are, entertaining, no brainer (hurr hurr) action movies, I think a true horror version would be intense.

[Straker]

Just watched Exorcist 2: The Heretic....worst movie I've seen in a really long time. I would have enjoyed it more if out of nowhere a person ran in and shot everyone.

Don't let it put you off watching The Exorcist III...

The Master (2012)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/08/TheMaster2012Poster.jpg/220px-TheMaster2012Poster.jpg

Finally got to see this tonight. I don't want to get too much into the film without seeing it a second time, but I will say that it's a confounding and fascinating experience, if not occasionally frustrating. A logical step in Anderson's ouvre, The Master is an almost-abstract character study/studies, a nearly microscopic examination of two characters (but mainly the one, Joaquin Phoenix's) and the strange gravitational relationship they share. It eschews nearly all back-story and explicit motivations in favor of stewing in moments. It is also one of cinema's great study of faces. Framed in tight, telephoto shots, we can see the subtlest internal movements transmitted on the surface. And that's to say nothing about the 65mm spectacle of the whole thing.
Definitely recommended, but it will warrant and deserve an extra viewing or two.

[FreddyMyers]

IP Man is an awesome movie! I was a bit disappointed with the second film, it got a bit unrealistic with it's fight scenes, felt out of it's element.

Couldn't agree more. First one was one of the best martial arts movie ive ever seen. Second one was a let down. Why go in that east vs west kinda direction.

[Dara]

I watched The Cabin in the woods which was entertaining and featured evil Unicorns so I was best pleased.
I also saw The living and the dead,a difficult watch .The sons descent into psychosis was brilliantly done and although it makes for a depressing view I highly recommend it.

Yeah, that is definitely one of my BOTTOM TOP 5. Long and boring as all get out. I put that movie in when I have insomnia. Puts me right out every time.

As others have said though Exorcist III is a great movie.

[ImmortalSlasher]

i'd agree with that. but about 10 years ago. have you seen her now? she's a fuckin cow

I agree,she has washboard tits.Therefore looks like a man.

You guys are crazy. I would post a pic of Milla Jovovich in Purple Magazine but I'm sure it's against policy.


The Thing from Another World

I've been holding off on watching this movie. I started watching this yesterday but unfortunately something came up. However the first 30 minutes or so were easily better than the recent version. But I don't think it will top Carpenter's version.

[realdealblues]

Couldn't agree more. First one was one of the best martial arts movie ive ever seen. Second one was a let down. Why go in that east vs west kinda direction.

I got to watch Ip Man 2 last night. I didn't like it as much as the first but I still enjoyed it. I understood why they went the route they did though. During that time period when Ip Man moved to Honk Kong you did have a lot of that British vs. Chinese sentiments going on. Ip Man didn't fight a British Boxer as far as I know in real life, but it works on that Rocky 4 mentality. They were being oppressed and here, one "humble" Chinese man stands up for the whole country and beats the arrogance and vanity of the ruling class into the ground. Movies like that always sell tickets especially if you live in the country that was being oppressed.

Still as excellent as I remembered it. Yes it resembles Spoorloos and The Duel a bit, but still stands on it's own, and surprisingly stands the test of time as well.
Superb little edgy nail-biter. Recommended to anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

The Corridor (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1602617/) (2010)


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v623/Chronogrl/the_corridor_zps2f3d0b4a.jpg


This is one of those rare, quality indie horror flicks. While it does have its faults (someone who shaved his head instead of having bald makeup, for example... And at some some pretty poorly exposition), it's unique, has genuinely creepy moments, and had enough mystery and weirdness that I was just glued to the screen.

When I say "quality little indie horror flicks," it's of the same ilk of Dead End, yellowbrickroad, The Caller, etc.

I would say that the only dissatisfying part of the film was the ending, but it's probably because the story was so bizarre I'm not sure how they could have made it satisfying (and believe me there were a couple of cliched places that it could have gone but it didn't), so definitely cheers to that. Reminded me a LOT of yellowbrickroack in that it's bizarre, keeps your interest, and the end leaves you sort of perplexed.

Honestly, when it came down to it I really liked this. Wish that more horror films split the mold like this. Hats off.

3.75/5.

The Cabin in the Woods (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1259521/) (2011)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v623/Chronogrl/cabin_zps774f49cd.jpg


Uhm. Ok. Wow.

I was really trying NOT to keep my hopes up for this one because I was worried that I'd be disappointed... But to be honest, this is truly one of those rare movies that remind me of what I absolutely love horror, gives me hope for modern horror movies, and just satisfies me as a fan. Simply stated, it's a horror movie lover's horror movie.

I love the nod to pretty much every movie trope ever (though my boyfriend kept pointing out the very obvious and prolific Raimi nods which drove me nuts but that's OK)...

I have a slight qualm over the ending, probably just because the scenes leading up to the end were so ridiculously AWESOME, GORY, SCARY, and esoteric, I didn't want it to end... And also I think this is one of those movies that's almost too clever for it's own good, meaning the story is so odd, unique, and dark that no ending would be satisfying.

HOWEVER...




I was just pontificating over how incredibly neat it would be if they released an extended Blu-Ray edition that had 4 alternative versions, based on what they were about the "choose" in the basement (the conch, the Pandora's ball, the necklace, the movie reel, the musicbox) - Would there be any difference in the ending based on there choice? I think it would be a neat way to extend this concept of modern sacrifice having to be based on the victim's will - If their will is different, does the world end? o.O The geek in me wants to find out.


Oh. OH. And I cheered out loud when Sigourney Weaver stepped in the final scenes... GEEKGASM!!!!!!!

I ALSO totally and absolutely geeked out to the nod to Portal - I mean... As a horror-loving console player, I've pretty much just wet myself with excitement over that.






Ridiculously good. Also one of those RARE self-conscious movies that isn't annoying and pretentious. It was very fun, very well-directed, and acted, and thoroughly enjoyable.

HIGHLY recommended.


4.5/5.

Yeah the Purple magazine picture has nudity. By the way, I tried using the Attachments option in the Control Panel for some pictures and it wasn't working. Are attachments turned off on the forum? Maybe I'll just use my new photobucket.


The Dunwich Horror (1970).

I wanted to watch this after seeing the poster. Plus, it's Lovecraft which always gets me a bit interested. However, the movie sucks. It's barely interesting. The lead actress redefines the term "dumb blonde." It's like common sense doesn't work with her. The best thing about the movie was a seaside altar shot.

[Posher778]

The Cabin in the Woods- 9/10


For about the 6th viewing so far. I love watching people complain about it online when it was the most entertaining movie in a long time. Scream 4, Trick R Treat, and Cabin in the Woods would make for an EXCELLENT halloween party line up and I might actually do that.

[Fearonsarms]

The only word that comes closest to describing this film is "transcendental." And even that word is just the tip of the iceberg.

Quite possibly Ken Russell's best work, even better than The Devils, IMO. Fans of El Topo and other Jodorowsky works would love this one. Watch it after midnight, when the sounds of the living world have died down, and have your speakers set to surround mode. You will love the experience, if you are a surreal film fan like me.

I was really impressed by this found footage anthology. I was concerned at first since it had received some mixed and mediocre reviews on here, but ultimately I really enjoyed it.

Just as with any anthology, there were some films that were stronger than others (Amateur Night, The Sick Thing That Happened to Emily When She Was Younger - which made me jump and scream out loud, by the way; great jump effects, and 10/31/98, which was successfully scary but also just fun to watch the effects and see a filmmaker play with a sub-genre within a sub-genre. The main story arc was also very well-done and deliciously creepy.

Even the "weaker" films were above average found footage and fun to watch. Part of what I like about found footage films are the effects - Sure, some directors use "static" or the camera panning away to cover a low budget... But some directors are very clever when it comes to objects flying, appearing and reappearing, etc.

All-in-all, I really liked this movie and was honestly impressed. I feel like I'm a 2-for-2 now, watching two very strong horror movies in a row that give me hope for the modern horror tale.

Highly recommended. Don't let the fact that it's found footage turn you off. Lots of good stuff here.

I gave it the same score. I thought the first half was amazing, but closer to the ending it almost began to lose the horror. Some parts I thought in the dream world seemed too fairy tale like.

I love the entire thing, especially showing us the Further, which other movies chicken out or just refuse to do because *blah blah use your imagination*. They showed you exactly what the netherworld looked like, and it was creepy! I loved the empty, melancholy feeling. The first 2/3rds of the movie is an atmospheric haunted house flick, and then you sit down in a little cart and ride a haunted house ride. That's what it feels like to me.

[Posher778]

The Uninvited- 7/10


I hate that lots of people don't like this. Considering all the truly horrible remakes and adaptations that were coming out in this time frame, this one is great. Emily Browning is a really good young actress, and when you watch the film a second time a lot of interesting things come to light.

I saw this once and the twist was a surprise. I'll probably see it again as Emily Browning was an unknown to me until I saw her in Sucker Punch.

[Fearonsarms]

Baby Blood (1990)
French horror comedy offering a lot of entertainment value and absolutely gallons of blood. Definitely not for everyone but its unabashed quirkiness really does work surprisingly well. This does mean that some of the scenes are a bit campy but in a good darkly comical way. I probably shouldn't like this but I actually did so I'll rank it as a guilty pleasure.

Magic (1978)
Thanks to Bob Grey and Dara for the rec!
I'll admit it was a little too slow placed but far intentionally funnier than I expected. Bit of a head wreck of a film this. It's weird you think things are going to happen and they do but then all of a sudden something major happens without warning and you're wondering if you missed a scene but you didn't. I don't think I can explain this but I'll try its almost as if the film is purposefully trying to misdirect the viewer's eyes as Anthony Hopkins' character does when he is performing. This is very clever and does indeed mess with your head. Also the dialogue between the lead and the dummy is lightning fast and parts of it just didn't seem to make any sense but that could be because there's far too much to take in one viewing but I'm not sure if I will watch it again cos of the uneven pacing that is very jarring to watch. All in all though I really wanted to see this film so I'm glad that I did because there really is nothing quite like it but some may find the viewing to be frustrating.

Glad you enjoyed it! I was terrified of it as a child!.I love revisiting films from my youth (the shuttered room,the beast must die,vault of horror,asylum ,theatre of blood etc ) as the stuff I found horrifying back then often has me in stitches today. Films such as 'Dont look now'+ 'The black narcissus' still terrify me ~its great when you find a film that has a timeless fear factor

[roshiq]

could give us a short description or at least what type of movie they are?..they look interesting and i havnt even heard of them

Frat House Massacre is a low budget slasher with plenty of gore, nudity/sex and a surprising funny-weird twist at the end. I think Elvis & Fearonsarms already seen it before & talked about it quite positively earlier in the thread.

The Lost Coast Tapes is found footage flick about bigfoot; boring & below average, avoid it.

Red Lights comes with a great cast...De Niro, Sigourney Weaver, Cillian Murphy, Toby Jones & Elizabeth Olsen; offering a seemingly interesting plot that eventually (& bit frustratingly) turns into quite a simple one about a team of paranormal investigators Margaret Matheson (Sigourney Weaver) and her assistant Tom Buckley (Cillian Murphy) facing a tough challenge against a world-renowned psychic Simon Silver (De Niro) who has resurfaced years after his toughest critic mysteriously passed away. I really wanted to like it (mainly for the cast) but it delivered nothing spectacular at the end. A decent but average & mildly entertaining thriller.

Not seen this in since it came out and it stood the test of time well. Enjoyed it immensely. I think reviews kinda dismissed it as a Welsh Trainspotting but this definitely has an identity of its own. Rhys Ifans and his real life both play 'the twins' - 2 drug fuelled, joyriding delinquients who get up in a world of bent coppers, dognapping and karaoke.

It has a great soundtrack too.

Munger Road (2012)

In the small town of St. Charles, four teens drive to the remote Munger Road section with a video camera, hoping to capture evidence of a local legend that says if you put your car in neutral on the railroad tracks, ghosts of little children will push you safely out of harm's way. Meanwhile, a psychopath who murdered six kids in the area years ago has just escaped from prison, and the town sheriff and deputy starts looking here & there to find him before an annual Festival starts the very next day. When the teens' car dies and their cell phones fails to get any reception, they soon encounter a shadowy figure that begins picking them off one by one. The cops, meanwhile, unravel secrets from the town's past in an effort to find not only the killer, but also the those 4 teens...before it's too late.

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g348/sanjidhdc/mungerroad.jpg

Though this slow-burn, low budget slasher (with some supernatural elements) offers a disappointing "to be continued" ending, but liked the way they treated genre's cliched "the night he came home" sort of theme with having almost zero onscreen killing/violence. The decent cast & its atmospheric tension driven approach actually kinda worked pretty well till the very end which surely will piss off many viewers. It all just needed another 5 to 10 minutes to reveal the 'twist' adequately & then could offer a hint for the sequel. Anyway, overall not bad.

The Devil's Business (2011)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g348/sanjidhdc/devilsbusiness.jpg

Like the other recent Britt drama/horror Kill List, The Devil's Business also concerns a pair of hitmen (but surely this is a better film than KL)...pro-old hand trigger man Pinner and his ambitious young sidekick Cully break into a rural home at night, awaiting the return of owner Kist, whom their gangland boss Bruno wants dead, with no questions asked.

With relatively short running time, small cast, limited domestic setting and convincing performances from the cast, this is a pretty well executed low-budget, mostly dialog driven Britt chiller that can be a worthy look for the old school genre fans.

Recommended.

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g348/sanjidhdc/VILE.jpg

A group of strangers finds themselves imprisoned in a house & soon enlightened by a video advising them that there is enough household items to torture themselves for excruciating pain which will produce the required, certain brain chemical that will be collected through a device attached to the back of their head.

Yup...another stupid torture flick but not too bad.

I Drink Your Blood (1971)

A favorite of mine.

[Posher778]

Easy A - 7.5/10

The Avengers- 9/10

The Tall Man - 6/10
I guess I liked this one. It wasn't what I was expecting at all. It's really more of a drama than a suspense, and more of a suspense than a horror, so many people here would hate it. It wasn't a bad movie, it just wasn't what I wanted it to be. I forgot that Jessica Biel was a good actress though, she was very believable.

Well of course it's off. It's not great, but at least it paid homage to the original without stomping on it. It at least had a few gruesome kills and good music.

But it's off in the wrong way. I did a review about it earlier about how it tries to be both a remake and a prequel. That in the end, it's a movie that wasn't needed. But I'm going to watch it a few more times to see if my opinion changes. But usually I have a feel for these things.

[Fearonsarms]

i did like it.
that pregnant chick was so fuckin hot

LOL glad you liked it :)

[Fearonsarms]

Glad you enjoyed it! I was terrified of it as a child!.I love revisiting films from my youth (the shuttered room,the beast must die,vault of horror,asylum ,theatre of blood etc ) as the stuff I found horrifying back then often has me in stitches today. Films such as 'Dont look now'+ 'The black narcissus' still terrify me ~its great when you find a film that has a timeless fear factor

You know what's weird-watching it now I couldn't remember a single thing about it (besides Hopkins and the dummy) so it was like watching a new movie. I guess as a kid I mustn't have watched the whole thing and was intrigued by the title which is bound to grab a kid's attention. But I am very glad to have seen it. I just got a copy of Horror Hospital in full uncut form which I do remember scared the hell out of me as a kid. I haven't watched it yet but when I do later tonight it will be interesting to see what I make of it now after all this time.

Batman: The Dark Knight Returns Part 1 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2313197/) (2012)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g348/sanjidhdc/TDKR3IN1.jpg

Like Under the Red Hood & the recent Superman Vs the Elite, this is another superb addition to the DC-WB animated film series. But damn! the film also made me quite frustrated as I haven't read Miller's original 4-part issue The Dark Knight Returns series yet! So did a bad thing...read about it briefly on wikipedia and get all the major spoilers for the next part which made me even more excited about Part 2...cause surely that's going to be a brutally epic film for the BATFANs!

Great adaptation of the Poe story about religious fanatics circa 16th century. Lance Henriksen takes a great turn as the Grand Inquisitor, one of his best roles IMO.

The Barrens (2012)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g348/sanjidhdc/Barrens.jpg

On a weekend Richard take his family (in a "get closer" mission) to the New Jersey Pine Barrens. Besides few issues between his new wife & the teenage daughter from the first marriage, it gradually becomes clear that Richard is acting bit crazy lately as he has actually his own problem of having paranoia & delusions about something lurking in the dark of the woods (more precisely...about Jersey Devil!). Along with a good cast, Stephen Moyer delivered a good show on the lead as a psychologically troubled daddy and as a DL Bousman film, it was shot nicely with a good production value, low body count & few off-screen killings.
The thing is there's nothing new in the plot. As you can guess the film tries to play with the viewers about whether all those paranoia & "seeing things" by Richard is real or not and this is no more new to the genre fans. So the story somewhat fails to give anything exciting in the whole package. Moreover, I think the way they portray a huge figure for Jersey Devil in few glimpses, physically it's quite impossible for a creature (with such a figure & shape) to move so fast & swiftly without making much noise in the woods.

Anyway, overall this is a decent film with just another average story.

[ImmortalSlasher]

The Burbs.

I remember seeing this one in theaters when I was young. I still love it. All of the characters are great. Especially Rumsfield. I don't think I realized a lot of the horror elements when I was younger. On the wiki it says that one of the homes was also The Munsters house. The music plays up the horror feel at times and many of the Klopeks seem to be horror character types that I still haven't clearly figured out yet. Not to be missed if you haven't seen it.

Interesting British film. Sure as hell beats all the freakin' remakes Hollywood has been cranking out.

Just watched Tremors for like the millionth time. I love this movie.

[fyfjoe]

Red Room- This movie is summed up with one big what the fuck! Super low budget film about 4 people brought together to play a "kings game" where they draw cards and have to do what the person who drew the kings card says, all with the chance to win 1 million dollars. The stuff that went on in this movie, while not as graphic as say "A Serbian Film" or "Subconscious Cruelty" was almost as disturbing. You start to find out more about each character and pretty early on how they are each connected. I have picked up Red Room 2 and will watch it tomorrow.

Though I didn't much like her earlier films (few that I saw, including Surveillance) but this one is I think better or more well treated effort from Jennifer Lynch. I liked it for its simplicity in the plot & Vincent D'Onofrio's kinda cold-child like menacing performance on the lead as a cab-driving serial killer. Nothing great but a decent film with a fine little twist at the end.

I saw that movie when I was 8 or so... It was at an after school program and it SCARED THE HELL OUT OF ME.

I was on a swimteam and I was scared that, as I was swimming, the monsters were going to burst through the floor of the pool and eat me. It was actually a pretty horrifying experience.

Whooooooooo - boy. Where to begin with this disaster?...

First of all, I can't believe that this is the same director who created Martyrs, quite possibly one of the most disturbing movies that I have ever seen, and certainly one that has haunted me more than any other disturbing movie I had seen prior to viewing it.

Secondly, this really shouldn't have been pinned as horror. It's really more of a crime drama (I suppose) with a pretty heavy-handed message around the well-being of children from poor and/or abusive homes.

Among the many issues for me is that the Point honestly doesn't deliver - Laugier is trying to have a dialog with the audience in terms of how to truly "save" poor and destitute children from a system that "doesn't work." But, quite frankly, we don't see an adequate amount of the destitution or the "broken institution" to really have a case here.

Then there's the tone... First, it's horror (I mean, the name "The Tall Man" really connotes to me the delightful possibility of The Slenderman), then there's Small Town Conspiracy, then there's crime drama, all wrapped in a pretty over-the-top message which, honestly, could have been interesting if Laugier had gone with an honest, gritty crime-drama instead of trying to coat this in horror.

This movie was baffling to me, to be honest. It's not a horror movie by any means; it's a crime drama with a clear message that Laugier wants to get across, but it's only shoved down your throats in the last few minutes, and it's not a dialogue, it's a diatribe.

Utter fail, to be honest. Can't believe this was by the same guy who did Martyrs. Oy.

The Loved Ones (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1316536/) (2009)


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v623/Chronogrl/the_loved_ones.jpg


Ahhhhh, torture and exploitation. Not my favorite genre, but I lump this in with Mum & Dad; there's more to it than just torturing a kid. I appreciate that, here, the victim is a teenage boy, I appreciate the humor and the metaphors drawn to high school prom, and there were a couple of great scenes of a girl in a pretty pink dress acting like an absolute psychopath (talk about pointing out the insanity of prom, vanity, social pressure, etc.

I also have to say that the acting was fantastic and there was a pretty wonderfully creepy climactic moment that I didn't expect, that separated this from exploitation films that have come before. Also some great humor toward the end.

I think that Ferox will love this.

For me it's hard to give a rating as it's just not my genre.

Grave Encounters 2 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2231554/) (2012)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g348/sanjidhdc/GraveEncounters2poster.jpg

This sequel to the last year's highly overrated found footage horror takes its first 35 long minutes to get its new "crew" of annoying bunch into that haunted psychiatric hospital where all the shits began in the first film. This whole build up was quite unnecessarily long as it clearly wasted some damn good minutes of the film reel. The cast was okay & the lead playing as an indie film maker as well as curious online video-reviewer of the 1st film finely suits into the role.
Now, about the main segment...after they finally sneaks in to the hospital & the main show begins: liked the idea of adding a security patrol this time, the cheap frights (that strangely somehow managed to get some good responses in the 1st film from the "fans") with effects of "corporal ghosts" returns as expected & some were treated I think slightly better this time but in only 1 or 2 scenes (like that dude coming out from a little door & as he runs after them, the size of his bodily figure increases!) and by saying that I think as far I remember as a whole this one has less 'encounters' than the first one as they wasted some good amount of time at the beginning. And that's actually all about it. There were few fine ideas to scare the shit out of its viewers and even the ending tried too hard to be a smart or classy one but becomes an utter failure, as there's nothing new to add in the found footage arena. Overall, surely worse than the 1st one but one thing this film did good & that is, helped me to realize how well & better The Asylum treated a similar concept in one of their recent movie...100 Ghost Street: The Return of Richard Speck (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2297108/) and that's a better substitute for any of this 2 Grave Encounters films, IMO.

A notch down from ATM. Started out somewhat lame then picked up some steam as the film went on, then a confused conclusion. Very similar to the other possession films that have been making the rounds in recent years. Some creepy moments.

[fyfjoe]

Apartment 143

Filmed "found footage" style, a movie about a man and his two kids possibly being haunted by his dead wife. All in all it was ok, there were some cheap scare moments and it gets to them pretty early in the film. Could be classified as a possession film in a sense. The ending though, wow... pretty stupid.

Only 2 good things to say about Smiley.

1. The horror character Smiley is pretty great. Think a blend between Scream and Candyman.
2. Keith David had a small role in it. He's always a fun watch. Too bad he didn't have the lead role and this movie might have been good.

What ruined this movie for me was all the rest of the actors and the repetitive story. The story should have been a LOT better with a character like Smiley.

There's still a chance this could become a new franchise tho. Got potential.

The more I think about The Loved Ones, the more I like it actually. Having a fantastic climactic reveal like it did elevated it from "those kind" of movies for me. :p

I have a hard time with movies that are pure torture (not a judgement; just a comfort level thing), and this movie had a bit more going on, so I liked it more than, say a Mum & Dad. Robin McLeavy (Lola) toward the end was really funny; some great direction there as she goes utterly mad.

I think I'd actually go as far to recommend this movie, sans caveats.

How do you feel about THAT, eh??

Saw Tall Man recently too. I'm going to rewatch it because I think it was good, I just thought it would be horror. It was certainly just a dark drama.

Honestly, if he had started out with the dark crime drama tone and kept it throughout I probably would have liked it a lot more. This movie makes me think of Gone Baby Gone, which handles a very similar message, but does so effectively. I didn't think that The Tall Man effectively created a dialogue with the audience - The dialogue is, What is the right answer? How do we address the problem of poor and abused children with a system that doesn't work? - But I don't think that we really saw a broken system or really awful living conditions to build up half of the dialogue. It was just a diatribe on a topic that could have been interesting if done well, but I do not thing it was.

So strange and uneven. Makes me wonder where the movie started before production - there was a clear point that the director wanted to make, but it was just not successful for me.

Re: Ferox, Roshiq, and Fortunato's buzz about Mother - Been meaning to watch this for some time and tried it yesterday; wasn't in the mood, so I'll give it another try. I'm going to be honest; I felt sooo much pathos for the mother and son right off the bat that I had a hard time going any further because her just running out of the restaurant when he was clipped by the car broke my heart (and this is before anything really happened!!) - All I can think of was, "It can just go downhill from here. LOOK AWAY." :o Man, when did I become such a pussy???

I am glad you like it.

It's a fantastic little contemporary piece of cinema (that's why it finds a place in the HDC Top 200 of the 2000s (http://www.horror.com/forum/showpost.php?p=890915&postcount=35)) and more people need to see it to appreciate it for what it was.

Berserk, at it's absolute best. Try beating this intensity in a horror film.

Totally agree. I also think that it had a lot more going on than an average torture flick - I think that Lola's insanity definitely mirrors the teenage female compulsion toward beauty, popularity, and finding that "prince."

I was really reticent going into it just because I know where my comfort level lies when watching exploitative horror, so I was really surprised at how much I genuinely liked it (versus, say a Mum & Dad where I can say, "Sure, it's a very well-made film, but I can't say I liked it because it was past my comfort zone.")

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g348/sanjidhdc/SLH.jpg

As a low budget indie flick, I think this can be treated as a fantastic Halloween feature for family viewing! Found it pretty entertaining all through the way. A nice come back for Jeff Lieberman, who have made few pretty decent genre flicks back in 70's & early 80s like Squirm, Blue Sunshine & even Just before Dawn...one of my favorite 80s slasher! The only complain from my part about SLH is it's bit too long, considering its pretty simple & amusing plot line which I think could be better packed in only 60 to 70 minutes.

Thanks to Sean Keller for mentioning it on his watch list (in FB) for this year's Halloween, otherwise I haven't actually much heard about it before and it would go completely under the radar.

Storage 24 - Sci fi guff about a group of unlikable characters being stalked by an alien beastie in a storage facility.

There is really not much on offer to elevate the film above mediocre,the storyline has been done to death,the characters spend the first part of the film competing to see who is the most dickish and I didn't like the creature design.

The pace picks up a little towards the end,and a couple of splashes of humour at least make the final third watchable but it's too little too late.I think the writers got a little giddy with the final scene which felt tacked on and really didn't work.

The Thing (2011).

I've been watching and listening to this one a bit over the days. I'm trying to find the good parts. Really attempting to see if it's worth owning. Mary Elizabeth Winstead is one of those actresses who should be able to make a movie worth owning by herself. But this is The Thing. A prequel and in some ways remake of one of the best sci-fi horror movies. A movie that really takes away from the opening of Carpenter's The Thing if you've never seen it before. The 2011 version has good acting, a good soundtrack, and even the CGI isn't that bad. But that deep feeling of dread and paranoia is gone. Or it is certainly no where near as strong as in the Carpenter version. I can't bring myself to own this movie despite all of Mary Elizabeth Winstead's strong scenes. I even think her intro humming "Who Can It Be Now?" is pretty cool. I'll leave with a good two part video review I found which breaks down many of the problems with the 2011 version of The Thing.

Quarantine 2: Terminal.

I thought this one was pretty good. I love the stuff on the small airplane. This isn't a reality/found footage thing either which was surprising. I thought the original Quarantine was ok. But wasn't really needed as it was for the most part the same as [REC]. Maybe English audiences really hate reading subtitles. Anyway, the lead actress in Quarantine 2 is good. I believed the performances which is what matters. If you like the fast rage type zombies this is a good one.

Grimm Love - same story as the movie "Cannibal" by Marian Dora (which I also own and watched recently) about a man who searches through the internet for a person willing to be cannibalized, of course somebody replies. A quick google search will let you know it's all based on a true story. Grimm Love focused more on the story behind the two men involved. Keri Russell, while hot, is involved in an unnecessary feeling side story about an American traveling to Germany to research the story for her thesis. She gets the tape, watches it, which leads to one of the most awkward rushed endings I'd ever seen.

Cannibal- focuses on the acts committed by these two men, in graphic detail. One of the most infamous facts of the story is one attempting to bite the penis off of the other, then after removing it with a knife, feeding it to the man whom's penis it was. In the beginning of the movie "Feed" I believe this story was explored a bit as well.

I agree,it did sort of fizzle out towards the end,it had a lot of potential that was not quite seen through.

Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter - I didn't hold out much hope for this one,but it wasn't as bad as I was expecting.

The action sequences were on the whole fun to watch,although sometimes the effects were a little too cartoonish . I thought Benjamin Walker showed some promise and will probably go on to better things.

I was quite surprised how straight faced it all was and wonder if it would have been better played more tongue in cheek. 6/10

Slaughterhouse - Slasher film from the 80's that takes place in a (where else) Slaughterhouse. This movie was great fun. I'm surprised more people don't know about it. Plenty of dark comedy elements and some great practical gore effects towards the end. Although I could have done without the process of pigs being slaughtered shown at the beginning. Read some negative reviews online where people compared it to Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but I don't think that was the filmmakers intent at all.

If you like films like Intruder, some of the early Friday the 13th films, Blood Diner I'd recommend checking this one out.

The Howling-
First viewing believe it or not. I bought what I thought was a complete set of the films online and it turned out it didn't have the first two movies. So I bought those so I could watch them from the beginning. I thought it took a bit too long to get going but when it finally did it was worth it. The Werewolves were some of the better looking i'd ever seen. I also haven't seen very many "werewolf movies", and I remember watching Blood and Chocolate years ago where they turned into wolf dogs...i'm just glad that wasn't happening here.

[ImmortalSlasher]

REC 2.

I like this one a lot. A very good sequel to the first one and a big surprising twist. This one went in a different direction than the American Quarantine 2 Terminal sequel. I think I prefer the direction of REC 2. Even though Quarantine 2 is still good. But REC 2 really ups things with the twist. The reveal and ending is shocking. There is also a new type of kill I've never seen before by a kid. Definitely looking forward to seeing REC 3 now.

Sinister - 7/10


I had really high hopes for this one, and I thought it was surprisingly good. I'm sure some people will disagree, but I thought it was actually scary. The jump scares are well done and the suspense is better than I thought it would be. Lots of build up and foreboding footage. In all honesty, it's pretty disturbing. I think the reason I thought it was so chilling was because it's a very good mix of true crime meets malevolent supernatural force. The story is pretty predictable, but pacing and acting are great, with just enough comic relief to keep it scary and in tone without overdoing it like Insidious did. Another thing I really enjoyed was the amount of scares. Not too few, not too many. Go see it.

Though it wasn't a found footage flick but weirdly they filmed it somewhat like a POV feature. Pretty average stuff. Interesting fact is it was written by the writer of original Paranormal Activity(Oren Peli) & Asylum's Paranormal Entity. Seems Mr. Oren Peli also liked that rip-off of PA.

Alien: Resurrection- 4/10

I don't know. I give it points simply because it's Alien and there's that cool scene in the ladder room, but otherwise it's terribly written, terribly acted, and terribly executed. Not to mention an absolute bitch slap to the first 3 films. I read a Prometheus review where the hater said Alien 4 was better than Prometheus, and I have to say if I saw that person i'd want to toss them off a cliff.


The Crazies- 6/10

I rated this higher before, but after seeing it for the 3rd time, i'm not in love. I enjoy it, and it has some good scary parts and light humor, but it doesn't seem to get better with more viewings. Average, but nothing spectacular. Timothy Olyphant is sexy as ever though, as is Radha Mitchell.

American Horror House (Syfy)

Another bad Syfy horror movie. I watched because of Alessandra Torresani. She always has energy in her performances. We get to see some fan service of her in her undies a few times. There is also a good tongue/kiss death scene in the movie. Which I've now concluded isn't rare at all in movies. But this "movie" is still the usual Syfy garbage. Sometimes they make a bad movie intentionally, others they just show a lack of understanding horror movies and miss the point entirely. You are supposed to care about some of the characters. Not just see people killed.

Argo

This was great. The tension was ridiculous. I've never been that nervous watching a movie before. It really draws you in and makes you care about the characters and the story. Another great directing job by Ben Affleck in my opinion.

[Sentinel65]

Halloween III - Funny how this has nothing to do with Halloween storyline, read why, strange story. Not all that bad in its own right, but as a sequel it is. Trying to decide between 4-5/10
The Roommate - Is this even horror? I'm not sure, but I couldn't even get through it. 1/10
The Abyss - Disappointed in this one, really, painfully slow. The last segment was much better than the beginning, but sitting through 2 hours and 20 minutes just for that was somewhat boring. 3-3.5/5
Hellraiser 2 - This series is still going strong for me, still cool villains and a good story. 7/10

Juan of the Dead - A deadbeat layabout and his oddball friends try to survive a zombie outbreak in Cuba.The humour was hit and miss and the film at times got a little too silly for it's own good,even so I did have quite a lot of fun watching this zombedy. 6/10

Monster Brawl - No redeeming features whatsover.No rating.

Humans vs Zombies - Ditto ^^^.

Creature from the Black Lagoon haunts in a frozen lake!:D

What a terrible ending & a cheap costume!:D

But at least better than last year's Creature! and it got Michael Rooker on the lead!:)

Night Of The Juggler
Grade A action flick. frankly its criminal that this doesn't have a DVD release. Whole thing's on youtube though!

[zade]

just watched the sender, telepathy dream state 1982 horror / sci-fi balls but worth a look, very enjoyable 6/10 in my book

[Frankenstein]

The Thing prequel

Not great, but better than I expected. CGI a bit over the top at times, but all in all a pretty good effort all around.

[Bob Gray]

Planet of the Vampires 8/10

A great sci-forror flick for its time and had a major influence on Ridley Scott when making Alien.

What a piece of crap this was.

A movie about an urban legend about a killer who will kill someone on a videochat if you type in "I did it for the lulz"......

Seriously?

Who thought that was a good idea? That stupid premise alone nearly killed it for me. This is supposed to be a horror movie, i felt like i was watching a scary movie bit. This movie tries so hard to be Scream but barely even comes near it. The first kill which should be iconic and set the feeling for the rest of the movie was rushed, boring and not scary at all.

The characters are the most annoying, fakest, immature morons i've ever seen in a movie and if Smiley wasn't so stupid, i would've been rooting for him.

There are also so many visual flaws in this thing. There's scenes where you would see characters behaving a certain way but then it would switch to the videochat POV and they wouldn't be doing that even though you could still hear them behaving that way and sentences in the chat would be switched around mixing up who said what.

The acting is terrible, the writing sucks and nothing about it is scary. Avoid this one.

ChromeSkull: Laid to Rest 2

I barely remember the first one. But I decided to watch the sequel. It was short and had a few notable actors. But what a horrible movie this is. It's like the writer or director really hates women. The girls in this movie aren't just killed they are maimed in some of the worst ways I've seen. This is far worse than the one scene each in Hatchet 1 and 2 that I have problems with. Also the main girl is given a health problem I assume for us to feel bad for her or to continue the whole let's make everything bad for the women theme. Which by the way continues to the after the credits scene. Thomas Dekker should have his fill of bad horror movies at this point too. Avoid this one at all costs unless you like this sort of thing.

Dark Night Of The Scarecrow-Good supernatural horror with some quite believable characters though the acting was so-so but the elemental menacing mood is pretty enchanting and the gruesome death scenes were very effectively done. Recommended to atmospheric horror fans.

The Abominable Dr Phibes-Thanks to Dara for the rec. A very unique film with minimal delivery that really shows just what great presence vincent price has in his movies. The creative death scenes (including the legendary sprout juice death) are very garish and flamboyant and were certainly a direct influence to some of the puzzle solving scenes in the saw movies. Though as a warning I must say the film is aiming for an artists impression rather than story or characterization of the victims. This didn't bother me however as I couldn't help but smile at the lavishness of it all.

Dawn of the dead(1968

pretty crap really

Captivity.... Worst movie I've seen so far this year

[Nat94]

Sooo, last night I watched a few horrors, Excision, [REC] 3 Genesis, Abraham Lincoln Vampire Killer and Grace.. Excision I was dissapointed with and it was frankly quite disturbing, it reminded me of a couple of other Horrors I'd seen before, has anyone else seen it, thoughts?.. [REC] I liked it, I wasn't overly impressed but I liked how Zombie reflections were this strange creature and it played more on Gods punishment rather then a virus that was contracted out of no where, also it was really cute how when the just married couple died even though she was Zombie and had just bitten his tongue out, they still reached out to hold hands :) .. Abraham Lincoln was too hyped I think, don't get me wrong it was good but I thought it would be a lot better, definately Blade and Underworld over it anyday.. Grace surprised me, I didn't expect to ever see a film like that, a Zombie born baby and a mother that kills and breastfeeds for that baby is crazy, I was hooked I couldn't stop watching, it was one of the strangest films I've ever seen I think, one thing I didn't understand is that at the end the baby is teething, the mother is still breastfeeding but she doesn't contract the virus :S .. Anywho that's me done, comment your thoughts :)

I might watch this, just for the lulz :P

Anywho that's me done, comment your thoughts :) Hmm,The teething bit..Id say that when a baby is teething the teeth arent actually out,just causing considerable pressure behind the gum forcing them to chow down on objects to relieve the pain.So The baby didnt break the skin?? ....or something!!!

[Dara]

As for the Mother breastfeeding and killing for her baby.I find this completely plausible as id kill for my three sons as they can be demonic at times!
