Watched Hitcher 2 last night...Great movie...I just wish I knew where my copy of Hitcher went:mad:

Watching all of the Tremors today...Already watched 1 and 2, I'm in the middle of part 3 now, I'll probably have to watch 4 when I get back from my niece's (or nephew's...I can't remember which of my sister's kids is having a birthday today...That's pretty bad, huh? :D...I got a gift that works for any of them...lol) birthday party.

I really like Tremors...The sequels, as usually happens, steadily slide downhill, but they're still worth watching

I like all of the Tremors... they're silly fun right down to the last one. I'm surprised somebody other than me liked Hitcher 2! They made a pretty bold move in that one and I thought it worked.

Switchblade Romance(aka Haute Tension,aka High Tension)
This is one of the best Horror movies of the last ten years imo,a stylish,brutal,gritty and intense movie.The frenetic pace coupled with some truly disturbing violence make for compelling viewing,the Actors were above average in the main and I thought the soundtrack was used very effectively.
The "Twist" ending doesn't do it for everyone(I personally like it),and you can pick holes in it if you so chose,but even if you dislike the conclusion it shouldn't detract from what is a remarkable Horror movie.

P.S Switchblade Romance is a much better Title!

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

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.

I fucking loved this one too; it actually moved me when I saw it in theatres. It's beautiful.

Then I started hearing a lot of hate for it around here, and when I recommended it to people around here I got nothing but negative feedback. I can't understand how you can't be blown away by this film.

My three favorites of 2006 are:

1. The Departed

Last night I watched a movie called "Quest for the Mighty Sword". Basically a Conan the Barbarian rip off. Not even worth seeing for the cheesy bad acting... on the up hand it had this creepy monster..? 1/10

Ok, this was one of the strangest movies I've seen in awhile. It wasn't really horror as much as an action/drama type of film. It didn't really hold my attention and it was very slow, but yes I did finish it as I do with all of my movies. I got this in the "Tormented Souls - Blood Soaked Cinema" 12 movie set. Some of the other films from this set haven't been too bad though.

i think that title gives away the ending a little

watching SUBJECT TWO it is in full screen but i am trying to get through it it seems to be a retelling of frankenstien and just for good measure the doctors name is Franklin Vick like victor frankenstien let you know how it goes when i finish.

Well, I just got back from a nice weekend vacation up to Lake Superior and like all of my vacations, it rained about 50% of the time so we watched a few movies in the hotel room... Here's the rundown.



The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (Original)

Well, this has officially joined the ranks of Nosferatu as another silent classic that I just couldn't seem to get into. If I didn't LOVE Metropolis & The Hunchback of Notre Dame, I'd think I just wasn't a fan of silent films, but I guess I just found Dr. Caligari and Nosferatu to be rather boring. I still show these films a certain degree of leniency in grading howeverm just out of respect for what doors they've opened within the genre.

C-





Reno 911: Miami

Yikes! Love the show, hate the movie. Apparently this is only a concept that works in 23 minute doses because this movie just was lacking everything, including plot and a flow of humor. Sure, there were funny parts here or there but not consistently enough to make for an even remotely funny movie.

D




Night at the Museum

Fairly imaginative script executed in a fairly predictable fashion. This wasn't terrible and it wasn't great. Like so many other films, this falls into the mediocre category.

C+





Smokin' Aces

Well, it was a little slow to get moving, but that was okay because there was an intricate storyline being set up. Once the action hit, it hit hard as members of the all-star cast became corpses one after another. Everything was going great in a very True Romance style, and then they tried to get clever. They twisted the end up and tried to make it shocking when there really was no need for it and in my opinion, ended up detracting quite a bit from the overall entertainment value of the film. It was cool, but it coulda been something awesome and it wasn't.

C





The Hitcher

With the exception of 1 pretty awesome & unexpected scene , this movie was pretty run of the mill. Nothing impressed me, but nothing was so bad that I feel the need to call it to attention either. It was incredibly... run of the mill.

C-

Smokin' Aces

A fun action romp that kicks tons of geeky ass, but falls a little short in its inability to provide a "hero" to root for. I get it. It's fun. It's cool. It's star-studded, but it isn't as great as I wanted it to be.

That said, it's an uber-macho B-movie shoot-em-up worth anyone's time.

I know...it was just pathetically bad. Not "so stupid it's funny"...all the jokes in this one flopped completely. I think I chuckled about once. I would never, EVER see this movie again.

I watched "the shooter" at the movies today.
It was pretty solid. The plot was pretty simple, but it was all fairly well put together. Some VERY good action scenes, and it was pretty well gored-out in parts too, which is always well...more funny than anything...all good.
I liked it a hell of a lot more than training day.

This was a much better movie than I expected and most definitely worth a viewing. Simon Pegg does a very convincing american accent.

OK! I may be the only one on the planet, but I DON'T THINK that it's quite as astonishing as most people claim. The acting is fantastic, the story is great, the plot, violence (when present...) But.... I think it's just not my type. So, even though alky will have my neck for it:

Watched a screener of a DTV movie [ I don't think it got a theatrical release] coming out in June called " Big Nothing".It stars Simon Pegg [Shaun, Hot Fuzz] and David [Friends] Schwimmer. This was a much better movie than I expected and most definitely worth a viewing. Simon Pegg does a very convincing american accent.

Thanks, bro. It looks interesting, and I might check it out.

Who says PG-rated horror films can't be good? Well, usually... I do, but not in this case. An early film from Steven Spielberg, this movie builds more suspense with 1 guy, a mysterious truck and miles of open road than a lot of other movies do with tens of millions spent on budget. I wasn't real pleased with the ending because it didn't offer much closure, but overall this is pretty entertaining and plus, it's one you can watch with the kids.

Mannaja: A Man Called Blade

Sergio Martino (Torso) directs one of the last Spaghetti Westerns with too much smoke and not enough blood, but tons of machismo. Starring the charismatic hero of several great poliziechi (Italian Cop flicks), Maurizio Marli who lets his hatchet do the talking, Mannaja is loaded with themes and set-pieces that echo Martino's Giallo background. Not exactly a thinking man's film, but I get off on this kind of macho bullshit.

If you're into Italian genres, go for it.

The third and fourth shorts were my favourite, of course being directed by Robert and Quentin. The second was good too, but I didn't at all care for the first. I got the idea it was a homage to those 70's romp movies, which I find hilarious, but it didn't do it that well IMO. Glad I saw the flick, but it's not my favourite piece of work from RR or QT.

The first was forgettable while the second was missing just a little something to push into onto the same level as the last two. I liked the movie as a whole but probably could have just seen the last two parts fleshed out more and been ok with them cutting the first couple. I liked the way they tied into each other with the little things like phonecalls etc...

Open Season

Well, I don't know... After films like Toy Story, Finding Nemo and Madagascar it takes a little more than cool animation to impress me with a family film these days. Some of them tend to get too preachy, but that wasn't the problem with Open Season. The problem with Open Season was that it just pretty much sucked. Martin Lawrence and Ashton Kutcher combine for about one gram of funny between the two of them and the plot to this was just lame.

Don't waste your time on this one, there are better family friendly films than this one.

What could be better than low-budget slasher film full of a bunch of my favorite punk bands (Me First & The Gimme Gimmes, Rancid, Pennywise, Tsunami Bomb, Atmosphere, etc...) Well, evidently the answer is just about anything. Take away the soundtrack and this movie SUCKED! Bad acting, super stupid story. On the plus side though, Lloyd Kaufman has a pretty prominent role and they did make the most of their low budget and seemingly spent most of it on gore. It just wasn't very entertaining.

Damn, I forgot about region 2, 3, etc, I guess I'll just get 1, and 3, and 4 on dvd, but I don't think number 2 is on dvd.

Phantasm II is not available on Region 1 DVDs...and the problem with releasing a box set of all 4 movies in it is that different studios own the sequels of Phantasm.

There was some talk about the director of the movie, Don Coscarelli, releasing a Region 1 box-set of all 4 movies sometime in 2005, but those rumors died down, quite possibly because Coscarelli didnt get the green signal from all the studios involved.

Just got home from watching spider-man 3...aside from a few issues with character history butchery, some corny-type romance...and HUGE consolidation of quite a few events...it was probably the best of the three, IMO, the storyline was knitted together quite well...Venom was done well enough to not look completely stupid, and sandman was just awesome...
Great visual effects, and the fight scenes, as per the last two, are getting better as they go along.
I enjoyed it...wasn't that much better than the rest, but I liked it a lot.
It's safe to say if you liked the first 2, you'll like this.
8/10

Oh...and the campbell cameo was great this time...it's hard not to laugh.

3 Extremes II
It wasn't as good as the first installment... but I guess it was alright. Nothing really blew me away, but the third and final story was close to doing just that. In order; the third, the first, then the second. I didn't like the style of the second, and the first made little sense, but I loved the third. Worth a watch if your into different region horror shorts.

Peaceful Warrior
Different then your typical overcoming-challenges movie. It didn't focus so much on the physical-side of training, rather the psychological-side. Like the message in the movie states (it's the journey, not the destination) we are left with a "cliffhanger" ending - further enforcing the point that it was the journey we were to watch, and that the film isn't your typical train-fight-win in the style of Rocky, for example. It was okay, nothing too blow-me-away... but it was well-crafted and worth a look. If your into the softer-side of sporting movies, try this out.

The Lost Boys
It was fun, I wish I had watched it as a child though - still held up today, but I mean... it would be so much better with that nostalgia added to the impact. Is Corey Feldman ever NOT irritating? Every role he plays seems to annoy the living frick' right out of me. Some moments were hilarious (unintentional, I assume) and I wouldn't really go in looking for a serious film about vampires. It's just plain fun. Solid movie.

"The gravedancers" 7/10



Awesome evil-looking Demons, a weak story and some colorless actors obviously makes a pretty decent horror movie. All thanks to the creature-creators that is.

The last 10-15 minute seemed a little rushed though. Like they ran out of money and had to settle with 1st takes (Like the scene where the demon with the axe throws the guy over the chair. Come on, it was so obvious he threw himself over the chair, even a child would have noticed it, for crying out loud!!!)
Not to mention the car chase in the end. Those last 5 minutes were just ridiculous.


But i will recommend this movie just for the demons alone. Coz they were fucking :cool:.

Why not, they obviously woke up one morning and decided they wanted to be in a movie, and probably so did he. They sound as if they are reading from cue cards, at least he doesn't sound THAT bad. ;)

But really, I'm not sure, I haven't seen a film with him in it. I will make my call then. As far as Mark Wahlberg goes, I have never felt he was a very strong actor, though he has definitely had his moments for sure (Boogie Nights). I guess I just have to get past the disaster that was The Planet of the Apes remake.

Spider-Man 3. 07/10


This summer's biggest blockbuster yet? I doubt it.

Lots of fast-paced CGI action, 1-2 plotholes but ok script, decent direction and good performances.

I thought Maguire gives his best in this one, out of the 3. But out of all characters, James Franco (Harry Osborne) stands out as the best, and I thought Topher Grace as Eddie Brock did a great job. The little stint of Bruce Campbell in a cameo is one of the highlights of the movie. Thomas Haden Church, Kirsten Dunst et al are ok...not great or brilliant...but ok.

Overall, out of the 3, I think this was the best one yet (at least better than #2). Its just the right mix of CGI and emotions, and its one wild ride.

Great slasher film. Acceptable acting, good gore (especially considering the low budget), and a cool story. It should be considered an essential film to see by anyone that wants to think of themselves as a horror fan.


A-




Friday the 13th II

Well, this is far more routine of a horror film than the original, but the continuity is good, except for 1 glaring error. It's supposedly only 1 year later, yet Jason has quadrupled in size and aged from a boy to a full grown man. I don't get that, but if you can overlook it, this is a pretty good sequel.

B+

It was so-so, I think this is one of those where I would have rather seen the creature more simply because it was pretty obvious what it was and where it was from. They really shouldn't give away most of the mystery but then keep the creature hidden.

The Condemned. 05/10

The "re-make" of Battle Royale hits the Hollywood screens WWE movies-style (remember See No Evil with Kane), with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and Vinnie Jones( Juggernaut, "X-Men") heading a badass cast.

And the movie, hit-and-miss. Where BR was more brutal, and shocking to watch, here we have condemned killers going at each other. Scenario...same. Purpose...same. Sympathy or Empathy...none.

Somehow condemned killers dont arouse much sympathy and shock value. And it isnt the same to relate with this movie, as it was with BR.

The direction is decent, and there are some pretty good performances from Austin and Nathan Jones (if you remember him from the WWE 4-5 years back)...

Worth a watch if you have nothing else to do. Otherwise, skipping it wont be missing much.
