Having a few friends over for some old-school sleepover marathoning. Just finished our first film, and while everyone's running to get more snacks or taking bathroom breaks, I thought I'd fill you guys in.

There are 4 people, including myself... so the ratings out of 4 just are like... our of the 4 people, so and so liked it.

Slumber Party Massacre
Boy, this was fun! It sort of mimics our situation, considering the whole sleepover aspect. Sadly, no one was murdered during - or before - the viewing of this film. Very slick. It has a modest runtime of 70 minutes and it works perfectly (I hate drawn-out movies that simply bulk up to fill 90 minutes.) The murders begin right away, and continue up until the conclusion. Visually stunning. Loved the witty camera tricks (the peep hole drilling, the drill between the legs, the real life / film cutaways, etc) and the overall look of the film. The quality was stunning on the transfer, but I was *so* glad it still had the film dirt, dust, scratches and cigarette burns. It gives the film such a great feeling. Everyone was laughing throughout this film. The real-life dialogue and conversations were great; and like all good slashers, gratuitous nudity and horny teenagers (Playgirl makes an appearance!) I'm surprised this one isn't mentioned more often. So much fun! Everyone loved it, so 4 out of 4.

The Burning is up next. If someone doesn't loose a hand trying to work the blender...

Did a little theater hopping this evening- and what a theater hop it was!

Gone Baby Gone (2007)
Incredible. Seriously- the best film of 2007 so far, and an incredible landmark in the careers of Ben Affleck as a director and Casey Affleck as an actor. A perfect movie. Four stars.

Michael Clayton (2007)
An absolute thrill to watch, and I'll be damned if Clooney doesn't have an enormous shot at Best Actor this year for this impeccable performance. Suspenseful from beginning to end, and the finale will send shivers down your spine.

Two of the best films of the year, without a doubt.

Catacombs

The first FEARnet original film was actually a lot better than I was expecting, but still not a great film. The atmosphere was good and what was looking like a pretty lame cliche film actually turned everything around in the last ten minutes with a surprisingly cool ending. It's worth a watch if you're bored. It was entertaining enough that I would check out the next film FEARnet makes based on this one.

C

Live Free or Die Hard

This was entertaining. Bruce Willis was great in his reprisal of John McClane and Justin Long did a good job in his first big starring role. The only thing I wasn't real crazy about was the cyber-terrorists unexplained ninja capablities. That didn't quite sit rightr, but all in all this is a fun ride and a good addition to a strong franchise.

I was sooooo disappointed.

"From the creators of narnia..". Pfffffffth!!!!

It was like the people behind the story had absolutely NO idea where they wanted to go with this movie. So they added a little bit of everything in a desperate attempt to catch the entire family watching this mess. They failed...

I loved the book when I was a kid, one of my favorites, and knew what to expect, so I also liked the movie a lot. But yep, the trailers totally misrepresented the film. I can definitely see why some were disappointed because of that.

The Gore Gore Girls ~ now THIS is what I was expecting from a HG Lewis film. Completely ridiculous, cheap and over the top. Gory, and fairly entertaining as long as you aren't easily offended or easily grossed out.

Bridge To Terabithia is a wonderful movie.

Sorry to hear that some of you didnt like it...and I am guessing that came from looking at the trailers and posters, which gave all the wrong impressions about it.

It dwelt on one of the most fragile emotions of a child, the imagination...and how parents should cope with it. I thought the makers did a great job in conveying that message. A true gem of modern movie-making.

10-20-2007, 09:08 AM

Don't you think that's kinda cheap though?

Yep it sure was.

They should not have advertised it falsely, but since the audiences were going for LOTR, Harry Potter and Eragon type movies...I can see where the producers were going with it.

Yet, all they had to do was advertise the book (or the TV movie of the 80s). That would ve given them much better results, critically AND at the box office, both.

For such a strong movie...it was indeed a cheap gimmick.

The effects were great, as was the acting. The story was very straightforward and the action is pretty fast paced right out of the gate. Overall, this is a pretty entertaining action flick. My main gripe is that it was 2 and a half hours long.

John Cusack is a great actor. This story was intentionally confusing until the very end, but it clears things up pretty well once you get there. There's not much gore, but that's alright because it's a psychological film and it's rated PG-13. Normally, I think PG-13 horror movies suck, bu this one was one of the exceptions.

B

Planet Terror

This was awesome. I loved it. Cool plot, tons of sloppy gore, funny characters and great effects. I think the only thing holding this one back from an A+ grade is the intentional editing goofs and missing reels. I realize that it part of the nostalgic effect, but the sloppy editing was annoying when it wasn't intentional and it's still annoying when it is.

The good thing is there is no flesh eating giant killer shrooms...as I doubted first;)
But the shrooms have some effects on the person who else eats them! Like having foresight (seeing the future.... or even who the next victim will be!?!), or sometimes open a portal to another dimension.... mainly hallucination.
Overall, it’s a mediocre slasher flick with a fair ending.

Hillside Cannibals

I got this a week ago, but haven't watched it until now.

It is supposedly based on Sawny Bean a Scottish Cannibal from about 400 years ago, who lived with his mostly inbred family on the western shores of Scotland.

The only comparison to that and this film is Sawny Bean is the character's name. He has somehow managed to find a hideout on the Californian coast, some 400 years later, did he have a time machine? How did he get there? And according to the history books - he was captured and hung, drawn and quartered. Well for someone who has lived for 400 years and was dis-embowelled and beheaded, he looked remarkably well - until he dies of a heart attack? :eek: :confused:

The effects are quite good, featuring one scene where a cannibal cuts the fingers off his victim, then eats them - finger-licking good ;)

The victims here are seemingly just that, do we really care if they die or not - well three die within the first 15 minutes, so we don't have time to care. Later on another family are attacked - they are on the screen for oh, at least 5 minutes and are there simply to show another effect.

I can't really say this film is the worst, I've seen, simply coz I feel asleep before it ended - I re-wound it just to see the ending and to be honest wished I was still asleep.

You know how bad a film is when you look at the time and realise its' only been on for 20 minutes, and there's till another 70 to go *sigh*

I'll give a 2 out of 10, simply because it only cost a £1, though perhaps that is a £1 too much.

SAW 4.
I didn't much like the third one at all...but next time I see 4, I'll probably catch #3 again before it, they tie in just a little more than the rest of them did.

The movie itself, aside from one or two factors of confusion was not bad at all. I liked it a LOT more than the third (although I still think the first was the simplistic best of the lot), probably better than the second as well.
There's some fucked up shit going on, also a REALLY good back story for Jigsaw, which made the film for me.
Fans of the series should like it.

SAW IV. Focuses more on the police team. Loads and loads of traps/games, but none really stand out. Some backstory. Jigsaw's penis. Some timeframe alterations. Lackluster twist.

In the end, the SAW movies are about the traps and the twists. This one delivered both, but neither were any good. Actually, the twist was downright awful.

Hostel 2

Is it just me or do these Hostel films move really slow for the first hour or so? I thought the original was boring for the first hour, and the same holds true here. This one had a better plot and character development than the original did though. The gore was horrific and plentiful, but only for the last half hour.

The story was jumping all over the place aswell, I'm not sure if it was a bad script or bad editing.

good gore though if that's all your after.
