Loved it. Instant favorite. I wish I could have stayed in the theater and watched it again as soon as the credits stopped rolling. Definitely paid plenty of respect to the original. I think it even made use of some audio samples. Splatterific and demonically horrifying. Groovy is right. It will feast on your soul. |

LOCKOUT on BluRay.
Yknow, not bad. Decent sci/fi action flick. Don't think I'll keep it though. |
Saw Evil Dead (2013) last night.
Gotta say, I was pretty disappointed. Aside from the nods to the original(s) and a general outrageousness, it didn't seem elevated much beyond standard contemporary horror fare. |
High school psychologist, Jessie tries to help mentally disturbed student Eli who believes that his brother is returning from the grave for revenge on the students who killed him. Very mediocre, watched it only because of beautiful Mischa Barton who played the school psychologist. A small group of TV crew goes to Serbian forest to investigate a mysterious site of a secret Govt. research facility where 34 unidentified bodies were found in 1998. In that sites of unsolved crimes, they employ the gifts of a psychic whose extraordinary powers eventually turns up pretty provocative but helpful to get out alive from there. Though it's got a fine Grave Encounters like opening but overall quite boring 'abandoned site' horror flick. While at the same time two families comes to see a show home in a remote part of the woods, they discover a mysterious-terrified girl who has had her tongue cut out. They tries to drive to the hospital but keep ending up back at the house. And for hours they try to escape back to the main road but it seems the house doesn't want them to leave so easily & shortly. As the days goes by, two families gradually starts to descend into madness while trapped inside that deserted farmhouse. Another example of how a potentially nice idea can get almost ruined by a dull script & characterization. The ending was fine though. Six ambitious forensic undergrads are marooned on a remote island during a university field project. Unbeknownst to the group, the site was formerly used as an illegal biological testing ground for life-term criminals left for dead. But they aren't. They're undead. A decent, fun zombiesque action-horror flick. After lately seen her in American Marry, it seems Katharine 'Ginger' Isabelle is just getting hotter & hotter every day. ;) >>: B |
willard (2003)
Just seen the remake of this movie, I thought this movie being made in early 00s would be a lot better then first movie and a lot more stuff to happen in the movie and better done I didn't think the willard (1971) was great movie, I thought it was decent movie , I do think that movie was much better then this remake. I need to compare to first cause I only saw that 2 days ago, so in still really Fresh in my mind. I didn't really like this remake, cause willard bit stranger in bad, I found it a little confusing at times in the movie, I didn't really buy in connection with Rats at all. I didn't feel sorry as him as much I did feel sorry willard 1971 movie, they did a better story in this movie, when you get to warm to willard but in this remake it dose not happen, Felt they missing of the story in the movie. I got be fed with willard as he set up traps after the rats did him favor, That didn't seem to make sense to me. There are some scenes I just found silly, when the Cats come in the room and runs to chair and then turn stereo on which starts playing Michael Jackson Ben song That made me laugh so much, I found scenes very funny. Why did they mess up with the ending, first ending was so much better, This remake had me appreciate (1972) more. The acting this movie was decent but some of the scenes the acting just way of the top at times, it ends up looking really silly. 4 out of 10 Worth watching once! |
Evil Dead (2013)
Im very biased as my favorite movie is the original Evil Dead, but for what it is the re make isnt bad. I actually enjoyed it, but it definitely doesnt touch the original. I know every horror film likes to use the tag lines "the scariest" "the most terrifying" etc. etc. but I really kinda expected a bit more brutality in this. I do appreciate the nods to the original that was here and there, but it was totally different than the original. And while I did enjoy this more than most newer horror films, I still feel like it kinda seems too mainstream and go with the flowish. The original was more balls to the wall and fuck it lets do something different. But again, its not a bad movie, I would have probably enjoyed it even more had it not been called Evil Dead. 4/5 |

The Rats (2002)
I seen this movie a number of time now, first time two times , when came on TV about 10 years ago, I really enjoyed it back then It's was not as good as remember it but I didn't found the movie well paced, it dose not take long at all before the Rats start to attack people. About the middle part of the movie is gets little calm but more rats start to attack again and I really liked scenes on Train, The rats covered the whole train , was really cool scenes. The attack scenes were not to bad or that great. they went not to bloody but first attack was good a bit bloody at the start. as movies goes on the attacks scenes seem less bloody but a lot rats on the person getting attacked. The acting was really good from the cast in this movie. Decent Killer rat movie 6 out of 10 |

Mulberry Street (2006) here in the UK for some odd reason its' called Zombie Virus on Mulberry street (2006), Even the movie titled is Mulberry street , don't get the point of that at all. (I worse think about it their NOT Zombies they are infected)
I have seen this movie few times now, I really liked it, People are attacked by Rats but not killed only bitten by then. When you did get bitten by then you will turn into blood-thirsty rat creatures, , I reallly enjoyed this movie. I loved how transformation was slowly and you get tell how they change and the transformation was really good but there could have been a bit better. I don't think the movie was too gory, the attack can be a bit bloody at times, I did expect it to be a bit more gory The make up effect were really good in this movie, Rats attack was really good and Human-Rats were did look scary at times. Ending of this movie was really good really good but very sad in this movie, kind of the whole movie feel very depressing. Great acting from the whole cast 7 out of 10 |

Dark Skies (2013)
http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps9b8a491c.jpg Nothing great or original but a decent, time passing sci fi-horror. >>: B Insensibles aka Painless (2012) http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps534b7596.jpg This is a slow burn Spanish thriller with some horror elements that finely manages to interestingly blend two very different settings and times in Spain. The story moves back and forth between the central character David's present-day investigation to find his real parents and a sanatorium in Catalonia during the Spanish Civil War and yes, there's an obvious connection between them. The sanatorium houses imprisoned 'painless' children, whose innocent investigation of the world around them often has dangerous or bloody consequences as they have been given little reason to fear anything in life like fire, knives, animals...which are simply toys to these children. The storylines rarely seems predictable and is usually captivating but the narrative does drag a bit in the middle. I was expecting something spectacular like Martyrs and it didn't turned out anything like that at all but it definitely wasn't bad either. Like today's any fine Spanish horror or thriller movie this is also a pretty well made, good dark-thriller but that fairytale like ending was bit of a disappointment though. Overall, I liked it. >>: B+ Vamp U (2013) http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p...psb00c94bd.jpg It was silly & average but there were some funny moments. >>: C+ Girls Against Boys (2012) http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p...psf2177a93.jpg >>: D+ |

"OZ, The Great And Powerful" (2013)
Plot: When shady circus magician Oscar Diggs (James Franco) is hurled away from Kansas into the wonderful Land of Oz, he thinks that fame and fortune are his for the taking. However, three witches -- Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams) -- remain unconvinced that Oscar is the great wizard that the inhabitants of Oz need and expect. Reluctantly drawn into Oz's epic problems, Oscar must find out who's good and who's evil before it's too late. Phantom's Review: Highly entertaining fantasy film. Good performances from the cast, excellent direction by Sam Rami and amazing special FX. The nice thing is, you can believe these characters will actually grow into the iconic characters from the 1939 film. A fun movie for everyone. |
Tales from the Darkside: The Movie (1990)
What a awesome anthology, one of the best , I have seen in recent weeks, I loved it! The movie start with A witch who ready to Cook boy but want to read some scary stories from the book called Tales from the Darkside Frist story Lot 249 Is about student, Bellingham who whats Revenge after being framed from two people in Class and at he finds A mummy which he bring to life to kill them The mummy didn't look too bad at all, I did not expect the Kills to be a bloodily as they were. some really decent Kills scenes in this parts. This segment flowed really well and The twist, I did not see coming at all, loved that twist of the story, also found it really funny. 8 out of 10 first story! The second Story Cat from Hell Which I think was the best out of 3 Old man in wheel chair hires a Hitman to Kill a Evil Cat. The cats scenes were really well done, They did make the Black Cat look evil with the hissing sound and the attacks were not to bad at all, yeah, they may look a little bit dated now. Some of effect this story were great, I love the cat come out body, gross, I am sure that be stuck in head for few days after this movie. 10/10 Lover's Vow (Weakest of the 3) This started of really well, the creature was very strange but it didn't look scary at all but Kill scenes were really well gory and bloody again, which i really liked Then the story got a little predictable and new twist, 10 years before it happened, I could hide it a bit more. I liked how the twist came out, very nasty gory scenes, really well made . 7 out 10 The ending of the movie, I find that ending very cheesy, it kind of felt out of place a little This as got to be my favorite anthology so far I give this one 9 out of 10 |
Reflection of Death reminded me alot of the Lovecraft story, The Outsider.
The Punisher (1989 film) http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV...0,214,317_.jpg Watched this with a mate on Blue Ray - neither of us had seen it since it came out. Enjoyed the hell out of it - its trashy as hell, with the most heinous fashions and some fine racial stereotyping but despite all the this the film is NEVER boring. Dolph played a better Castle than I remember too. Sushi Girl (2012): http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV..._V1_SX214_.jpg I knew nothing about this going into (which helped) but this is an interesting enough Crime/Heist gone wrong drama. It takes it cues from Tarantino (in particular R.Dogs) but it has enough original touches to be interesting in its own right. Anyway, its worth watching to see MArk Hamill chew the scenery up as a camp, lecherous version of Oswald Cobblepot. Forget about Danny Treyo or Michael Biehn in this one - blink and you'll miss em... |
Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight (1995)
It's all starts of with Car chase and two people end up in the Some kind bar, when one of them is demon who after some Huge Key and other get stuck inside with person being chasing the person. This movie was a blast, I loved, it, I wasn't really sure at the start of the movie, where this movie was going but as this movie went on, it grab me and never let me go. There was some really great effect in this movie, I loved of Bloody gory effect in this movie, some were really gooey There were some really scary Scene that will make you really Jump, I jumped few times in this movie. Really well paced and I loved the way the movie ended! The acting in this movie was really good! 9 out of 10 |

The Last Exorcism Part II (2013)
I did not like the first one at all, I thought one of most boring movies I Have seen, Did not once get scared or creeped out at all, I thought it was The Worst Exorcism movie but then we suffered for even worse with Devil Inside 2 years later! Least this Last Exorcism 1 had some scarce scenes at least and tense moment in (Which Didn't work for me as saw them coming) and there in that movie unlike Devil inside and this sequel to the first movie Nell is trying to put her life back together and she has blocked out all things that happens to her in the first movie but soon they what her back again. This was really bland from start to end, there was not one moment that actually felt anything scary was going to happen any where in the movie, The only good think I can say about this movie is that, last 10 minutes of the movie was so-what watch able and something was finally hap ping in the movie and again it wasn't that scary at all and most of that scene see the trailer . I didn't mind the movie ended but story didn't really end! Yet another movie that show 95% of movie in trailer, Just watch the trailer skip this movie One other good think I can say about this movie is that the acting was really good from the cast but shame about the rest of the bland movie. 3 out of 10 |
I've watched Army of Darkness 3 times this week! Bruce Campbell is awesome. After watching the Evil Dead remake I was compelled to watch some Bruce!

Olympus Has Fallen
Best action movie I've seen this year. Highly recommended. |

Today I saw two anthology movies and both of those movies were called Camp Fire Tales lols
Campfire Tales (1991) This is very LOW movie, the movie did look cheap, I don't let that get in the way, As this turn out to be really decent after all, 3 boys about 12-14 years old go camping and then Bum or Home less man Join in and then he tell them 3 Stories The first story is about Young couple who making out the woods hear on the radio that o that a murderer with a hook on his right hand has escaped from the local insane asylum , So boy takes to her Home. This story wasn't to bad but It didn't feel creepy at all but there decent a mount of blood in this story, Which made it more watch able. 4/10 Next story was about two stoners who are looking for some drug and run into this strange guy who's selling these drugs. They take but next day, they notice them are rotting away slowly before try to get more before they rot away. The effect was not bad, very decent for low budget movie, 5/10 3rd story is about Man who come home for Christmas soon, he want is mother money so he kills her by pushing her down stairs so he leaves and goes to brother house to watch his kids One kids tell story evil Santa Claus known as "Satan Claus look who comes and punishes those who do evil things. When kids go to bed and then he stalked by someone, until come face to face with Satan Claus This story sound really good, they could I have done a lot more then that, Satan Claus was not that scary at all The acting was not that good in that story and it wasn't really that bloodly at all. 3/10 The Fourth and Finally story was pirate, who been shipwrecked and another Man warn the pirate about Zombie pirate if find the buried treasure but I as didn't care for what man said , he digs anyone and finds it. Soon Zombie pirate are out to get him and they don't look bad at all, they some make up effect looked really decent and some looks a bit odd but I don't think there scary at all. Then boys goes sleep and there is a little small twist, which anyone could see coming. None of the stories were that scary or creepy at all they just watch able I give this movie 4 out of 10 Now the second movie which Was Also called Campfire Tales (1997) This movie also starts in Black and white and also start with The Hook Man yet again! A Young couple who making out the woods and this time Girl thinks she see something out side and then she fews time and tell her boyfriends to take her home, He didn't believe her but then he stop at Diner and then he looks back at car and he see there was a Hook on the car Door. This story was being told by some teens in a car and the boy who drive-ring the Car and then start messing around by going too fast and then trying to Avoid another Car and end up crashing into the bushes. As they get out of the car they go to this old Church that had been torn down and tell 4 stories The first story is about a married couple in a RV who end up getting in Stuck in the wood and soon just start to have Sex but soon catch a guy looking at them and that guy warns then about a creatures in the woods. As they go off but then the RV runs out of gas cause there was leak and soon Attack are seen but its very dark that you can't see creatures that well at all, I wish they showed more of creatures. I did not find this story creepy or scary at all, I did like the last scenes was really well done I give this story 4 out of 10 Next Story is about young Girl who was Chat online, not knowing that she was talking to a Psycho, who starts to stalk her, while she is home alone and breaks in to her home. This is one was really good and it some really good creepy moment in this movie, it kind hint of the old slasher movie feel to, very well made. The last 2 minutes of this story was really good and the Psycho looks really scary 8 out of 10 I called the next story The Ghost story. A man is riding is motorbike and then soon stop near to House, when it's rains and he enter the house, then he falls in love with girl, soon strange things start happen in the house. He finds out the place is haunted and there another twist in the story! I thought the last story was very boring and very predicable , I thought it was the worst of the a lot. After that story was told, one of teens See Police flashing lights, which lead to a twist in the movie. i Loved that ending cause I didn't see it coming at all. Really good movie 7 out of 10 That took ages to write lol |
Iron Man: Rise of the Technovore (2013) An Iron Man flick with J-anime makeover! But loved that Punisher entry... Iron man: "let me handle this, castle." Punisher: "why donch you get the hell of the way, iron man? This is nothing to do with the rich idiot who dresses like hot rod.":D Overall, it was bit too long. Not one of the best of DC & Marvel's recent animated films. >>: B I Didn't Come Here to Die (2010) Not as good as Tucker & Dale but as an indie horror film it was a decent 'Woods of Freak Accidents' flick. >>: B Infected (2013) Not too bad as I expected but not good either. >>: C A Night in the Woods (2011) Just another very average found footage flick set in a woods but with better & tolerable characters. Considering the budget & camera works, it was decently made. >>: B- Bad Kids Go to Hell (2012) Found this Deadly Detention flick kinda boring. It was bit talkative & the frustrating thing was didn't get that mystery clearly about what those bad kids actually did so bad that make them dying one by one!? >>: C Welcome to the Punch (2013) A decent crime-action film from UK. Simple, easy to follow story & the cast was good. >>: B Identity Thief (2013) Mostly the main 2 leads made this is a fairly time passing comedy. >>: B- Expiration (2011) An okay South African survival horror about experiments goes horribly wrong with a Dead-ly outcome and a little twist at the end! >>: B- |

Alexandra's Project (2003) : http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-UfBuoU-W5w...ra+project.jpg A man comes home on his birthday to expect a 'surprise package' only to find a video tape left for him by his wife in his now seemly deserted home. I thought this started well, but it kinda lost me a bit by the end. The lack of sympathetic characters didn't help (or maybe that was the point). still good film though not a patch on the Bad Boy Bubby (by the same director). |
Skyfall
love Bond movies and this one didn't disappoint spoiler: loved seeing the Auston Martin again.......for the last time:( |
Hitchcock (2012)
I thought it was great. Brilliant actors. I believed that Anthony Hopkins was Hitchcock during the film. And the choices to play the actors in Psycho were spot on. A |
The Lords of Salem (2013)
Just saw the special 10pm showing. It is truly bizarre. It has its faults in some dialogue and the cohesiveness. I would suggest to anyone who really wants to see it to read the novel as well, because that puts the story together. 5/10 |
New Evil Dead
|
Mama
I think it was decent, but also a lot of cheap scares imo |
Evil Dead (2013)
This remake or reboot what ever you what to call it, it not as bad as other Classic horror remakes like Friday, Elm street and The Omen however I don't think was good as other remakes such The Hills have eyes and TCM remakes. I did expect a lot more from this movie after all the hype it got, I thought there would have more gory then it was. I thought there were some good decent gory scenes which Did like but nothing we not really see before and I didn't really find the demon creepy or scary at all. The rest of the movie, well it wasn't boring, it was fast paced Before I knew it was over . Again another trailer that shows the best parts of the movie that lead to the rest of movie not having many surprising moment which makes the rest of kind of predicable. The acting decent from most of the cast, I could not connect to them at all and effect was not bad but as fun as original I give this movie 5 out of 10 Average horror movie |
Final Destination 5
|
Scary MoVie (2013)
I thought this movie be really bad, I do like some spoof movies, I liked the other scary movies and I even some bad one such as Shirke you know what you did last summer, I didn't Not mind Not Another Teen movie , I thought those were decent movies, also really liked Superhero movie but This scary movie 5 is no were near as bad Disaster Movie (2008), Date Movie or Stan Helsing (2009) or Vampires Suck (2010) Yes is it the weakest of the series At the start of the movie, they tried way to hard to be funny, yet could have been funny, I don't think Benny hill music really worked with that scenes. The main spoof this movie focus on is Mama and Black swan and paranormal activity, planet of the apes and there are other spoof as inception and Evil Dead spoof. i Thought Evil Dead spoof was really funny, I laughed Few times in those scenes as for rest of the movie, I did found some scenes funny and other were Jokes goes a little to long and fall flat a number of times. I didn't really like how the movie ended, I didn't find ending that funny at all, I enjoyed it and I laugh a number of times but I did miss Anna, it dose feel a little strange her not being the movie, They were trying to go for a re-boot of series but kinda shot them self in foot with that. They must of cut some scenes out trailer, Some scenes trailer were not in the movie. Ashley Tisdale was decent but i didn't find her too funny as did the Cindy scenes in all scary movie. I really enjoyed 5 out of 10 |
