sorry, but i'm lazy and didn't feel like writing a different post for this thread, so i'm using the one i posted in "the descent" thread.



i just got back from the descent and it definitely lives up to the hype. now excuse me for a moment while i become a critical bastard. the "oh shit" moments were great, but i think neil used a little too many-by the end they had lost some of their value. also i was a little disappointed w/ the creatures-they just look too human. i think if the creatures were a little more shocking in appearance, it would have made the film even scarier. now, that being said i still loved the movie. i may not have jumped (like everyone else in the theatre), but my heart was in my throat more than once. neil marshall does a great job building up the tension then letting it out like a balloon. he gets your mind away from the creatures just long enough that when they pop up it makes for a great scare. decent back story too. i did not know what was going to happen w/ the main characters and their conflict until, well... it happened. the ending that hollywood added wasn't too bad, but the original sounds much better. all in all this is a very well made horror film that should be seen.

Awesome. I can't wait to see it.

I just watched The Delta Force with Chuck Norris.
Cheeseball fun.

Bad Taste

How this flew below my radar for so long is a mystery to me, but I finally saw it & I loved every minute of it! Great, sloppy gore, subtle dark comedy, well acted & directed on a pretty low budget. This movie was awesome from start to finish and includes one of the most creative kills I've ever seen in my life. Excellent lowbrow horror fun...

"V for Vendetta" 7/10

It was ok. Nothing more, nothing less..




"Half light" 4/10

Horror movie, MY ASS!!



"Mirrormask" 2/10

Surreal crap with a boring story, actors as colorless as a concrete wall and make-up effects so lousy it brought back horrible, horrible memories of the BBC-"Neverwhere" experience.

It was easy to see that the story and lots of the ideas came from the mind of Gaiman, but maybe it just doesnīt work on film..
