Man of Steel (2013) Loved it , 9/10
The Fast and the Furious 1.2,4 and 5, First watch for all movies I liked the first movie * 6/10 second a lot more fun and I liked better 7/10 (I missed 3rd and went to number 4, which I enjoyed even more then first 2 8/10 and the number 5 was really good and I loved the twist at the end but I did not think it was fun as number 4. Fun series ************************************************** **********************8 Now horror House at the End of the Street (2012) One reason I have seen this movie early was cause of title of the movie but I have had it on my watch list for a bit and I was recommend this movie 3 days ago. So gave this movie watch and first set go, I wasn't sure what actually going on, It didn't really make sense of it, while trying figuring it out, I thought I might missed something at start. As the movie goes on the movies get way to predicable and some stuff in this movie was just waist of time. I felt most of the movie very boring and I just not connect with any one and I should sorry for girl, who seem to be nasty person. I actually felt sorry for the killer in this movie, well they gave him a little bit of back story to him. After the movie ended, I was actually still waiting something to happen in this movie, Watch-able movie but it id very weak pacing which make the movie uninteresting and at end of the movie you will feel humdrum, I know I did. The acting was really decent from the whole, it shame about rest of the movie. 3 out of 10 Would You Rather (2012) First part of them movie is about Iris who as a sick brother and ends unknowingly agrees to compete in a deadly game of "Would You Rather," hosted by a sadistic aristocrat. Not bad movie but it not a great movie either, is just the Average at best I not sure what to make of this movie, well it was not boring, it was tad predicable, how I could tell who going to be last one left from the start. I didn't like the ending twist, also so so that coming. I was still intruded how they were going to do torture scene some scenes did look really pain full in this movie and one nasty. Some of other seem a bit tame, this movie could have not more exacting It's a bad movie, it has it good and bad faults and the acting I found it better then I thought it would be. I going to give this movie 5 out of 10 rather then 4 or 6 out of 10 :p I did see the trailer before seeing this movie,, which made movie a little bit better then it is. No One Lives (2012) I didn't even know about this movie until this week, Saw trailer and looked great. A gang of thugs who end up messing with the wrong person, as the person they kidnapped turn out to be a Psychopath. Wow this movie actually flew by, it really well paced and never gets boring at all, I was actually clued to the screen most of the movie. There one moment in the movie, that stick with me for few hours after the movie, gross but also in away It was kind of funny. I loved some of death scenes in this movie, some of were very gruesomely gory at time. The weakest part of this movie is the acting from most of the cast were not that good and dose effect some scenes in this movie but don't let that get in away. The rest of the movie is a lot of fun Great Slasher 8 out of 10 Detention of the Dead (2012) Not that bad a bit better then I thought it would be. This movie mixed of Detention meet Dance of the Dead , The movie dose not take to long to get going and there are some very funny moment that made me laugh out loud. He got normal dentenion group, Jock guys, hot cheerleader, goth girl, Drug guy and Nerd guy all in Detention. Also guys come to seem to feel unwell and then hell break lose of cause There were some silly over the tops here and there and some of the jokes can go on bit long, but it got laughing. Some part of the movie are little boring for zombie there, Didn't really do much and sit and talk few room, which I could not case less about. It did start bit gory but as the movie went the zombie deaths seem to less bloody not really really that gory. I give 4.8 out of 10, It made laugh,, I just round it's off to 5 out of 10 |
Dead Before Dawn (2012 )
I didn't not expect that at all, I found this movie very funny a bit to funny and I laughing number of times this movie, yes some of it seem silly at times but very funny. I loved the plots of the movie, great idea spoof Zombie and Demon The plot: a group of kids unleash a horrible zombie-demon ("zemon") curse on a small town. Everyone who makes eye contact with the kids kills themselves and comes back as a zemon, bent on killing the kids by giving them hickeys It; was really fun and very enjoyable fast moving movie and really enjoyed how come people kill them self in this movie before they turn into Zemons. Some of kills scenes is movie were very funny in this movie and there few splatters moment in this movie aswell but I think could done more gory deaths thought then they were. The acting was really decent, It hard to tell if they pretend to play dump in some scene. I wasn't really happy how the movie came to a end, it kind of feel bit cheated by and in the last scene of the movie is very predicable I enjoyed most of the movie before the 10 minutes I may i rated higher but it still get decent 6 out of 10 |

Eragon
Didn't hate it but the lead actor was terrible |
I watched the following films a couple of nights ago (two for the first time, the others I have seen before) By the way, I will only review the films I have not seen before:
Hatchet (first time): 8/10 I thought it was funny and I definitely liked all the references to the slashers of the 1980s. For example, the killer, Victor Crowley, was a mongoloid who died by being burnt to death-an obvious fusion of Jason and Freddy. Plus, the cameos by three slasher legends Robert Englund (as a fisherman), Kane Hodder (as the killer), and Tony Todd (as a Vodoo tour guide). I thought that the ending was, whether intentional or not, a little empty. With the exception of the ending, this is an all-around good movie I would say. Mama (first time) 8/10: I thought this film was really good. It had a really good story and was very effective at building suspense. Additionally, it featured some really good performances, especially Jessica Chastain and the two little girls (the younger girl was actually, in my opinion, scarier than the ghost). The two major flaws of this movie were one the ghost of Mama because she herself was not really that scary looking. I think the movie would have been much better off if they had not shown her as much. Second, I think the climax could have been better, the film was relatively intense and scary, then at the end it abruptly changes and it feels as though we are watching Ghost (1990). It was not a bad climax, but it just seemed out of place for a movie like this. Overall though, a really good movie for the reasons I described above. Clive Barker's Hellraiser (I have seen many times before): 10/10 The Blair Witch Project (I have seen this several times before): 10/10 |
Mirrormask. It's made by Jim Henson's production company and written by Neil Gaiman. It's reminiscent of those epic 80s fantasy movies like Labyrinth.

Video Nasties: The Definitive Guide
A wonderful documentary detailing the politics behind the "video nasties" ordeal in Brittain in the 1980's. 5/5 |
Zombieland (2009): 10/10
I thought this film was one of the most brilliant horror comedies I have ever seen. It was interesting because it was very much a zombie film, while also managing to be quite funny. I especially like how this film was able to mix drama/seriousness with this humor. It was an interesting fusion. In my opinion, all the characters were very likeable and I could identify with them, especially Columbus as played by Jesse Eisenberg. Tallahassee as played by Woody Harrelson was the next best character. On that note, the roles were very well played and I actually felt for the characters. This film had a very human aspect to it. To the top it off, there is a great cameo from actor Bill Murray who played himself. On this note there is one other thing, however minor, that I loved which was the many pop culture references including, Hannah Montana, Twinkies, Ghostbusters, Titanic, Mountain Dew, Anaconda being just some of the references that were made throughout the film. It might be minor, but it made the world of the film seem more real. Ultimately, I loved this film because I thought it was brilliantly written and directed, featured some really good acting, and was quite funny, while still being serious at times. Definitely a modern horror comedy classic. |

Watched Hatchet 2 today. I thoroughly enjoyed the first one, so I don't know why it took me so long to see the second.
Not as good as the first one, to me, but it was definitely watchable. |
World war Z...3 /10 ...The only thing loyal to the book was the movie's title ..

Last Seen Movie
V/H/S/2 (2013)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...psd0fc151e.jpg My gut reaction to this movie is, "I liked it." Better than the first one? Sure. But let's look at the actual "parts" of the film:
3/5. ... Dark Skies (2013) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...psdfaa280a.jpg I found this movie surprisingly effective - Definitely well-done and suspenseful. I had low expectations, and was pleasantly surprised. 3/5. ... Never Let Me Go (2010) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps84ee0447.jpg There's a lot to like about this movie - It's a very subtle scifi slow-burner that deals with a pretty horrifying concept... What I really liked about it especially was the fact that we don't have people discovering the twist per se (SOILANT GREEN IS PEOPLE)... Our characters are just living it. My big issue is that ultimately the movie is trying to create a feeling of utter helplessness but I didn't necessarily buy the inescapably of it. 2.75/5 ... Warm Bodies (2013) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps93ce96a8.jpg I really really wanted to like this movie. Honestly, I think that my favorite part of it was Rob Corddry. The writing was really poor - The voice over was insipid and annoying and the main female, who is supposedly badass, made some really confusingly dumb decisions - In general this was one of those odd movies where characters continually make decisions that are just unbelievable. Pretty disappointing. 2/5. ... Truth or Die (2012) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...pse9b99dbc.jpg Just awful. Netflix, you can stop recommending it to me now. 1/5. |
Blue Valentine (2010)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps66ad0341.jpg Wow. This movie was absolutely fantastic. Incredible writing, acting, and direction. Very gritty, very melancholic, and very real. I absolutely loved it. 4.75/5. ... Man of Steel (2013) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps0e7856c9.jpg This movie was just awful. First it was incredibly boring and then the last action sequence just dragged on. I don't really understand why we needed another Superman movie. 2/5. |
World War Z.
Have not really read any of Brooks work outside bits of the Calendar edition of the survival guide...so not sure how this sums up in comparison... I thought it was "ok". Not great, not aweful. I had more problems with the fuckwits attending the cinema than the movie itself...I swear, I must make sure never to take a weapon in with me... I'd give it about a 6.5/10. I'd recommend seeing it, but maybe when it hits dvd/BR. |
World War Z
I thought this was awesome. It had a good story, was exciting the whole way through and nobody made any stupid decisions that ruined everything. SPOILERS I really loved the scene where Brad Pitt is walking towards the zombies at the end and they all just run around him because he infected himself with the virus to camouflage himself. It was an excellently done scene and it's the kind of moment i live for in movies. END OF SPOILERS The Next Three Days Second time seeing this one. I especially love the third part of the movie. Everything Russel Crowe's character does in the last part is so smart. My girlfriend thought it was just ok due to the poor parenting decisions. She was hoping they would get arrested or die and the kid would go to the grandparents. Shes a little dark :cool: |
The Shrine
This movie was actually better than what I was hoping for. It also has an interesting ending that you don't typically see in movies. I really wouldn't call this movie "horror", but rather dark fantasy. The villagers pack pretty mean crossbows however. |
Not really sure if this qualifies as a movie, but, I watched "56 Up" last night. I'm so intrigued by this series. Started when the people were 7 years old and has gone back every 7 years to follow up with them.

Man Of Steel 2/5
I was really disappointed by this. The first 15 minutes I was 'This is the greatest movie I have ever seen', but afterwards it sunk faster than the Titanic. Did not like the completely different story line, too much past flashbacks, acting rubbish. |

A Few Good Men meets Minority Report. Unfortunately, it neither has the class of the former nor the finesse of the latter. Most parts of the film drags and that's the first of many drawbacks. Skip. * * http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...oL._SX385_.jpg Re-visited my all-time favorite zombie movie in all it's Extended Cut glory (two and half hours of awesomeness). Still kicks ass even after all these years. * * * * * |
Forgot to post on Friday that I watched "The Bay". *shudder* Now I understand what Chrono meant!

Hannibal :p

Journey To The Center of The Earth
A fun movie with an interesting story and good acting. Made me want to read the book. Journey 2: The Mysterious Island More fun then the first and really funny. Also made me want to read the book. The Lone Ranger I really liked this. It was a lot of fun. Both Armie Hammer and Johnny Depp were great in their roles, especially Depp as Tonto. There were some ridiculous action parts but in a silly fun way like Pirates of The Caribbean. I hope they make more. |

The Dark Hours (2005) Sadistic _and_ smart. How is that possible? I'm surprised I haven't noticed this one mentioned around the web. Some drama, some torture, and a whole lottta messing with your head. 8/10 |
Detention.
I hated the first 5 minutes, and almost turned it off. It gets muddled toward the end when they try and impose a plot on all the craziness that happens in between, but that in between part is hilarious, smart, fast paced. A solid horror comedy that hits its mark about 80% of the time. |
The Expendables 2" (2012)
-Stallone,Schwarzenegger,Norris,Statham,Van Damme,Willis Plot:IMDB Mr. Church reunites the Expendables for what should be an easy paycheck, but when one of their men is murdered on the job, their quest for revenge puts them deep in enemy territory and up against an unexpected threat. Phantom's Review: Ultra violent,mindless,gory and almost totally plotless.....I LOVED IT! Let's face it, you don't see an "Expendables" movie for it's scintillating dialogue and award winning acting, you wanna see them blow shit up! And that's what you get. This movie delivers exactly what it promises. ACTION! and plenty of self deprecating humor. A complete and total popcorn movie. A total blast. |

Stupid and insulting to the works in which the characters are based on but fun in a mindless sort of way |

Slaughter (2009)
From After Dark films. Bad... just bad. And not in a good way. |

... Super (2010) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps831a58bb.jpg Already mentioned this in the Netflix thread but I figured it was worth a re-mention since I enjoyed it even more the second time that I watched it. Really dark, off-beat, but heart-breakingly honest and charming. Absolutely adored this movie. A lot of people are comparing it to Defendor, which makes sense. I loved that movie as well, but Super just edges over it in my opinion. Definitely recommended. 4/5. |

Dont expect much from American Psycho 2. Let down. |
Hansel & Gretel Get Baked (2013)
It's interesting where sick days and exhausting the use of your Netflix account can take you. |
Finally saw the Evil Dead Remake. It was...ok. I didn't feel like I wasted my time, but I didn't feel like I saw something special either.
|
I forgot, I also watched Demons (1985) and Cronos (1993). for the first time too. I would rate Demons a 9/10 and Cronos 9/10.

A B C s of Death
there's some really good stuff here and some not so good. [ F is for Fart ] but they are only a few minutes each....worth a watch this is one of the good ones |
The Purge
http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/...ps91acaf56.jpg Someone else said this here, i don't remember who, but they said that the film would've been better if they had gone more into detail about The Purge. I felt the same way, it was on too small a scale. I would've liked to see more about the state of America to cause the Purge and better demonstrations of its carnage. Maybe show the night of the first purge or show the whole system collapse. In the end this movie just became a gimmicky home invasion movie filled with stupid annoying characters who make dumb decisions. Nothing about this movie is scary or even interesting. Really disappointed. |
