When a Stranger Calls (2006)


Not nearly as bad as I expected, but still very mediocre. Excluding the original's brilliant opening scene, it's not much better or worse than the original. Obvious score, dumb jump scares and very cliched. Pretty much your average 2000's teen horror flick.

I totally agree. The original was far from good. It was all over the place, this version wasn't. Still wasn't very good tho.

"The Bronze" 5/10

I was surprised to see this was made by a total rookie as it felt like a comedy made by one of the veterans in the business. That being said, The Bronze will probably only be remembered for its weird (and graphic?) athletic sex scene.

Except for a promising intro this movie didn't deliver.

Yeah the original had a horrible middle section and a great opening and good ending. This one was consistently meh. It would have been good if they got rid of all those horrible jump scares.

Saw The Neon Demon a few weeks ago.

It's a really great and unique horror movie in my opinion. It was very atmospheric and beautiful. Far from a traditional horror movie.
At times it reminded me of Black Swan.

Its not for everybody but I loved it. 4/5

Traders
I.M.D.B.
What if it made perfect sense for ordinary people to kill each other for money? Better than slow grinding financial ruin and misery, and all done according to a strict code by consenting adults. This is Trading.

A good performance by John Bradley keeps it interesting, but the movie never goes beyond it's initial concept, and the persistent deadpan acting from Killian Scott takes away gravitas from the situations.
6/10

Road Games
I.M.D.B.
The sun drenched days of summer turn dark and ominous for hitchhiking duo Jack and Véronique when they become inexplicably entangled with a mysterious married couple and a local road kill collector in rural France.

A suspenseful build-up where intriguing characters act peculiarly with dialogue that encourages the viewer to speculate what's really going on, but results in an ultimately unsatisfying third act. Joséphine de La Baume is hot though. Worth a watch? Uhm...I can't really recommend it, but I enjoyed watching it.

Hard Candy
I.M.D.B.
A teenage girl raids a man's home in order to expose him under suspicion that he is a sex offender with pedophilia.

Pretty well written with strong performances by the leads. Although I enjoyed watching it, I felt it lacked a certain punch. It could have been a lot darker, but instead the subject matter was portrayed so invisibly (that is to say, completely off screen and vaguely referenced to the point of confusion), that it didn't stir enough emotion within me to care about the characters.

Lights Out (2016)

Great characters, some good scares and a cool villain. It's not especially scary since it's mostly the same scare (lights off, monster appears), but there are some that work pretty well. The family dynamic in the movie reminded me of The Babadook which was great. The opening scene was amazing too. They also didn't go overboard with the backstory which was something I was worried about. They kept it short and to the point.

Monster House

I agree with everything you wrote!

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
6/10

Mildly interesting and entertaining film.

If film makers were bold enough to change Superman's character into something unfamiliar to us -- as was inferred through one of Batman's dreams -- that Superman was a strange alien, acting like a capricious greek god... than I think this could have been a great film.

But of course, that wasn't the case. This was merely the first entry of many DC comic superhero films to star the Superman, Batman, etc, whom we already know well.

Of course, I'd assume, who ever owns the copyright of Superman would not allow his character portrayal to be significantly different, even for one film. Too bad.

The film was 2.5 hours. I think if the director had kept Superman's character a complete mystery, and instead told the story exclusively from Batman's skewed view of him, until the final battle, I think this may have been a very good film.

Also, as many may have opined, the film ended with the superhero's battling a late entry creature, alongside a third superhero. I found it disjointing and belaboring to the film and story.

There's a 3.5 hour version that's said to be play more smoothly. If you're going to watch one, and have the time, go with the 3.5.

Meet the Blacks (2016)
B/C
"Comedy about a black family that moves into an expensive neighbourhood during purge night."

Screw the ratings I thought it was funny. It's basically the first Purge movie with Friday characters. The humour is the same as in the Friday series.
Mike Tyson's scene was freakin' funny.

Puerto Ricans In Paris (2015)
B-
Nice cop buddy comedy starring Luis Guzman.

Wilderness
I.M.D.B.
Juvenile delinquents gets sent to a small British island after a fellow prisoners death, where they have to fight for survival.

A decent entry in the "hunted in the woods" genre. Enough gore to satisfy those who crave it, decent acting and good characters. Also...Sean Pertwee! He's awesome in everything.

It isn't what you think, then when it is, it really isn't. This was brilliant! ::love::

So its not a gore fest about some guy upstaging the people who try to fuck with him? Not in a condescending tone, i'm seriously curious. It looks like it could be good, but i'm not big on slasher/psychotic killer films.

Bad Moon (1996) - 8.5/10

Pretty cool werewolf flick.

Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse (2015)
I.M.D.B.
Three scouts, on the eve of their last camp-out, discover the true meaning of friendship when they attempt to save their town from a zombie outbreak.

This is a great zombie movie. Lighthearted and fun, plenty of gore, entertaining characters; a worthy edition to the zombie genre. Recommended!
8/10

Iron Sky - has been on my watchlist for a while, glad I finally watched it, looking forward to the sequel.

I thought it was quite disappointing.
The scouts angle wasn't as I hoped. I expected more creativity like traps and perhaps badges for killing zombies. There was more to it. Should've been a scouts troop vs zombies. Not just a couple of kids.
And the final battle was totally ruined by a strobelight.

Starry Eyes
I.M.D.B.
A hopeful young starlet uncovers the ominous origins of the Hollywood elite and enters into a deadly agreement in exchange for fame and fortune.

This was an odd little movie. A good performance by Alex Essoe held it together. A nice heap of gore towards the end. Ultimately though it just didn't impact with me very hard.
7/10

I didn't have such assumptions, but this does sound awesome. Suitable to a sequel, where it's post-apocalypse and our three heroes from the first movie have started a zombie killing troop to protect the wasteland. Make it Hollywood!

BRIDE OF CHUCKY (1998). Pretty silly, but quite fun . Brad Dourif was dead on as usual and thought Jennifer Tilly quite good and quite hot. ***1/2

Been rewatching some movies I only saw one or two times.
Mainly British gangster/comedy stuff. Always had a certain appreciation for it hence the high ratings.

Human Traffic (1999)
A
More than decent and fun view on the late 90's rave/club/drug culture in Wales. If you're familiar with the subject you notice that it's a realistic and near perfect reflection of those times.

Oh, yeah. I nearly laughed my ass of when I noticed Rick from TWD ordering a pint, later on fucked up on speed/xtc and trying to get some tokes from a joint. If you're not interested in seeing the movie, here are his scenes

Layer Cake (2004)
A/B
I think I enjoyed it more than before. Similar to Snatch en RocknRolla but with less humour.
Kinda fun to see Tom Hardy when he still had a babyface.
The Game Of Thrones' Night's Watch traitor, who's good with knives, had a small part too.

It's All Gone Pete Thong (2004)
A/B
Set in Ibiza, Paul Kaye plays a DJ with an alcohol/drug addiction who goes deaf, spirals out of control and tries to get back on his feet.
I think this movie proves once again what an underrated actor Paul Kaye is.
He's also in Game Of Thrones now as Thoros of Myr, the drunk Red Priest.

RocknRolla (2008)
B+
Liked it more than the first time I saw it.
And what a cast: Gerard Butler, Idris Elba, Tom Hardy and other familiar faces.

In Bruges (2008)
A
Brilliant dark comedy with an excellent Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson.
If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it.

This is my favourite of the series.

Willard (2003)
4/10

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...lard_movie.jpg

Where to begin? Let's start with the good: Crispin Glover was born to play Willard. In fact, when anyone said, "remake of Willard staring Crispin Glover", thousands of palms struck foreheads with the gleeful chorus of, "Yes, of course!" And Crispin did a fine job (for which he was nominated for Best Actor at the 2004 Saturn Awards), in spite of a woeful script, that was a horrible disservice to the mysterious perfect meeting of actor and role.

Also very good was the near exclusive use of live rats, that were seamlessly integrated with CGI rat effects where necessary. The film was well funded (20 million), with effective cinematography and all-around production value.

Unfortunately, the script was aimless, heartless, confusing, horrorless and humorless, and lacking in suspense. The film was written and directed by Glen Morgan.

The film should have been written and directed by Rob Reiner (Misery) or David Cronenberg (The Fly). Brian De Palma (Carrie) would be an excellent choice for a suspense director, but would have written something much too perverted for an appropriate PG-13 Willard.

The beginning of Willard almost seemed to be in the graphic novel genre, a genre that can be lofty, where it paints with rich symbolism, and lets smart viewers fill in the inferences. But I quickly realized Willard was lofty in the sense that it didn't want to present anything in a definitive or strong manner. I don't think the script was set with any clear goals of what kind of film it was trying to be.

I couldn't tell if Willard understood the morals that he would break, or if he was ever insane or not. I couldn't tell if Willard's boss, Frank (R. Lee Ermey), loved or hated him. We see Frank meet with Willard's lawyer, concerning the plot-line of Willard selling his house to Frank, but I couldn't tell if there was evil collusion or not. I couldn't tell if co-worker Cathryn (Laura Elena Harring) had a bizarre pity obsession with Willard, or whether Cathryn or Willard had any love interest what-so-ever.

I don't know why Willard did many of the things he did. I'd have to go into spoilers to specify. For those who've already seen Willard, I'll ask you one spoiler question here below in white text. I'd love a reply if you know the answer: Why did Willard kill most of his rats?

Fargo

Jason Bourne
Pretty good movie. Great sequel. Not as good as Matt Damon's other Bourne movies but still good. Loved the addition of the beautiful Alicia Vikander who was in Ex Machina. 4/5

Ghostbusters
It was OK. I laughed a few times but felt like the movie was just average. Nowhere near as bad or as good as certain groups of people claim. I thought Kate McKinnon was great in it. 3/5

Final Destination 3

It's hard to decide between Scream and Final Destination as being my favourite horror series/franchise - the first Scream is much better than any Final Destination movie, but I enjoy the FD sequels to the Scream sequels. Anyhow, I love this film. I think the whole FD series is underrated, you just gotta learn not to take it too seriously. 10/10.

Zero Theorem. 8/10

Ya, Scream relayed horror movie tropes as an integral part of the film. A sequel is counter-intuitive. It's like wanting to watch alternate takes of the same film, as a whole 90 min film, after you saw the first.

Speaking of Glen Morgan... Final Destination 3 = 10/10? I'm going to have to check it out. I was impressed with the direction and production value of the first. Which Final Destination had a semi speeding toward someone in the middle of the highway crawling out their car? I saw that in a preview.

The Nice Guys (2016)
A/B
This was fun. Bit like a less serious Lethal Weapon set in the 70's.
My kinda humour.

Perrier's Bounty (2009)
B+
Irish crime/comedy starring Cillian Murphy, Brendan Gleeson and 3 actors from Game Of Thrones: Stannis, Bolton and a Night's Watch fella. And other familiar faces.
Good stuff...

Adam And Paul (2004)
B
Drama/comedy about a day in the life of two Dublin junkies.

Just watch 'em all. Some are to be taken less serious but there all good entertainment. And the kills make it all worth.
I wouldn't mind more sequels as long as they switch up the locations.

Werewolf: The Beast Among Us (2012) - 4/10
