By the way, for anyone remotely curious, that is not a real quote from Jeremiah 19, nor does it say anything about gates of hell. ::wink::

Julia (2014)

Revenge flick with some very unpleasant scenes, a good performance from the lead keep this watchable. The plot is a little weak and the ending doesn't make sense. Overall, not bad but could've been a lot better.

Saw Deepwater Horizon in the cinema. It was pretty entertaining. Some great sequences. It's the type of movie that should be watched in cinemas.
Kurt Russell was great in it and so was Mark Wahlberg.

I recommend checking it out.

The poster above me reminded me to post my review of Deepwater Horizon. I saw it Wednesday and just forgot to write about it since I got home late.

Deepwater Horizon

Surprisingly entertaining and really intense. It reminded me a lot of last year's Everest, which was another great docudrama disaster movie. It also wasn't just a dumb disaster flick where a bunch of people die off just for the sake of dying; the characters were memorable, well-written and well-acted. The special effects were also incredible.

Did the movie involve any of the reasons behind the disaster?

There's a lot of build up to the disaster. A lot of details are established as to how the disaster occurs and the people specifically responsible for what happens.
It's very detailed and also adds a lot to the suspense of the movie.

The first act is all lead up to the disaster and the reasons and people behind it. It's a relatively short movie (98 minutes or something) so it has quite a bit of its run time devoted to that.

Rabies (2010)
I.M.D.B.
A brother and sister who run away from home find sanctuary in a deserted nature reserve. When the sister falls into the trap of a psychopathic killer, the brother sets out on a race against time to find help. In a twist of fate the rescue of the sister becomes inadvertently intertwined with the lives of a group of young tennis players, a ranger and his dog, as well as a team of policemen.

This was an odd movie. Character decisions annoyed me at first, but once I began to understand the premise, I could settle into the carnage of it all. It's solidly made, with good acting for the most part. It took me about half the movie before I started really enjoying it, but once it became (somewhat) clear what was going on, I found it an enjoyable, violent little movie from Israel.

Baby Blues (2008)
I.M.D.B.
On a secluded family farm, a mother suffers a psychotic break due to postpartum depression, forcing the eldest son to protect his siblings from the mother they have always known and loved.

A strong performance from Colleen Porch as the psychotic mom and an effectively understated performance from Ridge Canipe as the son. While the movie feels a bit amateur in places, those places are few and far between, and generally this movie is well made and the violence is handled well, giving an emotional impact without being too graphic (as it's children we're dealing with). A pretty good horror movie.

Wolf Cop

Very enjoyable small budget horror comedy. An alcoholic werewolf deputy sheriff, occult ceremonies, shapeshifters and biker gangs all thrown into the mix. Well worth a watch.


Ghostbusters (2016)

Disappointing. I quite liked the four main characters (Kate McKinnon being the stand-out) but the story-line was weak and most of the jokes were poor. I didnt like the way they made the ghosts look or the constant nods to the original films either.
With that cast they could've done a lot better.

Meh, it was entertaining enough. Joker was just a side story in this. I really didn't like him but as the movie went on, he was okay. The best scenes were him with Harley. Will Smith was fantastic as usual.

I wasn't a fan of this one. It had a great build up but then just fell apart at the end when it turned into just your average horror movie.

Primeval -

I always like a crazy, big animal movie. Few are good. King Kong probably being at or near the top, with the stuff on Syfy being at the bottom. But even those Syfy ones are fun at times with the poor CGI, exotic locations, and girls in bikinis.

Primeval was released in theaters so it's more serious than a Syfy animal movie. They try to have a relevant background story as well with the events happening at the time in Africa. A plus is that I've always found Africa kind of untapped for horror movies. It always comes off to me as an undiscovered and hazardous country with the jungles and various animals roaming about. I'm sure a lot of scary bugs and spiders are there. Someone could make a good movie like Arachnophobia but just starting in Africa.

Anyway, I liked this one. The cast is fine. And the large crocodile and the way it goes about it's business is crazy. There are a few really good shots of it chasing down people.


These shots are good enough for me to add it to my list.

I can't wait to see this movie. I'm sure it's funny going by the cast. I love the original movie. It's perfect and a classic. The second one is just ok.

I think the people that were against the movie from the beginning without even seeing it were a type that have sprung up in recent years. I wish they would go away. Even if the movie is bad, female Ghostbusters hurt no one.

Since her childhood, Jessica has been haunted by recurrent nightmares whose meaning escapes her. This peculiarity has led her to study the psychophysiology of dreams and to follow a therapy with Sean, her mentor and boyfriend, to try and understand the origin of her nightmares.

A trippy movie with a bizarre concept (supernatural time travelling lucid dreaming?). It was well made, with a pretty good representation of dreaming and some interesting imagery and colours. Just don't think for one second that this will have anything to do with actual lucid dreaming. A tough one to recommend, but I enjoyed it, and it is well made. But more style than substance.

You might want to check out My Life in the Bush of Ghosts by Amos Tutuola. Its about a boy fleeing from becoming forced into being a child soldier and then the ghosts he meets in the bush. It uses a lot of various African myths about ghosts. Not sure if its general Africa or specifically where he's from.

If ever a role was written with Mel Gibson in mind, this is it. I really liked it, its a no frills exploitation style flick with Mel giving his gruffest performance since Payback. Definitely catch a viewing if you can.
