Klown Forever (2015)
B-
Follow up to Klown The Movie, based upon the Danish series Klown.
It's about two sort of friends and stuff they get into.
I think I liked it more than the previous one.

Romper Stomper (1992)
B
Been ages since I've seen this one. Proper Aussie skinhead action drama.
It was my introduction to Russell Crowe. Here he plays the leader of a violent gang of skinheads.

The Mummy
This movie traumatized me as a kid and I never fully watched it, but some friends wanted to watch it and I figured I had a change of view in horror enough to handle it, and I did. I liked it a lot better now than I had then that is for sure. Relied heavily on CGI, but for it's time the effects weren't horrible. There were several cliche characters and plot holes, but over all it was a decent remake. It's enjoyable if you like a classic cheese flick.

Home Movie (2008)
I.M.D.B.
In the remote woods of Upstate New York, David and Clare Poe are attempting to live an idyllic life. However, their twin children's bizarre behavior might just tear the family apart.

Adrian Pasdar carries the movie with his performance. It's difficult to make a 'found footage' performance seem natural and compelling, but I think he pulls it off. Unfortunately it's about the only thing this movie has going. The movie pulls all of its punches, and suffers greatly for it.
5/10

In the Mouth of Madness (1994)
I.M.D.B.
An insurance investigator begins discovering that the impact a horror writer's books have on his fans is more than inspirational.

Remembered it fondly but haven't watched it for 20 years. First time watching it as an adult and I really enjoyed it. It's a clever little movie that's really enjoyable to watch.
9/10

K-Shop (2016)
I.M.D.B.
A kebab shop owner's son, Salah, turns vigilante after his father's death in an effort to clean up the relentless onslaught of boozed up thrill seekers waging war on his doorstep.

Perhaps a touch long, but it was an enjoyable movie. Doesn't quite capture the intensity of such interactions with drunk British 'hooligans', but Ziad Abaza's performance is compelling enough to keep the interest going.
7/10

Rogue One

Thoroughly enjoyed it. 9/10

"Passengers" (2016) 5/10

First 20 minutes were quite good.

We Are the Flesh, 2016. I have no number for this/10





I wanna be an arthouse film, but I don't know what the fuck I'm doing. This failed miserably. The ending was laughable.

Cafe Society - 8/10

Nothing like a good Woody Allen to start a movie binge.

The Hundred Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared (2013)
original title: Hundraåringen som klev ut genom fönstret och försvann (2013)
A

"After living a long and colorful life, Allan Karlsson finds himself stuck in a nursing home. On his 100th birthday, he leaps out a window and begins an unexpected journey."

Great Swedish film.
I know it sounds strange but it's like a mix of Forrest Gump and Guy Ritchie movies like Snatch or Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels.

I recommend this one.

SiREN (2016)
I.M.D.B.
A bachelor party becomes a savage fight for survival when the groomsmen unwittingly unleash a fabled predator upon the festivities. A feature adaptation of the segment "Amateur Night" from the 2012 horror anthology "V/H/S."

An enjoyable watch. Well made, good performances, interesting enough premise. Worth a watch for quick movie night.

I thought that movie was a mess.

I Am Not a Serial Killer
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....82,268_AL_.jpg

I really enjoyed this. The story was different from your typical my next door neighbor is a killer trope due to the kids sociopathy, what exactly the killer is, and from how the movie develops. A good watch from beginning to end.

7/10

Under The Shadow
http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/...psxa3lcx0c.jpg

This was really good. I love a good monster movie especially one with a good story. The monster story itself was a simple monster tale but with the backdrop of the war in Iran and the bombings it made it much more interesting. Relied a little too heavily on jump scares but still pretty good.

8/10

The Autopsy of Jane Doe
http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/...pswdwqqhfc.jpg

This was excellent. The story is really creative and original and the movie itself is really creepy. The mortuary provides a great isolated setting and Brian Cox and Emile Hirsch give great performances. The mystery keeps you really interested and the reveal was totally unexpected.

9/10

Red Billabong, 2016. 6/10

All reviews say this is a gawd awful film. I kinda liked it. It is an Australian creature feature. Beautiful cinematography of the out back. Aussie humo{u}r and amazing looking guys. ::love:: It was a fun watch that felt made for TV. Enjoyed this first watch of 2017.

The Girl With All The Gifts, 2016. 7/10

Krampus - 8/10

I had a lot of fun. It had a campiness to it at times that reminded me of Critters. And maybe a spoon of Tim Burton here and there.

I would suggest Assault on Arkham. Its what the Suicide Squad movie should have been like.

New Kids Turbo (2010)
"White trash battling the govenrment."
Lots of crude humour and violence.

New Kids Nitro (2011)
"White trash vs white trash from a neighbouring village and later on vs zombies."
More of the same but this time with zombies and gore.

I give an both an A or B depending on the mood.

The worse the weather gets, the more I (re)watch comedies.

I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House, 2016. 7/10


https://thefinalscene.files.wordpres...5&h=224&crop=1

Creepy. This film was directed by the guy who did The Blackcoats Daughter. This director knows atmosphere.



*Edit

Oz Perkins, the director, son of Norman Bates. :)

The Magnificent Seven (2016)
I.M.D.B.
Seven gunmen in the old west gradually come together to help a poor village against savage thieves.

Relatively entertaining. More time should have been spent with the camaraderie of the seven, making us care more about them. And more realism should have been portrayed regarding accuracy of the guns. Everyone's Deadshot in this and it strips all the tension. Turn your brain off and watch. Or don't...you've seen it all before anyway.
7/10

Sold! *adds to my watch list*

Saw it some time ago.
While it wasn't perfect (though my only real issue was it was quite small scale), I tell anyone disappointed in Suicide Squad almost exactly the same thing.

Lights Out

Predictable plot points but still pretty well executed.

Yeah, I really liked this one

DOG SOLDIERS (2001). Probably my favorite werewolf movie. Extremely intense, well acted and scary too. ****1/2

Love, love, love this movie!

Just watched this as well. Aesthetically I thought it was amazing, wanted more plotwise though. Pretty standard ghost story..well shot and performed, but ultimately kind of predictable / anticlimactic.

Still a cool movie though. Very understated. Plus it's nice to see Netflix's "original content" branching out into horror fare - hopefully a sign of more to come.

HOLIDAYS 2016


A collection of torturous holiday short stories. Easter freaked me right out. Pretty enjoyable.

The Grudge -

I know I never saw this movie completely before. I remember so many bits from it though. Perhaps catching parts on TV, cable, and the trailer in the past. I know I saw the original some time ago, which I like. Many parts of the remake seem directly lifted from the original and some of the casting as well. This might be one of those remakes that was made for US audiences because they couldn't be bothered with reading subtitles. Overall it's ok. Only a few notable scenes in the elevator and bus. And worth a watch for Buffy. I'll watch the original again when I get a chance. I bet it comes off as the superior version.

omg! The Return of The_Return!! How are you doing, man? Great to see you back. Hope everything's going great for you.

Haven't seen this yet and yeah...it didn't get much attention so far from the genre fans but after HDC's multiple recommendations definitely looking forward to check this out. Btw, have you seen Autopsy of Jane Doe? One of the year's best, IMO!

Mommy (2014)
I.M.D.B.
A widowed single mother, raising her violent son alone, finds new hope when a mysterious neighbor inserts herself into their household.

A good film. Well made, great performances and dialogue, impacting and emotional. The only thing I didn't like was the artistic play with the aspect ratio.
8.5/10

I actually like the remake more for some reason. I also had watched the original before watching the remake.

The thing I liked best about the remake was not having to read subtitles so I could stare at Sarah Michelle Gellar's face. Which I think was the best thing that came out of both films.
