Wolf Creek 2 The original Wolf Creek is one of my favourite horror flicks of the recent years.
The sequel is more like the diary of Mick Taylor, leading to the plot to miss build-up and tension and just be a sequence of events where you are not sure who you are supposed to care for. |
The Lullaby, 2018 {Screener} 6/10

Ya ever get that vibe from people like their not real...or like their really just some kinda "thing" wearin' a human body like a suit or somethin' ?
This flick really plays and preys on those views of mine...Great monologues and real cerebral atmosphere in this one... They Look Like People (2015) directed by Perry Blackshear |

Wow...maybe it's my bloated jaded American senses,but this foreign horror flick comes across as fresh and authentic. Plenty of WTF and damn that's nasty! in this one plus some really great macabre esoteric lyrics as well....it's a musical.

GHOSTS OF DARKNESS 2017
2 ghost hunters are hired to rid a country manner of what ails it. Extremely cliche but oddly not horrible. |

Walk Hard (currently on Netflix)
9/10 Excellent hilarious smooth parody. Wouldn't watch it with Grandma though. Super (currently on Netflix) 7/10 A dude loses his girlfriend to a drug dealer and becomes a reallife super hero to get her back. Pretty emotionally raw and simplistic, but fascinating just the same. My mon would say it's "stupid", and indeed it is,but it hits the essential nerves of males. Unacknowledged (currently on Netflix) 10/10 Sorry, it's the real deal documentary. Not for entertainment purposes. Comes fast and dense. Had to watch a few times. Fred Armisen: Standup For Drummers (currently on Netflix) Really loved it. Standup comedy by Fred Armisen. Always wanted to see his standup. Too much like me. Perhaps why I liked it. |
Cheap thrills,lowbrow dialogue,hard rock,and mild gore make this one a pretty good flick...
It's not the D. Argento one tho it has a similar name. Pelt (2010) directed by Richard Swindell |

''They smell like hell!'' https://isaacspictureconclusions.fil...pg?w=500&h=300 Abbott Hayes! ::love:: https://isaacspictureconclusions.fil...pg?w=500&h=300 I don't understands why everyone hates this movie. I see similarities in other low budget films that people adore. I liked it and glad I own this. |

JigSaw
Another Saw film. Another twist - Though I don't know if they could hand-hold you any more through this, they more or less explained it numerous times throughout the movie...matter of fact one thing said clearly outlined what was going on - so the whole "wow, John Cramer is alive" bit just..did not work. This one felt a bit like one of those later "hellraiser" direct to video psuedo-sequels..they departed from the main theme of the previous movies and essentially made a detective thriller? WAY too much was based around the investigation and not the "game" and victims thereof. I suppose at least the villain (or...hero?) seemed to be one of the "good" Jigsaws, followed Johns vision correctly and seemed to have good cause. I liked their tricks. They were intelligent. The traps were pretty boring unfortunately... Biggest problem - We didn't get anything from where SAW7 ended up, eg: Doctor Gordon and "crew"...if you were looking forward to seeing that like I was, forget it. Not even a damn mention or link. I'd give this maybe a 5/10. Elements I liked, strung through a bunch of shit I didn't. |
SICK HOUSE 2016
Made in Snap Chat, which I don't have and know very little about, the film plays out as a found footage documenting 4 teens trying to locate the "Sick House" on a camping trip. An interesting backstory, very little scares but I enjoyed it. Some creepy moments. |
THE PEOPLE VS GEORGE LUCAS (2009). Pretty good film involving a group of Star Wars fanatics (almost all of them for Episodes 4-6) and their sense of outrage over the prequels and Lucas's endless dithering about. Some good amateur films in here. ***

Family Possessions, 2016. 8/10
https://i.imgur.com/WHY2J8x.png I love Tommy Faircloth films! ::love:: He has a certain style that you can tell that these are his movies. Great characters, fun dialog and for me it feels like you are in his little world. I really enjoyed Dollface and Crinoline head, this film may be my favorite. It has Mark Patton from NoES 2 and Felissa Rose from Sleeepaway Camp https://i.imgur.com/AF7qnjK.jpg https://i.imgur.com/mYt7HNs.jpg |
Hellraiser: Judgement, 2017. 8/10
https://i.imgur.com/k2CKTZg.jpg https://i.imgur.com/77RRRGB.jpg https://i.imgur.com/p2R2Gln.png This film was awesome. It doesn't need the 'Hellraiser' tag because it could be a stand alone feature. Yes Pinhead is in here but it really didn't matter. This felt 'undergroundish' in some ways. The storyline was meh. I figured it out early in the film, but thats alright. I loved the 'house' where the 'judgement' lived. Loved all the characters especially The Surgeon. I wanted to post more pictures but those who have not seen it, I want you to see them when you watch it. The director,Gary J. Tunnicliffe is an FX and make up artist. No wonder everything looked ridiculously awesome. I'm gonna buy this film. |

LIVING AMONG US 2018
A modern family of vampires invite a news crew to live with them to show how peaceful they have become. I could tell what they were going for but found it fell flat. Pass. |

Batman Forever (1995) (Netflix) 4/10 https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...ver_poster.png "Batman must battle former district attorney Harvey Dent, who is now Two-Face and Edward Nygma, The Riddler with help from an amorous psychologist and a young circus acrobat who becomes his sidekick, Robin." Really disliked the extreme, almost parodied, characters of the film series past the original Batman (1987) (which I didn't think had fakey characters, except for some Joker's gang moments). I thought the script, characterizations and direction were far too simple minded, which crippled the suspense and thickening of the plot. Joel Schumacher directed, and Mr/Mrs Blatchler wrote the story and script, whereas the fist two Batman films were written by Sam Hamm (but not Batman's original film treatise), with Batman Returns screenplay done by Daniel Waters. I would have thought Val Kilmer would be a good Batman, but he certainly did not carry a dark confidence. I don't know if that wasn't Val's decision, but what happened during the screen test? For what it's worth, I thought Jim Carey did a good job with the Riddler; and the film would have been better without the redundant Two-face performance of Tommy Lee Jones. I was already not liking the extremely bizarre characterizations and pseudo-reality in Batman Returns, but was held in by the fantastical Tim Burton Team cinematography and direction. So I was out when the next films went further that direction. |
Good Time, 2017. 5.5/10
 What a cluster fuck of a film. Loud annoying people. Meh, not a Robert Pattinson fan. Cross the room if you never should have pushed play. |
Red Eye, 2017. 7,5/10
https://i.imgur.com/TZzrRgj.jpg Great indie film full of gore and sickness and the characters are horror movie fans! One of the dudes wore a Headless tee shirt. Great FX. Saw alot of FB friends in the 'Special Thanks' credits. |
Maniac (2012)
This was a really fucked up movie that was kind of eh. It made it seem like it was almost too fucked up, which is kind of wierd. |
They Look Like People (2015)
6.5/10 "Suspecting that people around him are turning into evil creatures, a troubled man questions whether to protect his only friend from an impending war, or from himself." The film seems more technique than story. On the good side, I think the film cinematography and shot direction is very effective in creating mood, creepiness and suspense, and best of all relays the "possible psychological condition" as well as any film I've seen. The main issue I have with the film is we don't get to know the main characters very well, and I think it feels like it's missing. The dramatization often comes across like mumblecore (a natural performance technique I like, and like here), however it generally stays there, and I'm not sure this was a cinema verite story, or film... I don't think it entirely works. As we must wait till end before we can decide if it's a horror, science fiction or psychological thriller film, we must admit it, then, that it can't really be any of the above... surely it's a mystery in disguise. |
47 METERS DOWN (2017). THE SHALLOWS was much better, but this has some good scary moments and thought it was quite suspenseful when one of the leads ascends to give info and You know that danger could come from anywhere. Slightly flabby script and characterization lower this a peg. **1/2

BABE (1995). When my Daughter was younger, used to take her to the movies a lot (101 DALMATIANS-1961 was her first) and I quickly found that Dollar Theatres could be a godsend with tix and concessions being more affordable as well as less crowds. Read a brief synopsis in the paper about "A Talking Pig learns to herd Sheep" which really didn't raise hopes that I would enjoy out, but figured the cost was right and my offspring might enjoy it.
After seeing it, went straight home and told my Wife that "...You just GOTTA see this!" and we went down for the next showing. Found this back in 1995 and now to be one of the BEST films I've seen, definitely in my Top 10. Gre at script, animatronics, locations, lots of humor (the singing Mice are truly inspired) and a wonderful performance by James Cromwell-couldn't believe this was the same actor who played the goofy Stretch Cunningham on ALL IN THE FAMILY. As far as Babe himself, he's just as cute as can be, although there are some sad moments in here. ***** |

UNDER THE SHADOW 2016
A woman and her small daughter are terrorized by "djinns" during wartime in Tehran. Sub-titled and quite good. Totally stole this from the internet " the only horror movie where a woman flees her house in total terror and is arrested for not covering her hair" |
