Wicker Man (2006). Not as bad as I expected it to be but nowhere near as good as the original.

The Brothers Grimm.
Not great, poorly executed, CRAP acting.

Ever After, the snow white "horror" story were both better efforts.
I seem to recall that there was also a VERY well done mini-series made sometime in the 90's, various tales slightly intertwined around both of the brothers, THAT I'd like to see again.

The new movie...eh, if you're bored, maybe.

The Blob (Remake)

Better than I expected. Acting, direction, story and gore were all better than I was assuming they'd be. Actually turned out to be quite an enjoyable film...

Caught the first part of this on SCREAM last night, at 4AM... couldn't stay awake for the rest of it... but it looked prety enjoyable. I was smiling throughout, plus I had watched a documentary about it just last month.

Thinking of trying and finding the DVD.

Catching a special showing of SLiTHER tonight at my local theatre. :) Really excited.

CrimsonFiend138 09-02-2006 06:12 PM

I wanted to see Slither.

memories of murder. korean detective flick based on the first serial killer in south korea who was never caught. i've had this for over 2 months and finally took the time to watch it tonight. glad i did.

Wicker Man '06

Hahahahahahahahaha....this movie sucked ass, but God was it hilarious. For all the wrong reasons mind you, but hilarious just the same.

It might even beat out Amityville as the worst remake ever IMO....but anyone who doesnt get a good laugh out of Nick Cage in a giant bear suit dropping some random girl with one punch...well, they just might have something wrong with them. Really, really bad but if you dont take it too serious, you'll find alot to laugh at:D

SLiTHER

Could have been a massive cult-hit, but I believe it missed the mark. It did make me realize one thing though; CGI is a terrible, terrible thing. Well, when used in films like THIS, that is. If shot in entirely latex, rubber, etc I would have enjoyed it a lot more. The CGI was really ugly, and distracting. It didn't blend well at ALL, and looked like something a PS2 could crank out in a Silent Hill installment (not at all bad, but when mixed with live action...)

It was funny, and enjoyable... but the CGI. I craved a more... cheesy experience. Where's the effects ala Evil Dead?

Cadaver 09-02-2006 08:58 PM

The Return of the Living Dead - it's always a blast to watch that

alkytrio666 09-02-2006 09:51 PM

I Heart Huckabees

Very funny and very enjoyable. And a superb cast.

I recommend this.

Miss Olivia 09-02-2006 10:41 PM

The Toxic Avenger. Never fails to crack me up. The grunting monster kicking bad guy ass and then switching to a cultured speaking voice is hysterical.

crabapple 09-02-2006 11:02 PM

Phantasm III - a favorite around here lately for some reason.

Lala_Sound 09-03-2006 01:18 AM

It's the nearest thing to a classic with me XD

Identity.
I'd wanted to see this for some time.
Acting was ok - none of the actors best performance/role.
I suppose the twist was interesting if a little crazy.
I really liked the musical scoring, and I have to admit, prior to the "revealation" at the point I was still doing the "I think it must be..." thing, it did the suspense thing very well.
Worth a view if you've not seen it yet...not a film to take seriously, but it's watchable...some nice gore thrown in there too.

Just another dumb toilet humor movie, but it was still funny.

Miss Olivia 09-03-2006 12:02 PM

Heathers with Winona Ryder and Christian Slater. I thought it was a pretty funny satire. Even if it is dated.

Marebito
Pyrokinesis
Brick

heebiejeebies 09-03-2006 01:56 PM

I liked Marebito, but I'm not sure why. Nothing about it should've worked. There's very little action. Almost the entire movie's dialgue is voiceover. And I have to say I didn't completely understand the ending. All of that aside, however, I liked it. I'll have to watch it again when I have some spare time, which may be in two or three YEARS.

I also liked Pyrokinesis. It's pretty predictable, but the ending was not exactly what I expected. The premise is a pretty good one: woman with pyrokinesis seeks revenge.

The one on my list I liked the most, however, (aside from Brick) was The Neighbor No. Thirteen. It has a "blink and you'll miss it" cameo by Takashi Miike. It started a little slow, but when it got started...there was no turning back. Another head-scratcher of an ending, but I kinda like those. I would definitely recommend this one.

with a confusing ending

CrimsonFiend138 09-03-2006 03:30 PM
