I'm working with the festival, so hoping to get any inside scoop before the film gets to the U.S. They're still locking down times, ticket prices, etc. but more info will be coming up on the website (LookEastFestival.com).

I'm a fan of the movie, but I've only seen it on DVD. Will be cool to see it on the big screen and even better to see it in THREE DIMENSIONS!

I'm conflicted by my love of that movie and my hatred of 3D.....


How far back did you have to go to find that quote?

Rumpelstiltskin

I really loved it, funny as hell and some good kill scenes.

Sleepaway Camp 3

I've had the first two for years and never came across the third till recently. Not disappointed at all, awesome 80s feel with the music and cheese.

I watched this a while back. I don't remember much except that Vincent Cassel is crazy in it.

So entertaining and well-realized. And the most compelling Bruce Banner/Hulk character ever.

Just saw it last night and I completely agree. I've always loved The Hulk but have never been fully satisfied with any of the big screen adaptations until now. I thought Captain America seemed a little underutilized for being such a central figure, but with that being my only gripe it's one of the best superhero films I've seen.

The Innkeepers

Definitely a slow burn as most people have been saying but interesting throughout. I really liked the main characters and appreciated that West did something different with it instead of just having them be a married couple owning the Inn and having some rambunctious little kid running around causing trouble.

The ending though left me wanting more since there really wasn't any closure to the movie. It's fine to leave things answered but one thing i've found is that if you have your characters asking questions, the audience will too.

Still though it's a good movie and kinda freaky if you let yourself get into it.

The Devil Inside (2012)

Kinda funny, as it's all about just demonic acrobats.

"Dark Shadows" (2012)
-Johnny Depp

Plot: After almost 200 years of sleep, vampire Barnabas Collins reawakens in 1972 to battle the evil (but gorgeous) witch who cursed him, help his descendents rebuild their fortune, find his lost love and generally deal with the strange new world he now finds himself in.

Phantom's Review: First, let me say I love the original "Dark Shadows", been a fan for decades, so when I first heard that Depp and Burton were going to do a film version I got very excited I'm a fan of them and I like their style, but then I saw the first few previews and I saw a comedy not a Gothic Horror movie, but I went and saw it anyway and much to my surprise I loved it. The film does have some comedic moments, but they seem natural since they mostly deal with Barnabas trying to figure out his new world. There are some really decent BOO! scenes, great FX and the film really tries to keep the atmosphere and spirit (no pun intended) of the original show. The whole cast does a great job with their characters. My only main complaint is a late film reveal about the Carolyn character that really goes nowhere and the original "Dark Shadows" music is only barely hinted at in the soundtrack. Outside of that really enjoyed this film.
