Final Destination

woyzeck

Saw Doom last night. It didn't really deal too much with the story, but it was pretty fuckin' awesome to watch.

Darkness.... unfortuneately. Not enough happens in the movie and the storyline is dragged out too much.

Land of the Dead (again)

I really didn't notice any differences between the unrated directors cut and the theatrical version and since I was a bit diappointed in it the first time I saw it, nothing has changed. The gore is cool, but it fails to live up to the standards Romero set for himself with Night, Dawn and Day.

B+



On deck: House of Wax (remake), Mystery Science Theatre: Manos The Hands of Fate, and Haute Tension

Yeah, I'm really dissappointed that "unrated" might mean 2 extra minutes of a lame scene, not like 5 extra minutes where maybe 20 seconds for each nasty scene is headpounding gore. Now it seems to be nothing more than a lousy marketing ploy. :(

I missed that "Zombie Flesh Eaters" one. Fulchi's "Zombie". lol@that. That movie must have like 5 or 6 different names. The only thing I don't understand, why would someone call it "Zombie 2? Always makes me think "well, than what was 'Zombie 1' then?" ;)

Watched "Unleashed" aka Danny the Dog, last night. Some great fight scenes but pretty predictable.Biggest gripe

***SPOILER***






I wanted Jet to kill Bob Hoskins

"Zombie 1" = Romero's 'Dawn of the Dead'

Fulci had so much respect for this movie that he wanted to make his a kind of "second" film. Not really a sequel, but more like he couldn't compare his movie to Romero's.

Anyway, this weekend I saw:

*Wallace and Grommit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit- 5/5...pretty damn good, plus W+G shaped my childhood. :D

*The Fog ('05)- 1.5/5...pretty damn horrible.

House of Wax (remake)

There was some alright gore and Paris Hilton's poor acting ability didn't even really stand out because 1. she wasn't in it that much and 2. the rest of the cast wasn't that great either. The plot was similar to the original but it has definately been modeernized and given a Hollywood touch. It was right on par with what I expected which was some cheesy entertainment, but nothing spectacular.
