Ninja III: The Domination
highly enjoyable action flick. tons of ass kicking and a huge body count, not to mention an absolutely hilarious 80's workout scene. Anvil: The Story Of Anvil A really powerful and rather sad documentary. highly reccomended. |

The Asphyx (1973) http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/3...phyxposter.gif A pretty original and decent English Gothic horror film. Set in 1870's England, aristocrat Sir Hugo (Robert Stephens) accidentally photographs an entity (mythological name Asphyx) entering a person's body at their death. Sir Hugo theorizes that each person has their own Asphyx and that if the entity can be imprisoned outside the body, the person will be immortal! >>: B+ Eyes Without a Face [Les Yeux sans Visage] (1960) Review in the 'last classic Horror watched' thread >>: A+ The Invisible Man (1933) Review in the 'last classic Horror watched' thread >>: A |

Tower of Evil (British ttle: Mystery of Snape Island)
Horrible doings on a desolate isle off the coast of England. Very cheesey and lots of fun. Plenty of 70s style gore and Newb- every female character appears nude. (It was the 70s) This wasn't on demand- it was on TCM. |
Ice Age 3 (3D)
more crap. the 3D looked good .. the animation looked good .... but the story and desperately frantic pace ruined this one ..again. I guess they didnt learn shit from ice age 2 |
Shiver (Eskalofrío) - A nice Spanish thriller about a young man suffering from photophobia. Him and his mother move to a village in the mountains where the days are shorter, but as soon as they do, murders start up and guess who they blame. I liked the film but I felt that the twist came too early and after it, the movie became less and less suspenseful.

Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead
I'm not sure why it was a musical for the first 20 or so, but I didn't mind either, the songs were o.k and somewhat humerous... But then it turned into one of the most awesome movies I have seen in some time. Utter gratuitous gore,tits and Zombie chickens.... I laughed more than I have in a horror movie for some time. 8.5/10 Terror Firmer I watched the uncut version, I thought it was far to long and with better editing it could have been a clasic gore/shock masterpiece. But over all, there was to much going on and to many different elements messing things up. 5.5/10 |
The Funhouse - A complete waste of time. I am shocked that Tobe Hooper directed this. It was horribly acted, uninteresting, boring, and not even remotely scary nor shocking. I only recommend this film to people who are a fan of BAD eighties horror.

"Deadgirl"--I heard good things, but wasn't very impressed. 5/10

Watchmen (2009)
Outstanding! >>: A |
S.Darko
Despite the fact that this movie should never have even been conceptualized, it was and curiosity got the better of me. It was a bit of a mess, it had none of the wit that Donnie Darko had which is somthing that made that movie so great. Also it was a much weaker cast, it wasn't unwatchable and maybe even a little better than I expected, but overall just unecesary. Not taking the origanal into consideration in near imposible when watching this movie and that is it's main fault. 5/10 Fanboys It just wasn't that funny, great concept but a rather bad script, probably not the best cast either. Utterly dissapointing. 4/10 |
White Heat (1949)
After being so very let-down by Public Enemies last week, I've been craving a proper gangster flick - and this one more than fit the bill. A fast paced, electrifying film that absolutely bristles with energy and tension from the very start. Cagney's Cody Jarrett has to be one of the most dynamic, unforgettable characters ever to appear on film - psychotic, charismatic, unpredictable and at times hilarious and tragic...I'll admit I haven't seen a large portion of his work, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say this has to be one of Cagney's greatest performances. The plot is one to keep you on the edge of your seat, and once the tension starts building it doesn't stop until the explosive conclusion. Goddamn, what a great movie. Made it, Ma! Top of the world! |

I'm a huge Donald Sutherland fan, and I daresay that's my favourite performance from him. Makes the whole movie. |

Black Orpheus / Orfeu Negro (1959)
A gorgeous retelling of the Orpheus myth, set against the backdrop of Rio de Janeiro's Carnaval. Really enjoyed this one...nothing short of a treat for the senses. It's a non-stop array of colour and music, imagery and symbolism. Brilliantly directed and featuring a wonderful cast of little known actors, this is a must see for any fans of cinematic art - especially if you're also interested in Greek myth. The way the story of Orpheus and Eurydice is adapted here is fascinating. |

Yes, it was. There were a couple of scenes that took me by surprise with the brutality. Wasn't quite sure about the ending, though. I won't say here what it was in case there's folks that haven't seen it yet. |
Bullets or Ballots (1936)
Nothing too special, but a pretty solid mobster flick. Edward G. Robinson is great as always and Humphrey Bogart is damn good in a supporting role. Most of the movie doesn't have a whole lot to distinguish itself from other movies of it's kind, but the ending is absolutely fantastic, and makes the whole thing worthwhile. Glad I caught this on TCM - far from earth-shattering, but still a decent watch. |

The sword in the stone.
Kinda fun, I have rather fond memories of this one as a child, some years later watched it a fair bit with my younger brother who got right into it. I really like the animation of this style/age. |
