Into The Forest (2015)
I.M.D.B.
After a massive power outage, two sisters learn to survive on their own in their isolated woodland home.

Solid performances from Wood and Page, and the movie relies heavily on this. I was always expecting more horror to happen due to the front cover. Instead it was more of a character piece about the relationship between the two sisters.
The actual practicalities of survival were minimal. I felt an impending threat from others, but that never really comes, so I was left feeling a bit unsatisfied. Good performance from the leads though.
7/10

Nerve (2016)

"A high school senior finds herself immersed in an online game of truth or dare, where her every move starts to become manipulated by an anonymous community of 'watchers.'"

Funny and surprisingly suspenseful teen thriller. It has some good twists and likable characters to make it better than your average teen flick. There's also some nice social commentary, but it gets way too forced towards the end. The whole concept is completely ridiculous, so your enjoyment of this movie depends on whether or not you'll be willing to give yourself away to the premise. If you can get past the more ridiculous aspects of the game, you'll like it.

Feast (2005)
I.M.D.B.
Patrons locked inside a bar are forced to fight monsters.

Fun movie. Monsters are well done. Movie is visceral and fun. Would liked to have seen more comedy in the script. Satisfyingly gross. Recommended.

The Killing Fields 1984

Just Buried - fun if you liked "Pushing Daisies"
Flaws - Intentionally bad, low budget "Jaws" parody with a killer pool sweeper
Lights Out - had some good ideas, but didn't really work.
Ghosthunters - when the bad guy wears a mask, you know it's one of the other characters. When there are only two male actors in the movie, it's not hard to find the bad guy.
Haunted - Extended Cut - horror themed reality show movie. yes, it's as bad as it sounds.

Did check this out. Gross...gore galore...Henry Rollins..what's not to like? Enjoyed it.

The Mind's Eye (2015)
A/B
The less you know about the story the better!
All you need to know is that it's about people with psychokinetic powers, there's an evil doctor and lots of Scanners moments.

The good:
It's set in the early 90's, the musical score reminded me of Terminator and other 80's movies, great looking blood and gore, good effects, some scenes reminded me of Stuart Gordon movies,...

The bad:
The story/script was a little bit weak in places, couple of dumb decision moments, the cast could've been a little better and there was something else but I can't put my finger on it.

Anyway, I still recommend it.


If you like this one, you'll probably like the sequels too.
I think I might watch the trilogy again. It's been a while.

Suicide Squad (2016)
5/10

Tries hard to be cool, like it was made by marketing whores.

Anti-heros trying to be cool, tough, sexy, crude, inappropriate and funny. If you like that, you'll like the film.

Decent SFX. Rather light in action , which I generally prefer, but both the action and story were very clique (though the brother-witch destruction design was very cool). The portrayals of Harley Quin and The Joker were spirited, but seemed rather wasted on a film with nothing to say... well, except, "you can be antisocially criminally cool and still love one person". It's like this film was created by marketers/advertisers (Bill Hicks would hurl).

Of the "hip" anti-hero genre, Deadpool was far superior in all respects. As a superhero film, there's no character substantially likeable, unless, you'll forgive me for saying, you have the mind of a 12-year-old.

This movie just appeared to me like something that thinks it's a lot edgier and cooler than it actually is. I heard it barely deserves its PG-13 rating too. At least Deadpool actually was as irreverent and crazy as it advertised itself as even if it's not a perfect movie. I don't plan on seeing this one.
