Blah!! We have enough of those already.

I want ass kicking, damn it. WITH THE FEET!! :mad:

The Town....

Attack The Block

Found it pretty forgettable. Not bad or anything it just didn't really do much for me.

I tell you what the problem was. Not enough young hoodlums died.

In fact, unlike Shark Night, the bodycount wasn't high enough concidering it had no likable characters whatsoever. They should all die. All of them.

Cry Baby Lane (2000)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...ryBabyLane.jpg

It was a TV movie that aired on a Halloween edition of SNICK, Nickelodeon's Saturday night block of tween programming. It was a children's horror movie, much like their hit show Are You Afraid of the Dark?, but there was just one little problem: it was way too scary for the age demographic that it was aimed at. So said thousands of parents, anyway, and they bombarded Nickelodeon with complaints about their airing of this vile material. Thus, Nickelodeon never aired it again, sealed it away in their vaults, and pretended that it never even existed.

It was actually nothing but a simple & very average 80's feel like TV film for the kids that unnecessarily created lots of fuss at back then & remain as lost for the good until someone found it lately & posted on a site.

The Lost (2006)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...dc/TheLost.jpg

>>: B

I hated The Lost-hugely disappointing-probably my worst film of 2006 With probably the hamiest and most wooden acting I've seen in ages-you expect that in old turkeys not modern films.

Oh and phantomstranger thanks for your review of The Last Exercism I will give that a huge AVOID.

I think you're right there man! :D

Is that the Jack Ketchum adaptation? I was kinda disappointed in that especially the quick ending. That was the first book i read by Ketchum and was really hoping for more from the film.

The last movie I saw was The Dead One. The movie that was based on the Comic. I started to watch Gothika, but gave up when I wasn't paying any attention to the movie since I was dying to get on the computer and post instead. :D

Attack the Block:

Awesome movie. Probably the best movie I've seen all year. Seriously. The actors were great. The alien effects were understated, but worked perfectly. I can't really fund fault in this movie at all. Although I will say that Nick Frost really brought nothing to this film other than a "Oh hey! Look! It's that guy," kind of moment. But I guess they wanted at least one big name guy in the film to draw people in. Kinda too bad because the movie would hold up on its own quite well without him.

Red State:

This movie really should be titled "Red State (Or why Kevin Smith should stick to making comedies about sucking dick and fucking donkeys.) What a disappointment. Sure there are a ton of big name people in this. Big deal. The plot is boring, the movie doesn't feel the least bit fresh at all, and I really didn't care about a single character in the movie. A bad guy dies? Oh well. A good guy dies? *yawn* Plus it seemed like Smith was trying to pull a Tarantino by having some long, drawn out talking scenes. (He didn't pull it off.) Smith also tries to rip a page from Family Guy's schtick-book and have a few scenes of pure dead silence. (It was just as boring as when Family Guy does it so I guess he accomplished it.) In the end I was just glad the movie was over.

Laid to Rest (2009)

Liked it more than the first viewing. Pretty simple but effective slasher, particularly great in gore department.

>>: B+

Chromeskull: Laid to Rest 2 (2011)

If the first part was 'great in gore department' then I need to say...it's even greater than that. For the gore fans of the genre...it'd be like a sweet bloody dream came true! It begins at the exact point where the first one ended but then starts off with an entirely new angle of surprise. There are flaws but don't bother about it...just go, see & enjoy this bloody-entertaining slasher ride where you'll must find some awesome kills at least.

I enjoyed it!;)

alot of people dint rate this movie, i thought it was worth the watch.
7/10

I really dont understand how anyone can like Laid to Rest. The acting and the characters were so bad i couldnt stand it.

attack the block, funny moments but it bored me.
4/10

I thought it was brilliant. Sure there was a bit lacking acting/characterisation but I love how it was just a straight up trashy slasher and didn't try and legitimise itself and pretend to be something else.

Had no idea the sequel was out. Have to get onto checking that out. Cheers for the heads up roshiq you always solve the problem of what to download tonight! :D

Both were directed by Rob Hall-Exceptional make-up and horror special efx artist. Laid to Rest being his debut. If looked at from that kinda view the movie is great. Characters and actors aside.

Maybe it's just me but the hideous acting and the beyond stupid characters completely killed it for me. I was getting so annoyed and bored at the same time by it all that i just couldnt stand another minute.

I saw Rogue [2007] after some of y'all talked about it.

I enjoyed it, and it's for sure one of the better crocodile movies.

Ditto.

It's my pleasure, sir. :D

The Caller (2011)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...Caller2011.jpg

Somewhat borrowed the idea from Frequency and then made a fine twisted horror-thriller out of it where a ghost from the past seriously affecting troubled life of an young woman. The interesting thing I liked is that how they nicely carried the story till the end where the 'ghost' has a very little screen presence from start to finish. An elderly woman's creepy voice over coming from the other end of that cool old telephone set mostly done the job effectively. Liked the gloomy & dark setting of the film also. Overall, it was a pretty decent watch but I was expecting nothing particular but some freaking twists at the end where that old telephone set at least should ring one final time at the last shot.

Wasted on the Young (2010)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...idhdc/WOTY.jpg

Pretty slow burn but a decent drama-thriller about the conception of always go with the 'common safe guarded Popular opinion' among today's youth.

>>: B

i like the sound of the caller, going to check that out cheers dude.

Hesher (2011)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...Heshar2011.jpg

A slow burn but beautifully dark & heart wrenching comedy. Recommended.

A Horrible Way to Die (2011)

A serial killer Garrick has escaped imprisonment and is on the run with a killing spree. His ex..Sarah is trying to get her life back, moving to a new place, and attending Alcoholics Anonymous group meetings to deal with her alcoholism. She begins to feel comfortable enough as she starts dating a fellow AA member.

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...idhdc/AHTD.jpg

The story was pretty simple with a little twist at the end and that actually made it bit interesting but that only runs in last 10 to 15 minutes. The credit goes to the main actors who done their job quite convincingly.

But the film has a major problem. And that's the camera works. Yeah...it was one of those 'art-house' feel like films that got the misplaced, unnecessary & annoying type of camera works...The camera was rarely steady, it went in and out of focus so many times that it was frustrating to watch. Always zoom in & out, too much closeup shots in everywhere & nowhere and especially somewhat like someones staking or following the characters all the time. I don't know why people make films like this way? Probably to add an extra depth in to the characters in order to 'realize or feel' their pains or sufferings..blah-blah...I don't have a clue or give a damn; perhaps this is a non-conventional 3D approach. Or perhaps it was meant to be artistic but it failed horribly. The thing is here the director used a hand held camera approach and personally I don't hate the 'shakey cam' style in a POV/ found footage or documentary film. But this isn't a POV/FF or documentary sort of film, so I don't get the idea why the hell they need to went with this approach that would eventually ruined the film for most of genre film viewers?! I'm sure there wasn't a single tripod, pedestal or track used in the film. The camera jerked all over the place most of the time....A Horrible Way to Film for a director as well as A Horrible Way to watch a film & follow what's happening in it for the viewers!

Watching Cabin Fever

Really dug that one too.

last movies i watched where:
- urban legend
- urban legend's 2 final cut
- urban legend's 3 bloody Mary

least to say the fist one wasn't great but i felt that it was the best of the bunch, with the second one following how most sequels do and fall off a bit, wasn't as entertaining as first to say the least. the third one wasn't too bad i think it gave the trilogy a welcomed breath of fresh air and semi made up for the poor proformance of UL2.

Warrior
http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/..._V1_SY317_.jpg

Amazing. Probably the best movie i've seen all year. I strongly recommend it to everyone.

recently watched 1408 for the 20th time never gets old,though I do watch amusement as well alot,HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA it gets me dieing laughing but 1408 is just simply more artistic.

Looking forward to this. Hope I'm not too hyped to for it though - an actual decent MMA fighter (though there seems to be a ton of em in there anyway)..

Is Kurt Angle the main bad guy? Same they gave the role to a pro wrestler rather than an actor or real fighter. But I reserve judgment til i see it.

Yeah he plays the big bad russian that's like never been defeated.

I get your point but at least with Kurt, he's still an olympic gold medalist. Thats at least better then if The Rock of Hulk Hogan were in there. Imagine if it had been Fedor Emelianenko though? Kurt's character seemed like a movie version of him anyway.

just watched "ice cream man" it was funny,dumb,scary,and full of surprises,but I can't say I was having a happy happy day after watching it,HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Fuck that looks great. Will be checking that out for sure.

Creature (2011)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...Creature11.png

This is a below average B-movie like rubber suit-creature feature where most of the kills/deaths take place off-screen. There's some little boobies here & there & the only good thing is it has Sid Haig. But the surprising part is (as I read on different sites) this awful little flick somehow got the release on the theaters! When there's plenty of much better films with a bigger & decent budget releasing direct-to-DVD then how come this one managed to get on the big screen??!!

The Entitled (2011)

http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...c/Entitled.jpg

Paul Dynan's life is turned upside down when he decides to kidnap three young socialites and hold them ransom to save his family...

A well made intense thriller with a good cast.

>>: B+

i just watched creature, i found it so boring.

Attack The Block
http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/..._V1_SY317_.jpg

I applaud the movie for their attempt at originality and i found it entertaining. My only complaints are that i couldnt care less about the characters and the aliens are really stupid looking. Glow in the dark teeth? Seriously? Still not the worst looking aliens i've seen this year.

Take your pick....

I'm pretty sure the second one is just a woman laughing.

But i could be wrong..

United 93

Of course I know the events of 9/11 were terrible but honestly, I'm not one to post "RIP all those lost etc" on Facebook and have...let's say...controversial...views on American policy both before and after those events.

I thought this film was brilliant. Regardless of political views and anything to do with America, this film just showed that it was totally innocent people on routine flights that were doomed. The scenes in the flight control areas were ones of absolute confusion and mayhem - real life is not like an action film where the bad guys can just be tracked and stopped when there are thousands of other flights in the air all around. The scenes on the United Airlines Flight 93 itself were, from what we can know, very realistic and heartbreaking when action was taken too late. My heart was genuinely beating faster towards the end even though I've heard so many times how that flight ends. The sheer panic and desperation was captured brilliantly and that just isn't achieved by many "true story" films that I've seen. Not only did it show the victims and administation side of things but even the hijackers themselves were seen to be human. They were unsure of what they were doing and panicked when they thought they were going to be taken over by the passengers who fought back. Of course this is the negative side of being human; cowardly, vicious and pig-headed...but human nonetheless.

So much is said about 9/11 and how it changed America and the world but this brought it back to the thing that is really sad. That so many people died for absolutely no fucking reason whatsoever.

So much better than World Trade Centre, which was on TV the night before this. I forgot all about the real story and just didn't want Nicholas Cage to survive. ;P

BAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - We actually almost went to see Creature in the theater this weekend... But, oh God, the previews looked so bad - We just couldn't do it.

Couldn't agree more - THIS is the shite that gets a screen release?! :mad:

WELL, instead of Creature we saw...


Contagion (2011)


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...agion_ver8.jpg


An intense, grim little film. And I have to applaud Soderbergh specifically for making me feel dirty, dirty, DIRTY during and after the film (every time someone coughed in the theater, I wanted to spritz them with anti-bacterial spray).

Gripping character piece with incredible acting from everyone, most notably Damon, Law, Winslet, and Rex.

I enjoyed it - Thought it was good, but not necessarily mind-blowing. Recommended, but no need to pay the theater price.

3.5/5.

In other words, a recommended download. ;)

Dooley noted. :D

Re-Animator
I forgot how much I love this 80's gem!!!!! Stands the test of time.
