Awesome, glad you enjoyed it. :cool:

Johnny English: Reborn a B - ?

I wouldn't be so generous.

If you liked NEDS then you'll prolly like Small faces. Very similar story.

I was trying to think of the name of that movie while I was watching NEDS.... Haven't seen it in years, thanks for the rec. :cool:

A Haunting In Salem, and boy was it bad. Burnt Offerings, and boy was it overrated. The Innkeepers, and boy was it awesome.

Disclaimer: these are all my opinions. I realize that many consider Burnt Offerings a classic and The Innkeepers boring... I think I also realize that A Haunting In Salem is terrible no matter who you are.

Damn Netflix doesn't have it at all.:mad:

Dark Days 9/10

Great doc that really makes you wonder what happened to the people and why this was the film makers one and only movie.

Just got back from seeing "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy". Thoroughly enjoyed it. Has anyone seen the one that was made in the 60s? I'm just wondering how it compares.

Im pretty sure Roshiq posted a review about the earlier one in this thread

Paranormal Activity 3 5/10


Meh is about all I have to say about that.

Kill Theory -

Maybe I'm just tired but I didn't find this to be a bad movie. I kind of forgot about the opening scene details which added some mystery to the movie. What starts as a standard slasher formula is mixed with a bit of Saw. Then you get some psychological stuff going on. It's not the best horror but a quick movie to watch while waiting for food to cook. It's also one of those "with friends like this who needs enemies" movies.

So at first i felt this was lacking the magic and wonder the movie seemed to portray itself as having but as it went on it gained some of what i expected and despite wasting Christopher Lee in a nothing role and feeling a little incomplete, i found it to be very good.

Btw, already downloaded Smiley's People, hope to see it soon!:cool:

Thank you, roshiq!

What is this?

It's a really fun shot-on-video horror movie from 1987.

Was not disappointed - particularly impressed by the CGI, given the budget and studio.

On the other hand, not looking forward to the American remake :mad:

I watched "The Faculty"!! Love it!

check out my website www.ineedanightlight.com! I'll be doing anecdotes about horror films as well as polls and discussions about horror films. I'd love some words from horror freaks like myself!

The Rum Diary

I enjoyed this but wasn't blown away by it. There were a few great scenes that had me chuckling away. Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas felt more like when you read a Hunter S Thompson book and was a more effective adaptation IMO. Still an entertaining film just not epic or something I'd re-watch often.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2011)

Looked great and the cast was solid but this was just another run of the mill thriller for me and nothing special. Haven't seen the original and probably won't bother after watching this.

Tried to watch that last night as well. Lost interest after 30 minutes. Got further with the book without finnish that one either.

No, Stieg Larsson just isn't for me.

I almost did that myself but it picked up after the first half hour and got interesting but the last 40 minutes dragged and the big reveal was predictable.
Once you get over how nicely shot it is the film just shows itself for what it really is.... just an over-hyped thriller with some tacked on "shocking" scenes.

With a great production value, set & costume design, the film comes with quite a notorious subject matter like Shakespeare authorship question, mainly inspired by The Oxfordian theory on the matter. I had actually very little idea about the topic until I saw the film & read about it last night. More than 2 hour long running time the movie has a good pace and as a political conspiracy thriller set in Elizabethan era, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Particularly Rhys Ifans (Earl of Oxford) & Vanessa Redgrave (Queen Elizabeth I) were great among the fine cast of actors. But when it comes to the historical facts, characters & accuracy, as far I know, they butchered most of it with a brutal fashion & one of the prime victims was the English poet & playwright William Shakespeare. So if you consider giving it a watch then my suggestion is take it as a "What if..." sort of film that's got an utterly fictional, (at times) comical & darker take on the source & 'mystery' behind the greatest treasures of English literature. Overall, a surprisingly well made film from director Ronald Emmerich, mostly in compare to his earlier big budget crap & disaster films.

The Innkeepers

couldn't get into this one

Devoid of atmosphere and the pacing is painstakingly slow. I usually love a good "slow-burn" movie but this one just burnt and crashed with a shitty finale as well.

watched 2 great movies.

cell 211

The story of two men on different sides of a prison riot the inmate leading the rebellion and the young guard trapped in the revolt who poses as a prisoner in a desperate attempt to survive the ordeal. 8/10

pefect sense

A story about two people a chef and an epidemiologist who fall in love just as an epidemic begins to rob the world's population of their sensory perceptions. 7/10

and i watched gutterballs fun movie 4/10

Agree %100. Love Ti West and slow burning horrors but it seemed like there were so many ways to make it alot more scary and for no reason he didnt include them. I.E. more creepy audio, more ghosts, more anything.......

Liked how it ended but didnt like the ending itself and also thought more of The Shiningesqe atmosphere wouldve made alot more creepy.

"Last edited by V"???

What have you been up to now, Stalin?

One Dark Night (1983) Can't believe I've never seen this before. Excellently creepy little film that is like candy for someone as morbid as me with a plot concerning psychic vampirism, telekinesis and energy fields this was adorable. Highly recommended.

Vampirism??

I would call it a zombie movie. Or.... a living dead movie. :rolleyes:

It's aaaaaaaall about semantics with you, isn't it? :p

Well, it sure isn't a drama.

So it's a comedy?

NO!!

It's horror and only horror.

30 Minutes or Less--------sucked

Super 8 --------I enjoyed this....kind of like an updated Goonies

Great stuff one of my favourite NZ films. Feel like going on a big gang flick bender now.

The Revenant

http://www.dreadcentral.com/img/news/may11/revenant.jpg

I thought this was solid. The indie guys are really tearing it up recently and putting out much better films than the major studios. I really liked how the humour was handled in this one not to OTT and the film had a certain amount of darkness to it. Reminded me of 80s stuff like Vamp. Well worth a look.

Er actually they DO talk about PSYCHIC vampirism in the film-a key part of the plot that you clearly missed(were you asleep when you watched it?If not perhaps you should try watching it again when you've finished rolling your eyes and feeling smug). PSYCHIC vampirism IS a completely different thing to vampirism-see I can do semantics too. Look it up on the net (I'm not going to do it for you) you may educate yourself.

Zeder/Revenge Of The Dead (1983)-Excellent Italian chiller that has more espionage and intrigue in it than I expected-I guess an influence from the Giallo era. At first I was a little underwhelmed by the very end but on reflection it works very well and there are some genuinely unsettling moments near the end that reflect why I adore more thought provoking horror like this.

Ditto, liked it too.

Alice, Sweet Alice..that was a strange one, I liked it but they could have tied up the loose ends a little bit more. It ended so abruptly.
The landlord(or whoever) has to be the most repugnant character in any film I´ve seen, ever! Hopefully I won´t have nightmares of that guy..ew.

Dread.


One word review: Dreadful.
