Species
I hadn't seen this for years so I figured I'd give it a watch. It was a little better than I had remembered it. The storyline is pretty cool & the gore is decent. The acting is good. I wasn't crazy about the ending, but it wasn't terrible or anything, it just could have been done better. There were also a few flashes of some pretty rough looking CGI, but not so much that it stands out as a glaring flaw.
C+
Species 2
I was surprised to find out that this was actually a pretty decent sequel. The plot flowed pretty well, alot of the same actors returned and the gore was, again, pretty decent. This series has an interesting take on alien lifeforms and how they might end up on Earth and/or go about destroying it.
C+
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
It was cool to get a little bit of the backstory & see some more of the family but overall, this was a fairly run of the mill hillbilly horror film. The acting's fine, the gore is pretty good, R. Lee Ermey is great, but the film is pretty predictable because we know which family members make it to the next one. I was entertained, but not blown away or anything.
