Cloverfield.
I must admit, after watching the rather disappointing The Host last year, I was pretty conservative about 1-18-08. And the viral marketing added to the apprehension. But boy...am I glad to have finally decided to watch it! The movie is an absolute gem in monster movies, and for once, you actually care for what the hell's happening in front of you. The whole narration of the plot is awesome (with the second person view of things adding to the whole atmosphere) and the direction is smooth as hell. The monster is actually scary...not as much from his on-screen presence but from the emotions it surges out in the viewers...and the cinematography captures its essence to a T. Its a complete entertainer, and I really loved it as much as I loved Grindhouse last year. For that alone, I give it an 08/10

Mr. Brooks
good performances and a fun story, but over-complicated and artificial feeling. 6.5/10 Death Sentence James Wan's best film yet. A simple, fun exploitation flick with solid directing. Over the top, unbelievable and imperfect, but this is my cup of tea 7/10 The Wizard of Gore (1970) & Scum of the Earth (1963) Last night's Grindhouse Film Fest had a doozie of a double-bill. I'm no huge fan of Herschel Gordon Lewis, but catching these films on the big screen with a rowdy, drunken audience is a good time. The films are weak. Scum of the Earth is a simple early "roughie" about a model who gets blackmailed into posing for degrading photographs...blah, blah blah, it's has some truly atrocious dialog that makes for a good laugh. The Wizard of Gore is a psychedelic freakout that makes no sense, has terrible acting and gore that is separated from being scary by the worst editing in history. I hadn't seen in in a decade and it held no new surprises. bad films, fun night WOG - 5/10 SOTE - 3/10
