Directors: Gok Kim, Sun Kim | Stars: Hahm Eun-jung, Hwang Woo-seul-hye, Maydoni, Choi Ah-ra
Votes: 1,701
A fairly cliche K-horror movie elevated by the likeability of Eun-Joo and Soon-Ye. If you know quite a bit about K-pop, this is enjoyable, but if you're not a fan, you will spend most of the movie lost.
2. The Serpent and the Rainbow (1988)
R | 98 min | Fantasy, Horror
An anthropologist goes to Haiti after hearing rumors about a drug used by black magic practitioners to turn people into zombies.
Director: Wes Craven | Stars: Bill Pullman, Cathy Tyson, Zakes Mokae, Paul Winfield
Votes: 27,645 | Gross: $19.60M
The story is very sensationalized. It doesn't follow the plot of the book *at all.*
The special effects and visuals are quite good. However, the plot line concerns Hollywood voodoo; I just couldn't get into the movie.
3. Bordello of Blood (1996)
R | 87 min | Comedy, Fantasy, Horror
The Crypt Keeper returns to tell the story of a funeral parlor that moonlights as a vampire bordello.
Director: Gilbert Adler | Stars: Dennis Miller, Erika Eleniak, Angie Everhart, Chris Sarandon
Votes: 15,774 | Gross: $5.59M
There were some funny moments in this movie, but most of the jokes were corny, like you expect from "Tales from the Crypt."
It was very gory, and a lot of it looked really good considering how low budget and old this movie is.
There's a lot of nudity. There's a lot of nudity. Almost every woman in the movie is seen topless at least once.
4. The Dead Undead (2010)
R | 90 min | Action, Horror, Sci-Fi
Good Vampires battle Zombie Vampires while trying to hide their own identity and prevent the infection from spreading.
Directors: Matthew R. Anderson, Edward Conna | Stars: Luke Goss, Matthew R. Anderson, Spice Williams-Crosby, Luke LaFontaine
Votes: 917
Zombie vampires vs. vampires. That sounds fantastic! In reality, it's kinda boring. There's a lot of potential here, but it's mostly wasted.
That said, if Doc's backstory was a movie, I'd watch it.
5. The Awakening (I) (2011)
R | 102 min | Drama, Horror, Mystery

Fantastic movie. A bit cliche in places, but very atmospheric. I quite enjoyed it.

Votes: 20,398 | Gross: $0.02M
A great concept but really hit and miss. Some letters were really good, but others were just stupid. The number of stupid/not funny/not scary letters far outnumbered the number of good letters.

Votes: 11,661 | Gross: $0.14M
An okay film. It was a little hard to follow because of the nonchronological order. But Jeremy Renner is worth it.

Votes: 788
This has a good idea. The characters are really interesting, especially the patients.
However, most of the acting is really, REALLY bad, and the twist is obvious from very early on.

Votes: 4,558
Ignore the DVD cover; my copy looks like it's a Nazi-exploitation horror porn. It's not.
This film is actually really good. For the most part, it's just three people trapped in a room. The tension is good, though, and the actors are great. I HIGHLY recommend this one.
