Weeds (2005)
Best Show On Earth.
Weeds is easily the best show i have EVER seen. I love it. Season 6 was as strong as ever.
The show revolves around Nancy Botwin, a widowed mother who turns to drug dealing to keep up her upper class life style. She starts of as the victim in the first season but soon becomes the core of the families hell in later seasons making her character unlikeable, but in a good way.
Season 1 - 3 focuses on Nancy, her family and Heylia and her family. They spend the season in the town of Agrestic. Nancy starts to deal weed and soon changes the families lives forever when she is forced to burn down her house (and the whole of agrestic) and flee to ren mar, the coastal town where Andy father lives. Season 4 - 5 show Nancy working for Mexican politician Esteban Rayes and after escaping death after grassing up one of her colleagues she has his baby. The conclusion of the season 5 finale leaves the family stranded, and the move from city to city in a bid to leave. Season 6 is set in many different towns.
Season 1 - 9.5/10 Season 2 - 10/10 Season 3 - 10/10 Season 4 - 10/10 Season 5 - 8/10 Season 6 - 9.5/10
Brilliant show.
Gnaw (2008)
More Humorous than scary.
The opening is probably the best part of the film. It's got a bit of suspense and a decent actress playing her part of screaming victim.
The scene where the blindfolded girl walks into her own fate, with the misguided thoughts that its her boyfriend guiding her, was the best scene after the opening. I thought it was cleverly done and worked well.
The film did go down hill after that (and before that actually) as the script was not so good and the characters were not very likable. The stereotypical characters are a bit boring, most of all the blond girl who makes countless mistakes and like always sets her self up many times to him kill her. I mean who actually even thinks about there phone when someone is trying to kill them, let alone go back for it. Unrealistic and annoying.
The part where he gets he tongue ripped out is the most gore this film has to offer, it lacks any gore or a decent amount of blood that a film about cannibals would expect.
I'm going to give this film 3/10, I'm a harsh marker and believe this is a decent film. If you've got a night where you've got nothing to do then i would recommend watching it to pass time.
