Goldilocks and the Three Bears: Death and Porridge (2024)

Based on the 19th century Children's Book Tale that surprisingly a horror film. I was interested.

[6/10 · 2 June 2024]

The film follows the story of Goldilocks, played by Olga Solo, who finds herself in a nightmarish scenario after trespassing into the home of a bear family. The narrative takes a grim turn as the traditional tale of curiosity and manners descends into a survival horror, emphasizing the consequences of "never entering someone's house without permission." Abigail Huxley delivers a compelling performance as Kelly, while Jack Barry's portrayal of Mama Bear adds a layer of complexity to the character. The chemistry among the cast is palpable, with each actor bringing depth to their roles. The film's cinematography captures the eerie atmosphere of the bear's house, with close-up shots that intensify the suspense. The special effects are modest yet effective, contributing to the film's chilling ambiance without overshadowing the story. The sound design is noteworthy, with a haunting score that complements the film's tension. The use of sound is strategic, accentuating key moments and enhancing the overall experience. Craig Rees's direction is solid, with a clear vision that translates well on screen. His ability to maintain suspense throughout the film's duration is commendable. While "Goldilocks and the Three Bears: Death and Porridge" may not redefine the horror genre, it offers a fresh perspective on a familiar story. The film's adherence to the theme of intrusion and its consequences is executed with precision. Despite some predictable plot points, the movie manages to hold the audience's attention and provides a satisfactory viewing experience. This is not Winnie the Pooh at all, this is a complete different tale based on a the 1839 novel in the 19th century, children's book and old 20th century cartoons that became this unknown horror film.

Darkness of Man (2024)

This was average movie, I can believe that he would rather skip recovery day and keep on fighting. That's exactly what we fight for.

[6/10 · 21 May 2024]

Set against the backdrop of a grim Los Angeles, the film weaves a complex narrative around Hatch's promise to a slain informant to protect her son, Jayden. As Hatch grapples with his own demons and the city's underworld, "Darkness of Man" delves into themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the cost of survival. While the film does not boast the high-octane action sequences of Van Damme's heyday, it compensates with a gritty atmosphere and a focus on character-driven storytelling. The noir elements are executed with a commendable finesse, adding layers to the plot and elevating the film above many of its DTV counterparts. Van Damme's performance is nuanced, showcasing his range beyond physical prowess. The supporting cast, including Emerson Min and Andrey Ivchenko, deliver solid performances that anchor the film's emotional core. The action, when it occurs, is well-staged, albeit less frequent than one might expect. The violence is visceral, with a raw edge that suits the film's darker tone. The cinematography and score complement the narrative, creating a cohesive and immersive viewing experience. In conclusion, "Darkness of Man" is a laudable effort that blends action with a moody, noir aesthetic. It may not reach the heights of Van Damme's classic works, but it stands as a testament to his enduring appeal and ability to adapt to the evolving landscape of action cinema. The substitles reminded me of JOHN WICK Substitles and the action was quite pleased, made me intense a little bit.

Not Another Church Movie (2024)

Wodfix that free movie app definitely saved my $10.29. Celebration Cinema, why did you put this one out, I am so glad I left. They kicked me out because this one was AWFUL

[1/10 · 19 May 2024]

My local Celebration Cinema, puts this movie out and heard this one was garbage, why did I snuck in for free and did not have to pay $10.29 at the concession stand, I pay for FURIOSA MAD MAX SAGA, you know which movie I did not pay? This one why? Awful absolutely Awful. 10% of the film was some humor but everything else was A. I, CGI, Dumb Sound Effects & Green Screens and I just think it is very controversial. I miss old parody films because it had that charm and humor, this modern version of parody, did not make any sense. Everything else was AWFUL. One of the employees from my local cinema said that I do not have a ticket for this one, he said that your going to have to purchase another movie from these selected titles, theyre going to shut this off immediately because no one showed but I snuck in without pay which is a big problem for the company. Instead, there is two options either 1. Pay $10.29 or pay one movie for a Sunday Discount for $6, or 2. Leave. I choose the second option because it just gotten worse in the courtroom scene when the judge and choir group are singing and I was like wow that was Painful. Like I was HAPPY that I did NOT pay for this. I got my stuff and left the movie theater, just like that, I left the movie theater because I have $0.00 in my checking account.

You Can't Run Forever (2024)

Some Good Moments, Cinematography & Simmons performance, the rest is downfall painful

[3/10 · 18 May 2024]

You Can't Run Forever" embarks on a cinematic journey that is as ambitious as it is flawed. The film, directed by Michelle Schumacher, attempts to weave a tale of suspense and survival, yet falls short in execution. The film's saving grace lies in the performance of J. K. Simmons, whose portrayal of the antagonist is both magnetic and menacing. His ability to pivot from an average suburban neighbor to a lunatic with a malevolent smile is commendable. The opening sequence sets a promising stage, with Simmons' character, Wade, displaying a chillingly casual approach to violence that could have been the cornerstone of a gripping thriller. This suffers from a lack of tension and a flat direction that leaves much to be desired. The narrative struggles with tonal inconsistencies, failing to maintain the suspense necessary for a thriller of this nature. The film's pacing is erratic, and the character development is insufficient, rendering the storyline predictable and uninspired. The supporting cast, while competent, is given little material to work with, resulting in performances that feel disconnected from the film's core. The script, co-written by Schumacher and Carolyn Carpenter, misses opportunities to delve deeper into the characters' psyches, opting instead for surface-level interactions that undermine the potential intensity of the plot.

In conclusion, This is a film that had the potential to be a compelling thriller but is ultimately let down by its execution. While it may offer a glimpse of J. K. Simmons' undeniable talent, the rest of the film fails to match his prowess, leading to a viewing experience that is, regrettably, forgettable.

The Coffee Table (2022)

Decent Job for Caye Casas, cinematography and the decapitation. The rest feels nothing intense me nor impresses me. It's not my glass of whiskey

[3/10 · 15 May 2024]

The Caye Casas direction is a film that dances on the edge of dark humor and absurdity. The narrative revolves around an innocuous piece of furniture that becomes the catalyst for a series of bizarre and grimly comedic events. The film's strength lies in its boldness to explore the darker side of comedy, yet it is this very audacity that also serves as its Achilles' heel. The humor, which often borders on the morose, may not be everyone's cup of tea, and the laughter it elicits is as uncomfortable as it is sporadic. The cast delivers performances that are both committed and convincing, with notable portrayals that capture the essence of their quirky characters. However, the script did not serve them well, leading to moments where the comedy feels forced rather than organic.

Visually, "The Coffee Table" offers a stylized aesthetic that complements its offbeat tone. The cinematography and production design are commendable, creating a distinct look that stays with the viewer. Yet, the film's pacing and some directorial choices leave one feeling disengaged from the plot's potential intrigue. This experiment in genre blending that shows promise but doesn't quite hit the mark. It's a film that might find a cult following for its unconventional approach, but for the general audience, it may prove to be an acquired taste that not all will acquire..

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024)

FURIOSA is a GOLD PLAQUE of the YEAR with HIGH ON ACTION

[10/10 · 15 May 2024]

In the desolate yet visually stunning landscape of George Miller's latest masterpiece, "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga," the audience is thrust into a maelstrom of high-octane action and profound storytelling. This prequel to the critically acclaimed "Mad Max: Fury Road" not only expands the lore of the titular character but also redefines the boundaries of the action genre. Anya Taylor-Joy had 30 lines of dialogue that delivers a tour-de-force performance as Furiosa, embodying the character with a fierce determination and emotional depth that captivates from the first frame. Chris Hemsworth's portrayal of the villainous Dementus is both charismatic and menacing, providing a perfect foil to Furiosa's heroism. George Miller's direction after watching FURY ROAD is nothing short of masterful & beautiful creations of what road action is really like; he crafts a narrative that is both expansive and intimate, with each set piece surpassing the last in scale and spectacle. The cinematography is a character in itself, painting the Wasteland of "WHAT A LOVELY DAY" with a palette that is as beautiful as it is desolate.

"Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga" is a testament to the power of myth-making. It's a film that not only honors its predecessors but also stands on its own as a monumental achievement in cinema. With a perfect blend of relentless action, compelling characters, and a story that resonates with the human spirit's indomitable will, this film is the best films of this year of action. It cannot be lower at all. It delivers the goods with a gold plaque.

The Strangers: Chapter 1 (2024)

it's been a while since 2018's PREY at NIGHT, This became a trilogy, Really I wonder why?

[4/10 · 15 May 2024]

The Strangers: Chapter 1' embarks on a journey to rekindle the chilling essence of its predecessor, yet it stumbles into the abyss of the overexploited home-invasion genre. Directed by Renny Harlin, the film attempts to lay the groundwork for a new prequel trilogy but does so with a palpable lack of originality and an overreliance on worn-out tropes. The narrative follows Maya and Ryan, portrayed by Madelaine Petsch and Froy Gutierrez, whose road trip takes a detour into terror. Stranded in a remote Airbnb, they become the prey of the franchise's notorious masked antagonists. While the setting is ripe for tension and fear, the execution falls short, with the film succumbing to predictable jump scares and a script that lacks the subtlety required for a truly harrowing experience. The performances, while earnest, are hindered by characters that are crafted more as archetypes than as fleshed-out individuals, leading to decisions that serve plot convenience over logical storytelling. The antagonists, once symbols of random and unfathomable violence, are now reduced to mere shadows of their former selves, lacking the enigmatic terror that once haunted viewers. In its endeavor to pay homage to the original, 'The Strangers: Chapter 1' instead echoes its scenes and dialogues without capturing the same suspenseful atmosphere. It's a cinematic paradox; a film that is both a retread and a step backward, leaving audiences with a sense of déjà vu rather than dread. In conclusion, 'The Strangers: Chapter 1 is a reminder that many efforts of success is to revive a franchise that perhaps should have been left undisturbed. It serves as a reminder that not all chapters are worth revisiting, but especially when the story has nothing new to say. Chapter 2 here it comes...

In a Violent Nature (2024)

The Slasher of Graphic

[9/10 · 14 May 2024]

"In a Violent Nature" emerges as a visceral tour de force in the realm of slasher horror, a genre that often revels in its own excess. Director Chris Nash's homage to the low-budget '80s slashers is both a nod to the past and a savage reimagining for the modern era. The film's narrative, while not groundbreaking, serves as a sturdy scaffold for the true star of the show: the kills. The undead protagonist, Johnny, is a relentless force, his origin story rooted in a tragic mishap that sees him resurrected with a singular, vengeful purpose. The practical effects are a standout, with each kill executed with a level of gore and creativity that pushes the boundaries of the genre. The use of traditional tools of death, such as a hatchet and drag hooks, lends a brutal authenticity to Johnny's rampage. The cinematography is deliberate, with lingering shots that build tension and a camera that stalks its prey with the same predatory focus as Johnny himself. The film's pacing is unyielding, each scene meticulously crafted to escalate the horror until it reaches a crescendo of blood and terror. The performances are commendable, particularly given the film's modest budget. The rest of the cast are forgettable and don't trust them one bit, remember you're here for the gruesome kills not for other characters, Johnny is your main focus.

"In a Violent Nature" is not just a slasher film; it's a statement. It's a bloody, unapologetic celebration of the genre that understands its roots and is not afraid to hack its way through the underbrush to carve out its own legacy. With its unflinching approach to horror and a killer who could very well become the next icon of terror.

Force of Nature: The Dry 2 (2024)

Stunning cinematography & landscape, but that's all I need to know

[4/10 · 13 May 2024]

Whilst this movie did have "some" positives, overall, I didn't like it, and didn't enjoy it. Certainly, the cinematography was phenomenal and brilliantly shot across Victoria in the Otways, Dandenong and Yarra Valley ranges. In fact, I'd go so far as to say the stunning rainforest landscape is not only the integral character, but the absolute real star in this film. The story centres around five women who go on a corporate hiking trip deep in the rainforest, but only four return, each telling a different story and each of them all seem to be hiding something about their traumatic experiences. As it happens, the one who is missing is "Alice" (played by Anna Torv), and "of course", she's an informant to Federal Agents Aaron Falk and Carmen Cooper (played by Eric Bana & Jacqueline McKenzie) on a big money laundering case they were working on. When Falk receives a panicked, static phone call from Alice which cuts out half way through, Falk knew "she's in trouble" and needs help. Typically & predictably, agents Falk & Cooper are sent to investigate and try to get to the bottom of what "really happened" out there in the rainforest. As Falk and Cooper close in on the case, they uncover worrying details about the connections between all the other women, hence increasing the concern about his missing friend and informant. Of course, again, rather predictably, they're in a somewhat race against time to hopefully find Alice alive before "the mother of all storms" hit, halting the search, this has many problems beyond the awful title (Force of Nature) which is totally irrelevant and has nothing to do with the storyline. As for "The Dry", it's much more like "The Wet". Very, very wet!! The plot itself is weak with too much going on, and it doesn't hold your interest in the same way its predecessor did. In my view, despite some outstanding performances, especially by Eric Bana, it's a poor follow up to the first movie. Also found the movie and the narrative "way too confusing and over complicated" especially when it constantly flicks back to Falks painful memories of the past when (as a boy), his mother was lost in the same rainforest region many years earlier. The dynamics & relationships between the women are difficult and strained, with a whole mirage of complex inter- related and interpersonal relationships which I thought made it way more confusing than it needed to be. As for Alice, she's somewhat of a bully and quite unlikeable. This is a problem because I feel it leaves the audience not really caring what happens to her. Deborah-Lee-Furness's performance as the sensible "mother-like" persona in constantly preventing all the other women from killing each other & hosing down quarrels, was "ok", predictable, but nothing to write home about. Way too many side stories that lacked connection or substance. Clunky acting and shallow dialogue. Just had so much potential. The end was disappointing as was the overall feeling I left with.

Bloodline Killer (2024)

Happy Mothers Day to all the Mothers out there that cared for sons.

[5/10 · 13 May 2024]

Shawnee Smith (SAW FRANCHISE) her role as a mother reminds people that mothers in horror films do appreciate their sons very much. The premise is intriguing, with the killer's identity and motivations revealed early on as well as the sister shows up, stripping away the mystery that could have propelled the narrative. While the performances, particularly by Taryn Manning as Sam Marrin and James Gaudioso as Connor Cole, are commendable, they're not enough to elevate the predictable plot. The film's pacing is inconsistent, with a setup that takes too long to unfold and a climax that, despite its potential for excitement, is marred by dim lighting that leaves viewers squinting rather than shrieking. The twist of focusing on male victims is a refreshing change from the genre's norms, but it feels like a missed opportunity to delve deeper into the characters' psyches. "Bloodline Killer" tries to pay homage to classics like "Halloween," but it falls short of delivering the suspense and terror of its predecessors. The script's lack of subtlety and the film's over-reliance on clichés make it a forgettable addition to the horror roster. Is a film that might appeal to die-hard fans of the genre looking for a casual watch, but it won't leave a lasting impression. It's a middle-of-the-road effort that neither fully disappoints nor excites.

The Last Stop in Yuma County (2023)

Excellent Crime Thriller, Francis Galluppi first feature film was brilliant. Confirmed the next director of the next Evil Dead film

[10/10 · 11 May 2024]

Director Francis Galluppi first feature film was excellent, small cast of actors in one environment at the deserts of Arizona. I honestly believe this is better than Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, not many people liked and enjoyed it, there's a few people like me that did not cared of the movie that much. This tells the story about a businessman, two bank robberies and the waitress and a few other folks that came for the gasoline truck, right in the beginning that gas truck collapsed and truck driver did not survived. The tension is palpable, the atmosphere thick with anticipation, and the characters are as richly textured as the American landscape they inhabit. Galluppi's direction is nothing short of brilliant. He orchestrates the suspense with the skill of a seasoned maestro, ensuring that the audience is on the edge of their seats from the opening shot to the final frame. The cinematography is a visual treat, capturing the stark beauty of the desert and the claustrophobic intimacy of the diner with equal aplomb. The script, penned by Galluppi himself, is a work of art. It weaves together elements of dark humor, pathos, and suspense to create a tapestry that is both intricate and engaging. The dialogue crackles with intensity, and the plot twists are executed with such finesse that they leave the audience breathless. Through this 90 minute feature length film and a indie film, is a cinematic triumph. It is a film that not only entertains but also lingers in the mind long after the credits have rolled. With its impeccable direction, stellar performances, and a modern classic that will be remembered as one of the finest examples of American indie filmmaking and of course the script that's as sharp as a knife.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024)

Not very exciting and you just left disappointed

[2/10 · 10 May 2024]

This movie was horrible. Plot made zero sense. The action compared to the other titles in this series was sub par. Mae lied that she couldn't speak then could all of a sudden speak. My notion was the virus made humans primitive and lose speech. However we see some humans with zebras acting as animals and Mae is opposite. With no reference or background on why this is. The king wants better for the ape race, however, Noah helps the humans get a chip to halt the advancement of apes. This movie was an abomination to the series, except War of the planet of the apes that did had a better story, plus it was nominated for must-see in metacritic don't waste your time. Overall, Really disappointing if you binge watch all the others and expect the actual plot to make sense with the others.

New Life (I) (2023)

John Rosman's first time directing this feature indie film did a pleasant job and I do appreciate the direction of a virus contagious film

[6/10 · 9 May 2024]

New Life is about this female name Jessica Murdock that has a a virus called embodia but it's actually called the Cytomegalovirus (CMV). This can be serious contagious because when one person had it then it can get worse to the next person that'll become the infection themselves. The lead performances by Sonya Walger and Hayley Erin are commendable, bringing depth and nuance to their characters emotional journeys. This is actually John Rosman's directorial debut (first film ever directed) is ambitious, showcasing his ability to twist common tropes into something fresh and engaging. The film adeptly handles themes of adversity, hope, and the human spirit's resilience in the face of life's chaotic elements that doesn't know about the virus until it becomes one. There was only a couple downsize to the rating. Despite its efforts to innovate, the film occasionally falls back on predictable thriller conventions, which may detract from the overall experience for some viewers like dog's death and the ending which we've known that early on why is Jessica carrying the virus and spreading to people that doesn't know they had it. This is a very short movie only 84 minutes and there are moments where the pacing stumbles, particularly in the transition between the thriller and horror elements, which could have been smoother. But if I can think of anything else, "New Life" is a commendable effort that stands out for its strong performances and the director's fresh take on overused tropes. While it may not reinvent the genre, it offers enough intrigue and emotional depth to warrant a watch. The film's exploration of life's unpredictability and the pursuit of redemption is both thought-provoking and entertaining, making it a solid addition to the thriller-horror landscape.

Arcadian (2024)

ARCADIAN is better than The Fall Guy, more violence, more scarier and more right than stuntman dating a director

[10/10 · 2 May 2024]

ARCADIAN is one of those films that is like hmm I might check this out on MAY DAY which that does exist. After watching this film I do have thoughts, when people saw this in other cinemas thank goodness I don't have this film in my crossroads mall theater by Farm and Fleet, three weeks later, yesterday I watched The TERMINATOR, today I watch ARCADIAN. I got thoughts about this when did this film became the scariest creatures as a monster horror can ever get? The cinematography shakes sooo good that the vfx on the creatures themselves looks demonically scary. Nicolas Cage is back was the thought that went through my head while watching his past films in my teenage years. ARCADIAN is a bit slowburn, But I would argue that it's the simplicity of the film that brings it to life. There are life changing messages throughout the film that are hidden beneath a great story and Amazing acting.

The Fall Guy (2024)

I did not find this enjoyable. The Nice Guys, Stay, US of Leland, Blade Runner 2049 & Drive were good Gosling films. This one is toned down for younger audiences.

[4/10 · 2 May 2024]

THEATRICAL VERSION: The Fall Guy released on May 3rd, and one of the highest grossing and most highest ratings on any websites which 10% was approved and appreciated. 10% of Innovative Concept that brings a fresh perspective to the action genre, with its unique blend of humor. 10% of the film's cinematography is commendable, with some scenes truly capturing the essence of the narrative. Finally, 10% of the sound design/effects is immersive, enhancing the overall viewing experience. Now I did however find problems of The Fall Guy, the first was the plot falls into the trap of predictability, making the viewing experience less engaging. Second, the characters developement was a lack depth and their motivations are not well-explained, leading to a disconnect with the audience. Third, the runtime and how can be better for mature audiences like myself. The film suffers from pacing issues, toned down rating and some scenes dragging on unnecessarily while others feel rushed. Trimmed it to 20 minutes with good profanity throughout the film. Fourth was the Underwhelming Performances. The performances, particularly from the lead actors, are underwhelming and fail to do justice to their characters. Fifth was the Lack of Originality, because the film borrows heavily from other action films, resulting in a lack of originality. And finally, the dialogue is weak and fails to convey the emotional depth of the characters. In conclusion, The Fall Guy did had brilliance moments, the biggest problem was let down by predictable plot, lack of character development, and extremely underwhelming performances. It's a film that had potential but failed to fully realize it.

Tarot (I) (2024)

Why this film could of have an R-Rating of "Tarot" would have been more scarier. This was unsatisfied

[2/10 · 1 May 2024]

Tarot is the newest film that comes out The 3rd of May, which why was this a thing? Idk if I would see this Thursday evening at 8:15pm. 2/10 is acceptable because the horror is there but not enough supernatural like EVIL DEAD RISE was. I was predicted that this would have an unrated cut in the physical media release but maybe not or maybe because I would be disappointed, does this film is something that you'll run to buy for $13 ticket? No not for $13, when it comes out on Movie Downloader for free then yes absolutely. So here's the story of what Tarot is about: In the realm of horror cinema, Tarot" emerges as a cinematic attempt that ambitiously seeks to delve into the mystical and often chilling world of tarot card readings. However, despite its promising premise, the film falters significantly in execution, resulting in a final product that is less than enchanting. The narrative, which revolves around a group of college students encountering a malevolent force through a tarot deck, is plagued by predictability and a lack of originality. The film's adherence to conventional horror tropes leaves little room for surprise, and the plot unfolds in a manner that is all too familiar to the genre's aficionados. The ensemble cast delivers with earnestness, but their efforts are undermined by a script that lacks depth and fails to provide a fresh take on the supernatural horror narrative. The characters are thinly written, and their decisions often border on the cliché, detracting from the film's potential to engage and thrill. "Tarot" does offer some not bad moments of intrigue, particularly with the aesthetically pleasing design of the tarot cards themselves. These brief instances, however, are not enough to elevate the overall experience, which is marred by a series of uninspired and formulaic scare sequences. "Tarot" is a film that had the opportunity to explore the rich and dark tapestry of tarot mythology but instead chooses a path well-trodden, leaving viewers with a sense of what could have been. It is a movie that may momentarily distract but ultimately fails to leave a lasting impression or contribute anything noteworthy to the horror genre.

Lowlifes (2024)

My First Tubi Original Film not a HUGE Cinematic Budget, Indie Horror is Different

[10/10 · 28 April 2024]

This is shocking but the first film that does not have one Certified Audience neither all Audience score at all. Except two reviewers that put it out to the YouTube themselves. Lowlifes is The Hills Have Eyes meets Were the Miller's, The Were the Miller's type family are the cannibals and your rooting for them a ton while the other folks that served spaghetti and meatballs ate definitely going to be dead, yep only 5 of that family were murdered, 3 of the type Miller family are dead as well as the sheriff. So 9 kills of this film and are we grateful that one cannibal left of the family barely survived from a limping leg. Yep I cannot keep this spoiler free because DRUMDUMS stated that this is harder to do, which is why the spoiler review on the other half needs it for sure. The cannibal family loves blood and raw stuff even cooked delicious. Is the type of indie horror film that is not for everyone, if you have Tubi then I am happy, if not then really Rotten Tomatoes get your reviews straight. My rating 9.6 out of 9.2.

Sasquatch Sunset (2024)

88 minutes of naked Bigfoots is weirdest and Audience may go what and why?

[6/10 · 27 April 2024]

This film features apelike sasquatches as they try to survive. They seem to be the last of their kind and headed for extinction . There is a lot of gross behavior to be seen and some have walked out of theaters. To be honest , I do not think early humoids acted thos way but it is still worth a watch . The music is very good behind the small cast actors. The bigfoot costumes are good too fully naked jeez this is for onlyfans exclusive bigfoot edition. 95% of people won't like, hate in fact. And I agree on many factors. It's pretty gross to watch and not a ton happens, though I think it's wrong to say there's no plot. It's just not a plot in the way we think about a plot. But things do change and stuff does happen over the course of the movie. If you want something very different and sometimes gross check this out. This was like me cussing the film on that road scene what did they do and why wasn't law enforcement could of kill them, only two saquatches were killed in this movie.

Infested (2023)

Dozens of Creepy Crawley's in a high rise apartment complex is EVIL DEAD RISE with ears.

[8/10 · 26 April 2024]

French horror film which refreshes the genre that is far too under-represented in France (at least poorly). Incredible soundtrack, well-held tension throughout the film. This Dozens of spiders thinking would you know what it is? This is the first time director that came out of nowhere that said. According to Sam Raimi he stated that You should be the next director for EVIL DEAD FILM next year which he is looking for a outstanding director that would make this film intense, yes this french creepy crawley 8 legged creature not just one but hundreds dozens of them that absolutely made me feel extremely intense. My body was wooah definitely good stuff.

Abigail (2024)

Who doesn't Love Vampire Horror & Monster Horror

[7/10 · 23 April 2024]

Well Critics with a Certified Fresh and Audience are loving this film to death because after a controversy of Melissa Barrera getting fired from Spyglass Entertainment due to a social media post about the conflicts during the Hamas war. (BTV) rated this film a 6.5/10 because it did had it's problems, on the other hand (DRUMDUMS) gave this film a higher rating than BTV did (Trapped on a Island) Wow everyone has their own different opinions between the two reviews I watched. When I watched this because every Tuesday is $5 deal. I went ahead and watch this. Let me tell you something the vampire effects was better than just your normal cheesy B-Horror vampire film. The teeth had a different form of becoming one of them. Remember the end of ready or not about these Satanic ritual people explode, good news the sunlight and sticks after stabbing they do explode amounts of practical effects they do have small amounts of CG but that's noticeable. Katherine Newton & Dan Stevens wow back to back after previous films like Godzila x Kong & Lisa Frankenstein, Rest in peace to Angus Cloud, his final film after "Amounts of Drug Overdose" Kev Durand looks like a bodybuild version of Elon Musk, but drew a wee-wee in the side cheek was, why is their a wee wee on your cheek? Melissa Barrera is outstanding performance and I think it took credits for sure.

In conclusion, Abigail was a good way to show Melissa Barrera's on how she does it right, Dan Stevens was good, I should watch "The Guest" sometime. This film did had a not very slow but when the gang are at the bedroom that's when the film's burst out the vampire monster horror extravaganza. What exactly what I should rated this $5 deal. BTV is 6½ out of 10, DRUMDUMS is Trapped on a Island. Hmm how about 7.1/10.

Apocalypse Now (1979)

Last year I starting to watch Apocalypse Now but it is the Workprint Version and I started it last year and did not finished this film almost a year later, oops I was due.

[10/10 · 23 April 2024]

Apocalypse Now is an absolute masterpiece that deserves every bit of praise that it has received. From the stunning visuals to the incredible performances, everything about this film is top-notch. Here are five reasons why I think it deserves a 5-star review:

The direction: Francis Ford Coppola's direction is absolutely masterful. Every shot in this film is meticulously crafted to convey a sense of dread and chaos. The use of sound and music is also incredible, with the haunting sound of helicopters and the eerie music of The Doors creating a truly unforgettable atmosphere.

The performances: The performances in this film are truly outstanding. Martin Sheen gives an incredible performance as Captain Willard, perfectly capturing the character's descent into madness. Marlon Brando is also phenomenal as Colonel Kurtz, bringing a sense of gravitas and danger to the role.

The reason I started to watch the Workprint Version is because it has a longer scenes that were not in either cuts, surprisingly shocking but people were correct this is the most important film of 1979, famous director known for The Godfather films, but the Workprint Version Quality it is posted on YouTube which thank you, wasn't the best Quality and barely hear the music score, shot by shot scenes and boy was this film right all along. I was a year due for not watching the entire movie that's because the creator "Sunday Pancake Breakfast" did not posted, there was 12 parts made it shorter but at least I gave it a break for a while and decided should I finished this and today I finally did for the first rime in a year, the critics and audiences are right definitely a watch for sure. Anyway a solid 10/10 plaque movie of the late 70's which it did.

History of Evil (2024)

Keep your expectations extremely low. This is not the best film but did had its moments not rewatchable

[4/10 · 13 April 2024]

"History of Evil" boasts significant potential, drawing inspiration from Stephen King's "The Shining." The film excels in creating an eerie atmosphere with commendable cinematography and sound design. The actors deliver strong performances, enhancing the suspenseful narrative. However, the movie falters in its conclusion. The ending feels rushed and leaves many questions unanswered, undermining the buildup. Despite its promising start, the film's inability to deliver a satisfying resolution diminishes its overall impact. "History of Evil" offers a thrilling journey but ultimately fails to provide a fulfilling destination. Overall History of Evil literally has the same idea as one of my ongoing horror films. This is because of its small nature, cannot use the idea properly. The dystopic idea is quite intriguing, but past struggles, which is the main subject, cannot be exercised well enough. The kills were offscreen which reminds me of 80's slashers.

Venus (I) (2022)

VENUS starts off slow but the climax is when SOLAR ECLIPSE DAY happened

[9/10 · 8 April 2024]

VENUS is a weird one to talk about because the fact of having Ester Expósito as the protagonist of Venus implies good advertising sales for it since the actress is a character that has grown exponentially in recent years within Spanish cinema. The quality of his performance in this film was complex due to the script but that does not mean that he did a bad job, on the contrary, he defends his role with all the energy and professionalism. The Horror atmospheric does not kicked in until a while but it's very slow so it may take a while to get there. This was a excellent film, the score of this film was the best part of the film. Happy Solar Eclipse Day (Watched it in 2023) This is one of the horror films that did not get an honorable mentioned in the best horror films of 2023. Which did came out in 2023, but in film festivals in 2022.

Veronica (I) (2017)

SCARIEST HORROR FILM OF 2017 AND PERFECT TIMING FOR SOLAR ECLIPSE DAY

[10/10 · 8 April 2024]

This is my second watch today, without a doubt one of the EXTREMELY SCARY HORROR FILM OF 2017. Veronica although may not have those jump scares but still will keep you anxious throughout the movie. It is disturbing after watching the whole movie. And guess what. "It is based on a true story."Yes the movie is made by taking into account the report written by the police officer who was given to investigate the case in real life. After completing the case he was so disturbed that he resigned from his job just a month after finishing the case. I am sure this movie is gonna send chills down your spine TINGELING AND GHOOSEBUMPS on those scares. In one scene in the beginning "On the day of the solar eclipse lets just say April 8th 2024, her instructor explains how some ancient cultures used eclipses to stage human sacrifices and summon dark spirits. Very Dark and Brilliant.

Baghead (2023)

Baghead (based on a short film in 2017 of the same name), this was good and definitely underrated horror films for sure.

[7/10 · 5 April 2024]

Baghead was not the scariest film of this year, but it is very underrated horror film, this film was made last year and decided to release this film one year later, what took them so long, it's like OUT OF DARKNESS that was released in film festivals of 2022 and did not get a theatrical release date till two years later, is like why can't they release both of these films in 2023 at the same time. Stupid and Revoking. Anyway, Baghead did impress me with good amount of scares, the main lead (Iris) was the owner after her father died from burning him alive by her wife/mother of Iris. Katie was probably annoyed way too much and wanted her to die, thankfully she did. Neil and the Witcher did not go as planned so Iris is still the owner and Neil wasn't. But in conclusion; Baghead was good and did have a significant impact on Iris herself on how she is still the owner after the ending conclusion. You get approximately two minutes, after two minutes then hell breaks loss.
