Slumber Party Massacre (2021)
Another unnecessary remake
I went into this film with an open mind even though remakes have not been scoring well lately, but it just didn't deliver. The killer had zero personality and the director tried way too hard to make men look dumb and the women too strong that I didn't believe they were ever in any real danger. Basically it was mocking the old T & A flicks we grew up with. The kill scenes, though gory, were just sort of thrown in there without any preceding suspense or anything. I'm a horror fan that just felt less smart for sitting through this. It's a horror flick that came off as more a parody than anything else.
Vengeance: A Love Story (2017)
Did a complete moron write this junk?
This is literally the first time I've ever felt the need to write a review WHILE the movie is still playing on my tv. The courtroom scene alone did it in for me. A woman brutally raped by 4 men. Her daughter a witness (almost a victim herself) identifies the rapists. And at NO point during the trial did it even remotely look like anyone was on her side. From a jack@$$ judge to a lawyer making up ridiculous stories that are simply...believed without question. And to top it off...the entire courtroom applauds?? ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? Then, instead of laying low, the rapists continue to antagonize and reek havoc like they're untouchable. Even loudly admitting to their crime. I've always liked Nicolas Cage, but he lost a ton of credibility for even touching this bs fest.
