Angora, no problem. Glad you enjoyed it. I'm feeling a 70's vibe to films lately since House of the Devil and more recently (for me at least) Lords of Salem (didn't love it but really dig Robs directing & the lighting especially), so watched:

Cassadaga

very much a homage to Giallo. Perhaps not Argento worthy but interesting none the less. Have a suspicion Giallo style may be the next found footage trend. Especially with Leonardo De Craprio acquiring the rights to re make "the Chaser". Last I heard Ryan Gossling was on board. So I guess it may not be a total write off. Although not Giallo as such it could very well have a cross over type of appeal.

On a related subject: those who haven't seen Aaron Kwok in Murderer, that baby is Korean Giallo. Not a perfect film but had me interested start to finish.

Thanatomorphose

Add that to the "I should charge the director with murder; there is part of my life I will never get back" list

Other than the fantastic make-up effects, the film is a failure on all levels. If you want to make an art movie fine, this isn't it though. The protagonist is unlikeable and thus can't really care what is happening. Dull. Just google the film, admire the visual effects and call it a day. You will be saving a lot of precious time. Watch "Expiration" instead.

"Moonrise Kingdom" 4/10

OMG

I knew it before and I definitely know it now. Not a Wes Anderson fan.

Some would call his movies quirky. Some would call them dull and not funny! Not funny! Not funny!!

another in McConaughey's "killer" run of great roles. This ones a bit different but very good

Simon Killer [2012]
7/10

This movie was indeed different. It didn't have a lot going on, it's very slow pacing but it was very interesting. It kept my interest through out, the only time I felt awkward was during some of the sex scenes. I'd say more but I'd probably give too much away. During the end of the movie I was wondering to myself, what truly happened with Simon and what did he exactly do? It left me wanting more answers and I love whenever movies do that to me. Hate whenever movies show me every little thing that happens, I like when the movies leaving me wanting more and this movie did exactly that. And I loved Brady Corbet of course! Ever since I saw him in the movie Mysterious Skin & the remake of Funny Games, I truly respected him a lot as an actor. He plays good playing these kind of roles I must say.

"Haunt" 8/10


Surprisingly good movie. Like REALLY good.

A strong debut by director Mac Carter. Easy to see James Wans latest movies as inspiration. I'll definitely keep an eye on this guy in the future.


Highly Recommended.
