SAVING MISTER BANKS. Some how they pulled it off. Good movie. I really enjoyed it.

The Young Poisoner's Handbook (1995)
"Based on a true story about a British teenager who allegedly poisoned family, friends, and co-workers." Pretty good. It's not wow but I have nothing bad to say about this movie. It's a serious movie but it feels like watching a comedy. Remind me a bit of Perfume. Worth watching... |
AMITYVILLE: ITS ABOUT TIME. (1992)
A clock that belonged to the original Amityville house releases all manner of evil in the new owner(of the clock)'s home. I don't think I would watch it again though it seems to have some good reviews. |
The purge. Loved it! Full of suspense and keeps you on the edge of your seat... Gotta admit, way more enjoyable than what I had expected.

The Quiet Ones (2014)
http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p...psa277e2d8.jpg TQO is an okay effort from Hammer, not great but just a time-passing demonic creep-flick. >>: B- ------------------------------------- Though it's out of the film's subject matter but just like to share that the character of Professor Coupland (played by Jared Harris) in this movie reminded me of Misir Ali...a famous character in Bengali Literature created in mid 80s by one of the most popular Bangladeshi authors Humayun Ahmed (1948-2012). Misir Ali is a rational psychologist. In the books, he is portrayed as a part-time professor of Psychology at the University of Dhaka. Though he is not a professional psychiatric consultant but because of his special interest & knowledge in Parapsychology and mysteries surround the human psyche; people suffering from paranormal or supernatural problems sometime comes to him in search of a satisfactory solution. As far I know, I believe Humayun Ahmed was the only author who introduced "Psychological Horror" in Bengali literature through his Misir Ali series and he's the only one who wrote Bengali novels, short stories & drama in this special genre, IMO. Humayun wrote 18 novels & 2 short story collections about strange cases of Misir Ali. I've always been a huge fan of Misir Ali stories. He's a non-believer but often likes to "believe" that the nature just only loves to play twisted games with human minds sometime and there's a scientific & psychological explanation in every supernatural or paranormal mysteries around him. Loved the way he used to come up with very interesting & rational explanations for some superbly creepy paranormal incidents. His commanding attitude or nature of controlling & rationalizing his own mind/self while confronting an utterly creepy supernatural incident always amazed me as a reader. Not all but there are some really cool & great novels/stories of Misir Ali that I totally believe can be perfectly suited for big screen adaptation but obviously requires some professional group of individuals who can handle it properly & got a good knowledge/understanding about horror cinema as well. But the frustrating & sad part is, though some people have tried in our TV media/channels but so far utterly failed to filmed them in any acceptable manner. ---------------------------------- Anna aka Mindscape (2013) http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p...psbf6e66c1.jpg The idea of a 'memory-detective' was cool but it couldn't done anything great with it. Pretty predictable but not bad overall. >>: B Afflicted (2013) http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p...psa58d8fdb.jpg Very average. >>: C |

4/10. Bad acting, terrible sound, no story or explanation although i thought the Blood Widow (no idea why shes called that) looked quite good. |
