"Seeking a Friend for the End of the World" 3/10

I was bored to tears throughout this movie. Even Steve Carell was dull as hell. And I didn't even get to see the end of the world. I FEEL CHEATED!!! ::mad::

Demon Wind -- 6.5/10; This '90 flick features terrible acting, terrible dialogue, and a terrible sound design, but when it tries its best to channel the spirit of The Evil Dead, it is not without success. The director manages to maintain a nice spooky atmosphere in the rural setting (i.e. he doesn't resort to the standard perpetual close-up that plagues many a low-budgeter). I found its mustard-oozing, cop-feeling demons lovably vile, and give kudos to the production team for making a fair attempt at showing on the screen the demon that graces the movie poster.

This amazing horror-fantasy offering from Russia is not for the visually sensitive, as its director has one foot in the S. Raimi style and another in that of P. Jackson. I was unfamiliar with the folklore that inspired this spectacle, but suffice to say, my new acquaintance with it lends little thematic value to what I witnessed. There is plenty of obvious (and superfluous) symbolism of religion and classism. Check this out (ignore the user-added music):


You should watch the original, amazing for its time.

I saw it a couple days ago. The final act is brilliant; the rest, not so much.

The Frozen Ground -- 2.5/10; Another crime drama inspired by true events that was more uninspired than the average tv crime drama. C'mon, Cusack, pick some better scripts.

The Guest (2014)

Probably my own fault for looking forward to this one. The posh english sap from Downton Abbey plays a returning Vet in this thriller from the guy who made You're Next. It's enjoyable enough though totally over done, queue chilling music as the anti-hero stares menacingly and the 'reveal' is half explained and half baked. I think I needed another 2 cans of cider to totally enjoy this one.
