Orphan- I finally got around to watching this one after it sat collecting dust in my collection for over a year. I was pleasantly surprised by it, as it's definitely one of the best "evil child" movies I've seen. It has effective scares, good performances (especially by Vera Farmiga as "Esther") and a very unsettling atmosphere throughout. While it does bow to convention and cliche at times, it's still worth a watch. 4/5

Vera Farmiga played the mother, not Esther

Thanks for the correction! Next time I won't post half asleep. lol Her role was pretty damned demanding too, though, so props to her too.

Hatchet (2006) Every time I see this movie, I enjoy even more then the last time, it has everything and I liked to see in slasher, loved it 10/10

Hatchet 2 (2010) This is actually my second time, I have not seen since first time I saw, I was
really disappointing with this movie and I actually liked this less then the last time I saw it!

There missing something from the first movie and I think gore was actually step down from the first movie, I think, it took time for some gory moment in this, I didn't really find it all that fun.
5/10,. I wasn't really happy about the re-cast!

Off to see number 3

I watched Silent Hill a couple of days ago. It was not great, not terrible. I have certainly seen better, but it was pretty good. I would rate it 3 and a half out of five (almost a four, but not quite).

Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows

Not bad, not as good as the first though, the pacing was really wonky here and the slow-mo was way overdone.

I still like the BBC series and the first flick better but it was good enough to be fun.

Finally tracked down a bootleg VHS copy for download. Nice treatment but I was disappointed by the ending again, like the 60s version. The 1945 treatment remains as the best one. Oliver Reed shines in the lead with Elke Sommer giving him good company, and supported by a stellar ensemble cast with the likes of Sir Richard Attenborough, Herbert Lom, etc. Great to see Bond baddies Gert Frobe (Goldfinger) and Adolfo Celi (Thunderball) play victims for a change.

Now, off to find the 1989 version.

Not as impressive as the original, which was a "found footage" film whereas this one was a proper film. And the pre-destined ending was already hinted up in the original, so nothing new added to this one. Skip if you have better things to do.

Hatchet 3 (2013)

Yesterday, I saw all 3 back to back and it could easily fit all these 3 movies into one full movie,

I loved first movie, It's had gore, it some Nudity and it's some nice tounge in cheek moment that I loved everything about it!

In 2010 I could not wait to see Hatchet 2, I got hopes up little to high, cause, I didn't like, I found that it was tone down some bit,

I found it less gory and it took while for movie to get going after the boring middle part and with no humour.

I didn't really get my hope for this one, Cause, I knew if I did , I would be disappointed by this.

For me Hatchet 3 I found just little more fun and a bit better then Hatchet 2.
I loved the opening of the movie, that is one hell of way to start and I loved very gory opening in this movie.

I think movie a lot more better pace then second movie, there not many of Jump scenes in this movie like Number 2 and calmer scenes don't seem to drag on and I was not bored with this movie at all.

The side-plot of the movie could have been better but it okay and I really enjoyed the last few scenes in the movie.

I loved those effect in the last few scenes, it was very gooey, I did not expect that but I did find little silly how it happened.

Improvement on second movie but I felt they were missing the some of the dark Humour that made first one a lot more fun.

6/7 out of 10 really good sequel

xX_StarChild_Xx 06-14-2013 08:53 AM

I've heard from alot of people that Hatchet was awesome, Ill have to check it out sometime! Bloodstone: Subspecies II- A pretty good continuation from the original with Anders Hove still fuming and undeniably viscious and vile as he ever has been. Radu is one of my favourite on screen vampire characters ever and on the basis of Hove's performance and David Allens always neat stop motion work and some awesome gore effects I'll give this one a 4/5.
