Road Kill
Not bad. Definitely not what I was expecting. Has the sort of mood that you get from movies like
Reeker and
Dead End - You know that something's not quite right - And it's not. Not quite "supernatural," this movie is definitely odd. The final "reveal" isn't much a "reveal" since the whole movie is building up to a predictable outcome but, regardless, I enjoyed this one. Better than average, which is more than one can hope for when randomly sampling new horror movies On Demand.
2.75/5.

Get Him to the Greek
What a blast - I really enjoyed this one. Jonah Hill was his usual funny straight-man self and Russell Brand was surprisingly restrained AND hilarious. Then again, I thought that he was the funniest part of
Forgetting Sarah Marshall, so this movie was pretty highly-anticipated for me. Unfortunately, looking at the movie holistically, I think that the parts are definitely greater than the whole. Sometime I found myself laughing out loud (like at the
hilarious fake music videos) and sometimes I found myself just "waiting" for the next funny part to come.
Regardless, it's a good buddy comedy. Mindless and fun. The fake songs are my favorite part.
3.75/5.
