Zodiac (2007)

All things considered, I thought it was pretty damn good. Good, solid performances, and a chilling ending.

I don't mind low budget (some of my favorites are low budget films), but I tell you what.....the music bugged the hell out of me, and maybe it was supposed to, so you could relate to the character better......;) But it was just too much, it completely took me out the movie. And the acting didn't help. I don't expect great acting when I watch a low budget horror film, or really any horror film.....but with those two things combined, it just made it hard for me to watch. Everytime I was finally getting into the film, it would cut to a scene of the band, or some annoying girl whining. And there I was, bored again. :D
But I will say, I liked the ending. And a couple of the death scenes were very effective.

Tobe Hoper's 1981 "The Funhouse", yeah what a dissapointment. the only good thing about it aside from the crazy fat woman puppet ontop of the funhouse, was the killer that kinda looked like he was a cousin of the little boy larva in Argento's "Phenomena".

I don't know.....I thought Elizabeth Berridge's shower scene was pretty good.

The 36th Chamber of Shaolin

One of those films that truly defines a genre.

Shoot 'Em Up


totally unbelievable action

complete mess of a plot

more dead bodies than all the Jason movies combined

and I loved every minute of it.

check your brain at the door and have fun with this one.
