Remedy this situation.

Without a knowledge of Argento, Bava and Fulci, it is hard for me to accept you as a true horror fan;)

Flood Although this film had more than it's fair share of cliche characters I still enjoyed this Brit disaster movie.7/10

And the movies for tonight from Night ONE of 8 FILMS TO DIE FOR...

It is late and I am very tired, so it will be a short rundown for now...


1. Unearthed


This movie doesn't try to do anything novel; Monster movie ripping off Alien 3. Yes, Alien 3. Didn't bother ripping off either of the good ones... The script was poor, the direction horrible (the director made up for lack of budget by over-using the shaky cam), and the special effects were pathetic. I consider this movie essentially Alien 3 with slightly better CGI but in the desert on an Indian Reservation... I give it 2 stars out of 5.


2. The Deaths of Ian Stone


The Matrix meets Dark City meets Groundhog Day... But not in a good way. At first glance, the concept seems intriguing and well thought-out. The scares are fantastic. In fact, I would go so far as to say that the first 2/3 of the movie was possibly some of the best horror film bits that I have seen... ever. The last 1/3 however... The movie seems to tack on inconsistent Hollywood themes as well as HORRIBLY written exposition. Considering how great the beginning of the movie was, the end was just... Terrible to take. I give it 2.5 stars, but only because the beginning was incredible. Otherwise, it would barely even get 1.

3. Borderland


Wow. Seriously. Wow. I am actually going to add this to the "Incredibly Gory F*cked Up Movies" thread. Borderland is slow-going at first because it did not fit in with the previous two frenetic monster movies. It is the branch of horror that treads the waters of investigative noir with some elements of torture porn and revenge. I honestly recommend this film. Just keep in mind: It starts slow with an increeeeeeeeeeedibly cliched set up: But, oh, it gets good. REALLY good. I give it 4.5 out of 5.


WOW this is a long post. I think it's sleep time for me.

Are these out for RENT?

Triple post... sorry. But yeah..... Dark Ride was ok but it ticked me off. IMO they showed the killer too much and it ruined the "where is he?" aspect. It could have been outstanding.
