American Hustle
This had a great cast which saved it's fairly tired storyline. Entertaining stuff.

The Piano Teacher--would've liked it if this film was a little more noir, but that's just me.
Hansel and Gretel Get Baked--Yeah, not much to say about this one. But still, what's with the recent flood of all the Hansel and Gretel "horror" movies lately? I've only seen two so far, but I do know of a few others that were released roughly around the same time. Can't we ever have a "classic" movie version of a fairy-tale instead of all the useless, modern retooling? I mean, from the little I know about Hans Christian Anderson and the Brothers Grimm, the original stories are far richer and much scarier than the remakes. But again, that's just me, lol.

Day of the Dead (Remake) - SLIGHT SPOILERS
I should have looked into this one more. I still haven't seen the original and I thought this was a sequel to the Dawn of the Dead remake because of Ving Rhames. The look of the movie is similar but when they didn't start at the end of that movie I knew someone pulled a fast one on me. It's not a good movie. More like a late night time waster. The zombies, if you can call them that, have the trait I've tried to avoid. Namely the zombie that still retains human feelings like in that recent zombie movie that I can't remember the name of. They also have super powers. The only thing the movie got right were the female actresses. Also, the usual token comedy relief Black Guy that is rarely funny actually has a good line or two towards the end. I don't get why movies insist on having this same character in horror movies. This bunch of clips sums up the situation. http://latino-review.com/2012/02/j-a...enre-pictures/ But avoid this one. Venom or Attack of the Voodoo Possessed Tow Truck Driver - Yes that second title is more representative of the movie and it's as bad as it sounds. This is another Agnes Bruckner horror movie which should be good but it isn't. It also has Laura Ramsey who was in The Ruins. We get to see her in a bikini again. Plus Meagan Good, an actress who is always sadly under used. The movie does have a good swamp setting. There are a some creepy shots of swamps and a house deep in the swamp. I've always liked swamps. I remember driving pass them when I was growing up wondering what's out there. The water is always so still with the moss on top. I did an experiment in school once with pond water and once the sand and dirt settled it was full of organisms. A swamp setting should make for a perfect horror movie. There is another one that's supposed to be horrible called "Creature." I want to see that movie for free one day. Venom started off ok for the most part. It could have been worse. But once it became obvious that the movie was going to take the bad horror movie route of monster kills all the kids for no reason that I recall. And the rest of the town's people, cops, etc. would disappear. It was just a matter of waiting for it to end. And they have the nerve to leave it open for a sequel too. Don't bother with this one.
