Marianne agrees, but no sooner have the mysterious Worms left than things take an inexplicable turn for the worse. The two children appear to be behaving very oddly, Marianne is cautioned for shop-lifting, and Jacques has a nervous breakdown at office...and there is worse to come.

A bit weird & atmospheric French Horror, not bad.

>>: B-

Sounds interesting, will have to track it down, after I finish watching Martyrs.

Run Lola Run (1998).This one is all about decisions and consequences. A fast paced, MTVesque thriller that uses every trick in the book to tell a 20 minute story in about an hour and a half. And it does so with authority. Run Lola Run is a brilliant little gem that continually threatens to run foul yet stays its course. As per the title, there is a whole lot of running involved, but this is handled effectively and does not become tiresome. That Lola is a treat to watch running is pleasant in and of itself. The story itself was simple yet convoluted. The acting was solid. The editing was courageous and the direction was great. Overall a great watch. Ashe.

That was actually a good movie, there was talk for a while of making an American remake, I am glad that never happened!

Jennifer's Body (2009)

Okay...I liked this. More than Juno, for sure. Diablo Cody's hyper-pop dialogue is only tolerable in a movie like this, something totally tongue-in-cheek. This was definitely a goofy homage to 70s & 80s gorefests like The Evil Dead and so on, and I really enjoyed it as that. She needs to either keep making movies like this, where everything is exaggerated along with her pop-lingo and quick-witted characters, or drop that schtick entirely.

The Strangers

This was initially promising,the build up of tension was well executed,but the final third lacked impact.

6/10

My Name Is Bruce: First watch. Pretty much what I expected, hoped for more but can't say I was expecting a classic so not really disappointed.
