Saw VI - They didn't try for too many extreme twists or out-gore their previous efforts but instead made a flick that moved the overall story forward (albeit a bit slowly through a few too many flashbacks). I'm surprised that Saw has reached number VI without becoming a terrible franchise and there's real consistency in the quality of the films (although the 1st still stands tall as the best). I enjoyed it and will be happy to go next year around Halloween.
Rocky Horror Picture Show - Just washed the V off... hell of a show. The Tickled Fancy Burlesque Co. was there and did a pre-show as well as a stage show during the film dressed as characters.

The Abandoned (2006). A suprnatural horror flick with an amazing score and lots of disturbing imagery, but little more. Many people really seamed to have loved this one, and i could see why. My main disappointemnt was that this flick could have been so much more. First, we have rare a mid-forties lead actress in a horror film. There were so many ways that her character could have been developed, but instead she remains flat, leaving the viewer without any empathic ties. The story itself was also fresh. But instead of developing it with actual storytelling, this film falls back on disturbing imagery and again that wonderful score. While it is definitely worth a watch, so much more could have done to make this decent flick a great one. Ashe.

Fairly standard stuff but there are some decent, atmospheric moments. My wife thought it was 'scary as hell' but she doesnt watch that many films. Its OK
