Definitely. It has a super hot female lead (makes for mouth-watering viewing ;) ), and a decent plot. The kill sequences arent great IMO, but not bad either.

Dont expect a Argento/Bava-esque atmosphere, and you will enjoy it.

Demon Knight was the best of the lot. I was rather disappointed with Bordello, and Ritual proved to be even more disappointing. Skip it if you dont have to watch it, Des.

Fool's Gold.

Could have been better, instead of following in the footsteps of Indy and POTC. Decent watch though.

Rating - ***


Death At A Funeral.

And this was supposed to be funny...how? A stale attempt at crude and bawdy humor, but falls considerably short of eliciting laughs. Eminently forgettable, but has its moments.

House of Wax (1953)

Besides Price's performance, mostly everything in this movie is actually second rate when compared to its 1933 predecessor, Mystery of the Wax Museum. It does boast some genuine thrills, though, and has some truly fun sideshow horror effects.

A History of Violence

I first went to see this at the movies when it came out with my brothers but they thought it was boring (we only stayed for the first ten minutes.) so we left and went to see Into the Blue. (OMFG horrible decision.)

So anyways I watched this again finally and boy is it amazing. I love the way it just comes out of no where and Viggo Mortensen just starts killing these people and stuff. Plus seeing Maria Bello's bush is well worth it. :)


8.5/10

The Eye [remake] ....why bother to remake a movie if your not gonna add anything new to give it a different edge.....don't bother...rent the original.

U23D---If you like U2 go see this if you can.

The Deaths of Ian Stone.

Starts off with an interesting concept of a guy being murdered each day and then waking up in a different life. Of course it's just Groundhog Day remade as a horror movie, but it sounded promising. Then you find out what's really going on and it's a steep, slippery slope of cheese. It's rather weak as far as the gore goes, the effects otherwise are pretty cool, and the acting is mediocre at best. I guess it's alright as a rental, but maybe only if someone else is paying for it. :p
