Freddy vs Jason.

I never watched the whole movie before. I usually caught a few clips on TV. I always avoided this movie for the most part. I thought the idea was stupid. Who really wanted to see Freddy fight Jason? But I decided to finally watch the movie. The opening Crystal Lake scene starts off well and I had high (those who know the scene will get this) hopes. But somehow the movie turns mediocre. The movie has only one maybe two good kills. We don't get a good Friday the 13th or Nightmare on Elm Street movie. We get a bunch of characters telling stories and miraculously placing the pieces together. One of the best lines is from the companion girlfriend who can't believe they are taking Jason with them. Something that happened again for some reason in the Friday the 13th reboot. In the end, this is yet another sad entry to the Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street series. I assume that these are dead for the most part after the two crap remakes.

On the plus side, I spotted Evangeline Lilly in the background at the school scene. She's the prettiest girl in the whole movie and was only in it for a few seconds.

Pretty decent explanation as to why Freddy and Jason would be in a film together but yeah, otherwise pretty mediocre film.

Halloween Night (2006)- Terrible. Ended up shutting it off.

Shrooms- Terrible.

Episode 50- Terrible.

Gingerdead Man 3: Saturday Night Cleaver- Terrible. I thought this one would at least be funny to watch but it wasn't. Ended up shutting it off.

Also, I really hate when movies have awesome cover art but then the movie is awful.

Yeah, I was hoping for something really great with Shrooms but if fell way short. Too bad, could have been a clever idea.

That's what I thought, too. It was a good idea and they could have done so much with it. They just didn't hit the mark.

oh, and i'm enjoying it so much about stephen king's stories, how the pastor turns out to be werewolf, and religion turns perfectly normal people into the bunch of sheep=)
Um what? There's no werewolves in The Mist.

There's a preacher werewolf in Silver Bullet/Cycle of The Werewolf though.

Well the way you wrote it was confusing. One second you were talking about The Mist and then you were talking about Werewolf preachers. It didnt make any sense

Snow White and The Huntsman


I was really expecting more from this but it was really mediocre. The fight scenes were badly choreographed and the uplifting speech that Snow gives near the end was terrible. The whole story just felt rushed as well.

I don't know if i'm just becoming jaded now but movies really fail to excite me and blow me away nowadays.

How did it look? From the trailer it looks like it'd at least be gorgeously filmed.
