Mountain Top Motel Massacre
I was in the mood for an old skool 80's slasher and picked up the first I could find in my crate of new movies. MTMM lol well, it does exactly what it says on the tin. It's your typical drive in slasher movie - nothing new...some decent gore...but nothing new.
Fun...6/10
Dead Calm
What more can I say about this classic thriller that hasn't already been said? Good Suspense, excellent acting performances and your classic thrilling 'he's not dead yet' endings!!! class
8/10
Exquisite Tenderness
Like so many overly done horror movies set in a psycho hospital I tentatively placed this into my DVD player. The film stars Malcom (clockwork Orange) McDowell which is what grabbed my immidiate attention...ok so, the movie is successfully creepy, it has some fantastic kills....
SPOILER (check out the syringe in the eye - woohoo)
But - it does have major lulls in the film where nothing much happens but that aside I found it an entertaining ride and being a sucker for 'good deaths' I gotta give this
7/10
Suspicious River
Another from the bottom of my 'new movies to watch' crate - this was originally purchased for £2 from a Music Zone 'bargain bucket'. To be honest I could have left it there as I wouldnt have missed too much. The story has been done to death (bored housewife seeks extra marital attention, goes working in a motel doubling up as a lady of the night for certain customers) Obviously she comes unstuck (excuse the potential pun) when she is brutally attacked and raped by one of the motel guests. Here is where I expected the deranged woman hellbent on revenge - alas no (there are no I spit on Your grave revenge killings) it just meanders on into her dull everyday existence - making what was a very slow paced drama...into a longer slower paced drama.
Suspicious River, nothing new, great or even exciting - just a dull drama with a bit of sex.
5/10
Don't go Into the Attic (Devils Harvest)
This low budget ghost/satanic flick although slow in parts was not too bad at all. Creepy in parts this is by no way a scary film more of a slow Sunday afternoon creep flick lol.
Not great but not terrible either
6/10
