Interesting fable, resembling Dragonheart a bit. If only the lead didn't stand so gawky in every frame he was in.
Robert Carlyle and John Malkovich look terribly out of place.
Maybe role-reversals between John & Jeremy Irons could have made this a bit more interesting.

Male re-telling of The Craft, which I think is a much superior film. That being said, this one has it's moments.
Lack of character development (except the leads) affects this badly, as does the overdose of CGI.
One wonderful scene of a car smashing into a truck stands out.
Laura is a hottie.

IMO preferable to Hot Fuzz, doesn't quite live up to Shaun (what does?).
Fans of the Wright/Pegg/Frost productions won't be disappointed.
Loved it, had some deep elements that were easy to overlook if you wanted to just have fun. Buddy thought it was the best of the 3, wife thought it was better than Shaun and right up there with Hot Fuzz, and I share your opinion on the matter.

Tonight's veiwing. 'The Rite'. Which is a movie about exorcism.. I would give it 3. It was a pretty good movie and starred Anthony Hopkins which is usually a good thing in my experience. I would definitely recommend this one to people.

The second movie I watched tonight was 'The Devil Inside'. Another movie about exorcism. This movie was .. horrendous. I was frightened by how crap the acting was. I think you could save yourself $7.99 and just watch the trailer on youtube which displays the only scary (slightly scary) part of the movie. I give this movie a 1. I wouldn't recommend watching this movie.

A bit of a binge this week;

Lords of Salem - Not bad, but imo definitely the weakest of Rob Zombie's output so far. I love his other films but this is one I'm not fussed about seeing again.

The Cabin in the Woods - I was expecting just another modern slasher flick, so was pleasantly surprised to be, er, surprised. Quite an enjoyable watch.

Evil Dead (2013) - No surprises but overall a pretty good film I thought.

The 7th Hunt - A good plot and some enjoyable moments but, while I really to hate knock an indie flick, the acting and dialogue are pretty awful. And not even in a good way.

Eden Lake - Loved it. Picks up the pace quickly and avoids every possibilty of a happy outcome. Bleak and brutal Brit horror at its best, one of those films that left me rather silent through the credits and with an acute need to watch something with lots of fluffy bunnies in it.

It's In The Blood (2012) - A quintessential Lance Henriksen film: spooky environment, disturbing undead sh*t, and lots of drinking. Recommended.

"The Conjuring" 8/10


Not too many original scares, but can't complain too much as it was a well made movie in my favorite horror genre.

Dead Silence and Insidious are still Wan's best movies, imo.

Watched "V.H.S 2" last night On Demand. WOW! It was freaky good. Loved he original but this kind of blew it away. Found it very creative in the use of camera work and picture quality. I mean it's called VHS but who the hell wants to watch grainy camera footage.

One story had a guy with a prosthetic eye with a camera in it to give him sight cause he lost his eye in a car accident and he saw everything in HD....story was he was seeing ghosts, but it was HD.

Another one was a first-person zombie story from the zombie's perspective. Dude is mountain biking in the woods with a helmet camera and he gets turned into a zombie.

Another was a Jim Jones story with a camera crew inside the compound...that one was freaky as hell and pretty disturbing.

The final was an alien story, this didn't get the HD treatment but the SFX were pretty wild.

Watched the 2005 Amityville remake last night. Made me jump a couple of times but other than that it left me unimpressed.

Just watched Piranha with Elisabeth Shue. Not a bad movie, it was much better than I expected it to be. Had some campiness to it, but also a lot of action and, of course, it was a major boobfest. I just don't know how Shue manages to get sexier as she advances in age! She was in her late 40s when she made this movie and now at age 50, Shue is still a hottie!! WOW ;)

The Haunted Dollhouse, which i learned was just clips from actual horror movies, though Worrydolls intrigued me. Plus i'm not ever getting a worrydoll.
