The Forest (2016)
Japan's Aokigahara "Suicide Forest" by itself is a creepy and gruesome place because of its reputation as one of the most notorious suicide spots in the world as well as its historic association with demons in Japanese mythology. Its inherently scary atmosphere is perfect for a good horror movie, but The Forest mostly squanders its promise by degrading it to a hot spot for cheap jump scares. The Forest stars Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer in a dual role as twins Jess and Sara. Jess has disappeared into the forest, and Sara travels to Japan to go into the forest to look for her, unaware of the demons that lurk in the forest. The film has a pretty interesting premise and could have worked if executed correctly. 2014's As Above, So Below took an intrinsically creepy setting, the Paris catacombs, and used an unsettling atmosphere and good scares to make one of the better horror films of that year. The Forest does not use its setting to its advantage. Any atmosphere created by the forest is frittered away by a dull jump scare. Despite all the loud noises and sudden shocks, the scares are just boring. That could have been helped by a good story, but once Sara actually reaches the forest, the plot just sort of stops. The last half of the movie is just her running through the forest while demons pop out from behind the trees. It's not until the end that the plot decides to move forward any more, but by the time the big twist happens, you don't really care. The Forest has a committed performance from Natalie Dormer and glimmers of an interesting movie but mostly wastes them on predictable jump scares and a bland story. 4/10

Last Girl 2013, 4/10.
 People are making a movie. They make this guy carry the FF camera and film them torturing a call girl that he had visited or they will kill his wife. A lot of cool things were implied, like a beheading and a corpse fucking or a skull fuck but were never shown, just after the fact. No nudity at all. Dark and shaky cam most of the time. The set location was cool. An never ending abandon building with cool rooms and hallways. That captured my 4 rating.

Billy Club, 2013. 8/10
 This was utterly fantastic! I waited too long too see this. Well fuck me. The gory parts were awesome for sure. I just realized that this has a connection to Blood Junkie, one of my favorite films, no wonder. One of the directors of this film starred in Blood Junkie and the other directed it! I kept picking this film up at Disc Replay every time I'd visit. I'd put it down though. Fuck, always go with your gut instinct. ; ) Maybe its still there...
