I watched House of 1,000 Corpses on Friday night with a big group of friends. That movie is always really fun to watch in a group, especially when you're all fans of it and you all end up quoting the film the entire way though.

... The Place Beyond the Pines (2012)  Interesting enough character piece though I feel as though I should have liked it more than I did, considering that the cast was brilliant and I really like that director... Could have been the mood that I was in but I found it a little drab. Oddly enough, I loved Blue Valentine - Could be that I just identified with the characters more there than I did in Pines - It gets a lot of good press and I get why, but was just flat for me. ... Spring Breakers (2012)  I was really impressed by this - Definitely captures the disturbing vision of bourgeois ennui that sets off a series of violent events - Paralled to the glut of Spring Break - I found it disturbing and fascinating. Not for everyone, but I loved this movie and really want to see it again. ... You're Next (2011)  Really good, solid horror. Great writing - Funny dialogue and gags that were well-timed and played, this movie is not just another home invasion flick. A lot of fun to watch. I want to see it again because I sat next to people who talked through the whole time... Which is unfortunately why I don't go to the movies very much anymore. Recommended. ... The World's End (2013)  Absolute and total blast. I love these guys. Wanted to rewatch it immediately (and am considering cutting out of work to go see it again now... hmmmm....). Recommended. ... Stoker (2013)  Subtle, slow-burning creepy brilliance. One of the best films of 2013. HIGHLY recommended.

Vacancy 2 -
I knew the first one wasn't that good. But it had Kate Beckinsale. This one has Agnes Bruckner so I decided to give it a watch. She's been in a few horror movies. I thought the opening twist was pretty good. But then it goes downhill for some of the most boring dialog I've heard in a while. Maybe the actors were just too generic. Or maybe they were supposed to be that way. Whatever the case, it's here that once again we see why prequel or origin stories in horror movies don't work. After the boring stuff it's by the numbers modern horror complete with the annoying character. Usually a Black or Asian guy. This time it's a Black guy. But the annoying Asian was in the opening so they didn't miss that cliche anyway. I guess because Agnes Bruckner was in horror movies before she gets the strongest role. So if you want to see this for her. I guess it's somewhat passable. If not then avoid this one. It even has one of the worst final shots I've ever seen in a movie. A crappy spinning shot.

State of Emergency (2011)
 >>: C+ V/H/S/2 (2013)  As an anthology for found-footage genre, liked its predecessor, thought it was quite decent also. Enjoyed mostly the frame story (Tape 49) & the Asian segment Safe Haven. >>: B+

"Footsteps" sounds good. The rest of his movies are martial arts flicks.
