The Cell

I felt there were some casting issues. Beautiful imagery and an average overall execution. It had my heart beating in some places, soley due to the feeling of a greater presence that I fear in my own dreams. Interesting how they used the "unvoice" that happens in dreams as well in one significant scene with Vince's character. When you scream, and nothing comes out. I noticed some indian-esque influences from the director.

Didn't think it was terrible, or anything all that special... glad I saw it, though.

Masters of Horror: Incident On & Off a Mountain Road - 8/10 - My favorite of the Masters of horror series so far. It is suspenseful, and it's always nice to see a girl fight back against the killer, and not just be another victim. I will probably add this one to my collection.

Masters of Horror: Sick Girl - 7/10 - I enjoyed this movie. Angela Bettis is cute as the lesbian bug expert who falls in love with A free spirited girl played by Erin Brown (A.K.A. Misty Mundae). It's more of a horror comedy, than just horror.

Final Destination 3 - 6.5/10 - You know the plot, group of teens escape death, and death dispatches each survivor in creative ways. I think at this point in the series, we just watch these movies to see how the teens die, don't we? The deaths were well done, especially the tanning booth, and weight rooms ones. Not as good as the second one, but worth a rental.

Masters of Horror: Cigarette Burns - 5.5/10 - My least favorite of the series so far. I just didn't get into the story, and the deaths were ok. Worth a rental, but wait until it goes into the cheap rentals.

Persuasion...IDW comics is also doing a "masters of horror" series. Basically short stories by various authors? Pretty decent series so far...nothing great, just thought you might wanna know about it.

Austin Powers 1 - Seeing this now, I think I liked the second one slightly better...but it's still a decent watch.

Demons 2 - Absolute stupid shit...overkill gore, but a cool soundtrack and scenes that make you laugh...all good.

Wrong Turn

I think I'll always love this movie. Straightforward, no bullshit, intense and gory... Plus it's got a couple of smokin' hot chicks in tight clothes and a deranged killer family of cannibal inbreds... What more can you ask for?

A-



Snakes on a Plane

This is weird but the movie was actually better than I was expecting and because of that, I was let down. I was hoping for some campy, cheesy over the top gore and one liners and what I got was a fairly standard Hollywood horror film with a cool name. It has some funny moments, but there's not much blood or gore at all and altogether too many survivors at the end, but I suppose it was alright....

C+

Truly awful movie about a scientest turning people into King Cobras. Avoid it at all costs.
I remember seeing this one as a youngster - I was up late one night with the flu and it came on TV.

I remember enjoying it - perhaps I was delirious, too young, or both.

Damn, now I want to watch it to see how bad it was :D

final destination 3 and snakes on a plane.

caught these two at a drive-in w/ a couple of friends, so our movie-going experience was enhanced. fd3 was pretty sub-par w/ a couple interesting deaths (the nail gun was my favorite). snakes on a plane was just as i expected: a campy action film about SNAKES ON A PLANE. good times all around.
