Yes, he's...just not good. But some of his stuff is good, oh so mindless fun.

I liked xxx because it was a kickass, high octane action flick, with a story. It actually had a decent plot.

OK, so I have just wrapped up the final 2 films for the 8 Films to Die for HORRORFEST.

And what I have to say is WOW and WOW... But for two different reasons...


Nightmare Man



There's B-Grade horror and then there's b-grade horror. This film is about a woman who receives a creepy mask and then thinks she's haunted by the Nightmare man, a demon that comes to her in her dreams... And then it comes to her reality...

I honestly have no issue with monster/slasher films, but the production value of this film was so incredibly low that everyone in the theater couldn't help but give way to laughter. The demon's mask was absolutely pathetic, and attempts to catch the victim were just... poorly choreographed... The dialogue was stereotypically bad, but not so bad as to be self-conscious parody... Just an all around bad movie. As in, I want that hour and a half back. WOW. D-


Crazy Eights



Session 9 meets The Grudge. In a good way.

A ghost story involving 7 old friends, an old found box, and an old building. The present is confronted by the mistakes and shortfalls of the past. Definitely not a novel concept, but the execution was so incredibly clean that it left me digging my nails into my poor boyfriend's hand throughout the entire film. Crazy Eights takes a similar setting as Session 9 with the cast dealing with ghosts of their past (both metaphorical and literal) and couples it with the slow, methodical, hauntingly creepy suspenseful direction similar to Takashi Shimizu and other Japanese directors (the ghost aspect also follows similar themes). The writing and acting were incredibly vivid and captivating.

This was definitely the scariest film of the entire festival and a must-see for horror fans. A/A+

WOW. Great way to end a horror-fest weekend!

Spoorloos (a.k.a. The Vanishing) (1988)

Mesmorizing. Really, truly remarkable and original, and chilling to boot.

absolutely.
i love this film. it really is terrifying the way it forces you to feel connected to the killer rather than the "hero."

i just watched inland empire for the second time.
all i have to say is that i don't understand how david lynch so flawlessly translates nightmares into film. there are two scenes in particular that make me feel so on edge, so uncomfortable that i feel like i need to leave the room.
great stuff.
