American Grindhouse
I'm hardly an authority on the topic but I found this weak and lacking depth. Disappointing and nothing even someone with even a casual interest in film hasn't heard a million times before.

I just watched the original Friday The 13th, and you know what disturbed me? They legit killed that snake with a machete.
No way they could do that today, yet, there it was in the movie I got from NetFlix, cut that thing in half. That actually pissed me off, although when I first saw the film I doubt I cared. Funny what age does to perception I guess.

Oh and have to guiltily admit to watching Eclipse at the weekend-but that was for a date and not my suggestion-so I think It was justified. My God the Wolf is sexy :D

I haven't seen Men Behind The Sun. I guess as a horror fan I should. I have seen Cannibal Holocaust and the animal killing was bad.
I just don't see the senseless killing of animals. Food is one thing. Botching a take and needing to do it again is another.

Think we need to bring this back to the thread!:D Oh and I know the Cat scene is bad, but men behind the Sun made me cry-the scene with the little mute boy was heart wrenching. You need to check out the thread about this on here its interesting.

Trees: The Movie
A cheap as chips horror comedy that wasn't funny or tense in the slightest. They'd basically copied everything from Jaws and replaced the shark with a killer pine tree. You read that right......................a killer pine tree. I had seen a brief synopsis before watching so I knew what I was letting myself in for, a kind of celluloid self harm. It definitely goes in the 'its so bad its bloody awful' category.

The Crazies (2010). This wonderful little horror entry shows that a good script and great film making can trump originality. While Romero still gets kudos for creating the era, films such as this are still able to drive it forward. Of course, the solid cast added tremendously to its success, with Timothy Olyphant and Radha Mitchel deserving the top billing. Their chemistry takes away any guilt when our prayers are answered by predictable outcomes. The supporting cast was solid as well, with a surprising performance by Danielle Panabaker and with Joe Anderson deservingly threatening to steal the Show. The direction was more than competent, and the camera work took full advantage of the vast landscape in contrast to some of the more claustrophobic scenes. Overall this was one of those rare remakes that outshone its predecessor. Merci beaucoup.

Batman: Under the Red Hood (2010)
 We were only familiar with Batman here mostly by that 60's TV series, some irregular TV cartoons/animated series and with a very few numbered translated issues of comic book scripts. So basically we were highly unaware about the vast universe of DC Comics, Marvel & their popular iconic superheroes, specially about their major epic stories & challenges as well as legacy in your popular comic book culture. But after seeing different film adaptations, some of the ardent or "original" fans here like me tried to know more about their history on the web/by the grace of internet...cause still the foreign comic books aren't available in the stores here (most probably they aren't confident enough for the market here as it'd put a high cost & price issue that matters finally). Anyway, I highly enjoyed the main drama/crisis in this new animated film which is based on 2 significant & popular storyline of Batman comic book series which I came to know about from wikipedia. I wish if I could have read them in my school days.. :( >>: A-

Taxidermia and Sleepaway Camp The Return
Taxidermia(2007)-As horrors fans, try this movie out if can. Its a complete mindf**k of a movie. Its a combination of Peter Greenaway,Tarantino and Lars von Trier. The movie is not a horror film in the tradional sense, basically its the story 3 related men and their lives. It is very funny, extremely dark, and grotesque/nauseating. Theres a lot of blood and other bodily fluids. Its deals with bestiality, eating contests, necrophilia, taxidermy (of course), hints at pedophilia.
Oh, one of them can shoot flames out of dick(I swear Im not lying) If you have seen this flik could you tell me what you thought. I would like read your thoughts. Sleepaway Camp The Return- Angelas back and nutty as ever. Vincent Pastore is in it(?):eek:
