[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula (1979)

[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula (1979)

“Dracula (1979)” While like Glenn Beck, I don’t have any actual substantive evidence to prove this, in 1979, Frank Langella fathered many children and didn’t even know it because of his role in this movie. I’m not going to waste time by bitching about how inaccurate this film is, partly because it has the same … Continue reading

[Bea’s Reviews] Nosferatu The Vampyre (1979)

“Nosferatu The Vampyre (1979)” While ostensibly a remake, Werner Herzog’s ‘Nosferatu The Vampyre’ is actually an art form masquerading as a horror. True, there is a sense of true dread permeating in every frame, but it’s not so much dread of a superficial movie sense, instead, it’s a dread that strikes close to home for … Continue reading

[Review] The Great Gatsby (2013)

[Review] The Great Gatsby (2013)

I do enjoy Baz Luhrmann’s offerings, he is a filmmaker who certainly defies convention and he definitely has his own style. It was not surprising to me when it was announced he would be adapting The Great Gatsby, the famous 1925 novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald. From what I understood about the piece, it felt … Continue reading

[Review] American Mary (2012)

[Review] American Mary (2012)

American Mary has been on my radar for quite some time, not sure what took me so long to see it, on paper it screamed my name. I did my best to ignore the hype around the film, as I prefer just to go in and enjoy the film with a fresh mind. As I … Continue reading

[Review] The Place Beyond The Pines

[Review] The Place Beyond The Pines

In 2011 Derek Cianfrance won me over with his polarising film Blue Valentine. Once I saw that film, I wasn’t able to stop thinking about it for some time afterwards. The performances were simply amazing and I felt Cianfrance achieved something so raw with his direction. I named him my personal favourite director of that … Continue reading

[Bea’s Reviews] Lake Mungo (2008)

[Bea’s Reviews] Lake Mungo (2008)

“Lake Mungo (2008)” First and foremost, if you consider yourself a ‘true blue’ horror fan, turn away now, because the marketing of this movie was hideously misleading. The international trailer promised thrills and chills, but I assure you, this film native to my country is nothing of the sort. This is a ghost story, but … Continue reading

[Bea’s Reviews] Satanic Rites Of Dracula (1973)

[Bea’s Reviews] Satanic Rites Of Dracula (1973)

“Satanic Rites Of Dracula (1973)” You will either find “The Satanic Rites of Dracula” extremely awesome or extremely idiotic simply because of how… inventive it is. Rather of Dracula simply being content to hunt down quivering virgins (yeah, tough luck of that happening in the 70’s), the Count’s ambitions actually soar a lot higher than … Continue reading

[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula AD (1972)

[Bea’s Reviews] Dracula AD (1972)

“Dracula AD (1970)” OH THE PAIN, THE PAIN! The quote so famously bellowed by Doctor Smith from “Lost In Space” in the title should give enough indication that sitting through this movie without a braced mind is enough to give any self-respecting film lover a migraine. What could have been a novel concept was quickly … Continue reading
