Frailty

5/5 Frailty is easily one of my top 30 favourite films of all time, make no mistake I love this film. I decided to re-watch this for October the horror month as I actually haven’t re-watched this for a few years and I thought it was about time I visited one of my favourites again. … Continue reading →

[Review Rewind] Black Christmas (1974)

[Review Rewind] Black Christmas (1974)

A sorority house is terrorised by scary phone calls over the Christmas break. At first they don’t think much of it, but then things start to get really frightening when one of them goes missing and then a body is discovered in the woods near by. Slowly the police begin to put the pieces together, … Continue reading →

Triangle

3/5 Triangle is an interesting film, going into this it wasn’t anything like I was expecting, so I was some what surprised. However 25 minutes in I thought to myself ‘I know exactly what is going on’ and I spent the rest of the film being proven correct. This is a film where you shouldn’t … Continue reading →

The Ugly

4.5/5 When I watch a film for the first time, not knowing what to expect, the thing I really want the most is to be surprised and discover something fantastic. This is what happened when I watched The Ugly, what a gem this turned out to be. This is a strange one film, it is … Continue reading →

Love Comes To The Executioner

3.5/5 This is one strange film, there is no other way to put it. This is a dark, quirky comedy, mostly set inside death row in prison. Not really the type of setting you’d expect from a comedy, but this is a black one. Basically a young man named Heck (Jonathan Tucker) has just graduated … Continue reading →

Eden Lake

3/5 The first thing which comes to mind about this film is, extremely annoying. I don’t think I have felt this annoyed by a film since the remake of Funny Games. Both for pretty much the same reasons, and I will explain why in this review. But first off I will tell you what this … Continue reading →

I Love You Phillip Morris

3/5 This is one awfully strange film, and it took me sometime to think about how I felt. I think the advertisements for this have been very wrong, yes on the surface it is a lover story, but deep down it is about a disturbed man. Jim Carrey plays Steven Russell, he is a local … Continue reading →

A Little Trip To Heaven

3/5 A Little Trip To Heaven is an odd film to say the least, but an interesting one all the same. The film is about insurance, we meet an insurance investigator Abe Holt (Forest Whitaker with an odd accent), who gets sent in to investigate a car accident. We see the actual accident was not … Continue reading →

[Review] 12 And Holding (2005)

[Review] 12 And Holding (2005)

12 And Holding is not an easy film to sit through, it actually is quite disturbing at times. The film is about 12 year old kids, and the events which change their lives. Jacob’s twin brother Rudy (Both played by Conor Donovan) dies in a fire which ends up being a prank gone wrong by … Continue reading →

S.W.A.T.

3/5 I first saw this film upon it’s initial cinema release in 2003 (I mainly wanted to see it for Colin Farrell), and back then I wasn’t a huge fan of the film. I had not seen it since then, and now seven years later I have to admit I like it a lot more … Continue reading →

The Crazies (2010)

3/5 Another horror remake, which is the trend in this day and age, however The Crazies is actually pretty decent. I have not seen Romero’s original film, so I cannot compare the two films. I was really looking forward to this film, the trailers were solid and the reviews were a mixed bag. I love … Continue reading →

From Paris With Love

3/5 Straight and simple, this is a fun film. I actually wasn’t really interested in what it was about, once it really got going (basically when John Travolta showed up) it was mostly one fun ride. Not usually like me to not care about the actual story, but a film like this that isn’t the … Continue reading →

The Losers

2.5/5 I will be quite frank to start off this review, I didn’t get into this film, I did actually close my eyes a few times. Unfortunately I found this to just not be all that interesting, and I was a little bored at times. I was actually excited to see this, it had an … Continue reading →

Killers

2.5/5 Killer’s is about a woman Jen (Katherine Heigl), who after a break up goes on a vacation with her parents (Catherine O’Hara and Tom Selleck). Whilst on said vacation she meets mysterious Spencer (Ashton Kutcher), he seems to be an agent working for the CIA maybe? She doesn’t know that, and after spending time … Continue reading →
