| I just watched Pulse, and it was a let-down to be honest.
It's a ghost story, but it makes no sense at all, and it's not very
athmospheric. It's not scary, it's not bloody, it's not entertaining.

I haven't seen the Hollywood version but the Japanese version is slow
paced. The Wikipedia has a good explanation for what it's all about.

It was not obvious to me at first but a day or two later it started to
sink in. I'll say it's not the greatest horror movie, it wasn't easily
understood. I still question it.

I'll admit I was at first disapointed with "Kairo" but the more I
thought about it the more I liked it. It isn't for everyone and it
doesn't have edge of the seat action and that throws some people off. I
refer to it as a slow burner. I let a friend borrow it and he didn't
finish it. He got about an hour in then quit.

review 11:11 the gate - so yesterday I watched 11:11. Its starts out pretty cool, and spooky.... the ending was a bit lame, and the actress who plays the main character looks like she's about to burst out crying any second, all the time, which I felt was pretty annoying. BUT,...
review satanic - So I watched 'satanic' last night. It's a B-movie, with a nice plot, not too scary though. It's about a girl who is in an accident, and her face has to be re-structured so to speak, and then she starts seeing things... She is actually seeing her dead..
Review 'Fragile' - Just watched Fragile, with Calista Flockheart. First, I must say that Calista is showing us she is capable of much MORE than being Ally McBeal, because her acting is just GREAT! And no, I am *not* a fan. She portrays her character with a lot of..
review TRIBULATION - definitely a B movie, but entertaining nevertheless. Not very scary. It's about a guy who has an accident and gets outof coma 10 years later only to find out the antichrist has taken over the world. If you can find it for cheap, go see. If not, no.. |
