The Omen (2006) - I was pleasantly surprised by this one. I think it was pointless to remake the original, but they did a pretty decent job.
An American Haunting - I had heard nothing but bad things about this one, but I really liked it. The only things I didn't much care for were the modern-day storyline that bookends the movie and the "why did they have to go there?" twist. I don't know much about the true events of The Bell Witch so maybe there's something to it, but I thought that was a weak cop-out. |
The Omen series seems to be quite a popular choice lately.
Omen III: The Final Conflict Pretty good. Nowhere near as awesome as the first, but a bit better tha #2. Sam Neill did an amazing job...I still say this guy needs to do more horror. One thing that bugged me though: **Spoilers** The ending. It was a pretty good way to end it, but it just made Damien seem like a complete moron. He can recite like half the bible from memory, yet he didnt know that passage that comes on screen at the end? About Christ returning "not as a child, but now as King of Kings". Cool ending, but that parts was pretty dumb IMO. |
Devils Rejects.
First time I'd seen it. I didn't like HO1KC much at all...so I was pretty apprehensive about this "sequel", but hey, it was on weekly hire, and I'd heard it was somewhat better than the first (IMO - Not as though that would be too hard) from a few people. While I found it more watchable than the first one, I still found the characters stupid, annoying, and over the top. The "rescue" I saw coming a mile off. Overall not bad, at least this one made me laugh a few times...but, wasn't overly impressed by either of these films. |

Die Hard
One of the greatest action flicks ever made. "Yipee-kay-aya, motherfucker!" |
All the Die Hard movies are great:)

zombie honeymoon, fragile and pan's labyrinth.
the last two were very beautifully done movies and highly recommended. i know pan's labyrinth may still not be out over there, but fragile is on dvd. |
Just saw "This Film is not Yet Rated" last night. It's a documentary about the MPAA film ratings process. Definitely interesting, and sheds some needed light on the uber-secretive ratings board, though it has some weak points.
Still, this movie would probably interest a lot of horror fans, since horror tends to get treated a bit unevenly in ratings. Sam |

I just saw "Fun With Dick & Jane" last night, and must I say that it wasn't funny, except for a couple of minor parts. Though it isn't Horror, I just felt like telling you all.
Rating: 4.0/10 |
American Haunting - unrated....really a big dissappointment there. If you loved it, great, not trying to be difficult, but I really thought it was poorly acted on top of boring crap.:(

shortened releases are sometimes better, Creepers is a way better cut than Phenomena. Funny how he's said he hates actors in a few interviews.... actors must hate him for his horrible dialogue direction. |

doesnt hold a candle to Hardware (few movies do)- but still a good movie. |
Hardware? Is that the futuristic one where a terminator type robot put itself back together? I can't really remember it, butI do remember liking it....came out at roughly the same time as freejack and circuitry man, no? Other decent looking scifi films I cant remember...
Whats this latest one to do with hardware? |
Slither
