7.5/10 I've actually like this. Did not expect much, but the atmosphere felt really similar to the trilogy. I think Wes would have been proud. The only bad part for me is that they announced another one.  5/10 Pointless. Except a few slashes, might be the worst from the saga. Did not bring anything new to the table, no even an Idea of a conclusion. |
Pieces of April 2003
A young woman decides to have her estranged family for thanksgiving dinner when she finds out her mother is terminally ill. I enjoyed it. |
RAGNAROK (2014). Norwegen archaeologist after failing to get grant money for continuing his late wife's work goes to an island with a friend, his children and another archaeologist after friend finds some ancient runes. They find more runes and many artifacts, but there is something else nearby .....
Pretty good film and pretty suspenseful after a time >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>POSSIBLE SPOILER>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >> with amazing photography. Even if a somewhat GORGO-ish lift happens towards the end. *** |

CREATURE FEATURE: 60 YEARS OF THE GILLMAN (2015). Decent doc of THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON and its two sequels. Although there isn't a lot more info to be gleaned-if You've watched the Special Features on the DVD, You gotten the history behind them all- , the "Fan-ness" of this makes it worth Your time. Some truly obsessive fans out there with neat collections and even a convention in Florida where the underwater scenes were filmed. Liked how Millicent Patrick, the Disney animator and primary sketch artist for the Creature's "look", is given more appreciation here; it's rotten how a jealous Bud Westmore took all the credit.
Interviews with Ricou Browning (the Creature underwater), the late Julie Adams (Kay) and the late Ben Chapman (Creature on land) are also fun. The latter two come off as very nice and in my experience with them, I can concur. Julie's website was one of the very first I ordered merchandise from; misunderstood the P/H rates and sent more. She mailed Me my picture along with my change, which she didn't have to do. As for Ben , I ordered twice for his site; quick delivery and little extras thrown in. At my first MONSTER BASH (6/2007), was planning to meet him after Elvira (third in line);sadly, She took her sweet time getting on the "Gear" and getting out there. Ben had taken sick in the meantime, going back to his room to rest and sadly passed away a few months later::sad::. *** |

BEFORE THE DEVIL KNOWS YOU'RE DEAD (2007)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SPOILERS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> > First rate performances by the late Philip Seymour Hoffmann (some eerie parallels concerning his character's recreation habits), Ethan Hawke, Marisa Tomei and Albert Finney. Two brothers are in deep financial straights and one comes up with an idea to improve this; mainly by robbing a "Mom and Pop" jewelry store which happens to belong to their Mom and Pop! It seems like a fool proof plan where no one will get hurt, but of course, Murphy's Law is in full effect and things continue to go downhill. Really enjoy this...suspenseful as Hell and Marisa is stunningly beautiful, albeit fragile. If nothing else, the very first scene is very much an eyeopener! **** |

Agatha Christie's Crooked House (2017) netflix
7/10 Mystery, 'who done it'. Mildly entertaining. Smoothly paced, nicely shot, lively acting. I guessed the murderer, it added up, but it's really more of the anyone could have done it till the last scene. I prefer a 'who done it' that eliminates suspects, and points to others, along the way. |
