Something is out there - running for almost 3 hours, this was broadcasted as a mini series, but luckily the version I got from here can be watched in one go, without any breaks by credits or anything. Two cops are investigating a series of murders where the victims have some of their organs removed. When one of them notices the same blonde woman at every crimescene, he chases her and when he finally meets her he finds out that she has something to do with the murders, just not what he thought before. Interesting story, apart from some lulls (which are almost unavoidable in such a running time imo) the film keeps going on in a nice pace. The effects are adorable, but not good or anything, and the monster is simply great. I loved it! Add to that a typical late 80s atmosphere and I'm sold. So if you plan on watching two movies in a row, you can pick this one as it saves you the trouble of finding out which movie should be first and which second, and if both movies fit together, etc, etc. Take the time and you will be rewarded.

El día de la Bestia - a cool Alex de la Iglesia film with lots of dark humour. I loved it! There were few scenes where I didn't laugh, and it starts out pretty fast: in the opening sequence there is already something funny. The film itself is about a priest who wants to prevent the Antichrist being born, so he joins the satanists in order to make contact with the devil. This with the help of a death metalfan who snorts all sorts of drugs and a TV host who can predict the future, or so he says. The story contains a lot of social criticism and has a message too, but doesn't deliver it in a cheesy way. Very cool, highly recommended!

Red: Werewolf Hunter - wow, this was hollow. A girl (only minor plus in this film: her looks) brings her new bf into her family, but he doesn't know they hunt werewolves. Soon he finds out and they are gonna hunt some more, because a rogue werewolf has broken the truce they had. Superugly cgi wolves and very, very improbable actionscenes (running werewolves who deliberately jump into flying arrows) make this film ridiculous. Predictable ending, too. I'd skip this if I had read a review like this beforehand.

Necronomicon - Jeffrey Combs is H.P. Lovecraft and he is after the Necronomicon. When he finds it, he starts to read, and three tales emerge: The Drowned, The Cold and Whispers. I liked the 3rd and the 1st the best, the 2nd only had a nice finale. The 1st, The Drowned, has some sort of a Ctuhlu underneath a mansion which is recently inherited by a last descendant of a family, and it is about reviving the dead, or at least trying to do so. Atmosphere was great and effects were good too. The 2nd, The Cold, is about a guy with strange machinery living upstairs in a rental house. When a new tenant finds out about his inventions, she unwillingly becomes part of it. This one saw some great acting by David Warner, but the road to the finale was a bit toolong. Innthe end there is some nice surprise for the gorehounds. The 3rd, Whispers, is the goriest. At first you don't think it will go that way, but after a short introduction, all hell breaks loose. And you might take that literally. Nice twists, too. Very good concluding story (I think it is smart to make the last story the best in anthologies, as people will remember it the most). Recommended.

Prometheus (2012): Yesterday I went to the cinema to watch this movie. I read some bad things about it, so I wasn't expecting anything special. And I must say, that it really is not. The first thing that already bugged me before the movie was even released is: the poster/cover. Holy shit, it is some damn lame. It tries too much to be like alien and shows you the big head that plays no important role in the movie. But let's get back to the movie. What I liked is that it does give you some answers to where the aliens originated from. Unfortunately the movie is nowhere near as suspenseful and horrifying as the Alien movies. The writing was quite bad, if you ask me. First it starts great and you get to know the characters. Then there is no more focus on them. You could easly remove half the cast and nothing would be missing. The characters act stupidly. First they are chicken shit, but when they meet the first alien life form, they are like "wow this is cute" and want to touch it. Omg, bullshit, bullshit! Too much focus on the android. Too many new questions rasied without being answered. Quite a dissapointment compared to the other Alien movies. They will probably make a sequel and cash in again.

If you are running downhill and there is something rolling after you. Why would you run straight down instead of running left or right?

I read on several forums that Prometheus shouldn't be compared to or is a part of Alien films, so maybe the film gets a bit better when not thinking of Alien?

Operazione Paura - this classic Bava is a favourite of several people I know, so I had high expectations watching this one. I wasn't disappointed, although the "masterpiece feeling" didn't come up in me. The story was actually not what I expected, I thought it'd be a giallo type serial killer movie, but it was a gothic style ghostflick with a twist. The twist/outcome was one of the best features of this movie for sure. Some of the actors weren't so good (like the guy who played the burgomeister), but that was compensated with some classic Bava camera moves and colouring like Argento did later. Some stuff was really predictable, like who the person under the sheet was, but that wasn't really a problem, it actually gave the film a bit of classic cuteness. It may be not my favourite Bava, but it ranks among the highest for sure. Highly recommended!

When Good Ghouls Go Bad - this is more of a kids movie than it is a horror. Yes, there are zombies, yes it is about Halloween, but it never gets scary and the characters are so over the top (like the coach, for example), that it is way too unbelievable to take it seriously in any kind of way. The story is also very sweet without any nasty edges, so really fit for kids. I was impressed by child actor Craig Marriott though, he does a great job, very professional. The other kids were less impressive, but most of them still played well. Christopher Lloyd also is really at home in this film. Recommended for horrorfans with kids.

Black Mama White Mama - early Pam Grier exploitation with Margaret Markov and Sid Haig. Pam and Margaret are two prisoners who escape but they are chained together so they have to deal with each other. Their characters are very different, so that is making it troublesome. Starts out as a WIP film, then proceeds to become an actionflick with revolutionaries, criminals and policemen in massive firefights. I had great fun watching this, but you must have some love for 70s exploitation, or maybe you can get that love by watching this film.

Rise of the Animals - hobby film made by a bunch of people who just wanted to have some fun. At least, I hope so. The story is ridiculous: all of a sudden animals are attacking people. The effects are laughable, so I laughed a lot at the crazy cgi and the handpuppets, and the actors who all get soaked with buckets of fake blood. If you have a spare hour (runtime is 70 minutes but last 10 are credits), go watch this with friends and some beers. Recommended for bad moviefans.

Some 3 new movies from torrents fith my two friends (lazy brothers from the block like I).

First movie is a action with Sly, Schwartz, Lungren, Jet LI....

Second crap is a some horror! High vote on imdb.

Third movie is a 2 hours hit from Universal Studio. Good special effects!

I don't remember a this titls and I don't have brain for this!

Good fun like a hell.

I'm waiting for a Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3-D (2012).

Exit Humanity - set right after the Civil War in America, this 2 hour film deals with a southern guy who, coming back from the war, finds out that something else has appeared in his surroundings: zombies. Soon he has to kill his wife because she has turned, and then he goes on a journey to find hois son, of whom he can't find any trace. The story is told by the voice over of someone who found the diary of this guy, and it is separated into chapters. Nice setup, but the animated inbetweens were a bit obsolete imo. The zombies are OK, the acting is well done and the story itself is quite interesting. It doesn't really become a horror, but it's still a nice watch.

Madhouse - the 2004 film. A guy comes to serve as an intern in a madhouse which is run by Dr Franks (Lance Henriksen). The intern is shocked by what he sees in the facility, especially in the basement where the "heavy cases" are stored. He befriends a nurse who shows him around and then all of a sudden the head nurse is killed. This is one nasty killscene, btw. A guard gets arrested for it, but then another murder occurs. The entire staff is alert now, because they don't know who the killer is. The intern talks to Ben, a guy in cell 44 in the closed ward in the basement. Ben seems to know more about it. Acting is good, atmosphere is OK, the basement with the heavy cases is well done. The plottwist is nice, but also a tad predictable. All in all I liked this one, surprisingly entertaining. Recommended.

Dracula: Prince of Darkness - atmospheric Hammer horror, but Dracula himself is a bit of a letdown. At first he doesn't appear for like an hour, and then he doesn't say a word. Meh. There are way better draculafilms out there, although the priest character in this one was pretty cool. I'd go for other draculamovies if you have 90 minutes to spare.

Creation of the Humanoids - hilarious scifi from 1962 tells us about a future where, after a nuclear all out war, the remaining few people are filling the gaps with robots. These robots keep on improving until they are a lot like humans. The more they are like humans, the higher their number: an R34 is thus more robotlike than an R68. Among the humans there is a group called "The Order of Flesh and Blood" who fight against the further growing influence of robots. One of the leaders is the main character in this film and when he finds out his sister is having an affair with a robot, right on the day the first murder by a robot was committed, he goes to see his sister and tell her what he thinks about it. The outcome isn't quite what he expected... Apart from the typical 60s stuff you would expect in a scifi from that era, I was actually quite surprised by how good the story was. Not unpredictable or anything, but still, I had a good time watching it. Not bad at all.

The Devil Inside - documentary-style made film about a woman who goes to Italy after having heard her mother killed 3 persons while an exorcism was performed on her. She is visiting the Vatican school for exorcists and meets two guys there who are willing to help her. What follows is a not really original story about exorcisms, but it has cool effects and although this is a found footage film, I actually enjoyed this one. Not extremely good, but good enough to give it a watch.

I watch INSIDIOUS 2011. Bao... afraid till now Thanks for the thread.

Enter Nowhere - low budget done right. The set is cheap, the amount of actors is low and the number of effects is zero. There you go: a low budget movie. But: they got the story right! Very important, when you have no money, make sure your free stuff is good. And the story is good: three people are in a barn/shed in a forest. They are looking for a way out, but while they are looking, they find out that it isn't a coincidence that they are all three in the barn. Cool story, it kept me uibnterested until the ending. It isn't a horror, though, more a mystery/thriller. Recommended anyway.

Gangsters, Guns and Zombies - low budget done not so right. Again, the premises are there for a low budget film, although there were way more actors involved. Actually the story wasn't so bad but it wasn't very interesting either: a group of gangsters just made a hit but one of them got shot. While they're getting away there are also zombies. They try to flee to the coast in order ot get ot mainkand europe and to evade the zombies. That's the story. The problem is that this film tries to be cool a bit too much imo. So, nice passtime, yes, but not a must see.

Cherry Bomb - stripper gets raped, but the guys who did it are powerful, so they get away with it. Now she plans her revenge. She is gonna kill all of them, sometimes with some help, sometimes without. Although this sounds like oit could be a great grindhouse flick, the execution is poor. The film never loses it's tameness. You don't get to see much except for some shootouts and some not so well done dialogues. Forgettable.

No Blade of Grass - postnuke film where all plants are dying of a virus. Now people are fighting for food everywhere. A family tries to get to a farm in the north to live with an uncle, but the journey is long and cumbersome. They encounter many groups and gangs, there is one fight in particular which was cool to watch, although it was totally unbelievable: the motorgang was driving in circles alongside some rocks behind which their opponents were taking cover and firing shots at them. Only when several of them had died, they started turning towards them. The drama near the end was OK, it saved the film a little.

Shriek of the Sasquatch - mmm, they forgot one thing in this film, and that was to put some events in it. For 80 minutes, next to nothing happens. It reminded me of an old signature spud used to have. Blonde bimbo walks through forest, guy in gorilla suit pretends he is bigfoot. The end. Only for bad moviefans, and then only with the necessary mind expansions.

The 25th Reich - I thought this would be an Iron Sky rip-off, but it wasn't. It was bad, though. I think that besides the actors, nothing was real in this movie. It takes place in Australia supposedly, but the background of the "jungle" looked very much projected and almost all assets were cgi, like the stone pillars with the snake-which-bites-it's-own-tail-sign. The story was pretty flat: small group of GI's need to kill/capture two escaped pumas, because highranking officers fear a publicity failure if they don't. It was a short film, so you won't waste a lot of time on it. Still, I'd recommend to skip this one, unless you really want to see an American army captain being assraped by a cgi nazi-spider-robot.

When I watched the leprechaun, I was kinda thrilled since it's very famous until the movie delved around curiosity and I wasn't satisfied by the ending.

Seven Deaths in the Cat's Eye - weird giallo, which resembles a Gothic horror. A countess in a desolate castle has some visitors and when people start getting killed, her niece goes to find out who is the killer. The setting is gothic, the monster in the basement is cheesy, and the plot is typically giallo: it has several twists and turns. In the end I guessed the killer wrong Some scenes are in Italian, the rest was dubbed in English. Atmospheric, entertaining, recommended.

The Awakening - set in a boarding school in 1921, a woman who lost her boyfriend in the Great War is investigating a ghostcase. She is very skeptical about the existence of ghosts, she actually wrote a book on debunking the ghost myth. In the boarding school however, it seems to be a tad different. I must say I was positively surprised: nice eerie atmosphere, some scary moments and a good story. Acting was well done too. The plot is not something I had never seen before, but it was a bit giallo-like and I loved it. Recommended, if not highly.

Stake Land - the world as we know it has collapsed, and vampires rule the land. Small bands of survivors have bunkered up in villages and towns. Martin's family has been killed and during the attack in which that happened, he got saved by a guy called Mister, a vampirehunter. Together they travel through America, encountering both survivors (some are good, some are members of the fanatical christian group called "The Brotherhood") and vampires (there are different mutations, of which the berserkers are the most dangerous ones). On the road to Canada they pick up several other survivors who travel with them. Nice film, good atmosphere. Only drawback for me was that the film didn't seem to want to choose between being serious or being funny. Now it was mostly serious, and therefore the jokes were a bit out of place. Minor nuisance, though. Recommended.

Super Fly - blaxploitation about a cocaine dealer thinking about getting out of the business, but having trouble to do so. Music from Curtis Mayfield, a lot of dope and outrageous outfits make this movie a cool experience, bro. Had a lot of fun watching this movie, but I recommend finding subs for it when you want to watch this, as I think I'd have trouble understanding some of the slang without subs.

Zombie Apocalypse - group of people has to survive zombie outbreak. We have seen it before, and this Asylum movie can't make us happy by being original or anything. Where this movie stands out is the cgi, and it is not in a positive way. The cgi is so overly fake, that it becomes annoying. The samurai sword for example, keeps slashing through (the same) zombies over and over again, but it never gets dirty. You see the cgi spots appear on heads to make you think a zombie got headshot. Taryn Manning was especially irritating in this film. I was amazed by the fact the other characters didn't use her as bait or something. The ending is hilariously bad: apart from the fugly cgi, there is enough to laugh at. Only for bad moviefans.

Cold Creepy Feeling – uuggghh, this was boring. A couple moves out of LA to live on ranch but that ranch is haunted. But until we get to see some ghost or demonic (I wasn’t sure which one was meant here, because they say it is a demon, but you never get to see anything which I relate to ghosts), there is almost an hour of film gone by. An hour! And after that, it could get spectacular to make it all well, but it doesn’t. Forget this film.

Supernova – interesting story: medical ship has to jump dimensions and turns up at a rogue moon where they pick up a guy who sent a signal for rescue. Now this guy is more than the crew bargained for. Acting is OK, effects are OK too but could have been more numerous. Problem is that this movie just doesn’t cut it. Really, everyone involved is doing their part really good, but… I don’t know. It is just not that good as, say, Event Horizon. If you’re a fan of that type of film you can safely watch this, though.

God Bless America - awesome film. For the Americans I know (who are nice people) I really hope they exaggerated a lot of the people who are becoming victims of Frank and Roxy. The story is simnple: Frank hates his country and goes out to kill all rude and irritating people. He meets a young girl named Roxy and she joins him on the ride. There is some excellent acting in this film, and most important for a comedy: it is funny. When this came out I was actually waiting for people complaining about this film for "glorifying violence" or something like that, but it didn't happen. Then again, it seems that nudity is frowned upon a bit more foten than violence Anyway: cool film. Recommended.

Underworld Awakening - the story continues. Kate apparently found some good mood to continue acting as Selene, and that's good: she really carries the film, imo. This doesn't make this a really good film, but entertaining enough: after all, Kate in a skintight suit is nothing to look away from. Maybe they should think really hard about the next film, though. I thought the novelty in this story (I won't spoil it) didn't really hold: it wasn't interesting enough for me. Right now it is 1, 3, 2, 4 for me.

Tied In Blood - a guy hires a man who knows how to contact spirits because his house seems haunted. A story develops which has many twists and turns: every family member gets to say his/her version of it. This is a very nice premise, but it doesn't really make it. The acting was quite bad all over, and the settings were superlow budget (one house and some surroundings). This should be remade with a larger budget, then it might become a really good film. As it is now: nice try, good story but the acting plus setting kills it.

The Fog (2005): Wow, what a shitty remake. This was bad. They took the original script modified it a bit with nonsense scenes and fucked up all the legendary scares from the original. This is as bad as a remake can get. Congratulations.
