As promised... Paranormal Activity 3 (2011, Joost/Schulman) Let's go back to your childhood. Were you ever haunted by a demon? Would you forget this?? Or would you just treat your audience like idiots?? As the female lead in the first film says that her childhood home was destroyed in a fire (after they find a charred photo), I wondered how this would pan out. Simple enough to achieve. but no, they literally change the goal posts. so, if this utterly fright free sequel is to be believed, good old granny is the leader of a coven hellbent (cough) on sacrificing her two grandchildren to whatever entity they worshhip. This contradicts the 1st film completely. Ok, you can say that they cast some spell to make them forget, but this is not the vibe that this pile of arse gives off. Never mind the fact that the picture quality is superior to PA, even though it's set in the 80s? It Follows had a better sense of period!! Ahem. and it didn't even have the bit from the trailer I was waiting for..... Also, I noted the huuuuuuge houses that these people all live in. Which means I could shoe horn them into the same genre as Eden Lake haha. But I won't. The Centerfold Girls (1974, John Peyser) It comes to something when the killer is the only stand up guy in the film. The rest of the cast are either totally venal or lilylivered. Recommended!! Room 237 At some point I am rewatching The bloody Shining. This is still a funny mockumentary. Or is it all true??? Who cares?

The people interviewed in this film are absolute lunatics I haven't watched The Shining in about 4 years so I'm well overdue a re-watch but I think I want to watch Room 237 again first! But if I recall, it's one of those films where the soundtrack is 100% more interesting than the feature!

Just watched The Devil's Kiss (Arrow) not as good as the 'amazing' Man With The Severed Head though it features largely the same cast, this is still an amusing piece of forgotten eurotrash. I really love this kind of totally unbelievable nonsense, these particular films have that right kind of spice. |

Don't get me started on the "actor" playing Reed god he had the personality of a plank of wood and the acting ability to match, this is the only film I've seen him in and have no intention of watching anything else with him in, and yet again they get doom completely wrong, how hard is it to do a good Doom! You just know a film is going to fail when the words "hip" " cool" and " appeal to young people " are mentioned by the studio and it turns out not to be any of those things. I still stand by my rating of 2.5/10 but with it only being 100 minutes I will give it half a point more. I doubt we will see the sequel planned for 2017 once it's been forgotten I expect next year fox to annonnce another reboot Of the FF just so the rites don't go back to Disney Last edited by trebor8273; 11th August 2015 at 02:04 PM. |
