Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
Second watch since about a decade ago. Fucking balls to the wall entertainment with awesome work by Tom Savini! Without a doubt my favorite entry in the franchise behind the original. I don’t think I fully appreciated this my first watch but man I’m glad I decided to revisit. Amazing set pieces, great gore and unforgettable characters sprinkled with genuinely funny moments.
Rating 4/5

I remember renting this from the local video store back in the day, watched it that night, came home for lunch and watched it again the next day( took some long lunches in those days), and watched it again after work before returning it. I own it now.

The Eyes of My Mother (2016)
A low budget B&W about a young girl who grows up keeping a killer as her prisoner/pet and becomes quite insane. It's a bit choppy at times and since it takes place over a number of years, and you have to sometimes assume what happens between scenes, but overall it's engrossing and quite creepy, with a good performance from the adult lead Kika Magalhães.

The Carrier (1988)  Low budget 80's virus outbreak movie, dumb, but coasts by on its timely subject matter. I've seen far worse, just don't expect too much.

Into the Forest (2015).
This is definitely one serious and heavy storyline flick here    .
It seems actress Ellen Page is really sticking to the tough yet brave survivor roles indeed   .
Thanks so much Chalice_Of_Evil for these intense yet really cool pic & GIF Pic and for this movie recommendation here too  .

 Overbearing sequel. Way more ridiculous, yet not as enjoyable. |

"Scars of Dracula" (1970).
The last period Dracula film from Hammer, this is obviously cheaply done at times, and the script isn't always very good, but it still has some of that great Hammer atmosphere, and a typically solid Hammer cast, including Sir Christopher Lee, who's in fine form, Michael Gwynn, and Hammer mainstay Michael Ripper.

A Single Shot (2013)
A trailer trash hick, currently going through a messy divorce, accidently kills a woman and finds a large sum of cash while hunting for deer. But there are some badass dudes who want the loot back.
This crime thriller is a yawn-inducing, badly written bore. Filled with long conversations with lots of banal dialogue. Also wastes great actors like William H. Macy (sporting a very ugly hair piece) and Ted Levine. Unsatisfying conclusion, to boot.
Such a shame, because the story seemed to have a lot of potential, but the bad script and slow pacing destroy what could have been a much better thriller.

Jeffery Wright was particularly disappointing, mumbling his way through his performance.

The Perfect Host (2010) – Excellent indie movie. A low-budget black comedy. David Hyde Pierce plays a schizophrenic who is just preparing to throw a dinner party for his imaginary friends when bank robber Clayne Crawford seeks refuge at his home. This makes the most of its modest budget. The plot has some nice surprises and Hyde Pierce is a revelation as the likeable psychopath. I’m surprised they’ve never done a sequel. But then, according to imdb, it even failed to recoup its 500.000 budget. A shame because it’s really good.

Double shot last night of two very different extremes. Both re-watches.  A great ensemble cast really carry this goofball comedy-horror. Charming, although I do find it to lose steam by the end.   The story might be muddled and anticlimactic, but the set-designs and practical fx looks good in this Roger Corman production. Oh, and of course a WTF moment here and there.  |

Just finished Identity (2003). It’s a dumb movie: poorly acted, poorly directed, horribly written. Yet I enjoyed it in part, because the central premise of strangers stuck at a secluded motel getting killed off one-by-one, Ten Little Indians-style, is so good. I was having fun until the remarkably unsurprising, incomprehensible, and unnecessary twist, which infuriated me about as much as The Village’s twist inflamed Roger Ebert. (I also guessed the, um, killer’s identity pretty easily, too.) Also: Why on earth give the Ray Liotta character a flashback when we know he’s not real? You know how much this stupid twist destroys the audience’s suspension of disbelief? Gah.
It’s too bad, because this is a great premise. Is it possible for someone to plagiarize it, or come up a super-similar plot that just avoids plagiarizing it, and then take the story in a different direction? |

I don't mean to be "that guy" but Legend of the Seven Golden Vampire is also a period Dracula film.
