About the blogger

I am a 23 year old big kid. I enjoy movies far to much, I am either watching, talking, or thinking about movies. I just love cinema.

Okay so more in depth, I love horror films. Why? Because the horror genre is easily the most adaptable style of film. There can, be action horror films, dramatic horror films, and horror comedy. Say any style of film and you can make a horror film in that style. Outside of horror films i enjoy all types of film.

Blog Overhaul!

Soon i will be making this blog much more than a forgettable review blog. I will be posting twice a week, and getting more reviews up.

I will also be blog more, actual blogs. Shocking I know, but here is why. I have been seeing friends, and family following dreams, doing cool things, and working hard. My dream is to eventually either get paid to watch movies or make movies. So i need to work harder. So expect some hopefully huge things that will be fun, and about films and get reviews and actually get a eventual following.

Oops.

So the Skyline, Battle :LA reviews kinda forgot, I will be pushing those to the back burner for now. The next few reviews will be of Comics, comics and comics. It will be of X-men First class, Thor, and Green Latern. They will be up this weekend.

The next reviews

Coming soon i will be posting the duel reviews of Battle : LA and Skyline. I will compare both. After that i will review the 4 french extremes. Martyrs, High tension, Frontiers, and the infamous Inside.

Red Riding Hood

Plot: A stereotypical village is terrorized by a stereotypical werewolf. Also theres something in there about a romance and some awful acting

Review: Well, i hate to have to actually admit to seeing this one. Okay so first

The Good: .....

The Bad: Everything. Nothing about this movie works. The characters are forgettable, unlikable, and stupid. The camera work is plan terrible, there is a awful shot of a character being stabbed shot from beneath the blade, and then it cuts to the blade into his mid stomach. Where was that from the point of view of...? The effects while they could be worse are still bad, the werewolf looks awful and almost cartoony. Now for the staring..erm i mean acting. Its easily the worst aspect of this film. The lead actor just stares with anime proportioned eyes, and for literally the first 65 mins of this 80 min borefest i didn't think the girl had a name. The two male leads, are awful. They are trying so hard to copy Jacob and Edward from the terrible Twilight series they just end up sucking even worse. Sadly one of the most comically bad preformances is from Gary Oldman. He has a weird accent that even a shakespearian actor like himself can salvage. Its russian, english, and a bit of Irish.

Overall: 1 1/2 Out of 10 Just awful. I don't think i have seen many worse films. I HATED this movie. Unless you want a gaging sensation stay away.

Time for a interesting review.

Plot: Okay how to explain without grossing out or confusing.

The Human Centipede is about a mad doctor who grafts a asian man, and two american girls together by mouth to rectum procedure.

Have you stopped reading yet? No okay.

Review: So yeah thats all i can add for a plot because thats all really anyone needs to hear to say either "Weird, this I've got to see" or "Um, ew count me out"

Let me start out by saying this really isn't that disturbing of a film. Yes some will watch and be disturbed by the concept alone and some will not be because its just so bizarre. The concept really is the most disturbing bit. There is not a lot of gore, and what is there is never extreme or over the top its just there because it is showing the consequences of someone being shot. The most violent part of the film is the surgery that takes place and its graphic but no more so then you'd expect. Okay so on with the actual review, one simple question a lot of people ask is, "gore, and everything aside, is this a good movie that actually stands on its own marits other than a one trick pony that its weird concept is that trick" and the answer is a sorta. Its a decent horror film, but exactly a scary one, nor once you get over the overall concept is it very disturbing. It fails in several aspects. The first fifteen to twenty minutes are almost painful to watch because of the two leads. They can't act, plain and simple. Its just rough to watch these girls. The director Tom Six is not from america and it shows. You can tell what the girls were original written as were two regular american girls. But they are so cliched and so bland, flat, and annoying. They act like airheads.

Okay so where it succeeds is, its about as original as it gets. They idea is grotesque, and it keeps you watching. The doctor is brillant, he is so darkly funny at times you have to remind yourself what your watching. I won't say much because i don't want to ruin the weirdness.

Overall rating: 6/10 It earns 90% of its merits from its originality. Yes it falls into some genre cliches but it still works well enough. Will it ever be a top 10 for me, No, but it is destined for cult status because of its bizarre ideas.

Fanboys

Ok first things first, this is not a review for the film.

Fanboys, fanboys , fanboys.......Oh how they annoy us. Yet we are all fanboys in one way of another.

We love and defend our favorite films, directors, comics, shows and music to a point where we will rage a battle over facebook for supirority. So why bring this up. Well i am not sure why just felt, right.Fanboyism can be a sight to behold, whether it be a catastrophic breakdown or a mild tantrum. Its entertaining. My last review, Centurion was written because my friend John happens to be a fanboy of the director, Neil Marshall, and up to that movie it was a reason i understood. Dooms Day, and Decent where great, Dog Soldiers was good. Fanboys are all of us, even though we are annoyed by them. I am a avid fanboy of the film Martyrs and the director Clive barker, even though barkers films aren't always great. So lesson learned, We are all Fanboys
