Boundin' (2003)
1/10
Corny
4 December 2004
I saw this when my parents and I went to go see "The Incredibles". I was expecting that Pixar had made a clever short, but I was disappointed. The short was dumb, boring, and downright corny. Unlike Pixar's other short films, which were original and clever, this seems to be copied out of some children's book found in a junk store. The cutesy rhyming narration and dialogue only add to the fire of this monstrosity. None of us were laughing but all the people behind us in the theater whom had an IQ of 10 or lower were all laughing, even at parts that weren't really supposed to be funny. A true disappointment.

1/10

Poltergeist (1982)
10/10
Monsters in the Closet and Under the Bed

Warning: Spoilers
**SPOILERS POSSIBLE**

What is a poltergeist? It is a ghost, which announces its presence with loud noises and the creation of disorder. But the poltergeists in this movie go far beyond that. Directed by Tobe Hooper and produced by Steven Speilberg, "Poltergeist" is (in my opinion) one of the scariest movies of all time. The plotline is very original (written by Speilberg), on how nasty ghosts invade a family home, kidnap the 5-year-old daughter and bring her to the other side, and her parents must battle the ghosts to get her back. Although filmed in 1982, the special effects in "Poltergeist" are very astounding and are done very well (my favorite being the beast esophagus, which manifests grusomely in the children's bedroom closet). Some people who have seen the movie still have nightmares about it two decades later, esspecially the incidents with the malevolent clown doll, and the swimming pool. "Poltergeist" is definately worth watching, for those in neat of excitement.

10 Stars.
