Army of the Dead (2021)
Really disappointed...
It seems everyone wants to make big and flashy movies, the problem is big and flashy usually means sloppy and no character development/story. Snyder's DOTD was fun. But this is just..... not very good. I wish filmmakers would make good, well thought out films again, but we live in different times today. Like with Train To Busan: Peninsula, it's all flash but no flare. I'll be generous and give this one 4 stars.
The Terror (1963)
Doesn't get enough respect..
The production was obviously a mess, but as with Corman movies you'll always get top notch atmosphere, mood and cinematography. Sets were a valued part of film making back in the day, not so much anymore with the advent of CGI and the like. It's a real treat seeing Nicholson and Karloff on screen together.
Star Wars: The Bad Batch (2021)
Same ol' same ol'
How many years can you beat a dead horse with the same old tired story? Clone Wars is beyond played out. The Star Wars saga is so vast with so many different stories and characters yet all we get is the same old stuff. More Clone Wars backstory. The fanboys will pump up the ratings for this for sure. Give us something new.
Cordes (2019)
It's ok...
My biggest gripe is... that's supposed to be a support dog?! The dog has been trained in ways most aren't, to protect whomever it's supposed to protect and help. It's kind of annoying to see.
The claustrophobic feel is great, it's got some decent tension as well that builds nicely. The story obviously reminds me of Cujo but it is what it is, like most movies today, there's no originality. Still worth a watch though.
Black Christmas (2006)
I liked it...
Of course it's nothing much compared to Bob Clark's 1974 classic but I really enjoyed this one. The cinematography is fantastic.
Busanhaeng 2: Bando (2020)
What happened here?!
Wow, I loved the first movie. The story, acting, zombies etc were all there. This one was so all over the place with mindless story, ridiculous Hollywood style action sequences and no characters that I cared about. This is basically Fast and Furious with some living dead sprinkled in just to keep the older fans happy a bit. Big time let down.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
Wahhh
Everyone whined saying Lucas ruined his saga with the prequels. Now everyone says Disney ruined the sequel trilogy. There's no making the fans happy. This movie is fantastic and was a lot of fun!
Night Shadows (1984)
Don't understand the low score really...
The score is great, atmosphere is perfect.. Acting is OK but could have been better but overall I thought it was great. The scene in the school bathroom was amazing. There were a few one liners that I thought lightened the mood a bit as well. I'd love for this to get re-released on blu ray or DVD in higher quality format. I purchased this with 3 other movies on one DVD and was well worth the $5 or so I spent on it. Highly recommend this film if you're into toxic zombie and evil corporation type films, New Era Corporation was the original Umbrella Corporation. Just my opinion. It's a dark eerie film set in the boondocks of GA. "Goodland" is definitely not a place I'd like to hang around too long. As Mel says "shake a leg" and move on ASAP!
