Prom Night (2008) followed every scary movie cliché out there.  I have seen many remakes/sequels and almost everyone of them has been a disappointment.  I have to question why it seems necessary to remake so many movies…are there no original movie scripts left?

The theater was filled with an abundance of prepubescent teens thrilled with the prospect of seeing a horror flick without their parents and even they laughed at the predictability of this movie.  You actually know who the killer is from the start and there is no mystery or surprise ending to help things along.

Save your cash…it is definitely a rental!

The Ruins, in my opinion, was a fabulous read and I totally enjoyed
the book.  The movie stayed fairly true to the book with only a few
character changes…overall they did a good job in translating it to the
big screen. 
I enjoyed the visual effects, but the terrifying sounds and screams
of the plant monsters along with their human victims helped to make
this an incredibly effective horror film.  There is the cast, which is
quite good, their acting above par for the genre and as a result we
get to know and care for the characters…which is always a plus.  I did
think the ending was a little weak.
All in all… it’s more original than the countless horror remakes and
sequels that have been flooding the theaters recently. 
I would recommend this movie to anyone that loves to sit back with a
tub of popcorn and just escape the daily grind.

First, let me tell you that this film is shot just like a very shaky home video…so…if you get motion sick…don’t try to watch it because you won’t be able to get through it.

Of course the way it is filmed adds to the whole atmosphere of the movie…and of course the plot…it is being filmed on a camcorder as it happens by the average people it is happening to. Imagine living your normal day-to-day life…when out of the blue, just as with 9/11…everything starts falling apart. This is a doomsday flick that was written and filmed through the average civilian’s perspective…never really actually knowing for sure what is happening to them…so all you will receive is speculation from the characters as to what is going on…never real hard answers.

You find yourself totally wrapped up with the characters and upset when it comes to an end all too quickly. I believe that you will either love this movie or hate it…there is really no room for in-betweens.

I think it would be fine for older kids, say 12 or older…may open a dialogue as to what plan of action they need to take in case something catastrophic takes place in your town.

One of the best horror/thrillers to come along in a while!

One Missed Call…. really missed the mark with me! I have heard all of my life that you get what you pay for…well paying full price for a ticket to this flick proved that statement wrong.

The mediocre acting, poor special effects and a bizarre plot line really make this one a “straight to rental movie”…you know…cold rainy night…nothing on TV…and all the good stuff rented. I was looking for something different and I am still looking.

Don’t waste your money on this one!

If you are a classic Tim Burton fan, you will love this movie!  I am very much a Tim Burton fan!  One thing I must stress…this is a musical…based on the operetta  Sweeney Todd.  A wonderful platform for Johnny Depp , Helena Bonham Carter, Sacha Baron Cohen and Alan Rickman to show off their extensive talents.

This is a dark, bloody, gothic flick…as stated before…classic Tim Burton…and, in my opinion it is totally captivating. From the very start to the bloody ending…it held my attention and was more than worth the price of admission.
Not a movie for children.  It has graphic violence…adult themes…adult humor…and lots of music.

GOOD JOB MR.BURTON!
