24 Hour Rental (2014)
I don't get the bad ratings...
I really don't get why the ratings are so bad for this... I loved this show. I was already a fan of quite a few of the actors in the show (mostly from other Canadian movies seen at film festivals or random Canadian-based movies I've picked up over the years), so that added to my liking of it.
It definitely is a dark humour type show, so it takes a certain kind of person to enjoy that. It's not everyones cup of tea, but for those that do enjoy that type of humour, this should be a hidden gem.
My only issue is that it is only available through SuperChannel. Would love to get the full season on DVD or BluRay or something at some point. I'd also love to see a second season. I feel like that would add to the quality (maybe a higher budget or something) and bring everything together better.
I definitely recommend it if you're into dark humour and movie rental stores. I mean... I wouldn't suspect any of the rental stores that are still open in my area (seriously... there are...) to have a people cutting off fingers and talking about selling bad drugs in the back room. Definitely a wicked concept.
Scarce (2008)
Prettyy Good :)
I saw this at the Toronto Festival of Fear (Fan Expo) this year in August 2008. I was super excited to see it because I kept seeing the trailer for it at the Anchor Bay booth. I was not disappointed. Great amount of gore and some really awesome shots. It's a perfect Anchor Bay title and will fit in perfectly with some of the stuff they've already released. I'm excited for this to come out on DVD! I also enjoyed the plot of the movie. The script was pretty good and got the point across. I really enjoyed that. And I REALLY liked the death scenes. The amount of blood and gore was PERFECT. That's my favorite part of a movie. Good job, guys!
