Halloween (2007)
One of the worst films I've ever seen!
This film was simply awful. And if you go over to Rob's official Halloween site on myspace, he will delete anything negative you have to say about it because he's a poser who can't handle the heat. It wasn't scary. It wasn't gory. He spent 45 minutes trying to show why this kid becomes the notorious killer he is. Though, I guess I failed to see the transition. There was no mood or atmosphere whatsoever. And Dr. Loomis-- Please, just do not see this film if you have any sense whatsoever. Go rent Dario Argento's Suspiria or Lucio Fulci's House by the Cemetery if you wanna see what a real horror movie looks like. This was a waste of $10 and two hours.
Banished (2007)
Way overwritten.
I believe this film had some nice shots going for it and a very complementing soundtrack. However, with most independent films, it has too much dialogue that's either been done before or just comes out sounding silly. I thought the lead actor playing Vespa did a good job, as well as his wife. Unfortunately, the rest of the cast fell short. Theodore was way overdone. You can even see him looking right into the camera on a shot or two. Also, the main villain is almost a parody of a bad guy. Finally, the guy who played Norm-- Well, don't quit your day job. Anyhow, there was some nice camera-work, but overall it was too predictable.
