Dead Boy Detectives (2024)
Light fun. But plot holes everywhere.
Good and light fun, easy to watch. Just don't focus on the plot too much. Haha. Eg. Iron is bad, but they can hold a crow bar? Ghosts can handle real books but others don't see the book floating? Ghosts can walk through walls but help you up hand in hand? Hahahaha. All in all its fun and easy. The main character is a little hard to swallow. The way he's written is uptight and team too much, and it took us a few eps to get over him. Not sure if it's the acting, the writing, the speed he speaks, not sure what it is? But again. The story is fast, fun and the show is easy to watch and has some fun characters in new roles.
Godless: The Eastfield Exorcism (2023)
Intriguing
Brilliant performance.
Godless: The Eastfield Exorcism is a mesmerizing supernatural thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. With its intriguing storyline, impressive performances, and the masterful direction of Nick Kozakis, this movie easily earns its well-deserved rating.
First and foremost, the director's vision shines through every frame of Godless, immersing the audience in a world filled with palpable tension and eerie atmosphere. Their meticulous attention to detail creates a seamless blend of suspense and horror, making each scene a captivating experience.
The plot itself is refreshingly original, taking the real life abuse of exorcism subgenre to new heights. Instead of relying on predictable tropes, Godless delves deep into the characters' psyches, exploring their fears, doubts, and vulnerabilities. This added layer of emotional depth adds resonance to the terrifying events unfolding on screen.
Based on the true story, the performances in Godless are outstanding across the board. The talented ensemble cast delivers nuanced and believable portrayals, bringing the characters to life with conviction. Each actor contributes to the overall sense of unease, making it easy for the audience to invest in their struggles.
Furthermore, the film's technical aspects are top-notch. The cinematography captures the haunting beauty of Australia, setting a gloomy and foreboding tone that perfectly complements the narrative. The sound design and score add another layer of tension, effectively enhancing the suspenseful moments and heightening the overall viewing experience.
In conclusion, the movie is a remarkable real life supernatural thriller that showcases the positive director's prowess in creating an immersive and chilling cinematic experience. If you're a fan of the genre or simply enjoy thought-provoking and well-crafted films, this is one you won't want to miss. Prepare to be captivated, frightened, and dismayed by this gem of a movie.
Hellraiser (2022)
Lighting is key to horror
Let's start by not comparing this to the original Hellraisers. In which case, the movie does OK to stand by itself. My gripe is lighting. There's so many amazing costumes and moving scenes and the magic is lost because the lighting is simply too dark. Like I get what the vibe is, but they killed it with the darkness.
If you compare it to the original movies it doesn't compete. Great to see strong female actors.
All in all its a good attempt. It's worthy of the name and worth the watch.
Pinhead is phenomenal to look at. The details of the pins is extraordinary. If you like horror, give it a go but watch it in the dark so you can see what you can.
Children of the Corn (2020)
It's not that bad tbh
So much hate here. I thought this remake was pretty OK. Certainly better that some of the later movies that came after the original.
Kate Moyra did a faab job. For someone of their age to portrait such evil is pretty darn astounding.
It's a good reimagination of the original. Yes, there is a moment where it goes into ridiculous. I wish for that part it had remained more supernatural and perhaps unseen than the route chosen and depicted.
Other that that, I think the kids did a believable job, and the story is not too far fetched.
But. For the most part, I for one welcome our new junior leaders.
Grimcutty (2022)
It's not THAT bad, c'mon people
Is it great? No. Is it watchable? Yes.
There's some pretty c grade movies out there but this one isn't as bad as the other comments suggest. Any true horror / thriller fan with knowledge of the B grade film industry would agree, it's not terrible.
Give it a go. Have an open mind. But, if you're into serious horror then this isn't for you. If you're into meaningful scripts and multilayer stories then again, not for you.
All in all, take it for what it is. Don't let kids watch it. And have it on while you scroll your feeds and catch the main points. Other than that, now I'm just filling the space for the remainder of the review.
The Masked Singer Australia (2019)
Mel B
Hughesy is supposed to be wrong. That's his role. Your aggressive, snobbish and upturned nose attitude is horrible.
All in all, it's better than watching paint dry.
Firestarter (2022)
Hmmm
How does a movie from 1984 have better effects than that of a movie in 2022?
Zac Efron carries the movie.
A shame as the original is a classic. Such potential for a great remake.
You (2018)
Fantastic
Ebs and flows but full of twists and turns. Great story. Great acting. Great monologues.
I thought season 3 had no where to go but wow. It's crazier than I could have imagined.
