Supernatural Season 1: A remarkable TV show

Advantages: Humour, suspense, good acting, attractive characters.
Disadvantages: Long plot, special effects aren't great.

...Season 1 of Supernatural is the story of the Winchester boys, Dean and Sam, who are trying to find their father after he disappears. Each episode features some kind of task involving the supernatural (of course!) and the boys must use their father's journal that he left for them to identify each creature and how to destroy it. As well as their "adventures", the main focus of this show is the relationship between Dean and Sam, and finding the monster ...
...the show and have watched every episode that is available in the UK so far. Lucky for American viewers, you are half a season ahead of us. But I recommend buying the seasons on Amazon as they are very cheap and good quality. It's a terrific show, funny and full of suspense. It is definitely worth giving a try. ...

Think Twice Before You Play A Computer Game!!

Advantages: Has Jensen Ackles In It!!
Disadvantages: Confusing Storyline

Devour is a teen horror film with an 18 rating. Not sure why it's an 18, but I'll come back to that! Jake Cummings (played by Jensen Ackles of Supernatural, Smallville and Dark Angel fame) gets signed up to an online game called "The Pathway", by his friends as a birthday gift. The game claims to know your thoughts, and calls you up on the phone and asks you to complete tasks in order to 'win' the game. The game starts to get out of control with ...
...origins of the game. Devil worship, kidnapping and family secrets all become evidently part of the whole scenario. Now personally I couldn't really make much sense of this film. It appears that they had an idea for a film that had a lot of potential, but they changed the plot as they were filming it. I am a huge Jensen Ackles fan, and his performance was good considering the story he was having to work with. He also stars alongside his father, ...

Supernatural: Season 2: Part 1

Advantages: It Links So Well To The Previous Season & New Viewers Can Easily Be Absorbed
Disadvantages: Some Episodes Cut Off From The Running Story

...Dean. And for those Supernatural lovers, the suprises in this second series will not fail you. After the incident that ended the first series it seems the ever unanswered question of..What Now?...Well the first episode of this fascinating second series certainly answers that for you, and includes all the tricks, hype and usual supernatural iconics. And that is just for starters.....each episode thereon in still seems to bring extra hype towards the ...
...the last series produced, it seems to all fall back down to one episode hunts again, leaving the larger story for the later parts of the series. I personally enjoyed how the series seems to relate extremely well to all the other previous episodes and is a tell tale sign of excellent script writing. I would not falter to recommend this to any spook seeking fan or anyone wanting some decent 'out of this world' science fiction that has been brought ...

Ok Horror Flick

Advantages: worth one watch - do it in 3D
Disadvantages: Didn't have 3D, probably would only watch once.

...murders begin again...... My Thoughts - - - - - - Following reviews that I have read I really wasn't sure what to expect. I didn't see this in 3D which is a shame and I would have like to. I really love a good horror film, and while I wouldn't say this is a great horror film - it is ok. I enjoyed it, liked the twist at the end, it was unexpected, but on the whole it could have been better. I have not seen the original and from what I have read it ...
...as horror films go. It is very gory which works in this film. It is cheesy and doesn't really take too much thinking, but who's to say that is a bad thing - not me. It is actually quite refreshing to have a traditional cheesy horror film - these days horror flicks can be very intellgent, this is basic and goes back to some of the 80s horror genre classics with he added bonus of it being in 3D. ...

Review of My Bloody Valentine

Scary Just Got Sexy

Advantages: Great storylines, actors, hot guys
Disadvantages: Too confusing

...show, I thought not another supernatural esc show, however when I saw the trailers for the show, I decided to watch it and like most women, the only reason I first watched the show was because of Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki. The Basic Show Plot Sam and Dean Winchester are two handsome brothers in their early twenties, who tragically lost their mother when they were young, which causes their father to go hunting for his wife's killer, ...
...as fighting new demons and supernatural beings to save the world. The Original Cast I think the reason the show works so well, has to be the brothers. I think they hired the best two people for the job. Sam is the broody younger brother and Dean is the funny, womaniser who provides just enough comedy for the show. Dean Winchester played by Jensen Ackles Dean is the older one of the two brothers. His main job, is to look after his younger ...
