Cherry Falls

Advantages: Unique Storyline
Disadvantages: A little predictable

...someone after revenge and in Cherry Falls you get both with a almost predictable twist at the end. Most of the stars in this movie were unknowns at the time of this movie and I am not really sure if I have seen them since so maybe the biggest killer here was the movie as normally when a new movie star comes on the scene you usually see them atleast once or twice before they either sink or swim in the movie industry but I do not recall seeing any ...
...released. I really enjoyed the unique story behind the film as I have never heard of a film where you have to lose your virginity to stay alive. Not that the youth of today need to be convinced to get up to naughty's but if this was real life we would probably have a worldwide shag-a-thon on our hands. Unfortunately this DVD doesn't seem to have many features as much as I would like to see on a DVD. But I suppose when this film was released DVD ...

Review of Cherry Falls (DVD)

Want a scare? Then Watch!

Advantages: Two of the best films of horror made
Disadvantages: Alien vs Predator a let down :(

...are the defining films of alien horror and have influenced nightmares and feelings that we aren’t alone. Not many films can make a nasty creature come to life and not only believe it exists but generally feel scared that if you faced one of these aliens you know you are dead. It’s the weirdest feeling to have but a feeling that makes these films jump out and make you believe that aliens can be far scarier and daunting to face than the stereotypical ...
...victims more intensely, add the alien skins its enemies and hangs the corpses gives the predator even more of a nasty and evil presence. key things to watch out for is Arnie against the predator you'll really get the feel of man against alien and you'll get behind Arnie to show what humanity is made of. Also T-rex (Jesse Ventura) tries to steal Arnie's thunder by being the biggest bad-ass and he is huge and with his mini-gun you really feel worried ...

Review of Alien Vs Predator / Aliens / Predator (DVD)

Oldschool guts 'n gore epic!

Advantages: Great stylised visuals with a real retro grindhouse feel
Disadvantages: Absolutely none!

...exploitation movies and Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror is no exception. In a bid to replicate the old 'Grindhouse' movie experience Rodriguez and Quentin Tarentino put together an exploitation double feature, un fortunately it bombed in the cinemas (with a 3 and a half hour running time I can perhapd see why) yet now on DVD is it a joy to behold. Jam packed with guns, zombies, car chases, guts and gore all executed with some gusto, its a great ...

Review of Planet Terror (DVD)

Worst Film i have ever seen

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Poor all over, What happend Tarantino

Grindhouse This New release co Directed by Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino is a homage to the theatre going experience of the 70's and 80's and is a combination of two feature length films in one and they are meshed together with some fake upcoming movie trailers. There are a few well known stars in the film, Rose McGowen, Kurt Russell, Freddy Rodriguez, Nicholas Cage and Rosario Dawson. The First of the two films you get to see is that ...
...loosely based on a Small town that is infected by a disease that turns the populace into murderous animals called the 'sickos' who run rampage, its is up to the sheriff department along with a martial arts/gun expert (Freddy Rodriguez) and his M16 legged pole dancing girlfriend (Rose McGowan) to fend them off and help the non infected survivors escape, That of course involves lots of shooting, Blood and death. The Second of the two films directed ...

Another for the collection

Advantages: Brilliantly made
Disadvantages: The previews will make you want to watch them too!

...as you watch it. Planet Terror stars Rose McGowan, Freddy Rodriguez, Josh Brolin, Marley Shelton, and others, amongst which, you may know Naveen Andrews and Bruce Willis. I dont want to tell you about the plot as i think it might put you off, because on paper it sounds a bit strange. Basically, a biological weapon, designed to wipe out everything within a land mass is released, and gets into the general public, and what follows is a group which ...
...of horror movies? Not at all, in my opinion, this is the best of the lot, its not particularly scary, but fantastically made. At risk of including too many cliches within my reviews, i would claim that the film is like marmite (surely by now i dont have to write why its like marmite). I personally loved it, and think as an experience, it was a fantastic film, I actually watched it when i got the dvd from love film, and then went out and bought ...
