Overblown and gothic fun
Advantages: Brilliant performance by Gary Oldman
Disadvantages: Terrible performance by Keanu Reeves
Bram Stoker would have been amazed if he knew that the stories his mother told him while he was sick in bed, would grow into one of the biggest myths and moneyspinners of the 20th century. Coppola's film is a gothic, sumptuous and rather overblown version of the novel. As for 'faithful' - I don't remember a bit where Lucy runs through the garden wearing a red curtain only to be shagged senseless by a bison. Or the bit at the beginning where Vlad ...
...- faithful to the book my arse!
Never mind. Gary Oldman is fabulous as Dracula - sexy, anguished, and with an accent you can't place but somehow it sounds ancient, steeped in grandeur and blood. He's quite stunning in the role and you do feel for him. (Not like the book at all really where the Count doesn't actually appear that much and when he does, he's a red-eyed stinky breathed monster).
Dracula comes back to England because he sees a picture ...

Screaming fun
Advantages: In-jokes
Disadvantages: Weaker than previous Scream films
Scream 3 is the third outing for the popular Scream films, directed by Wes Craven, in 2000.
This film follows on from the previous film and sees Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) living in a deserted mountainside cabin. She is trying to get away from the trauma of the murders at Windsor College and is now working as a counsellor for women in distress. However when she hears about the murders on the film set of Stab 3 and that a picture of her dead ...
...are a fan of the Scream films, then you will love this, but otherwise it may be a bit difficult to follow some of the references to past films. I like the self aware references to trilogy films and the rules of horror films in general. Wes Craven has directed a film that does justice to the horror genre. ...

House of Wax - one place I would visit
Advantages: All the things I expected from a horror film and more
Disadvantages: Predictable ending
***Why did I watch House of Wax*** As an avid horror fan I do try to watch any new horror films that have been released. If the film looks really good then I head the girls to watch it, if it looks fairly average I will wait to hire a copy. Unfortunately my partner does not share my enthusiasm! I actually missed watching this film at the cinema so I rented a copy. ***Cast**** Elisha Cuthbert as Carly Jones (24, The Girl Next Door) Chad Michael Murray ...
...BFF) ***The plot*** House of Wax is remake of a 1953 film that goes by the same name. While the opening credits roll we get to see a brief scene where a couple are forced to put their child into its highchair after the father brings the fighting and screaming child into the room. As the child continues to have a uncontrollable tantrum the child is strapped it its highchair the mother gives the child a good slap and asks the question 'why can't he ...

A decent sequel
Advantages: Innovative and good script
Disadvantages: none
When Scream was released in 1996, I was very impressed by the satirical and self-referential style of the film. However I was sceptical when the sequel, Scream 2 was released in 1997, as I thought it was straining the idea to make additional films.
Scream 2 follows on two years after the events in Scream and sees Sidney (Neve Campbell) and Randy (Jamie Kennedy) trying to lead a normal life after their traumatic experiences in Woodsboro. While attending ...
...seeing stars who are big names now, playing small roles in this film, such as Heather Graham and Sarah Michelle Gellar. It is a nice idea having a film within a film and things don’t get complicated, which is good. Fans of Scream will be pleasantly pleased with this film. ...
