A Review of Covenant movie

Advantages: great special effects
Disadvantages: acting was little bit low

...good movie worth to watch. The great story line and interested. The covenant is a film about a group of boys who have some natural powers, they all have different power as compare to each other and as the approach there18th birthdays the get stronger and more powerful can do more damage However there powers to much has a consequence. The general view of this film seems to be that this is too similar to the craft which was about witches personally ...
...some great special effects and the story is completed in this one film, however some of the acting is a little cheesy but i don't think this film was ever made as a great masterpiece. But worth to watch this movie because this movie take your interest in it. ...

Werewolf hell

Advantages: Entertaining enough, funny at times
Disadvantages: Silly, confusing, odd characters

Orphaned brother and sister, Jimmy and Ellie, are involved in a car accident. On trying to help the driver of the other car, they witness her being dragged away by some kind of animal. Even worse, they both receive scratches from said animal, which, Jimmy later finds out, is likely to be a werewolf. Both of them start going through some strange alterations; even worse, it appears that people involved with them are also affected. In order to get their ...
...the werewolf. But just who is the werewolf in his or her everyday guise? And even if they do find out who it is, will they be able to do anything about it? The fact that this film is directed by Wes Craven was an immediate draw - I've enjoyed most of his films on one level or another. I'm also not averse to the odd film about werewolves. Unfortunately, this 2005 film has a lot of plot flaws. It isn't a terrible film, but I'm certainly not surprised ...

Review of Cursed (DVD)

More Atmosphere Than Modern Horror

Advantages: Really challenging psychologically
Disadvantages: No special features

...the pleasure park…… Carnival Of Souls is 45 years old (at the time of writing) it’s shot in black and white, but unlike many other movies of the time it looks older than it actually is. The acting is edgy at best, and on initial gut instinct you cannot help but ask why the hell your watching this awful film. Watching Carnival Of Souls I can only imagine to be like I night on acid; it messes with your perception and your senses. While Mary is going ...
...psychological journey with Mary. What Carnival Of Souls lacks in special effects, and general viewing delight it doubles up in psychological terror. I can quite honestly say this is the only older horror movie that affects me in any way. Its effect time, after time, after time does not diminish; it just grows in intensity. The most alarming part of the movie is the ending! It has a very modern final end that comes at you like a bolt from the blue. ...

I... will you... my power

Advantages: Fantastic soundtrack and brilliant stunts
Disadvantages: A little far fetched

...friend of mine suggested seeing The Covenant at the cinema when it first came out I wasn't too enthusiastic but decided to go anyway. All I can say is that I'm glad I did, as the film I saw was fantastic. The energy, power but also the empathy it created was immense and the soundtrack one of the best I'd heard in a while. Looking at how others have rated the film however I think I may be on my own. Ok I have to admit that the story is a little far-fetched ...
...Personally I really enjoyed the film, I can't say it's one of my favourite ever films but it is certainly something I would watch again. The Covenant tells the story of four young students in Massachusetts, known as the Brothers of Ipswich, are joined by their sacred ancestry and powers are nearing the age, 18, where they will receive powers that are far greater than those they currently hold. The powers however come with an exceptionally high price, ...
