Case Study of a Zombie

Advantages: Different, focused story, great effects
Disadvantages: Actors and plot are secondary to the action

Return of the Living Dead part 3 (1993) After the truly awful mess of Return of the Living Dead Part 2 (1987), it’s surprising another sequel was made. I approached it with trepidation, but was quite pleased with the end result. Julie (Melinda Clarke) is the girlfriend of Curt Reynolds (J Trevor Edmond), whose father, Col. John Reynolds (Kent McCord), works at a military research base trying to create new biological weapons using the ‘living dead’ ...
...ID to sneak in to the lab and see what’s going on. They are shocked by what they witness; the re-animation of a corpse. Julie is fascinated while Curt is sickened. One motorbike accident later and Curt is breaking into the lab again with Julie’s recently deceased body and uses the chemical to bring her back. From there on things get messy. The story is written by John Penney, who also produces, but has few other interesting credentials; although ...

Open wide for your final visit

Advantages: Textbook acting from Corbin
Disadvantages: Slow to start with

...all hate to go to the Dentist and with good reason it’s expensive and the equipment used is far from fluffy. But if all Dentists were like Dr Alan Feinstone we would have cause for concern. Dr Alan Feinstone is a remarkable outstanding rich Dentist from Beverley Hills with a thriving office Dr Feinstone and his whole life revolves around perfection and a clean wife and hope some would say Dr Feinstone is a perfectionist some would say he was mad ...
...what I saw I think the right word is mental. Dr Feinstone in his mind begin to see imperfections and slowly his sanity begins to decay and if you haven’t brushed your teeth and been a good patient then this is your final appointment with the good doctor. Corbin Bersen plays the friendly but silently cycotic Dentist and it’s a part he plays very well I think in some part the acting can be seen as amateur especially where the police are involved ...

Review of Paranormal Activity

PMS Can Be A Devil

Advantages: Disturbing, chilling atmosphere
Disadvantages: Not all it's cracked up to be; terrible special effects, some laughable bits

...beginning to drastically differ from the sweet young girl she once was. When doctors examine Regan they find that she turns violent and screams profanities at them which she has never done before. Doctors decide that a physiatrist may be the best option for Regan, but when all else fails Regan’s Mother is forced to turn to the church… I wasn’t around when The Exorcist was first released back in 1973 but have heard numerous things about the film ...
...to watch the film but have always been hesitant due to all the harrowing things I’ve heard about it. The film has been named ‘The Scariest Film Of All Time’… fitting? I still don’t know. I have heard about people committing suicide after seeing the film but curiosity got the better of me and surely 36 years after it’s initial release the film wouldn’t be able to achieve the same shock factor would it? That I can’t effectively answer, after seeing ...
