Saw Trilogy Review

Advantages: Great price, 3 great movies, Gore fans will love it!
Disadvantages: None- I loved it.

...these are must see movies. Saw trilogy remarkably reworks the horror genre by adding a plot that is genuinely unique and keeps you guessing until the very end. There is no holding back when it comes to scene sheer violence and terror on screen as wrong doers are tortured. The strange part is that the killer in the movies does not think he is a killer, he believes that he is helping the victims. The people he tortures have all done something wrong ...
...to play a terrifying game to realise there errors and live better lives. The trap/death scenes are unique in each movie and will live you hiding behind your sofa. It's a must watch to see these scenes alone. A great addition for any gore fan. "Do you want to play a game?" ...

Confusing and ridiculous.

Advantages: Actors, set, period costumes
Disadvantages: Everything else

The storyline to this film is bizare. Basically there is an isolated village which looks to be set a hundred or so years ago, even though the film is set quite recently. The whole village is surrounded by a wood, and everyone in it believes that the wood is filled with terrible creatures who will not allow them to enter. The viewer later finds out that the whole thing is a giant lie made up by some technology hating old people in an attempt to create ...
...a no-fly zone around it. The film also tries, and fails, to perform a temporary 'the creatures are real' twist involving a mentally retarded man stealing one of the costumes and attacking a blind woman. The special effects were hit and miss, the village set and costumes were impressive, but when you saw the creatures for the first time they were quite obviously men in costumes, with their warning to the villagers being red paint on some doors in ...

28 Days Later ... the infected are here!

Advantages: Frity British horror film
Disadvantages: None

***Why I watched 28 days later*** As I true horror fan I always try to watch new film releases. Unfortunately for me my partner does not share my enthusiasm so most of the time I only end up watching the film when they are released on dvd. I love the original zombie style horrors so when I read a review about a new British post-apocalyptic horror film by director Danny Boyle (Trainspotting, The Beach) I flew down to the video shop to rent it. ***The ...
...learns that during the last 28 days he has slept through the effects of the 'rage' virus. The highly contagious infection seems to have spread quickly because it is spread through blood and renders a victim helpless within seconds, leaving them as deadly killer, referred to as 'the infected'. Unable to take in recent events Jim is desperate to get home to his parents, but Selena and Mark do not want to leave the sanctury of their hideout. After deciding ...

Once More With Feeling- love it!!!

Advantages: funny, musical, good for anyone even if not buffy fan, brilliant acting
Disadvantages: slightly cheesy

...when watching this episode of buffy is that it is FANTASTIC! Everything works so well together. The comedy, the music, the fighting. Brilliant. I will admit that i am biased as an addicted Scooby but i feel that anyone who hasnt been won over by the Buffy series before, this will definetly hit you with the buffy bug. Who knew they could all sing. This is even one for those who want to sit in and watch a classic musical. Even though it is a part of ...
...and one of my top ten that i own. The continuing of one of the forbidden loves of all time between buffy and spike. The first fight of the loved up witches. There is something for all in this feature length episode. You dont want to miss ou on it. ...

Cute, Clever, Mischievous, Intelligent, NOT.

Advantages: there's lots of scenes with Cute Gizmo in!
Disadvantages: there is none!!!

...obviously I was wrong. Also Gremlins is a great DVD but I watched it about 1 month ago, and could not review it due to the fact that I had a massive pile of Books to review. Anyway those reasons aren't really reasons, they are excuses... I would have reviewed this yesterday, although my heart was not into it... the reason is that 3 days ago my grandma died unexpectedly. She was healthy for all we knew, but she had a minor heart attack so my heart ...
...Billy breaks a rule and Gremlins spur from all over the place... The gremlins becomes the bullies and bully poor cute Gizmo. All kids would cry at that bit. But what will happen after? Will Gizmo be happy again? Will the gremlins die? What havoc will they cause? Would Gizmo leave? Or will he die? I shall not answer these questions, but you must be eager to find out. There are 2 different covers, there's the one that you would find nowadays which ...
