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. ...

Return to Sender (Not Quite)

Advantages: Clever, Sarah Michelle Gellar,
Disadvantages: Silly, Inconsistent, Incoheren, Disjointed

...mysteriously similar to other sin the hotel and her tendencies towards self harm are becoming increasingly dangerous. Is she going mad? Did some trauma in her past leave her incapable of grasping reality? As she start to undig the past mystery's of the town in which she finds herself and starts to unravel the trauma of her past, she must chose her friends wisely, fight the supernatural forces at work and heal the relationships which have broken down ...
...unlocking the mystery? And will her sexual attraction to a gruff home owner deliver more than she is expecting? The Return is a sleepy thriller dipped in creepy Southern atmosphere; it's like a lazy, hazy Texas day.... hard work, makes you feel lethargic but eventually quite satisfying. The screenplay is riddled with useless plot twists, there are some serious pacing problems and it doesn't make a lick of sense, but it is refreshing to see a horror ...

Review of The Grudge 2 (DVD)

Scare yourself senseless...3 times!

Advantages: 3 great scary movies in one!
Disadvantages: Don't watch alone ! (Scary!)

The box set itself: Three fantastic scary films in one! And for a pretty decent price too! If you're a fan of scary movies then this is the set for you. Containing three scary movies from the years 2003 - 2004. The DVD's come in a cardbard box, enclosed inside is a cardborad case, silver, looks pretty nice actually. The case unfolds into 3, each 3rd holding one DVD. Unfortunately the only information you receive about the films themselves is on ...
...to look at each of the DVD's seperately, I have given each a "scare factor" and a "jump factor". The difference? As most horror movie fans will know there's a difference between being made to jump and being scared, "jump factor" is how much the film makes you jump, scare factor is how scared you'll be after watching it. The Grudge: = Outline of the film: It's a twisted, jumpy, thriller starring Sarah Michelle Gellar who plays a nurse ...

Best of Buffy

Advantages: Voted for by fans
Disadvantages: Only four episodes, available on other box sets

Ok, so I like doing Buffy reviews. But this one has a DIFFERENCE because this is 'the best of Buffy' not decided by the ratings or the director but voted for by the fans! This is the first problem with it: there is nothing new here, its just a greatest hits! Buffy fans will already have these episodes. For newcomers to Buffy though this would be a great place to start. Buffy is written and directed mostly by Joss Whedon, the same guy who wrote a ...
...character list for these episodes: Buffy Summers (sarah michelle gellar) Willow Rosenberg (alyson hannigan) Rupert Giles (anthony stewart head) Xander Harris (nicholas brendon) Tara Maclay (amber benson) Cordelia Chase (Charisma Carpenter) Riley Finn (marc blucas) Spike (James marsters) Angel (David boreanaz) Anya (emma caulfield) Faith (eliza dushku) Dawn Summers (michelle trachtenberg) Episode guide: Hush (from season 4) Creepy fairy ...
