Hell on earth

Advantages: likable characters, new direction for story
Disadvantages: super cheesy

Whilest this film leaves behind the story of the first two (which concentrated on the one family) I found it a refreshing change. The story concentrated on new characters and a new lease of life for our beloved Pinhead (now able to walk earth) It also told more about his backstory and his life before becoming a cenobyte. The lead character is a reporter, trying to get her big break story, who takes in a homeless girl who brings with her the lament ...

Hellraiser 3 - blood and gore

Advantages: Good fun film
Disadvantages: No DVD extras again

Hellraiser 3 - Hell On Earth I first watched this back in 1994 after watching the first two Hellraisers and recently found it again on Ebay so bought it. Thought it deserved a quick review. At the end of Hellraiser 2 we see Pinhead appear to be destroyed and mummified in that big Statue. In Hellraiser 3 we see him make a welcome return after some chick is killed and her blood splatters the statue that an evil club owner Brad has brought from an ...
...you'd expect from a good Hellraiser and this film takes it to the next level. The special effects in this film are awesome with little CGI. There's also a small scene where we see Kirsty (Ashley Lawrence from Hellraiser 1 and 2) talking about "The Box" from her stint in the mental asylum. The Cenobites (pinheads lackeys) in this film are alot more modern too. We see Joeys camera man with a camera ploughed through his head, and Joey now has a smoking ...

Hellraiser Puzzle Box

Advantages: The fist three films plus an extras disc
Disadvantages: Very Few, Difficult to fit in my DVD case

A must have for any Hellraiser fans, Excellently presented in the 'box', tons of really good extras. Very good special effects for its time with excellent custume design, from the twisted mind of Clive Barker. I personally enjoyed Hellraiser 2 better than the original and the storylines are original, however Hellraiser 3 brings on a new twist to the story (dont forget to see Hellraiser 4: BLOODLINE). Just for some information, here is a list of ...

Zombieland - Best Zombie Movie EVER

Advantages: Simple story, great action, awesome comedy
Disadvantages: Not great if your looking for a meaningful story

Zombieland has to be one of the best zombie based movies I have ever seen and that is comparing it to Shaun of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead and whatever other movie which includes Zombies or a representation of Zombies. This is mainly because this movie (unlike Shaun of the Dead) is funny and has entertainment value and actually kept me gripped for the full 1 hour and 20 minutes it ran for, which is another factor I love, a movie that’s short and to ...
...Possibly one of the best things about this movie is that it doesn’t have a complicated story to it, it’s all explained by a short and entertaining narration at the beginning of the film, telling you why the vast majority of people are zombies, which turns out to be because of an infected burger or something which spread as an infection, simple. The main character, whose real name we don’t find out but he is named Columbus because he is heading to ...

New Moon Movie Review

Advantages: Eye candy lol
Disadvantages: Skipping parts of the book

As a huge fan of the book franchise i had alot of expectations about the movie. Just like the first movie Twilight. Most of these expectations were full-filled. Although i feel many important aspects of the book weren't included, new scenes were added and others just left short. With most fans of the books, they generally enjoy the film and of course enjoy the actors who portray them lol. I have to agree, yes alot of the book was missed out, Bella's ...
...is skipped. But then general gaining of friendship with Jacob is shown. If you've read the books you'd see it as very fast passed skipping through the chapters. If you havent read the books, give the movie a chance Overall i did really enjoy the movie, even the slight over-acting of Jacobs character. 7/10 ...
