Drag Me To Hell

Advantages: Make you jump in parts
Disadvantages: Not as good as they made it out to be

When I saw this film advertised I was so excited and could not wait for its release. It stated that this was the best horror film for years. I love a good horror film so was looking forward to seeing it. When i watched it i was quiet dissapointed, dont get me wrong it did make me jump in a few places but I thought in parts it was more comedy than scarey. I suppose this is because it was from the same makers of 'The Living Dead' films. It is a ...
...a horror lover like mysef and like a good scare then this is not really for you. Its worth watching but I would not go run out any buy it 'now' there is better movies out there that i have seen recently that are a much better horror and much better story line than this one. ...

Drag Me to Hell- Will drag you to hell with its weak story!

Advantages: Decent performance from Alison Lohman,good visuals at times.
Disadvantages: Weak story,illogical writing.not scary at all.

Director Sam Raimi's Drag Me to Hell stars Alison Lohman and Justin Long and is a horror film that made much buzz.I am not a fan of horror flicks and hardly watch any film of this genre.After hearing great things about the film i finally decided to give it a watch.And boy,was I disappointed! Christine works in a bank and is vying for the assistant manager's position when an old lady comes to her for her loan extension. When his boss tells her she ...
...to work as the assistant manager,she rejects the old lady's extension against her own will. What follows is a dreadful series of events after she is been cursed by the old lady. The film is all about the curse and how she tries to get rid of it.The devil wants to take away her soul and she has to somehow think of getting away from it. Between all this,the screen space is divided between her boyfriend and a couple of fortune tellers who try to help ...

Amusement? More like boredom...

Advantages: Starts off okay
Disadvantages: Unconvincing plot, all been done before

Three girls, Shelby, Tabitha and Lisa, are being hunted by a madman. First Shelby is waylaid by a truck-driving girl snatcher, then Tabitha is chased by a clown in her aunt and uncle's home, and finally Lisa is lured into a strange mansion looking for a friend. They were all friends in high school, but have since gone their own ways...until they find themselves together in an old house. But can they work out who it is that is chasing them and what ...
...Or are they doomed to die at the hands of this madman? Like many horrors, acting is not the strongpoint of this film. The three girls, played by Laura Breckenridge (Shelby), Katheryn Winnick (Tabitha) and Jessica Lucas (Lisa), are virtually indistinguishable, only differentiated by different hair and skin colours. Katheryn Winnick arguably has the greatest role in that she has the most screen time. As an actress, she did the job, no more, no less, ...

Perhaps it's time to leave town?

Advantages: Some genuine chills, good story, good soundtrack.
Disadvantages: Weak writing, some 'iffy' performances.

...directed by John Carpenter (Halloween, The Thing, Assault on Precint 13, Starman). It stars Adrienne Barbeau, Jamie Lee Curtis, John Houseman, Janet Leigh and Hal Halbrook. It begins with a eerie story told around a campfire by an old and grizzled sailor to a group of young children. The story is of a ship, the Elizabeth Dane, which sank a hundred years ago just off their small Californian town, Antonio Bay. As the film begins the town is just getting ...
...happening in the Bay and Father Malone (Hal Holbrook) has just discovered a rather unsavoury secret about the towns forefathers that puts a grisly spin on the festivities... This film suffers a bit from splitting the main action between two heroines. Stevie Wayne (Adrienne Barbeau) is the owner of a radio station and mother of a young son Andy (Ty Mitchell). She hosts the station's nighttime show and is witness to a mysterious glowing fog that appears ...
