The Omen Pentology (Box Set)

Advantages: Fantasically shot, great value horror package
Disadvantages: Maybe a bit too focused and gory for the casual viewer

The Omen Pentology is definately a collection of top quailty horror films with convincing acting and great inovative camera techniques. That said the pentology is probably best left to the horror fans. People curious about the genre might find it a bit too focused and perhaps should start with more approachable films such as 28 days later. The films all have a different feel and angle but together form a definate collection and I would advise that ...

House of Wax - one place I would visit

Advantages: All the things I expected from a horror film and more
Disadvantages: Predictable ending

***Why did I watch House of Wax*** As an avid horror fan I do try to watch any new horror films that have been released. If the film looks really good then I head the girls to watch it, if it looks fairly average I will wait to hire a copy. Unfortunately my partner does not share my enthusiasm! I actually missed watching this film at the cinema so I rented a copy. ***Cast**** Elisha Cuthbert as Carly Jones (24, The Girl Next Door) Chad Michael Murray ...
...BFF) ***The plot*** House of Wax is remake of a 1953 film that goes by the same name. While the opening credits roll we get to see a brief scene where a couple are forced to put their child into its highchair after the father brings the fighting and screaming child into the room. As the child continues to have a uncontrollable tantrum the child is strapped it its highchair the mother gives the child a good slap and asks the question 'why can't he ...

'No, I am well, it is you who are dead!'

Advantages: hilarious - if you like black comedy, lots of Shakespeare, the inimitable Vincent Price
Disadvantages: very few

...the grand style of acting. Theatre of Blood was made at the same time that the National Theatre was being built (and a stage version was in fact performed at the National last year). Visually it's a very bleak film, and some people might find the Shakespeare, even in this context, heavy going, but it's definitely worth seeing. ...
