A FILM ABOUT A BAD HALLOWEEN COSTUME?

Advantages: Good acting
Disadvantages: Everything else

This early (1958) science fiction film, is an entertaining little number. It is certainly not the best sci-fi movie I have seen but it does have something about it. The special effects are not great, it is Black & White and the story isn't brilliant either, having said that there is a surprising performance by Warren Mitchell (Alf Garnett to some of you) who plays a straight laced Professor. The acting in this film is not bad either, and once you ...
...was not as good as they are today then the film isn't that bad compared to the standards of the day. Directed by Quentin Lawrence (The Invisible Man Series). The Story.... High in the Alps is a creature from Outer Space (well it has to be really) who decapitates it's victims whilst shrouded by a mysterious radioactive fog. In a research centre on top of a Mountain is Professor Crevett, and his team. They notice this mysterious fog and immediately ...

Review of Paranormal Activity

PMS Can Be A Devil

Advantages: Disturbing, chilling atmosphere
Disadvantages: Not all it's cracked up to be; terrible special effects, some laughable bits

...beginning to drastically differ from the sweet young girl she once was. When doctors examine Regan they find that she turns violent and screams profanities at them which she has never done before. Doctors decide that a physiatrist may be the best option for Regan, but when all else fails Regan’s Mother is forced to turn to the church… I wasn’t around when The Exorcist was first released back in 1973 but have heard numerous things about the film ...
...to watch the film but have always been hesitant due to all the harrowing things I’ve heard about it. The film has been named ‘The Scariest Film Of All Time’… fitting? I still don’t know.

That I can’t effectively answer, after seeing ...
