Those Damn Dirty Apes!

Advantages: Some great real-life FX. SO bad its Good!
Disadvantages: Some terrible FX, Acting, and sets. Very Dated

...title says it all - Night of the bloody apes…. Well actually its more like bloody ape, - there's only one of them. The movie opens with a laughably 60's style female wrestling match and then swiftly moves on to follow one mans plight to save his dying son, trying to cure his leukaemia by means of an ape to human heart transplant. Surprisingly the operation is a complete success but by the time we've endured another 10 minutes or so of wrestling things ...
...son turns into an ape-man. Gee I never saw that one coming. The transformation from man to ape is hilarious, a shot of a man in very bad ape make-up is slowly faded in on top of the doctor's son. "I was prepared for everything but this" cries the disappointed doctor as his ape-like son (man in ape mask) goes on the rampage, raping and ripping apart everything insight. The dialogue is mint, and is further enhanced by atrocious dubbing. A choice example ...

The House that Bled

Advantages: A worthy effort
Disadvantages: Jumbled structure | Dubbing

...areas popping up all over the place, there just aren’t as many supposed ‘haunted houses’ in your local town. With the current shift in this development so too has the amount of horror movies based on supposedly haunted or cursed houses gone down in favour of more modern approaches like teens getting hacked to bits. The haunted house genre has tended, though not always, played on tension rather than all out gore. The often-expansive buildings, morbid ...
...are willing to give us the slow, drip feed tension of old, which is where this film comes in. The Shunned House is, believe it or not, a film about a cursed house. Based on stories by H.P. Lovecraft it tells the tale of a series of three inhabitants who somehow met an ugly demise at the hands of the house. The first is a couple that are investigating the house and its dark past. Not content with just going around the ruined house in the day, the ...

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. I have heard about people committing suicide after seeing the film but curiosity got the better of me and surely 36 years after it’s initial release the film wouldn’t be able to achieve the same shock factor would it? That I can’t effectively answer, after seeing ...
