~ An Immortal Battle for Supremacy ~

Advantages: Brilliant scenery, Great action, good characters
Disadvantages: Could have more SP/FX

...Supremacy ~ Underworld I first saw the film when I rented it from the local video shop and thought it was brilliant. The eerie pictures and captivating cover instantly drew me toward it. I had seen adverts and trailers when it arrived at the cinema and waited until it was released as everyone knows the price of cinema tickets are quite steep so I don?t tend to go much unless I really want to see something. The plot sounded good and I love vampire ...
...Blood Diamond and the other Underworld films where his part grows. Viktor- Bill Nighly Viktor is the Lord of the vampires who is raised by Selene to help win this war. After being woken early and not being impressed with her behaviour he seeks to rule the vampires into victory. He is a strong minded leader who is hard-heartened but seems to have a soft spot for Selene. Bill Nighly is a well known actor and I didn?t know he was in it until I saw ...

Vampires and werewolfs a bit different

Advantages: whether you like vampires or werewolfs you will like this movie
Disadvantages: It takes a while to get into the movie plot

This is a film i own and like this film as its different from your traditional of either films but fits nicely together. I think the story was put together quite cleverley because of incorporating the link between werewolf and vampire and the history behind them. This films shows a worlds gritty underbelly of the battles that go on to see which is superior werewolf or vampire as it is known years and years ago vampires ruled and werewolfs were their ...
...in love with a vampire daughter of the reigning vampire at that time as there are three of them. Well it was forbidden for either to be a couple so the head vampire had his daughter killed in a dungeon being exposed to sunlight. As this was happening her partner the werewolf turned from human into wolf but could not save her so vowed to kill all vampires for his loss. With a little help from a mutual vampire working both sides they tried to find ...

The film with the ass poster

Advantages: Scary and unique imagery and concept
Disadvantages: Bad acting, cliches, finale

The classic film opening - bit of music, bit of scenery from lots of angles, big shots of the city and then blamo we have Casey jogging along a bridge, one snowy morning in a park (twasn’t really a ‘blamo’ moment tbh). She sees a glove lying on the path and being easily distracted she decides to pick it up. Behind her a sickly looking child stares at her wearing only one glove. She turns away and sees a bulldog wearing a plain white mask over its ...
...describing to her friend over the phone as she baby-sits this creepy little boy and his sister. The boy gets out of bed in the night and when she goes looking for him, he’s in his baby sister’s room making her stare into a mirror, repeating over and over “Jumby wants to be born now.” Casey disturbs him and it smacks her up (changes her pitch up). Disturbed Casey is having lots of problems lately. She hallucinates weird things and her bathroom mirror ...

"The Unborn" A review of the spooky horror

Advantages: Great story, decent special effects and very unique
Disadvantages: Some 'off' acting in parts, can become a little boring

The Unborn is about an evil spirit from another world seeking revenge. Is it possible to be haunted by someone who has never been born? - It tries to slowly take possesion of her body. The Unborn starts off quite mellow and put together, but soon explodes with questions as you get a little confused. It's a rather dark film with some really scary bits which make you jump a lot, but it deffinitly makes a good film. I really did jump at one point which ...
...number 1 goes to Friday the 13th (2009). The storyline is extroidanary, nothing I've come across before. Like many people, I've seen movies which have people being haunted by ghosts and such, but this film is a spirit from a different world and involves twins from an unborn baby... how strange! I think the storyline is very clever and original as it's very different to any films people may class as similar. I must say though that nearer the end ...

Prequel to Underworld

Advantages: Good story
Disadvantages: Probably not as exciting as the previous two movies

...most entertaining one from the underworld series but rather serves the purpose of filling in gaps of the story from the first and second movie, especially on the origin of the war and the vampire council. The fighting scene maynot be as exciting/entertaining as Underworld and Underworld Evolution. There is also not a lof of special effects apart from the transformation of the werewolves but I think the main focus is really on the story and the details. ...
...I was a bit disappointed with the character of Sonja, I am not sure how to put it in words. I just feel she lacks something or the kind of attention Selene has on the previous two films. I can see that they have found someone who is kind of Selene look-alike but her character and other aspects are so different. However, she is supposed to be the character who inspires Viktor to create Selene but she is so much different to Selene. ...
