"Hopkins' acting was absolutely the only thing holding this anti-climactic film together....and that's all I have to say. " [More]

"This film is unlike anything I have ever experienced. While watching it I found myself questioning whether what I was seeing was reality captured on camera, or a very close representation of that reality that was filmed specifically for this feature. This diary/blog/relationship/romanc e/emotion/art is truly unique and inspiring...and I hope that more and more people get to see it each day. Four Eyed Monsters is destined to become a huge part of the art community and the counter-culture in general. " [More]
not a typical cartoon...

"I really wish that more people have seen this cartoon. It's a really good story about self discovery, and it is also an awesome avenue to learn more about everyone's favorite holiday, Halloween. This animated (semi)feature has a really old school vibe about it. The animation is very storybook-esque, but I think it really works. Learning about how different cultures celebrate the day of the dead was also really gratifying. And of course Ray Bradbury does a kickass job of narrating the whole thing. If you're lucky, your local video store MAY have a copy of this on video, and if they do it shouldn't cost you more than a dollar to see a cartoon that actually has some educational merit.I'd give it three thumbs up...if I had a third thumb.

"The Rules of Attraction, Roger Avary’s adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis’ second novel, is a clever look at the lives of several selfish, morally corrupt college students. Sean Bateman (James Van Der Beek) is a drug dealing anti-hero who wants to relate to the sensitive, pot-smoking virgin, Lauren Hynde (portrayed by Shannyn Sossamon) because he believes that she has been writing him love letters. Meanwhile, Paul Denton (Ian Somerhalder), Lauren’s bisexual ex-boyfriend, is pursuing Sean for his own romantic needs. When this film was originally released, it was marketed as being a typical teen sex comedy that nudged the volume up to eleven. No wonder The Rules of Attraction became such a notorious flop at the box office, it was made to be something it was not. For the record I am a big fan of this movie, and I have been since my first viewing four years ago. What I have discovered, however is that very few people find this film as pleasing as I do (w ...

"back when thrillers were still thrilling.....back when monster effects were actually still done on camera (not CGI)......back when I was four years old, this crazy concoction of awesome came out. This movie is chilling. It has a wierd way of making you question reality (in almost the same way as Wes Craven's New Nightmare). Any film that can actually make you think is definitely worth watching, and watching again.This isn't your typical, run-of-the-mill psychological thriller, do your self a favor and see this film.

"Few movies make me cringe in a good way...and no, I don't mean because of excessive gore or gross out effects. This film is hilariously horrible...but that still doesn't mean it should be thrown out of the mix. The first time you see this film, you're going to think you wasted your time. Upon second viewing it may seem that this film was made to be intentionally bad, I do not know if this is the case or not, but it seems that way on some level. When you watch it a third time, you will laugh your ass off. That's the bottom line. This movie is so bad that its good (an expression used often but never has it been so true)...NILBOG for life!

Can there ever be a perfect movie?

"The answer is YES...Now I MAY be a bit biased (considering that the hours i spent watching this little gem throughout my childhood probably could total to a couple of weeks) but frankly I don't give a damn, this is a classic. I mean think about it, you've got a typical 80's film (it even has a KILLER montage to the tune of "Rock Until You Drop") with the typical non-politically correct cast of preteens...you've got tons of monster archetypes...you've got Tom Noonan in one of his best roles ever (the loveable heart-warming Frankenstein's Monster)...and best of all you've got a (light-brown-haired) Dracula calling a 4 year old girl a bitch and then hissing at her...what more could you want?I just found out that this film (the absolute MOST deserving B-Movie out there) has finally gotten a proper DVD release. Now I will not be forced to deal with my crappy bootleg copy any longer. If you will excuse me, I have a DVD to purchase, and so do you...THE END.P ... " [More]
