"I have a theory that there is no such thing as a bad horror movie. A horror movie that is truly terrible becomes hilarious, and this one proves my point. It is badly acted, badly edited and the special effects look like they are lifted straight from a 1980's video game. It is probably the funniest movie I have seen this year (so far - there are many, many horror movies I have yet to see) ****SPOILER**** I don't know why Daniel Baldwin is even in this movie. He shows up once at the beginning and once at the end of the movie, and doesn't do anything to advance what little plot there is. I hope he got well payed for what amounts to little more than a cameo appearance. If you like bad horror movies (like me), watch this. If you don't, don't even bother. " [More]

"Low budget, low class, mildly funny zombie story. Stock characters spouting cliche lines surrounded by poor special effects. What's not to like? For those who enjoy bad horror, (which includes me!) this is worth a look, if only for the awfullness of it. You have been warned. " [More]

Re:The Mist...Has Come

"[quote user="divinemsjunebug"] SPOILER ALERT: Okay, now, in the book didn't it just end with them driving off to try to find a place without the mist? I can't remember. But the movie...whew...yep, there was NO HOPE, no hope at all and he didn't even try to fight really, just gave up because they didn't want to become big bug food. [/quote] I have just seen the movie, and up to a point, enjoyed it. Up to a point because I HATED the ending, it completely spoiled the movie for me. I'm not saying that the novellas ending was better (it was) but the movie lost the whole point of the story. The world ended and our hero was heading into the unknown, the story was left without a definate conclusion, And don't say that that doesn't work in the movies, Cloverfield made it work just fine, thank you.

Most Disturbing
By myrdynn in HORROR MOVIES 101
"Ok, I just watched Black Christmas, which isn't a bad movie, and it reminded me of the one thing that makes me cringe, eye gouging. I have seen many horror movies and have laughed at most of them, but whenever someone pulls an eye out, especially if they then eat it, I cringe. Don't know why, but there you are. " [More]

Attack of the Crab Monsters

Crab Salad Anyone?

"A giant brain eating crab monster, that cannot be harmed by any weapon and communicates in the voices of its victims, and with plans of world domination. Just another one of those "Nature Mutated By Radiation" movies. This is a funny movie now, but is just another in a long line of movies playing on the fears of its time. The fx are cheesy (but probably state of the art in 1957), the giant crabs especially, with their human eyes. The final demise of the creature is fairly typical. Definately one for those of us who love cheesy horror/sci-fi. " [More]

"Like most bad horror movies, this one works best as a comedy. The car chases, explosions and fast food lifestyle do little do elevate this movie above your average schlock horror flick. The acting was the true comedic highlight of the movie with two of the worst stoners I've seen in a long time. For those fans of horror who truly enjoy the awful (Like me) definately worth a watch.

"A strangely compelling, weird little movie. Rickman and Walker play off each other well as a bickering couple. Reedus, the young good looking stranger, is a little obvious, but his Marilyn Monroe impersonation is, well, disturbing. There are a few good plot twists, a nice primer on mushroom picking and a fairly obvious choice of murder weapon, but the ending is still a bit surprising.That being said, the movie was well made and well paced and has an interesting feel too it.Worth a watch.

Starship Troopers

Re:They Got it Wrong
By myrdynn in The Film Library
"The worst I've seen are:-Lawnmower Man, which is truly horrible. Stephen King's story was SO much better.Running Man, the movie wasn't too bad, but completely missed the dark desperation in King's story. (Yes, I'm a big SK fan!)Starship Troopers, I actually liked the movie, then I read the book and wondered why they cut all the social commentary for the movie. The book is better, " [More]
