Tom Adkins
Just finished watching very predictable horror movie good on the gore should have seen the twist coming but didn't nice cameo from Tom Adkins who's been in serval of these type of movies managed to spot the written of the screen play in a small role. could have been a better horror movie than a Halloween rip off

Busta rhymes kicks michael myers into a shitty remake
Contains spoilers, click to show
After H20, killed of micheal myers, the studio was like we need anethor film. So we got this. Jamie lee curtis gets killed off in thr first 5 minutes, so the next 85 minutes we folllow a jamie lee curtis rip-off, maybe not even that. Anyways what was popular back in 2002, reality t.v. shows, so we get people going into micheal myers house for dangertainment the reality tv show.
Busta rhymes is the best part and the worst part of this film. He kicks micheal myers and sends him off to rob zombie's remake. Which i will review. But this film fans should skip.

The Queen of Fives is another exciting read (listen, in my case!) from Alex Hay. I really enjoyed The Housekeepers, so was very excited to see this come up on Xigxag audiobooks.
I loved this: it’s pacey, rip-roaring, the historical detail is on point and the story itself is unputdownable. The characters were fascinating, and I was cheering from the sidelines for Quinn, the Queen of Fives, even though her goal is to rip off the landed gentry (not such a bad thing, surely?!). The moral greyness of this is at peak level!
The narrator, Polly Edsel, is perfect and brings the cast of characters to life.
There’s dishonesty, family honour, independent strong women, peril, love, lies and fraud.
Highly recommended!

Things I liked about Deep Blue Sea 3:
- The good characters are actually surprisingly likable
- It's fishing village setting is a nice change
- That bit where a guy yeets himself off a huge boat straight into the mouth of a shark
Things I didn't like about Deep Blue Sea 3:
- The lack of original LL Cool J songs
- Pretty much everything else.
At least this one has the courtesy to not be a shit rip off of the first one like Deep Blue Sea 2, but it's still a film that would be a chore to sit through more than once.

Hell Fest was hella fun! Hell Fest is the perfect horror movie to kick off the Halloween season. While I was able to really get into it as I was only weeks away from meeting up with my friends in California for some hellish festivities of our own, I really think anyone that watches this movie will feel like it's your friends that you're hanging out and trying to survive with. Get your RIP front of line pass to Hell Fest and prepare for a killer good time.

Very similar to taxi driver (1 more)
A rip off of, the King of comedy
A great performance from Joaquin Phoenix is not enough to save this movie from being very average. I thought it was too similar to a lot of Martin Scorsese movies from the 70/80s, like Taxi driver and, The king of Comedy. This was a good film but, I felt like I’d seen it all before. I thought this was a bad attempt at replicating better films such as the King of Comedy.

Percy Jackson's world seems to be a target for weird creatures. Then he discovers why. The old Greek gods are real, and one of them is his father. At times, it does feel like a Harry Potter rip off, but there are some pretty fresh twists as well. I completely enjoyed it. And I discovered I've had one of his mysteries on my shelf for a while now. It's moved up my to be read list.
