Tracy Letts recommended Rosemary's Baby (1968) in Movies (curated)

"“He was in Luther and Nobody Loves an Albatross.” “Ectopic pregnancy.” “Chalky under-taste.” “Tannis root.” “All of them witches.” “What have done to his eyes?” “He has his father’s eyes!” “The Year is One!” And that’s just off the top of my head. Movies are rarely as quotable as Rosemary’s Baby, and no other horror movie comes close. Of course, those quotes come from a screenplay, written by Roman Polanski, who was faithful to the novel by Ira Levin. The whole enterprise is both hilarious and unnerving, a combination that is hard to pull off. It’s one of those movies, should you stumble upon it while flipping channels, you just can’t turn off."

Nice try.
Was excited to see something new from John Travolta and then was surprised to see that this was a Fred Durst film. The film plays out in a mixed bag of missed opportunity. You're unsure throughout the film who the director is wanting you to root for or what the message he is trying to relay. The plot, a familiar trope, has a few holes that are too glaring to ignore, as does the attempted neat little bow ending that fails on several levels. Did love several easter eggs splashed through the movie, though. Overall, it is another case of a great actor caught in a movie that falls short and could have been so much more.

Nut up or shut up
Zombieland is great, pure and simple. It's a common misconception I think, that zombies have been over done - yes I guess, but the same could be said about any genre - as long as there's the odd good one here and there then I'm ok with it.

Zombieland is a very self aware zombie film - mixing gore and action with a good dose of genuinely funny comedy.
The four lead characters are all endearingly likeable, and are easy to root for.
Woody Harrelson is a particular highlight!

The cinematography and special effects are stylish throughout the plentiful zombie action.

Throw in a great Bill Murray cameo and you have a winning formula.
