Decent cast (1 more)
Good cinematography
Not scary (2 more)
Predictable jump scares
Poor direction
Another Grudge
We really don't need yet another film in the Grudge series. Another re-boot that offers nothing new. The usual predictable jump scares mixed with an odd feel. At times it felt more like a detective drama than a Horror film, but it just doesn't fit. It does look nice at times, the detective film vibe sections at least, but it's a waste of a good cast.
Ducklady (1174 KP) rated Ender's Game in Books
Sep 2, 2019
I have never really been into science fiction novels, steering more toward fantasy. Enders game was probably the first science fiction book I've read and I was so impressed. The idea of video gamers being chosen for war is brilliant and the development of all the characters is very intriguing. The psychology used on the kids is fascinating, brutal and so effective its scary. Loved delving into this novel and hope one day theres a film that is actual worth it.

Throughly enjoyed
This film definitely lived up to my expectations. It makes you love the characters more and manages to keep all the charm from the first. Admittedly it wasn't as scary as I expected, but made up for it in creep and emotional nostalgia. Watching all the adults confront the core essence of their fears was heart warming, and some of the metaphors were exceptionally clever. Loved Stephen King's cameo too, made me smile. Need to read that book now!

Interesting way of storytelling

This was a really interesting film. Though there are some rocky parts, it was still tense and compelling enough to keep me watching. Plus the fact they basically made sign language like a super skill in a world where you need to be silent is awesome!
I will say that they do show the monster way, way too early for me though and so it wasn't really scary.

Just watched the first episode and right from the start it's interesting and really starts the story with a great premise. The cast is great and there are some scary and intense moments that are incredible. It is also set in the time of Jim Crow laws and draws some important parallels about the fact that Lovecraft was a talented writer, but was incredibly racist. The storytelling for the premiere episode is great and it left me wanting more. Overall, great show.

A really good, modern version of Jumanji. I loved how the game updates inself to fit in the changing times.
It is funny and I love how the characters are all out of their comfort zones.
A movie for all the family

Not terrible but should have been better
I didn't like the voice in this and that it was meant to be both funny and scary but really failed in doing either. It is more enjoyable to watch then some of the zombie films that are out there but with the cast list it was really disappointing to watch (was expecting far more humour).
An ok film to watch if nothing else on but there are loads more zombie films that are better to watch.

Excuse me while I empty my pants
I've played a lot of scary games from Silent Hill to F. E. A. R. and, well, wasn't scared. I haven't played Outlast but Outlast 2 shook me up. It is really messed up and the entire game you run for your life. It is so well done from the sounds to having to use night vision on your camera. Go get scared
