Andy K (10823 KP) rated Halloween (1978) in Movies
Sep 29, 2018 (Updated Sep 29, 2018)
The one. The only. The classic.
One of the original boogeyman films is still a classic. Some common horror elements used even now originated in this film and still work.
No CGI or campy effects in this film, just raw suspense. Certainly not a hugely bloody or gory horror movie, it relies on light and dark and some use of the "jump scare" before it even had a name.
I can't get the eerie theme music out of my head!
Time to rewatch!

A not too bad direct to DVD sequel. You don't need to have seen the first as it doesn't carry on any of that storyline, apart from the department store. As with most straight to DVD horror sequels you can expect more blood, gore, kills and nudity with a lesser known cast. The first half was ok, after that the story is way too simple and predictable. Slightly different feel to the atmospheric first. The gore effects are good though. Worth a rent if you liked the first.

Utterly absorbing
Amazingly, Disturbingly, Darkly Delightful
A fabulously dark audio play, with brilliant actors and sound effects. Absorbing you in a disturbing series of 'recovered memories', which is married to a great storyline, all of which intertwine into an amazing tale of insane corporate malice, murder, satanism, anthropophagy, torture, sadism, and greed.
Dark, twisted, and in some places, truly disturbing, it's probably best not to listen to this right before bed. It is, however, pretty much a must listen for those who enjoy the darkest of dark fantasies.

Interesting
This "horror" movie was ok. The acting was decent and the cinematography was good. It was a fairly interesting concept. I didn't get why all the employees would allow a company to insert anything into their heads, but that's just a part of the story. The effects in this were pretty good but the characters(several familiar faces) while they played out their parts well, weren't exactly "deep". This may not be the best horror movie out there, but overall it was entertaining enough to keep the interest. Worth a watch.

Better
This prequel turned out much better than the original. The acting and cinematography were spot on and the story unfolded much cleaner. There's plenty of "creep" factor in this one. Not heavy on jump scares but the creatures and effects were pretty cool. Watching the other one will make it so you kind of know what will happen but it doesn't take away from the entertainment value at all. The good news is you don't have to see the original to enjoy this one. It's a good stand alone film. Worth a watch!

This was a strange one. The acting was decent and the cinematography was good. The effects of the creatures was pretty cool, too. The story was just weird. Couple of guys on an island in 1940 running a lighthouse and fighting off what seem to be "mer-people". It was definitely unique. Plenty of action but not super fast paced or anything. The ending was ok but left a lot of unanswered questions. Overall this one is interesting enough to keep your attention. Not too scary for kids or anything, either. Worth a watch.
Logan (76 KP) rated One Past Midnight: The Langoliers in Books
Jan 14, 2019
I've always had fond memories of watching this movie as a child. Listening to the audio book narrated by Wilem Dafoe (who did great job, although the voices for Bethany and Rudy were extremely irritating) was pretty great overall. My biggest criticism is that a couple of the male characters stand out as exceptionally competent while the females are weak and needy, and it makes things feel a little imbalanced. I rewatched the movie after finishing it, and although the effects don't hold up that well, give it a shot anyway!
Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) in Movies

Solo was amazing! I loved it! Aside from a few cheesy Empire lines, which what do you expect from those Empire folks, I thought it was a great story with an outstanding cast and put together wonderfully. One aspect that really made it great to watch was a lot of the make-up and effects felt more practical and less cheap cgi, which is why out of the newer Star Wars movies I love Rogue One and Solo. A really fun and great movie I definitely suggest seeing.

Bad bad bad but watchable
If you are in bed I’ll or just want to flump in front of the TV, then watch this film on Netflix. Your would think it is several years old, but it was made in 2019. The budget must have been minimal because the effects are awful and the aliens, yes it does contains aliens look like Power Rangers if you remember them. Who rated the film because it is rated as mature so what is that a 15? Children would not be scared and would actually laugh at it.
