A true classic.

This is probably one of the best horror films ever made. A true classic.

The film is filled with great moments and incredible effects. Undoubtedly some of the best pre CGI effects ever filmed. The tension the film creates is perfect. The characters are believable and acted well. The story line starts off confusing as a helicopter with a passenger is seen shooting at a dog as it runs away. The dog runs into the camp and is rescued by a group of American scientists. The scientists head over to a nearby Norwegian research station where they discover that it has been abandoned and there are signs of death and destruction throughout. From there the story quickly progresses to one of terror as the scientists are killed off by a mysterious creature that can imitate them.

For those of a squeamish nature beware, the mutations in this film are expertly done giving a real feel of authenticity. It is a very bloody film with many violent deaths. But this is a horror film after all and you really get your money's worth here. It doesn't go too over the top like many creature films do. The direction of John Carpenter draws us in and along with it the terror felt by the characters.

In 2011, a prequel to this film was released showing what happened to the Norwegian team.

The direction is perfect, George miller uses so many little techniques to elevate the action sequences (6 more)
The film looks gorgeous
All of the actors are on point
The characters are really interesting and depth full
George miller accomplishes so much without dialogue, nothing is over explained, a lot is left for you to figure out or imagine
The sound design and special effects are on point
The practical effects and real life stunts make a difference in the emersion.
Probably my favourite movie ever
The plot is very simple but the film isn't about the plot. It's about the world building, the characters and the action. I think I've seen this film close to 20 times in the 4 years that it's been out and it never fails as an enjoyable watch. A lot of people I have watched this film with have complained about it being weird, and that really frustrated me. It's set in the post apocalypse of the director's vision with an explanation behind most things that isn't given. Even elements like the door warrior don't really have logic behind them but are still very creative. It's really enjoyable to watch the relationship between max and furiosa develop over the course of the movie, in what on the surface looks like nothing more than a 2 hour car chase. I love this film and can't find anything about it that bothers me.

Even weirder the second time around
When I sit down to do one of these things, I like to try and do something I haven't seen before...
But I couldn't resist reviewing this little piece of WTF.
The story goes like this. In 1940, the inhabitants of a small New Hampshire town vanished one day. All pf them jist walked into the woods and never came back. All but 1. He came back saying everyone else was dead and all he could hear was some music that drove them all insane.
Fast forward 70 years.
A group of dumbasses decide to take it amongst themselves to investigate what happened.
What follows is a mishmash of bad writing, fucking horrible acting and some pretty shotty camera work.
The one saving grace of this film are the effects.
While simple, they bring a certain flair to an otherwise boring and uneventful film.
Paying attention to an already dismal movie is even harder when you add in the horrible saxophone music that drives the party nuts enough to kill. Hell, I even looked in my wife's direction a few times while it was playing...
I gave it a 7 on effects alone. If that's what you're into then this movie is for you... If not... Skip it, forget it, and throw any thought of it straight to the ground... This is not OZ, Dorothy...
