Good vs evil. People of all ages, from all walks of life, coming together to "stand". (0 more)
The title says it all, on which side will you STAND?
I have loved​ this book from the first moment I picked it up and couldn't put it down, over 20 years ago . How could you not love a epic novel about the end of the world and the fight between good and evil? The characters are so very human, just a few on the side of good, the matriach, the unwed mother, the good ol' boy, the deaf mute, the judge, the soul singer. The demon/devil, ex-con, former cop, party girl, crazy arsonist are just a few on the dark side. They survive the plague and then have to take a "stand" (and pick a side) and survive the war between good and evil.

What if Superman was evil?
Being born and raised a diehard Superman fan, this trailer piqued my interest. It's a worn premise: What if Superman was evil instead of good? The answered has intrigued storytellers, comic writers, and moviegoers for years. And I feel that this movie answers it well. The best part of the film is that it doesn't shy away from the gruesome violence and gore that would ensue when one with these powers decided to use them for evil. Each member of the main family plays their role well, their internal conflict over the happenings constantly evident on their faces. Also, a great job of setting up an ending you expect and then delivering a shocking finale. Wouldn't mind seeing more into this alternate universe.

Not scary
The kids were great but it wasn't scary at all. Lots of good comedy but really predictable scares. Why would a child be lured by a clown if the clown looks so obviously evil?

Gizmo
A great story about a little creature that can spawn evil little F****** who cause death and mayhem. Has it's moments but, it is are for me to say a sequel is better and it was.

Evil Superman
This had a good premise, what if a person from another world arrived here with superpowers... But was evil. There are quite a few nods and scenes that will remind you of Superman. Clearly the inspiration for this film. It's definitely something original to have a horror like this. It is quite gory in places, fairly creepy but not scary. You'll find it fun if you fancy a horror film with a twist. Although it still left quite a lot of ideas to be explored.
