Joker (2019)
2019 | Crime, Drama
This movie is more than just a look at society and the influence of the wealthy on the lower class. This is a great artistic rendering of a character from a comic series. This shows the true darkness of the joker and what has driven his insanity in all of the Batman movies/comics. While this is just one interpretation of the origins of the Joker I would say that it is the most important origin story in film to date. This doesn't focus on the typical good guy vs evil trope that is prevalent in most comic book adaptations in current film. It focuses on the psychological aspect of the character himself rather than the message that he tries to send in other adaptation. Which is an important aspect to his character that isn't often truly focused on. Most other movies just focus on his insanity rather than where it comes from. He is utter chaos because that's how he sees the world.

Amazing RH!

This was a fantastic ending to a beautiful series! Kick ass female lead, a hot group of guys, supernatural powers and romance! What more could you want?
It was nice to see Kit confront her demons, and her mother. And she gained a father figure in return. And its amazing to see the group really come together and defeat evil, as cliche as that sounds. And Lucy!!! Plot twist of the century! I could never have seen that coming if her halo hit me in the face! The whole series was a rollercoaster and I literally didn't put my kindle down for 3 straight days! Work be damned! You get so enthralled in her life and you want to know what happens next, even now I need to know about kids and life after!


Tate is a fabulous author and an amazing person (I've met her, so i know its true!) I love all of her books. Check them out!

Watched last night on blu ray and in colour and loved everything about from the script the setting a prison the doctor played by Jon pertwee in his element now into his second season as the doctor. But let's not forget to mention the villain of the story the main villain of the entire season the master as played by rodger delgardo most doctor who fans will tell he was the first and probably the best master of all time he gives the role gravitas he can be both charming and then totally evil at the same time its shame he died in tragic car accident while on filming abroad . anyway still good story some nice action scenes near the end Katy manning is brilliant as jo grant in only her second story let's not forget unit always realied on to come to the rescue. Wont mention the dodgy looking dragon at the end of episode 2

This sequel to the average-at-best See No Evil is sadly a bottom of the barrel mess.

It's takes everything from the first film, and makes it so much worse - the characters are dumber and even more unlikable (although this time we're mercifully spared from the edgy mugshot introductions - it's the small victories), the story is less cohesive, the setting is somehow more boring, and it's less gory. I know that gore isn't the be all and end all of horror, but when you're making a run of the mill slasher, then it's expected. At least the first film packed a bit of a punch in that regard.
Glenn 'Kane' Jacobs is probably the best thing going here. His killer is still suitably intimidating, but he's stuck in a huge turd of a film unfortunately.

I'd still just about take this over Leprechaun Origins, but would rather just forget that WWE horror films are a thing at this point.

Homage to the 80s part 1
As a fan of 80s and 90s horrors the trailer drew me in but with mild concern.
As stated in the title, this is an obvious homage to the 80s (and early 90s) bringing in likenesses of Wes Wraven (scream) and Sam Raimi (Evil dead) in in wonderful mashup of horror.

Set in a small town seemingly cursed with bad luck, a group of teens find themselves hunted by a dead witch whose sole purpose is to take revenge on the town for her execution a few hundred years before.

On the run and hunted by demonicly possessed victims from years prior, time is not in their side as the teens seek a way to end the chase before they meet a bloody and gruesome end.

The first of a trilogy that did not disappoint and the start of what could potentially be something great.

"This is my favorite movie of all time, and the only one that I watch on an annual schedule (Thanksgiving) other than A Muppet Christmas Carol (Christmas). I first saw it on that holiday, and the experience was so meaningful that I suppose I’m always trying to recapture it. Coincidentally, on Thanksgiving my family used to travel to West Virginia, where the novel’s author, Davis Grubb, was from, and where the book is set. Grubb arguably doesn’t get enough credit for the look and feel of the film: I can’t really think of a movie that is more faithful to the tone and even letter of its source, and Grubb also essentially storyboarded the film. It’s such a rich parable of good and evil, and a boundlessly profound exploration of intangibles like innocence, loss, deceit, and the yearning to be loved. Although terror is a central theme, it’s ultimately a very comforting film."

"When I was a kid, the ending of this movie, where Kevin’s parents touch pure evil and explode, scared the shit out of me. I know Brazil is technically the more mature of Terry Gilliam’s films, and yet this is the one I go back to again and again. I’ve watched it many, many times since then, and I still don’t understand how it works. Gilliam creates an entirely plausible alternate universe with its own unspoken internal rules. It’s nightmarish and yet taps into what every kid desires/fears . . . the need for life beyond the yoke of one’s family. That last moment—which I’m sure was just a goofy set joke—was my first taste of existentialism. It freaked me out. I still don’t cerebrally understand why that moment ends the film. And yet it somehow works. I have yet to introduce this film to my daughter. Not sure when/if I will."
