Book Rating
A. Gardner's first published book was also my first cozy mystery to read. The writing kept me hooked from start to finish, and I never would have guessed who the killer was from the start! The 'clues' presented kept the plot intriguing and the subtle touch of romance added a little touch that made it even more enjoyable to read. No violence or gore, with just a touch of suspense to keep you reading on. All in all, a great read for an introduction to a new genre.

I really do love what Hayao Miyazaki creates. It's like any movie he puts out is gold. This movie is really wonderful. The characters are spectacular, and the animation is simply magical. I loved this movie a lot & I love the slightly creepy (Forest Spirit by far the creepiest) characters you meet as well.

FYI: If you're a parent looking for a new movie, please know that this anime is filled with violence & there is a reason that it is rated PG 13. It definitely relied heavily on the gore as well.

A rather poor, very low budget, comedy horror. It's very gory in places and the effects on the shoe-string budget are pretty good. The first third of the film isn't too bad, introducing some odd characters, a few gory scenes, plenty of B-Movie sillyness and nudity. Once they all get to the cabin though and try and hold out as long as the can it becomes rather boring and by the numbers. Watch only if you like odd B movie horror films or enjoy gore effects.

The Lament Configuration, that little box of pain and misfortune along with the cenobites had me at hello back in the day when this was released as it satisfied my horror fix and was certified X rated, which could be seen as a little heavy handed nowadays.
This film explores many subjects including sadism and sex and Clive Barker interweaves these wonderfully with gore and creepiness and pinhead the leader of the cenobites became a cult character that helped spawn many sequels, although I hear they never reach the heights of this classic.

Been watching this crazy movie and oh man it's good very gory which I like and I thought house of 1000 corpses was nuts this is even more nuts than devils rejects. Shame about Sid Haig as he was unwell to do the movie but he does manage to film some scenes so we do get to see captain Spaulding. So we get introduced to wolfman a new character who's just as dangerous as Otis and baby. Definitely watch again

Really great cgi, loved the "father" character (0 more)
Wtf with the ending. (0 more)
Overall the movie was good. The CGI was great and the fight scenes were excellent. The gore was a little much if it would have been humans it would have been an unrated movie so that was a little much. But the characters were likeable. The ending tho was terrible. The movie probably wasnt great enough to get a sequel nor does it need it. It just need a good ending and it would have gotten better ratings.
