Out of fresh ideas
Hard to sat any 5th installment of a series stays fresh. This installment was released only 1 year after part 4 simply because the lead actress was young and they didn't want her to grow up too much.

The result is the same old same old feeling with a lower budget meaning bad lighting and not even good gore effects.

Actress Danielle Harris does a good job keeping the story going at a young age. She even has a tender moment with "Uncle Mike".

Overall, this leg of the franchise is complete and none too soon.

PG-13 why!!!!!!
Contains spoilers, click to show
A crossover that we been waiting for and its pg-13. Yea thats right a alien vs predator movie pg-13 so it cuts away for all of the kills and the gore. What also doesnt make sense is that it makes the predator the good guy at the end. Both of them are villians, this movie should of done that instead and focus more about surviving.

Still A.V.P. is a good film just wish their done more. Ohh also their a sequel, thats rated R but its worser than this film.

At least this film is watchable and fun to watch.

This was one of the few book series that I obsessively read and instantly loved. The romance isn't fast paced, there's historical facts that are interesting, and Maniscalco really knew how to captivate not just me, but other readers too (I got my friend obsessed with this series as well).
I will say, its not for those who don't like the extreme detail on violence and gore, but if you're a fan of crime novels and topics such as Jack the Ripper, then you ought to love this book!
I'm so glad I found this book and would happily recommend this to many people.

So having read / listened to a few YA novels recently thinking they would lighten the mood I went back to my usual pick of full-on serial killer gore-tastic and why did I ever leave!?! This is my thing apparently (not sure what that says about me!!)

I enjoyed this dark police procedural it ticked all the requirements, evil but clever killer, a determined but troubled police detective (not too much romance.) I listened to the audiobook narrated by CharlottMelen and appreciated the experience of not tripping over the Danish name pronunciation as would have happened if I'd read it.... Not for the weak of stomach.

Captivating in the first few pages
Story follows a young guy who is badly injured in an accident and receives an organ transplant with a ghouls organ. When he recovers from surgery learns that he has now become half ghoul half human and needs to eat human flesh to survive. The set of books follow his journey as he adapts to his new life and increasing powers in a constant battle between ghouls and ghoul hunters..... I won't say anymore so as not to spoil the story, but if you like manga, definitely recommend this boxset. 😊

Funny Horror
An ok Horror with a comedy slant. Featuring a nice cameo from Robert Englund. A bunch of serial killers escape an asylum to take over a Horror park based on their murders.
It's funny in places and the gore generally is OK, although very cheap looking in some scenes. Just a bit hit and miss with the comedy and scares a lot of the time. Often somewhere in the middle of not funny or scary enough.
Check out @Hell Fest (2018) on Netflix, similar but slightly better I felt with a cameo from Tony Todd.

A story of brotherly love... (0 more)
Ten year old Marty loves his brother Steve. But Steve has been acting very weird recently and Marty is about to reveal the shocking truth as to why...

Written from the perspective of Marty this is a well written and gruesome little novel of how situations can quickly escalate and spiral out of control. Fast paced, the darkest of humour and plenty of blood and gore keep this twisted story going at full pelt for its brief 137pages. Highly recommended for those that have a strong disposition and cast iron gut!
Now where did I leave my bowling bag?

Insane story
Rooster Teeth cast cameos
Give a bunch of gamer enough money to create a horror film...
So the Rooster Teeth team created a horror movie... we know the create some epic entertainment that doesn’t take itself seriously (Red vs. Blue, RWBY). Now give them the means to create the horror movie we’ve all discussed when hanging out... all the ideas in one... then use a festival so it makes sense for so many different horror genres to collide in one movie.
Reminiscent of the B-movies of the 60s-80’s that now hold “Iconic Cult Status” & that’s what you get from this film.

Finally seen this movie two months late was meant to have seen about the time when the lockdown started and no more visits to my local Cineworld was it worth the wait yes this movie is seriously crazy horror comedy thriller at the start u get to meet these characters who u think are in for the long haul then they are gone. for me the star of the movie is Betty gilpin seen her in few other movies but this is her best role yet her fight at the end with hilary swank major badass fight anyway I'm glad I finally seen the movie
