Stephen (210 KP) rated The Belko Experiment (2017) in Movies
Jun 2, 2019 (Updated Jun 3, 2019)
If anybody asks me what I consider a 100% perfect movie, this is the one I would recommend. Although it’s tough to watch, with it’s shocking brutality, it’s also beautiful to watch. The use of the songs used on the soundtrack heighten the beauty of the movie’s horrifically violent scenes, which is one of the reasons that this film is so perfect.
An amazing cast creates characters that you either love or hate, which ultimately makes certain characters’ deaths heartbreaking.
Apparently there are no plans for a sequel which is a real shame; this is an absolute classic and a work of real genius. Watch this, and prepare to be blown away.

Lou Grande (148 KP) rated Marie's Room in Video Games
Jun 12, 2018
Kind of like Life is Strange, Marie's Room is the story of two girls--just without any of the supernatural elements. You move around (get this) Marie's room and piece together the events that happened twenty years before. The gameplay involves adjusting your sight with your mouse and moving with your keyboard, but it's surprisingly fluid. The goal is to complete Marie's journal by finding all the clues around her room. The soundtrack is awesome and included in the DLC on Steam. It's approximately an hour of gameplay, but it's a free game. There are no save options, as it's meant to be played in one session. It's a neat little visual story.

A Fantastic Show!
I'm not a huge sci-fi fan, but the combination of some of my favorite actors (hello Winona!) and the insane amount of 80's nostalgia - from the set, to the clothing and the soundtrack - makes it the wildest ride of mystery, fantasy and fun. The cast of kids are a great addition to the acting world and I imagine they'll all be world famous after all this is over. But I don't imagine the world of Stranger Things being over anytime soon!

I am Groot. I am Groot. I am Groot.
I am Groot,
We are Groot.

Initially viewed as one of the riskier entries into mnarvel's (then) expanding cinematic universe starring, as it did, a talking raccoon and a talking tree and taking its inspiration form one of the lesser-known Marvel comics (admit it, who'd heard of them prior to this film? Unlike, say, Captain America?) this proved to be one of its biggest hits and made a star of Chris Pratt (as Peter Quill, aka StarLord), helped - in no small part - by a killer soundtrack, a bit of comedic leanings and - of course - by the brilliant Groot!
Not quite as good as Baby Groot from the sequel, though ...

Awix (3310 KP) rated The Legend of Hell House (1973) in Movies
Mar 21, 2020
Broodingly effective British horror movie is strikingly unlike anything else of its time - not much resemblance to a movie by Hammer, or Amicus, or AIP. Four people move into a haunted house for a week; their beliefs about the supernatural vary, but they are forced to agree there is something funny about the place...
Understated, almost pseudo-documentary atmosphere works in the film's favour; the actors also know to underplay it until the big histrionics are required. Unsettling soundtrack by radiophonic genii Delia Derbyshire and Brian Hodgson is a major plus. The script goes a bit nuts towards the end (don't think too hard about the plot) but the journey to get to this point is more than worthwhile.

One of the definitive platformers. (3 more)
Animation and art is beautiful.
Catalogue of different levels is incredible
The soundtrack and sound design is on another level.
Exceptional platforming fun!
In early 2018, my love for the gaming genre was rediscovered with Hollow Knight. I've been spoilt with narrative marvels and open world paradises, that when I began Rayman Legends, I also rediscovered my childhood.
Everything about Rayman Legends is fun. From the bonkers and beautiful worlds that are so detailed and masterfully crafted, to the meticulously designed levels, which sometimes bounce along to popular songs, this game is the real deal. It deserves to be mentioned with the likes of Super Mario Bros. There, I said it.
