So, this movie had me at hello. I don’t know if it was a mood I was in, but right from the weird mummified tube tortured dude before the credits, I was ready for more. It seemed Captivity was gonna freak me out just a little. And it did. A little.
Jennifer Tree (Elisha Cuthbert) is everywhere. Billboards, television, magazines…she IS America’s next top model. But here, …

I really do try to keep an open mind with these fast food murder mysteries. Sometimes a good one will pop up purely because of it’s style or camp…maybe even some kind of edge. If you don’t know what I mean by fast food murder mystery, well…

2. Is her mentor played by Denzel, Morgan, or Samuel L.?
3. Do you feel like …

Maybe because it was more of a glimpse into the zombie future and not so much present day. However “Diary of …

This is my BIG gripe. Hollywood needs to stop remaking these Asian imports. For the most part the originals are okay. But there are only so many times I can see The Grudge. None of them have brought anything new to the screen. They all seem to be some sad ghost story with Cirque Du Soleil elements. When you’ve seen them all, you just want to …

I was totally geared up for a sequel to House on Haunted Hill. This new one is still in the production hands of Dark Castle, but was created with an interactive gaming experience in mind. I’ve only seen the movie on DVD, but according to Warner Bros Premier, the BluRay disc kicks the film up a notch, letting you direct the path of the story line and create different ending. …

Sometimes I just want to be surprised. So I’ll make an effort to watch a film without all the “hoopla” of reading about the director and how it did at the box office. In this case, not the greatest idea. Turns out Kaw was made for the SciFi channel. Wish I would have looked into this one. SciFI movies are usually a hoot. Mostly because the …
