Triangle - Nov 2009

this movie made no sense and I ended up getting fed up with it and turned it off. Basically its a Ground hog Day of horror type movie where this girl gets into a loop of events that keep playing over and over and over with no way to stop it. I wouldnt waste your time.

Summer's Moon - Nov 2009

Ashley Green (better known for her role as Alice Cullins in the Twilights) plays Summer. A teenager who runs away from home to find her father after finding out her mother lied to her saying he was dead. Mom also lied to her father, telling her that Summer was a miscarriage.

Along her trip she runs into a boy her own age who saves her from the cops after she stole some food, takes her home and has sex with her. Afterwards she makes to leave to continue her search only to find she is now a captive. The warped boy chains her down in the basement as a garden decoration, she is not the only woman he has kept down there one of the other girl's father is seeking information on her.

It turns out Summer's father is also this young man's father. They are half siblings. The father is a sick twisted sexual killer who tortures prostitutes to death after bedding them and the step mother and brother are also twisted in their own little, but not as bad, ways. Even after finding out he is Summer's brother..he still wants to try and have a love relationship with her.

It was an interesting watch, I was able to watch it the whole way through without putting it on pause number times to break to do other things.

Homecoming - Jul 2009

this is a good Misery like clone and anyone who liked Misery will love this one.

Mike (played by Matthew Long) is a star highschool quarterback who went on to play college ball on a scholarship. Upon leaving for college he breaks up with his girlfriend, Shelby (played by Mischa Barton), and while at school meets somebody new, Elizabeth (played by Jessica Stroup).

He is going home on vacation to his jersey retirement ceremony at the highschool and is bringing his new lady home to meet his friends and family but it turns out his ex thought they were still together all this time and that he just needed some time away. Upon meeting his new girlfriend and discovering it is serious she shows her bunny boiler (crazy) side.
Mike drops Liz off at a hotel for the night because she has issues about meeting his mother while drunk, but he didn't stay long enough to see her checked in and it turned out the rooms were full. As she is lugging her bags down the secluded road, Shelby accidently hits her with the car while she was crying and unable to see clearly. Taking Elizabeth home she nurses her back to health while keeping her locked up the whole time and unallowing her to call anybody. Shelby makes Mike think Liz changed her mind about the relationship and went back home saying it was moving too fast, and begins her seduction trying to get Mike back for herself.

this chick is CRAZY lol. Very good movie kept me hooked.

Ghost Month - May 2009

After breaking up with her psychotic boyfriend, who still will not give up and accept the break up, Alyssa takes a live in housekeeper job with an oriental woman and her mother. The oriental family has a strict set of rules for Alyssa to follow, which of course she breaks at every opportunity. Things just aren't adding up especially when Alyssa finds the belongings of the past housekeeper who mysteriously disappeared and she begins to see apparitions all over the house.
During the time of her being hired the chinese are celebrating ghost month. The one month of the year which is similar to our Samhain, when the spirits may walk the earth freely uninhibited. The living performs rituals nightly to appease the ghosts and to keep them nonviolent but for some reason the ghosts of this house seem hell bent on communicating...something..to Alyssa.

Friday the 13th - Feb 2009

In this remake Clay Miller (played by Jared Padalecki, better known for his role as Sam in the Supernatural tv series) searches for his missing sister, Whitney Miller (Amanda Righetti) in and around the infamous Crystal Lake where he and another group of partying teens meet the killing specter of Jason Voorhees (played by Derek Mears)

I liked this version much better then the 70s and 80s movies even though it only loosely follows the plot of the old ones, I hope they do more movies.

Underworld - Rise of the Lycans - Jan 2009

this is the unfortunate love story that is hinted about several times in the first two movies. The daughter of the vampire lord falls in love with the werewolf slave. For awhile they meet in secret and have trysts but eventually are found out and she is pregnant. The punishment for unclean betrayal of vampire purebloodness is death, a sentence even her own father refuses to lift. They force the lycan to watch as they tie her to a pole and open the ceiling knowing what will happen to her when the sun comes up. Having nothing more to lose the lycans rise up and revolt, slaves no more. Sonja, the vampire princess is played by Rhona Mitra. The lycan lover - Lucien is played by Michael Sheen. And the Vampire Lord (in all three movies) Viktor, is played by Bill Nighy.

The Unborn - Jan 2009

I am going to try to review this one but it was hard to follow and very confusing to me. Definitely a wierd one. From what I gather a pregnant woman slowly becomes possessed by a spirit that is the result of a curse that haunts the family whenever twins are present. The twin that died in utero years ago now wants its turn to live and tries to take over its sister during her time of greatest vulnerability...her pregnancy. Its happened before to her mother and to her grandmother and is pure evil. The pregnant chick is running against time to stop the possession from completeing and to save her soul. Good for a one time watch when bored, online where its free, but I wouldnt waste my money in theatre or buying the DVD.

New Moon - Nov 2009

The second movie in the Twilight Saga is New Moon. During Bella's birthday party at the Cullin's residence she cuts her finger. One of the newer vampires in the family looses control charges her. Disaster is headed off but it scares the bejeezus out of Edward who decides it is too danger for her to be around the vampires any longer. Bella pleads that all can be fixed if he changes her over to one of them but he is dead set against it, loving her too much to submit her to a life like he has to live.
The Cullins pack up and leave, leaving Bella behind with a broken heart. She discovers that if she risks her life with danger his apparition appears to her. Needing to see him she time after time pulls dangerous stunts. Trying to move on, she starts a friendship with Jacob Black (Tyler Lautner), a native american boy who is also in love with her.
Victoria, one of the nasty vampires from the group in the last movie is back and after Bella in revenge for her mate being killed and Jacob and his pack of werewolves do their best to protect her. The next book/movie in the series is Eclipse and is currently in production, due to be released in june 2010 and I literally can't wait.

Twilight - Nov 2008

Bella's mother remarries and while they are away on their trip they send Bella (played by Kristen Stewart) to live with her father in Forks, WA. While she is there she falls head over heels for Edward Cullins,(played by Robert Pattinson) who at first resists her interest, but she keeps at it. Finally he succombs to her charms. She figures out through wierd things that happen that he is a vampire, but she is completely unafraid and just as much in love as before she knew. They decide to give it a shot. His family is not the human blood drinking type but they still have the urges and Edward needs to control these.
The only real action in the movie is when another vampire click moves into town and starts killing and drinking people. Over all, it is a beautiful romance drama story between a human and a vampire if I had 12 thumbs theyd all be up -- and I usually don't like sappy movies but have always been a vampire fan.

Lost Boys: The Tribe - July 2008

Set some time after the original Lost Boys movie, Chris Emerson (Tad Hilgenbrink) and his sister Nicole Emerson (Autumn Reeser) lose both their parents in an automobile accident and move in with their aunt in the California beach town that is as the old man in the first movie says "Crawling with damn vampires".
there is a gang of surfers (guess what? Their vampires) who rule the beach and of course Nicole falls for one of them. Chris must intervene before she becomes one of them and of course who comes to his aid but Edgar Frog (played once again by Corey Fieldman)
Sam Emerson (Corey Haim) appears ever so briefly, now a vampire, for a verbal exchange with Frog.

Seamstress - Oct 2009

An innocent woman is tortured and killed by a vigilante mob for torturing and killing their children. They sew her mouth shut and cut out her eyes. Before dying she ripped her mouth free and uttered a horrible curse. The real killer is to be brought to her or else she will kill any who come to the island she haunts.
Fast forward about 20 years. A young girl and her friends take a boat to the island following a trail to her missing father, and the slaughter begins.

Giallo - 2009

Giallo is Italian for yellow and thats exactly what the villian is in the this movie. This very ugly man who hates anything beautiful, and has hepatitus, kidnaps beautiful women, torturing and disfiguring them to death.
Usually he kidnaps alien women who are not from his country and will not be missed by anyone so there are rarely compliants but this time he picks a beautiful supermodel whose sister, Celine(played by Elsa Pataky) is in town visiting her, and who is on the phone with her at the time of abduction
The sister enlists the help of inspector Enzo Lavia(played by Adrien Brody) and together they race against time before the kidnapped becomes another fatality of Giallo the butcher (played by Giuseppe Loconsole)
Well done for a drama/thriller though I didn't care for the ending much.
