Red Lights

N: Red Lights draws on the paranormal physic phenomenon, and with this great cast of actors the heart pounding drama in this thriller takes hold and will not let go until the very end. Enjoyed the opening credits as I do enjoy special effects and such. Though, a few scenes become a little being drawn out.  

Fright Night

N: An instant cult classic comes your way, with spooky thrills and awesome 1980's  special effects that will gnaw at your heart and leave you limp with fear. A young high school student that seems far more interested in the things that go bump in the night stumbles upon a man that appears normal, but under the ageless skin lurks a demon of the night. Fright night brings back those boy hood memories of wanting to leave the light on and fearing that something offal is creeping out of the shadows; across the room to suck your blood.

D: Ah, the 80s. When vampires were hardcore monsters that didn't shimmer in the light. That's right, I'm dissing Twilight...still.
Back in the 1980s a young boy in high school witnesses his new neighbor feasting off a woman (who is totally topless). He tries to warn his friends but of course, they won't believe him. So it is up to him to rid the town of this seductive, blood thirsty vampire, who likes sweaters.
A classic. Simply a classic. Though some of the effects are cheesy as provolone, it is still magnificent. The makeup effects on the vampires are just awesome, the story is great, its just the bees knees kids. Anyone who appreciates horror classics will fall in love with this ruby. Makes you wonder, what is with these kids and peeping into windows? You'd think by now they would learn. Peep into a window and you will be hunted by sexy vampire man in sweaters. Tremble at the sweater!

Entity

N: An average group of film makers gather at the edge in a remote forest to seek a place that may have paranormal activity and a sinister past. One woman, Ruth Peacock claims to be a psychic and can feel the presence of lost souls that had been taken in a horrible fashion. But as the group gathers at an abandoned facility the truth comes out and while a vengeful ghost stalks them its only a matter of time from my view point that none will make it out alive. Despite the harshness of this flick some of the effects- considering the vengeful spirit was engrossing.

D: In a way refreshing; a movie that's a mixture of mockumentary and traditional filming. I know its probably been done before but lets not debate, lets review.
Ok, read what my counterpart has written...got the plot? Ok lets begin our critique.
Now this was a pretty decent idea. Spirits that are trapped due to the trauma of death, military secrets, and one spirit that is really pissed off and goes on a rampage. Not bad. Some scary moments. Its just the whole, things left in the air and your left with more questions. There was a good lesson in this one though; when the psychic says, 'we need to leave', and she is a legit psychic...leave! Pissed off ghosts are not worth the ratings if it means your demise.

Apartment 1303

N: A hell bend ghost arises from the past holding a grudge against the new girl that just moved into Apartment 1303. The young inexperienced girl falls into a nightmare of being persecuted by the ghost and finds no refuge. Like a lot of remakes, this film fell short. Did not explain why some of the people had died in this apartment and I got tired of being dragged through horrible dislodge.

D: Another haunted apartment story. Another mysterious death. Another creepy neighbor. That explains this little slice of ghosts. But just so you know...
A girl who had just moved out of her mother's house moves into an apartment that is the property of a crazy ghost. This ghost goes on to terrify this girl who doesn't seem to get the hint that its time to move out.
Just an FYI, this movie is a USA remake. The original is actually...get ready...Japanese! Go figure. Other than that, there is not much special about this flick. Other than you kind of get a perspective of the ghosts point of view. I'll actually save you an hours worth of your life...everybody dies and nothing is resolved. The end.

The Haunting

N: After a few moments I realize that I have seen this film, but it had been ages ago. For the most part it has an entertainment quality. The visualization draws you in, and though I enjoy the characters (the actors for that matter) I feel that the script lacked a few things. It did not seem to me that Dr. David Marrow (played by Liam Neson) never fully developed a solid concept for his experiment.  Yes fear can drive anyone to the verge of pain, but he never fully solved the insomnia for his subjects. Of course I have not seen the originals 1963 film, so perhaps I should.

D: Oh haunted mansions, you are always the go to for a good haunting. Well, semi good haunting.
The story of a woman named Nell who after eleven years of caring for her disabled mother, goes out into the world to be part of a experiment for insomnia. Only its the old bait and switch; its actually for fear. After the group gets together, strange things begin to happen in this awesome mansion. Soon the evils of the past are revieled and all types of weird begin to happen.
This is all I have to say about this movie...its ok. More for background noise really. That is all.

Odd Thomas

N: A Fuel pumping driven flick coupled with a hilarious action that will leave you wanting more. Odd as he has been named has a special gift of being clairvoyant. While he tries to hold his life together he stumbles upon a plot that well may be the ending of a small town. Strange phantoms stalk Odd. An underground cult. And a beautiful girl makes this a must see. In fact if I stumble upon this flick at Everyday I'll be sure to buy a copy, and I'll now be sure to read the book written by Dean Koontz!

D: Wow! That's all I can say is wow. I will admit that when I was told this was the movie we were going to see, I was skeptical. But within the first five minutes, I was hooked!
This guy has the sixth sense and uses it to help those ghosts who need justice. He even helps the local police with unsolved murders. Soon he is put to the test when he begins to have visions of death and destruction and must put the pieces together, or otherwise all hell will break loose.
This is a movie that needs to be seen. I mean it may not be a oober scary movie, but it doesn't have to be. Its a great action/thriller with a excellent story line. I recommend it beyond the max. I'm just glad I'm not clairvoyant. If I saw what this guy see's every day. Just take me to the loony bin. I'd rather be bouncing off the walls with a straight jacket than see those things. Yuck!

The Secrete Village

N: I'm on the verge of shouting up for someone to wake me up from this nightmare. What a god offal flick. It appears that a young woman travels to a town to uncover a secrete cult that practices which craft and has been around for many generations. Its a great idea. But I give it low marks. Horrible music and low budget scenes make me feel sick. Not scary or gut wrenching at all. And whats even more outlandish is that this film has over a thousand likes on FB.
