Absolutely stunning. This is the kind of filmmaking that seems to have been relinquished from Hollywood. Easily the best horror movie I've seen in the last few years. I can't recommend it enough.

The Grudge 3--judging from the ending we'll probably get a Grudge 4.

Is this the one that deals with a girl and a car accident and something stemming from that?

No. It's a vampire movie about a lonely little boy who makes friends with a reclusive young girl. It's actually more of a character-driven piece than a straight horror film, but it's fantastic. The photography is stark and beautiful, the performances are all top-notch and believable, the pacing is perfect, and relationship between the two main characters is engrossing and fascinating. It's just a really well-made film that doesn't rely on non-stop pornographic gore or overblown CGI to enage the audience.

I've seen three...
Incubus--okay, so Tara Reid can't act for crap, and there was waaaay too much fake moaning and crying, and the plot was somewhat improbable. But ya know what? It wasn't half bad. There were some creepy moments.
The Unborn--like The Uninvited, it renewed my faith in PG-13 horror movies. It was a pretty good, creepy film.
Hostel II--I never got through part one, it was so awful, but this one was much better. Loved the ending. Wonder if there will be a part three?

I really enjoyed Midnight Movie. I'd never heard of it, but saw it at Sam's back in the spring and got it.

I watched Messengers 2: The Scarecrow. It was good for a prequel. I think it was better than the first one...this one had more gore.

I just saw Drag Me to Hell (2009). It was pretty good, but not the modern horror masterpiece some have claimed. Actually it reminded me a lot of Stephen King's Thinner. I read a bunch of reviews where people were criticizing the over-abundance of CGI and now that I've finally seen it, I have to agree. It was a bit overly aggressive at times. I think the biggest issue with the film, however, was its weird tonal shifts. It's set up to be a serious supernatural thriller in the mold of The Exorcist or The Omen, but it throws in some randomly placed Evil Dead-like campy moments that just don't fit the overall tone of the film. And then there's the strange casting of Justin Long as a serious character not in keeping with his usual sarcastic onscreen persona (which I could never quite get used to). All in all I'd give it 3 stars out of 5.

I love Horror movies and 9 outta 10 times when I rent I rent horror. The funny thing is very little of it actually SCARES me. Well, I rented the Spanish film REC last week and was literally jumping off the couch screaming. Even my huband was fidgeting in his seat!
This is the movie that the film QUARANTINE is a remake of. I havent seen QUARANTINE but my best friend saw it and said it was good.
I know subtitles put a lot of people off but I highly suggest you just rent REC. Very freaky movie.

ORPHAN. I had a few strikes against me because I had accidentally stumbled across 'spoilers' on the movies IMDB Message Board but even though I knew a few twists this movie was VERY enjoyable. The little girl who plays Esther was fabulous (and even though Esther is evil as all get-out she's so cute and charming I dont doubt I would have let her in my home too!) I have a soft spot for Evil Little Kid movies (they freak me out!) and this was a very good one. Recommended.

Watched the new Friday the 13th. Typical story line "kids go campin but they dont come home" anyway it didnt have the same feel as the old ones but im a fan so i atleast gotta watch it once. Last weekend we watched "haunting in connecticut". Coulda made it a little less far fetched and it woulda been more enjoyable. None of these new horror flicks got that good old 80's feel to them.

After the remake successes of Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Halloween I was really looking forward to this.
Jason was unconvincing, the plot made little sense and the ending was just a riduculous add-on that anybody who has ever seen a horror movie would have seen coming from a mile away. Pathetic.

The new Texas Chainsaw Massacre with Jessica Biel. It was horribly boring. It lacked everything the original had. This is exactly why I don't like remakes.

I saw The Happening last night starring Mark Wahlberg. Another let down I thought. Could have been so much more.
