Very Bad Things
Christian Slater, Daniel Stern

Polygram Filmed Entertainment, 2002

Very Black Comedy

+ black comedy at its best
+ very dark, very good

This very dark film is as good as black comedy gets. An accidental death (don't want to give too much away) at a bachelor party leads to a series of horrific events. Strange and grotesque scenarios occur - escalating into an unexpected ending. Christian Slater plays his role so well its scary. I ...

Swimming Pool (Unrated Version)
Charlotte Rampling, Charles Dance

Universal Studios, 2005

A Mystery To Watch Over and Over Again

+ A 'Swimming Pool' With a Psychological Deep End.
+ Iteresting Intriguing and a Time Well Spent

This is movie that I often put in my little box TV and watch while I play on the Internet. It's a slow rolling mystery that gets to you, and it has an wonderfully unexpected ending. Highly recommended for people who love slow-rolling mysteries without a lot of blood and guts. An English woman ...

Wuthering Heights (1992)
Juliette Binoche, Ralph Fiennes

Paramount, 2003

Fiennes and Binoche, simply outstanding

+ often misread
+ Love a speedy delivery!

The performance of Binoche and Finness in Wuthering Heights was amazingly powerful. People often criticize the movie, but, I believe, the director was extraordinarily faithful to the original story. All criticism was directed at how sadistic Heathcliff(Ralph Fiennes) was towards everybody. It is ...

Dracula - The Dark Prince
Rudolf Martin, Jane March

Live / Artisan, 2002

Watch What You Say ...

+ by far the best dracula

I'm writting this after reading the other reviews. You have to remember when watching this that it is a Movie not a Documentary. It's a great Dracula story based loosely on facts. If anyone is trying to convince you otherwise they're out of their mind. (And if anyone actually portrayed the true ...
  
  











  



  
Quills
Geoffrey Rush, Kate Winslet

20th Century Fox, 2001

An erotic and emotional journey, never fails to overwhelm you!

+ Somewhat Disturbing but Impactful
+ A Very Good Film

To be frank I didn't know a lot about Geoffrey Rush neither did I keep much expectations from this film. Now, I cannot deny at all that he is indeed a true artist and an excellent actor, he potrayed 'Marquis de Sade' really well and, simply an amazing performence by him, keen enough to overwhelm ...
  
  











  



  
The Company of Wolves
Sarah Patterson, Angela Lansbury

Henstooth Video, 2002

Greatest Werewolf Movie Ever

+ ...And Puppy Dog Tails...
+ Great movie but hard to hear

This is possibly the greatest werewolf movie ever made. I wouldn't call it horror, too cerebrel for that. Weaving many tales into the ultimate Little Red Riding Hood movie that is definately not for kiddies.
