Hostel - Part II (Unrated Widescreen Edition)
Lauren German, Heather Matarazzo
Lionsgate, 2007
The sequel to redeem all sequels
+ Thinking Person's Horror
Hostel Part II is an incredibly courageous - almost ballsy - sequel to an already intrepid genre film, Eli Roth's Hostel. The mystery and suspense are inevitably low since the tricks of the Elite Hunting organization were revealed in the first film. Nonetheless, this does not detract from the ...

Cloverfield
Lizzy Caplan, Jessica Lucas (II)
Paramount, 2008
A change in modern cinama
+ Imperfect but entertaining
After watching as many movies as I have you see flaws in several movies or story lines done 101 times over. Well I found this movie to be refreshing. We open with a recording from a handy cam that makes me dread watching this being reminded of what a P.O.S. "Blairwitch" was. But I gotta say having ...

Mulberry Street - After Dark Horror Fest (2007)
Nick Damici, Kim Blair
Lions Gate, 2008
"Burn Hollywood Burn.......Long live the Independents!!!!!"
I'll be brief this time. No long winded verbal exhaultations....
I loved this flick. The characters were quite familiar, as i grew up in NYC..they were very real and convincing. The film, though dark at times (even in the dark shots you could see clearly what was happening), rolled along ...

Event Horizon (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)
Laurence Fishburne, Sam Neill
Paramount, 2006
Thriller of an event.
+ An overlooked sci-fi thrill-ride!
+ Actual Specs
Event Horizon is a tightly constructed science fiction movie. It doesn't have all of the star power one would want or all the special effects, but it has a tight almost seamless storyline. The story is what propels this movie - it doesn't lack for thrills or action where it is required. This one is ...

Picnic at Hanging Rock - Criterion Collection
Rachel Roberts, Vivean Gray
Criterion, 1998
My Favorite Scary Movie of All-Time
+ Another meditative outpouring of emotion from Weir
+ A Haunting Period Mystery
I adore scary movies! As a writer, I don't think I can afford to shut myself off from any human emotion, including horror. I love the first HALLOWEEN. I love the first NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT scared the bejeebers out of me and hey, I even enjoyed SAW! Instead of slasher ...

Safe
Julianne Moore, Peter Friedman
Sony Pictures, 2001
Safe
This isn't a movie where the heroine struggles against all odds to triumph over her illness as the audience learns facts about it. It's a bleak look at how society fails those who are different or have a problem, then tells them it's their own fault and if they would just do some positive thinking ...
