The Day the Earth Stood Still movie
I don’t know what on the earth prompt me to go for this movie; I had already read so many reviews about the film with filled mixed reactions. Those who had watched highly acclaimed classic with the same name made in 1951 simply loathed this one. I myself had …
Desperate Escape movie
Though made in 2009, Desperate Escape only premiered on the Lifetime Movie Channel in February 2010. Make no mistake this is a B-movie with a standard, much-used plot and not a single surprise within in, unless you’re new to TV and movies. What it does have, however, …

Movie Bandidas
I had hesitated to watch the movie “Bandidas” at first because it starred two actresses whose acting “talent” tends to be very overrated most of the time. Another reason why I hesitated to watch it too was because it first appeared to me as one of those movies starring …
Blood for Dracula
I have to say, I never really understood the fuss over Andy Warhol movies. I saw the film Blood for Dracula the other night. While the movie sounded good in the description (Dracula is growing old and needs virgin blood to survive); the movie itself was actually one of …
Film After Hours
Made in the 1980’s, After Hours tells the story of one man’s nightmarish trip into the Soho area.
This is a film by Martin Scorsese that Roger Ebert deemed so intense that he considered leaving the theater and coming back later after he had pulled himself together. It seems that …

Blood and Black Lace movie
This is Mario Bava at his best. With a cinematic style that was later to become the famous “giallo” genre in italian film industry is here more or less invented by Bava himself. A hideous murder story, unpredictable shock sequences, poweful imagery with a lot of camera movement and …
Movie: Haunting of Winchester House

Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace
Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace doesn’t exactly strike me as the movie that fans really expected Lucas to make following the original three films. The way that Lucas released his movies makes it slightly hard to connect them all, assuming Episode 2 and 3 are currently missing, …
Flakes movie
I absolutely hated this movie. For one, I had never even heard of it until a friend brought the DVD over to my room. It had her favorite actress in it, so we thought we would watch it.

This is successful when they go …
Harriet the Spy

The movie is a …

I first watched Ginger Snaps in 2005 due to recommendations on IMDb. It is a movie about two sisters, Ginger and Brigitte, who are going through changes, one symbolic and one quite literally. The plot focuses heavily on sisterhood, growing apart, changing, and love, as well as losing yourself …

Employee of the Month
I saw previews for Employee of the Month a few months ago but never made an effort to rent it. It just didn’t look that good.

Like most movies that take place …

21 (movie)
Don’t make the mistake to relegate the movie “21″ as just another movie focused on poker, because you will make one big error. The movie “21″ has the right recipe to attract audience from different generations to watch it because it includes drama, romance and hype.
The story of the …
