Head Cheerleader Dead Cheerleader (2000)
A Horror B movie so bad .. it's not even amusing
No positives whatsoever I do not care if was a low budget film there is no excuse for this amateur dross. You might be thinking by the end of this film I could make a better movie with my phone camera.
Special effects are also very poor ,nothing redeemable in the acting department either.
I rented this out from Blockbuster in early 2000s and purposely grabbed it because the front cover made it look as though it was terrible...
And I love a "so bad it's good" kinda film every now and again, plus I wanted to prank my partner at the time and say this was the only film I got . Just see the disappointment in her eyes and then reveal 3 other new films I got and see her relief.
The head cheerleader dead cheerleader name is hilarious in itself lol.
Anyways avoid this film at all costs it is not enjoyable in any way whatsoever. 1 out of 10.
The Monster Squad (1987)
Add a dash of The Goonies with classic Monster's, simmer with 80s styling and you have a hit!
So much nostalgia for this film ..however I first discovered this film back in the mid nineties. Funnily enough it was scrawled onto a label of my friends blank VHS tape which obviously they used to tape from regular TV with old adverts and all lol
Sidenote: one of the adverts was of a Marathon bar before it turned into snickers
UK readers will remember the brand change lol
Anyhow I digress.
I was staying over at my friends house and I noticed this name Monster Squad because it sounded so silly and I said we should watch it later. ..obviously hoping it was going to be that type of movie that was ..so bad it was actually good.
Something strange happened we giggled at the premise and the B movie styled monster's but gradually became instantly hooked . If you have not seen this movie and loved The Goonies then you are in for a treat .
80s films have this timeless quality and over time this movie has almost surpassed The Goonies in my opinion.
The Monster's are a B Movie styled but it is intentionally done due to being a family film .
Embrace yourself in a time where it was a innocent time period where we played .. with freedom and adventure with our childhood friends and that feeling is encapsulated here.
Not going to win any awards but it's a cult film and needs to be remembered.
The Open House (2018)
Barely call it a movie
Strange movie release fairly good production for the first half of the film.. that's all the positives I can give horrendous script , plot and overall story with abysmal final scenes and you are left wondering what even is this ? Why release it ??it's like a lifetime movie tried to be arthouse and everything failed. Also feel sorry for the actors in this tripe of a movie. Agree with all the negative reviews please do not waste your time, even to see if it's so bad that it's actually good because.. it isn't. The
Movie sets up the premises early on and builds on them in the middle of the film and then ignores everything.
