Red Sands (2009)
Rather disappointing
Well. As a horror fan I was hoping for a fun flick. I love movies where some mystical being is hunting a group of people. Be it an animal, a medical experiment gone wrong or a vengeful ghost. This movie sets a nice mood. It takes place in Afghanistan and features a group of soldiers in a remote outpost, deep in the desert. But after a loooong while you start to wonder "when it's finally gonna happen". The group finds a young, local women and decides to take her hostage. We all know that there's something wrong with her and there are literally dozens of scenes that constantly remind us of that fact. Watch out BIG SPOILER ALERT - she's a freaking djinn! That's almost immediately established and I really don't understand the false suspense with her strange shadow, stretching arms and stuff. She finally makes her move in like 15 last minutes of the film, revealing her true self but she really should have done it like 40 minutes ago. That would make this movie better.
Shakma (1990)
Not scary at all but still Fun to watch!
This is one of the most ridicules things I haw ever saw. But i still like it a lot. A great for viewing with a bunch of friends I guarantee it will haw you rolling down the floor. A group of teenagers battle to survive against the all mighty and angry baboon(u don't need pants for the victory dance...) There's a lot of scenes when the monkey roars like crazy and rampages thru corridors also a lot of stupid quotes and a whole bunch of very annoying characters. But it's fun just pure fun. I recommend it for people who like "stupid" movies and take pleasure in watching them because this movie as a horror is not scary at all. The monkey doesn't look so Evil that it could slay so many people but what I know, I never confronted a mad baboon. But I will bet twelve college students could stand against a panther or a small lion :)
