The Devil's Rejects (2005)
sequels, who likes then
first, i must say that i am the biggest opponents to sequels. how can you improve anything that has been done before. second of all, i must say that i hated house of a thousand corpses so much that i could not watch the movie from start to end. sheer misery.
now i must confess that when i saw that this movie was coming out, another zombie work, i swore up and down that i would not waste my time or money on this tripe. for some odd reason, the previews drew my attention to it. watched the movie with an open mind. when i discovered the very close ties to 1000 corpses, i became very upset that i fell for it.
confession, the music in this movie made it very difficult for me to give up on it. OK! the movie moved a little slow for me. must complain that baby has absolutely no acting skills. anyway, it took a while for the movie to gain some steam, but when it finally did i actually found myself cheering at what was happening.
for fear of giving anything away, i will just say that 1000 corpses and the devil's rejects are two definitely contrasting like black and white. doubt there will be many people that like both. you will like one or the other.
i hated 1000 corpses but really enjoyed the devil's rejects. take it for what you will.
Spencer (1984)
one of the best shows ruined by egos
Spencer was one of my favorite shows and i taped them when it was in prime time. too bad it only lasted one season (for me) because of two things. first, they replace chad Lowe with some geeky, mopey dork that had absolutely no charisma or personality. all because Mr Lowe wanted top billing. maybe it would have been worth it. second of all, they make the father disappear. i loved Bailey and Wayne as the best friends. the mere sight of them cracked me up. my favorite episode was the new years eve one when the two goofs thought they had dates with smoking chicks, while Spencer had a date with a girl considerably taller than he was. chick from back to school. anyway, had chad not wanted STAR status, or the execs decided just to give in to his wishes, the show probably would have lasted a few more seasons. boo too you NBC.
House of the Dead (2003)
i admit i like bad movies
but this one by far was the most disappointing of bad flicks. i was excited when i assumed that there might be some background to the video game, eg. tron, but the whole story was lame. it even was comically ridiculous when images of the video game were imposed onto the film. it was obviously just a gimmick to swindle those of us who like background as such. being an avid fan of zombie movies, i must say that this one was so bad i could not wait for it to end. i love night of the living dead, both 'dawns of ...', 'day of ...' is bad, zombie was not good, 'Shaun of the dead' though a comedy, is excellent. but i can not dwell enough that house of the dead belongs on the shelf AT ALL TIMES!!!!!
