Wolf Creek (2005)
Wanted to like it but slow
I wanted to enjoy this movie but it's too much of a slow burn for me. Knowing it's based on actual events is scary in itself but the execution for this is such a slow burn and having to wait until the very end in the last 20 minutes for anything terrifying to me just was not cutting it. The acting is okay, not too great. The setting is good for your typical back roads kind of deal if you enjoy Texas Chainsaw which I do; but at least with that film you get more of the gore horror factor in it and it's evenly spread out throughout the movie.
Slow burn horror movies aren't generally my thing because it will leave me with high expectations and it just seems like your typical average horror flick but you have to wait until the very end to get it.
Smile (2022)
Smile because it's worth it!
Thought the title was silly and the trailer but boy is this movie deep in story, character development and great jump scares timed perfectly! A mixture of other similar storylines of curses if you enjoy The Ring, The Grudge, It then you will enjoy this movie and follow along with the main character as she tries to figure out what in the world is going on! Was not disappointed with this movie one bit and hope that there will be a sequel and Kyle to come back! It's been a while since I had a good jump scare at the movies and this one had me and others giggling after we got scared. Creepy smiles for a great scary movie!
Don't Worry Darling (2022)
Great psychological thriller!
If you appreciate psychological thrillers and character development with a thriller suspense movie then this is for you. Florence is amazing in this! Idk why there is anything negative about this movie, only those that cannot appreciate the psychological side of this film and the slow unraveling of chaos. Such a in depth movie that keeps you guessing what outcome the end will have and it's something you least expect. Fans of the film Repo Men or The Twilight Zone will have a certain appreciation especially for this movie. Pine plays a great villain and Florence gives one of her best peformances!
The Invitation (2022)
Dark romance of Dracula's brides!
Fans of vampires and Dracula will enjoy this dark fantasy romance thriller. Thomas was a perfect casting choice! Any negative reviews are most likely from those expecting more murder and less story and character development. If you enjoyed the trailer you will enjoy the movie, enough said!
Orphan: First Kill (2022)
Really good action and suspense!
Enjoyed this movie the only thing that doesn't make sense is why they called it "First Kill" when it's not Esther's first kill. Lol lots of action and suspense though! If you enjoyed the first movie defiantly give this one a go!
Fall (2022)
Tense anxiety and great thrills!
8/10! If you enjoyed the movie The Shallows with Blake Lively this is essentially the same vibes but instead of out in the water with the shark you are 2,000 feet up high stranded with vultures. Great acting, story and feels with this one and a major shocker for me I didn't see coming. Had a good ending to, I def recommend it!
Prey (2022)
The biggest predator becomes the hunted!
Women get it done! Going from the "food chain" of hunters and the hunted to the big boss himself, a movie worthy for a sequel and good suspense! This movie def needs a watch for those that are fans of the franchise!
Mayor of Kingstown (2021)
Greatest drama series in a long time!
Wow! Just finished binging season 1 and cannot wait for season 2. Such an action packed thrilling drama that hits deep and keeps you watching non stop! Jeremy Renner is superb as always and great in these types of roles! The entire cast has done well and cannot wait to see what season 2 unfolds! I hope this show can get 5 seasons or more! So much to work with for all these characters and their development and wanting to dive more into Mike's past even!
Vinyan (2008)
Good to watch once in a while.
If you like Green Inferno, Death of Me any tropical messed up horror flicks this is good to watch well messed up. Point is if you lost your kid and it's been 6months don't go to the jungle thinking they are there.
The Father (2020)
This movie broke my freaking heart!
Do not watch if you lost a parent or grandparent in under a year. I lost my grandma in May, just viewed this end of July and it really messes with you. This is the saddest movie I have ever seen and Anthony Hopkins ugh superb. This is too real for me and really hits you with the feels and anxiety easily getting lost in this!
Resident Evil (2022)
Collective intakes from games and films!
Idk what anyone says but this was decent enough for me. I give it a 6/10 love that they brought in the croc from RE2, Tyrant's little cameo, the Moonlight Sonato and other callbacks. I just wish they spent the first season not going back and forth between flashback and present day as that story telling is overused in my opinion. I heard there is gonna be a second season and I hope they bring in the Spencer Mansipn somehow. People nowadays are too anal and go in with high expectations instead of trying to see new point of view of story telling. The clones threw me off for a hot min but then I think this is Umbrella it wouldn't be out of their world like they did with Alice in the movies. They took parts of games and movies I feel and Lance was amazing!
Brightburn (2019)
Better than I expected and just wow!
I was holding out on watching this because I was skeptical but after finishing the Boys s3 I decided why not. And glad I got this movie, oh the end credits and song choice haha. Def recommend for fans of The Boys and superhero's stuff!
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
BEST THOR MOVIE EVER! Don't listen to haters!
This was the best Thor imo above the rest and one of Marvel's top tiers! Natalie Portman was amazing and all the action, scenery, story and all just superb and Bale was amazing as always. Despite his funny memes when you watch the movie you feel for the guy and his role was one of the best "villains" so far unlike Thanos. 100000/10!!
The Princess (2022)
Lots of action and fast paced!
Don't know why there are so many negative reviews besides it being a predictable movie. But if you love action and a fast paced movie with lots of killings and girls this is a movie you should defiantly give a watch.
Just wish the ending was different only because I'm a sucker for Dominic Cooper and he plays amazing bad guy in this!
The Black Phone (2021)
The new trio of horror!
I love that Scott Derrikson, Ethan Hawke and James Ransone worked together with this colab please keep it going! And to do a film based off of Stephen King's son, Joe Hill's short story - yes please! Keep them coming! Love the call backs to Sinister and a nod to It!
Hidden (2015)
Great build up, shocking twist!
This was so suspenseful, slowly building up and letting you feel for this family and wow the ending twist did not see that coming one bit haha especially the last line of the movie just, wow! I love this and highly recommend for those into the end of the world zombie monster with a twist kinda movie!
Once Upon a Time (2011)
Should have stopped at season 6.
I really don't like when shows have a good ending then they throw in something last minute to mess it all up like Supernatural did. Season 7 is that mess up. Love the series otherwise. Couldn't stomach finishing the first episode of season 7 as it seems like a reboot to what they just finished but with Henry Mills as Emma.
The show is steadily consistent otherwise, a few slow burns but nothing like all other shows have from time to time. Just my opinion stop at season 6 and all is good!
The Stand (2020)
Alexander made the show!
I enjoyed this, wish there were more episodes and or a second season how the show ended on a cliffhanger. I have yet to read the book but I know they could have done more. Regardless, Stephen King himself and I agree Alexander Skarsgard as Randall Flagg was amazing and thus I wish Alex would come back to do more in the future if possible! His performance especially for fans of his is a must see!
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)
Delivered on what the fans have been wanting!
Great chaos and madness all around, well casted and great cameos and bringing back the Sam Raimi! Couldn't have asked for a better sequel! Scarlet Witch is here and don't mess with her! Perfect amount of speed and story telling and really don't have anything negative to say except for the waste of the second post credit scene so just watch the first post credit scene and you are good to go!
The Vampire Diaries (2009)
Lots of thrills and tears, super entertaining!
Loved this show, steady throughout has great episodes, great casting and ends well also, had me super emotional throughout what all these characters go through. Highly recommend watching it! I never got to finish it a few years back but finally binged it this past year and glad I did.
The Northman (2022)
Brilliant and powerful!
Wonderful cast and powerful performances with captivating imagery and tons of violence and slaying. Strong story throughout and very well paced! Claes Bang and Alexander did amazing!
Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore (2022)
Great performance by Mads!
Was so upset they didn't keep Johnny Depp but at least they recasted him with someone worthy Mr. Mads Mikkelsen and his performance was stunning as always! Solid third installment though wish there was more about Dumbledore everything was sort of brushed over quickly, would have been more efficient if it was a two-part film.
Ambulance (2022)
Great action! Bay and Gyllenhaal never disappoint!
Lots of action and lots of tense scenes throughout, Jake is amazing as always and Michael Bay delivers on what he always does! Love bank robberies and watching Jake Gyllenhaal in action then go see this movie!
Morbius (2022)
Loved it! Way better than Venom 2!
Idk why this movie got so much hate, must not be true Marvel fans and idk why people be hating on Jared he was amazing and screams vampire! Loved this movie to see it for yourselves! If you love Marvel and vampires this is the movie!
Dracula (2020)
Loved every bit of this!
Wish it had lasted longer and did more, for only 3 episodes though feature length they did cover and do well with keeping the story slow, steady and fast at the same time. I just wish it lasted longer as I want more and the performance of Claus was amazing!
