I didn't hate it but I didn't love it...
30 May 2023
This had a lot of potential and really all it needed was a bit more backstory for what's hunting them. The acting is great, emotions run high but it's well done and not over the top, believable storyline of these two estranged brothers, even the music was pretty good. But at the same time there wasn't enough story, and yet the ending was good. The whole thing just makes me wanna shrug and go welp there are far worse horror movies out there.

Not gonna lie I was hoping this would turn out to be a Wendigo type story. And not just because the actress who played Donna in Supernatural is in this movie lol. It had the whole setup for it too-minus the cannibalism.

Case 39 (2009)
6/10
It was good but alternate ending would've been better
12 May 2023
Warning: Spoilers
This was a great movie, tons of suspense and build up, even some back story for Emily and her mother but not too much so you can focus on the main story. It's obvious that Lilith is of course the first demon Lilith as seen in the Bible. But according to well anything written about her she's extremely powerful and I find it hard to believe that drowning her is what stops her. There is no cliffhanger or post credit scene showing she's alive and well and with another family.

Apparently that was the original ending and test audiences didn't like it. Movies don't always have to have a cookie cutter ending and this one shouldn't have had one. The entire movie was fantastic before those last few minutes. It's hard to rate this because yes the ending was terrible but everything else was great-despite no research as to what Lilith might be.

If it was that easy to kill Lucifer's first demon the Winchesters wouldn't have had a show lol. I wanted to give it 5 stars but I just couldn't since only the last few minutes were bad.

I don't think people are ready for this movie
19 February 2023
I'll admit I avoided this movie after I heard viewers were mad opening weekend. But I finally saw it and I think people just missed the point entirely. Not all slashers are going to be a murder spree. Some need a plot and a good one-not like the trash the Rob Zombie tried making. Something with depth, fear, and of course the boogeyman. Halloween II (the real one) was one of my favorites for the psychological fear of being trapped and stalked and you can't escape. This movie expanded on that and more. I don't want to give any spoilers but this was a great movie and frankly I hope they don't make anymore.

Mako (2021)
1/10
One of the worst shark movies I've seen
14 January 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Where to begin? There are about 3 or 4 plots going on and none of them are any good. The beginning was actually somewhat interesting but kept showing shots fishermen chunking the water and either trying to catch big fish or a shark. Spoiler they die. Another spoiler/annoyance is that they keep using great white sharks. You see a Mako once during the fishing scene alongside a great white. Mako's travel all over the oceans typically staying in warm waters where great whites typically stay in colder waters and are rarely spotted in the Red Sea. On top of all that Makos don't attack or kill humans despite being aggressive. 9 total deaths have been recorded since practically ancient times (ok not that long ago but like 1500s according to google).

The biggest offensive to not knowing ANYTHING about sharks? About 50 some minutes in they show a shark attempt to attack Graham but couldn't get far being in the window of a ship. It doesn't get her and she swims away. Somehow in the next shot the shark backs out and is swimming free. What's wrong with this? SHARKS CANT SWIM BACKWARDS!!!! You can even see one not swim backwards in The Little Mermaid when Ariel traps it lol.

Those are just the facts that they already got wrong that p*** me off. If you love sharks and shark related movies don't watch this awful movie. If you love movies with several dramatic unnecessary plot points with a shark thrown in the mix for no reason then you'll love this train wreck.

I also intentionally wanted to watch a foreign movie with subtitles and for literally no reason they switch to speaking in English-I'm not talking about the award show or a word here and there. They legitimately start speaking English for no reason and with no explanation.

These actors as divers are not believable, all of their panicking would've made them use up their air much faster. Apparently they're also "trapped" in this boat, not sure how with broken windows all around them. They have the two brothers dependent on each other but then suddenly the one says you have to find your own way out bye. What kind of awful dialogue is that? Nobody even those scared, would ever say that especially to their own brother. And really how does that help your crew by telling someone they each have to find a way out.

We don't even find out what happened when they got back on the ship with the 5th or so side story. All of this was just awful.

The Lie (2018)
8/10
A LOT OF SPOILERS! It was entertaining and annoying
13 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I've always wondered what my mom would really do if I killed someone. She said she'd help me cover it up and bury the body not turn me in.

DON'T READ PAST THIS IT IS END OF THE MOVIE SPOLIERS!!!!

Which is exactly what should've happened here. If they had been sensible parents looking at their daughter like a psycho they would've found out she was pranking everyone. That twist was kind of annoying.

I did like Joey King flying off the handle all the time. Despite what some viewers have said about it. Just because your teens don't do that doesn't mean all teens are well adjusted lol. I found her performance not only believable but also showing signs of a potential psycho in the making. It makes you think she might've been killing small animals as a child.

And the whole premise of you guys don't pay attention to me fits in with her erratic and out of control behavior. Parents can be real a-holes and selfish when it comes to divorce and don't actually pay enough attention. Thankfully my mom did so I didn't pretend to kill my friends for attention lol.

The whole thing was a messed up parent trap. Moral of the story turn your kids in when they break the law. Who knows maybe they're just trying to prank you lol.

Had potential...
23 August 2022
This whole movie had me thinking I missed a scene or two. At one point I thought maybe it was a sequel to something. The idea is there but there are too many plot holes and not enough back story answered. And what does get answered is easily guessed. Maybe if they remake this with a better script it would be a decent horror movie.

Hostel: Part III (2011 Video)
1/10
Contains a spoiler to save you time...pathetic sequel!
21 September 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I wish I could give this movie zero stars. I knew it wasn't Eli Roth's movie but they could've tried a little. Every single thing is so predictable and all over a girl really? Such a weak storyline, I'm gonna kill you so I can have your fiancé. Because of course women are weak and would go right to the playboy when her fiancé is killed-please spare me. I hope they lost so much money on this trash that sequels in the future are put through a rigorous process to be made so we don't waste our time and money. Honestly I wish all the characters had died in the end.

Speak (2004)
10/10
Heartbreaking but please watch this movie
12 January 2021
This was an amazing movie and I still don't understand why everyone hates on Kristen Stewart. She was amazing in this movie, everyone is and you will cry at least a little. Between being such a young teenager and the emotions women experience at any age mix that with a new school year loosing and gaining friends-it's a lot. This movie was well written, acted, directed, and scored. If you've never experienced trauma or have I think this a good movie to watch. You'll either see how it can be for the victim or relate to it yourself.

Accurate and wonderful

Willem Dafoe is brilliant as always. This movie is not only accurate and sweet but it's still a movie you can watch with the kids.

One of the worst sequels ever
26 November 2020
This sequel was absolutely unnecessary and just terrible. Stick to the first one where the creepiness is about a man not just the doll. The original had a much better script. They could've made this movie about the doll being possessed by Hillshire's son after he was killed. But no they tried making this movie like Christine whose origins are unknown. But even in the movie version of Christine we see it kill the factory worker as the first victim not much back story but better than just seeing newspaper headlines saying the same thing over and over again. There was no explanation or point of origin. This whole movie was useless as a sequel or even a stand alone movie.

Welcome Home (I) (2018)
10/10
It's better than you think
5 November 2020
This movie was actually really good. Sure some lines could've been written better but the ending is totally worth it. People are unnecessarily harsh in their critique. Watch it if you want a good thriller that won't waste your time and isn't long.

Still a great show!
22 October 2020
Great episode kinda all over the place but I liked it! My favorite part was the subtle nod to the British sketch show That Mitchell and Webb look.

Enemy Lines (2020)
10/10
I liked it!
29 April 2020
I thought it was great! If you're expecting some big flashy gore fest of a war movie then move along. Not all war stories are going to be a bloodbath with screaming and swearing. If you want a movie with a good plot and action then watch this. If you want a movie like Overlord then go watch that garbage.
