The Woman, 2011

Very odd yet compelling sequel to The Offspring. Actress Pollyanna McIntosh is so good. Director Lucky McKee did it again. I loved this movie.

Offspring, 2009

Just your standard home invasion by a feral family kind of movie. I just wanted to watch it to get some background for Lucky McKee‘s new movie.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes, 2011

Being a huge fan of the originals, I was so happy that this prequel/remake made me totally forget about that horrendous Tim Burton movie.

Your Highness, 2011

Just as I hoped, a really funny mashup of stoner comedy and 1980s cheesy fantasy movies. I will be adding this one to the collection for sure.

Scream 4, 2011

Never a big fan of the first 3 movies. I think they should have just started over rather than continuing on with the original cast.

The Ward, 2010

I’ve been waiting 10 years for John Carpenter to return to feature films, too bad the script he chose just so completely unoriginal.

Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, 2010

A horror movie that unfolds like an episode of Three’s Company where everything is just one big misunderstanding. Had some funny death scenes.

Insidious, 2010

Pretty effective and creepy Pg-13 horror movie. Would have probably been a lot of fun to see with a full theater.

Paul, 2011

I really wanted to like it, but it was kind of lame. I liked it more than HOT FUZZ, but not nearly as much as SHAUN OF THE DEAD.

Stake Land, 2010

Vampire apocalypse as an art house drama. It completely blew me away. Top notch baddassery from star and co-writer Nick Damici.

X-Men: First Class, 2011

Recaptured the fun of the first 2 movies. Fassbender completely ruled as Magneto. Also had the best use of the F-word I’ve ever seen.

Hobo with a Shotgun, 2011

Real fun and bloody homage to the grindhouse movies of the 1970s. Rutger Hauer was born to play this role. And did I mention the blood?

Amer, 2009

Incredibly interesting throwback to the 1970s giallo films of Dario Argento. I’m sure I’ll be watching this movie many more times very soon.
