See No Evil 2, 2014 – ★★
Marginally better than the first one. Everyone just needs to agree to stop trying to make Jacob Goodnight happen.
See No Evil, 2006 – ★★
Bottom of the barrel stuff here. This was filmed during the heyday of the Torture Porn craze and I can’t believe how tame this is.
Ninja Busters, 1984 – ★★
Not quite funny or bad enough to put on the same level as a Samurai Cop or Dangerous Men. Still worth checking out for the great chemistry of the two main characters.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre, 2022 – ★★★
Another in a long line of movies to try to recapture the magic of the original. I just don’t think there’s enough there to keep trying. Also trying to address school shootings in a slasher movie probably isn’t the greatest idea.
Scream, 2022 – ★★★
I found a lot to like in this “requel” even though I’m not a huge fan of any of the original movies.
Zone 414, 2021 – ★
What if the androids in Blade Runner were even more depressed? Guy Pearce deserves way better than this.
Dashcam, 2021 – ★★
I was totally into this one until the protagonist left his apartment. I kind of lost the thread of what was happening and didn’t really care to fix that.
Megan Is Missing, 2011 – ★★★
Kind of run of the mill screen life movie until you hit the very effective and unsettling last 20 minutes.
Animal, 2014 – ★★
Pretty standard monster attacking people in a cabin movie. I did appreciate the monster design and the fact that the end took place outside in daylight.
Black Roses, 1988 – ★★★
Killer 80s metal soundtrack, creative effects, and 30 year olds playing high school students. A perfect movie for The Last Drive-In.
