Having read the outline in the Frightfest brochure I was really looking forward to this movie - however having seen it I have to say I was disappointed by it. The big problem for me was the main character Mason. "Mason is a nervy, geeky, chap" ... as much as I tried to see this I just coul...

An extremely silly movie but I really liked it. I'm left with bizarre flash backs to Ivan the terrible prancing around the corridors wild eyes and covered in blood ... bit of a Rik Mayall look about the eyes ...and bizarrely flicking the switch to leash one of his man-traps all to the accompanyment ...

Not a fan of the first so was a bit wary of a sequel to it. However all those doubts went away after Kimberley Caldwell's swift dispatching. Agree with the Klingon comment below - kinda melted redneck ones. played for gory laughs and it really worked - Henry Rollins was great and I did like the &quo...

Agree with Jekyll on the characters. Excellent use of the location and the end song "all my friends are dead" was a fun touch. Well worth watching.

Enjoyed this one - a bit slow moving but subtly done. A very creepy little kid, all that lets give teddy and the guinea pig a good passage to the afterlife ala the Egyptians - watch out Uncle Ned.

Good all round but Transmission 2 was the stand out best part.

The thing that came to mind immediately was isnt this a bit like Steven King's Cell - but I think the book came out later?

Weak little french girl morphs into Rambo and offs three rednecks in a manner they pretty much deserve - much better than I thought it was going to be. Ohhh that jagged bottlecap!

Probably the most truly horrible (in terms of subject matter) films I've ever seen. Very difficult to watch - and I totally understand why its reduced many viewers to tears - but at the same time time compelling. The fact that its based on the true story of the 1965 Sylvia Likens torture murder make...

Uwe Boll - OK I havent seen many of his movies before and I'm still in the dark as to why the guy seems to have more venom directed at him than a mass murderer. Given this bad press I was weighing up whether or not to see either movie but I'm glad I did. He had the balls to stand up and take whateve...

Didnt really push any buttons for me - was OK but nothing really original and had me clockwatching. The only movie I walked out of before the end and that doesnt happen often.
