Re: We Are What We Are

One of the rare occasions where a remake actually improves the original. Beautifully shot and good characters you actually care for. Jim Mickle has done a fantastic job with the material and this one is already earmarked to go into the collection upon release.
8/10

Re: Odd Thomas

Had low expectations going into this one, but have to admit i was pleasantly surprised. Having the advantage of being based on a great book it really translated to the screen well. Well paced and nicely built towards the pay off. A great way to spend a bank holiday afternoon. And even though i knew ...

Re: Frankenstein's Army

Great movie and some superbly imagined monsters. Maybe took a little to long to bear its teeth but once it did..... My only issue was the sound!! As already mentioned elsewhere i struggled to make out any of the dialogue, made even worse with the characters accents. Was it just me or do i need to sp...

Re: Maniac

After a really substandard 4 days it's the two films I was really sceptical about ( this and sinister ) that have stood head and shoulders above the rest. Maybe low expectations reap maximum rewards.
Great remake with a pumping score. At last a grimy adult horror movie. Who'd have thought!! :D

Better off as a hour long, forgettable FX channel segment. Gave me the lie in I needed :D

Re: Tulpa

Was this intentionally supposed to be this funny?? I hope to god it was, if not it must of been the most crushing 90 minutes of the directors life. Nice visuals and soundtrack though :D Ultimately really really disappointing as the first 5 minutes ( previewed at previous FF event ) are really impres...

Re: Berberian Sound Studio

After such a great introduction, what a massive let down. Just couldn't wrap my tiny mind around this one :(

Re: Under The Bed

Sorry guys but this was absolutely appalling. The only good thing about this movie was taking the piss out of it when it finished.

Under the bed, I wish I'd stayed in bed!!!!

Re: Deadheads

Awful awful film :(

Not one single character in the movie was in in anyway indeering to me and 'cheese' must rank as one of the most pointless, humourless and ultimatly annoying on-screen characters ever. By far the worst film of the festival ( closely followed by the wicker tree!!).
