What was the point in the juvy kids? I don't even remember what happened to them - are we meant to believe they managed to escape the detention center filled with zombies?

Mindy was one of the dumbest characters I think I have ever seen in a horror movie.

Tilda Swinton was great but incredibly underused and the alien ship taking her made me cringe, could imagine the script writer writing it and thinking how quirky they were too.

The hardware store stand off was moronic. We get told this guy (I love Danny Glover but ouch) had owned the store for YEARS but never thought to reinforce the back exit to his store? Come on now.

The 'zombies go back to what they remember' crap was forced down the viewers throat so heavily, and I get that, Dawn of the Dead did it beautifully showing our consumerism, this movie hammered it home but they did it SO badly. So zombies return to what they know? Okay...why did they overrun the motel? The owner literally said it was nor busy but the zombies went there? Plus...them Zelda was beamed up why were there zombies standing in a field?

Anyways yeah I watch so much horror but passed this initially in theaters because I don't like Adam Driver and it has to be one of the worst zombie comedy's I have ever had to suffer through.

1/10

…I have to say that I’m most definitely not a huge horror/zombie fan so it’s probably just the right ‘hardcore’ for me….eeeek….but yeah, I understand…looking at some reviews, I think that your thoughts align mostly with others and I’m probably a minority of one who liked it……

[Ammi]

…The Devil Below….and …The Intruder….

…they were both not bad movies but not really outstanding in any way, though… just Sunday evening viewing and I would probably say around 6/10 for both…

I don't really bother with reviews as such, I thought it was well regarded. Sorry to have a rant under your post Ammi. I just honestly hated it haha

Willy's Wonderland

A guy damages his car running over a spike strip and cannot afford the repair bill, a local businessman offers to pay for the repairs in exchange for the man cleaning out an abandoned family restaurant called Willy's Wonderland. But Willy's has an ominous past...

I was looking forward to this and I found it just okay really. Nothing really stood out for me to mention it being good or bad. Nicholas Cage stars and doesn't speak a single word iirc.

The deaths are meh and mostly bloodless and the 'killer' is far from scary. I think the highlight was probably Beth Grant as the Sheriff or the actress playing the character of Liv. Everyone else felt like cannon fodder.

[Niamh.]

Willy's wonderland was so bad it was almost good ...............almost

Sabotage (2014)

starring Arnold Schwarzenegger


i personally got a bit of a Usual Suspects/Italian Job sort of vibe around this, a group of DEA special agents

Spoiler:

during a raid on a drug cartel, they keep 10 million for themselves only to find the money being taken by someone else and they get killed one by one, so they have to find out who did it

based on Agatha Christie novel ''and then there were none''


very enjoyable movie 8.5/10

Daniel (2019)

The Danish Hostage captured in 2013
held by ISIS.

Under the Evil Control of the British Muslim
Later USA James Foley is added to the Prisoners.
Well made Movie

10 Outta 10

[Nicky91]

last night me and my dad watched Assassin's Creed

bit weird movie, but very well done made, good acting either, i love Marion Cotillard, and i always love Jeremy Irons too

Michael Fassbender is such a great and diverse actor too not a role i dislike from him yet



8.5/10

[Ammi]

…Gone Baby Gone….just a really seedy and dark and murky world of a young child with no safeguarding at all…a world that too many children are sadly born into…but also some smart twists and turns etc with a great cast…Michelle Monaghan is becoming a huge favourite actress……Amy Maddison, Morgan Freeman, Ed Harris all wonderfully cast as well……

[Livia]

Casablanca. It was on TV yesterday... what a treat.

10/10

[Ammi]

…The Invitation……this was such a powerful movie and so incredibly absorbing, incredibly sad and emotionally traumatic in so many ways and ….I’m not sure what else to say because I won’t give any plot away obviously….I don’t know how to ‘rate’ it, I guess it would be classed as horror genre…

I've had a horror day

Aquaslash



A graduating class organize an 80's themed party at a local Warter Park. Things quickly go terribly wrong.

Spoiler:

This had so much potential, it was campy and fun and a lot of the characters are either likeable or interesting enough. Sadly it was a build up for nothing, you get a few deaths but none are water related which was a shame and then there is one scene where the killer sabotages a water slide that's pretty gnarly but that's it. You just watch people hurtling down a slide in slo mo for a good 20 minutes. Pretty poor.

3/10

Great White



A pair of seaplane operators along with their passengers take a flight to picturesque Hell's Reef. Upon landing they find a corpse that has washed up after a suspected shark attack. Attempting to rescue any Survivors they find themselves at odds with a giant great white shark.

Spoiler:

This was actually so good, easily the best shark movie in years. The whole cast did an amazing job and I really cared about most of the main group but especially Kaz (Katrina Bowden) The shark CGI is very good too thankfully.

8/10

The Wolf of Snow Hollow



A small Utah town is terrorized by a werewolf as a sheriff's deputy begins to break down from the stress of investigating the series of brutal murders in his sleepy ski community.

Favourite horror of 2020 hands down. Great script, acting and gore.

9/10

Aquaslash sounds like someone did a sh*t in the pool.

Pride, and it was ****ing magic.

[ThomasC]

Official Secrets on Netflix.

A worker exposes that the US were deliberately trying to start and cause a war in Iraq.

It was very slow. I fell asleep

[Ammi]

…Fear Street Part 1: 1994….…. Shadyside, killer capital of the USA..a Stranger Things slashertime edition…slasher type movies really aren’t my thing at all and there were bits that I didn’t watch in the detail but this was soooo deliciously throwback to so many movies, I loved it, it was like a crazy Halloween night of classics released in one cauldron….I can’t wait to see how the trilogy all connects with the other two parts…a brutal and slashing but fun 8/10….

The Fast and the Furious 9 - this one was so far fetched they even took the piss out of themselves in it

It's a very uplifting film.

We've come on a long way.

Yeah pretty much, we only went to see it because we had a couple of hours to kill, it was raining and there was nothing else on at the time

Have you seen Into the heights?
A great musical.

[Ammi]

…Nocturne…really enjoyed this twin sibling rivalry/competitiveness and the gruelling life devotion to becoming great musicians …maybe not quite as harrowing as Whiplash but very similar in vibe…and a twins version, so another layer to the story…I’m not quite sure that it quite reached the heights of ‘horror’ though and I think that it was meant to…but it was quite intense and enjoyable for a rainy Sunday afternoon….7/10…
