Plot:
For months, Jake Gray (Jensen Ackles, TV's "Smallville") has been haunted by disturbing premonitions of murder and self-mutilation he can't explain - that is, until two high school friends Dakota (Dominique Swain, Lolita) and Conrad, introduce him to a mysterious online computer game called The Pathway. Suddenly, Jack's violent visions are brought to life as the game begins transforming his terrifying daydreams into gruesome reality. Hoping to escape his waking nightmare, Jake turns to Marisol (Shannyn Sossamon, A Knight's Tale), a seductive new friend who dabbles in the mystic occult. Instead, the two find themselves confronting even greater horrors, including the terrifying secrets of Jack's dark family past, in this chilling psychological thriller.

My Thoughts:
This is one I never seen before. Matter of fact I never even heard of it before I spotted it on the $3 rack at Big Lots. So I really wasn't sure what to expect going into this one. Just knew that the overview for the movie sounded interesting. Unfortunately I did get interrupted more then once during the movie... which I hate as it interrupts the flow of the movie. But it has a good story with some decent kills. I definitely enjoyed it. Though it is not the best horror movie I ever seen... I would say it is above average. I would say it is definitely worth taking a look at.

Seedpeople, a review by GSyren


TitleSeedpeople
Year1992
DirectorPeter Manoogian
StarsSam Hennings, Andrea Roth, Dane Witherspoon, Bernard Kates, Holly Fields
OverviewThe sleepy little town of Comet Valley has been invaded by plants from outer space. Intent on taking over the Earth, the space plants have found a way to pollinate humans, thus turning them into walking seed carriers.

Can the resourceful residents fight off the alien invaders, or is the planet doomed to become an alien garden?
My thoughtsFrom an idea by [executive producer] Charles Band. Well, let me guess what ideas good old Charlie had:
* We can take the story from Invasion of the Body Snatchers, add some monsters and a little blood, and nobody will see the connection. Fail!
* We let John Carl Buechler build the monsters. He'll do a terrific job of it. Fail!
* It'll be as good as the original. Heck, it'll be even better. Epic fail!

It's not the worst movie I've ever seen. But that's not saying much, because I've seen some real turkeys. But there's hardly anything good about it either. It's silly without being funny. Story, acting, directing, everything is just mediocre.
If you want to see Invasion of the Body Snatchers, see the original. Or even any of the official remakes. The '78 remake is almost as good as the '56 original. The '93 remake by Abel Ferrara is so-so, but hey, it's got a young Gabrielle Anwar. This one is pretty much just a waste of time.

Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd


17. SECONDS
Lex's dark plot to win Lois could mean Eternal amnesia for her... and disaster for the citizens of Metropolis.

My Thoughts:
This one is definitely better then the last one. I still don't care for this story line but it is improving.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5



18. FORGET ME NOT
Hoping to regain her memory, Lois enters a clinic where patients die at on alarmingly rapid rate.

My Thoughts:
This one I liked a little more the the previous few. I like where it is going with the amnesia story. At least the way they are getting between Lois and Clark now makes sense... somewhat.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5



19 OEDIPUS WRECKS
Back to work... and back to square one. As work partners only, Lois and Clark track down a mind-altering machine.

My Thoughts:
This is the last episode of the amnesia storyline... while not bad storyline I am glad it is over.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5



20. IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL
High school reeked - at least for one of Lois's old classmates, who hatches a diabolical plan for revenge.

My Thoughts:
This one is a silly but fun episode. I had to laugh when a shrunken Superman compared himself to Mighty Mouse. That is a cartoon I haven't thought of in many years!

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5



21. THROUGH A GLASS, DARKLY
The Krypton connection. Alien vistors with a secret objective create chaos for superman.

My Thoughts:
This is the first part of a 2 part seasons finale. And this is much... much better. Even though I was disappointed in this season for the most part... at least lit is ending on a very high note. This episode has a guest star of Justine Bateman... who played Malory on Family Ties.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5



22. BIG GIRLS DON'T FLY
Destiny. Krypton is in peril, but to save his home planet Superman must forsake friends, family - and Lois.

My Thoughts:
I really enjoyed the two-part season finale this season. Matter of fact after watching these I remembered when they originally aired it was this 2-part episode that gave me hope for season 4... as I felt the show went down hill so bad this season.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5





My Season 3 Thoughts:
While this season still had some decent episodes... for the most part I was disappointed. Too many storylines that I just didn't care for. But towards the end of the season it really picked back up and once again became the series that I knew and loved.
