Mirror Mirror, a review by addicted2dvd

Title: Mirror Mirror
Movie Count: 62
TV Ep Count: 29
Other  Count: 2
Time Started: 9:45am
Plot:
A shy teenager ('Rainbow Harvest') moves to a new town and quickly becomes the most unpopular girl in high school. But when she discovers a mysterious mirror, her tormentors begin to meet with a horrifying series of 'accidents'. 'Karen Black', 'Charlie Spradling', 'William Sanderson' and 'Ricky Paull Goldin' co-star in this surprising hit chiller that started it all.

My Thoughts:
I decided to watch this one because I felt like another movie with Karen Black. It is the first of 4 movies in the "Mirror Mirror" franchise. I was lucky enough to find the entire collection in a boxset (still sealed) for only $5 on Amazon Market Place a while back. The only one in this set I ever seen before is the first one. I feel that this one is a pretty good movie... definitely not the best I ever seen... but not a waste of time to watch either. Unfortunately this DVD has no extras what so every. Matter of fact... when you pop in the DVD it goes straight to the movie. It doesn't even bother bringing you to the menu first. This is more of an observation then a complaint... after all... I can't complain considering I only spent $1.25 per movie.

I just finished watching this one with my brother. It has been many years since I saw this movie. I actually forgot how much I enjoyed it! Sure there was some slow scenes in it... but even they kept me interested in the story. My mind didn't drift at all during the film. If there was anything I would have liked to have seen differently it is how the film ended. While I understand why it ended the way it did... and even enjoyed the way it ended.... I think I would have preferred it to end the opposite way. But if it did... it would have changed the entire second movie. We enjoyed watching this one so much this morning that as soon as it was over... my brother and I popped in the second film in the series. I highly recommend it!

Tom's Random Star Trek Reviews, a review by Tom

Star Trek: Voyager
1.06 Eye of the Needle
Writer: Bill Dial (Screenwriter), Jeri Taylor (Screenwriter), Hilary J. Bader (Original Material By)
Director: Winrich Kolbe
Cast: Kate Mulgrew (Captain Kathryn Janeway), Robert Beltran (Commander Chakotay), Roxann Biggs-Dawson (Lieutenant B'Elanna Torres), Jennifer Lien (Kes), Robert Duncan McNeill (Lieutenant Tom Paris), Ethan Phillips (Neelix), Robert Picardo (The Doctor), Tim Russ (Lieutenant Tuvok), Garrett Wang (Ensign Harry Kim), Vaughn Armstrong (Telek R'Mor), Tom Virtue (Lt. Walter Baxter)

I always enjoyed this episode. Although because it came early in the series, the ending is no surprise. There is no doubt that the wormhole they have found will have catch and that the crew will not have found a way home just yet.
