Opening credit

Right after the opening we see Bobby (White) mowing the grass while his half-sister relax at the pool. He ends his work and go to his room, but his half-sister follow him, tease him and tell him that his stepfather want to see him. He go and his stepfather doesn't like how he has done is job at all.


Hit me with your best shot

Later everyone ate his supper and like nobody is angry, Bobby's half-sister make some reference not so subtle to her father about Bobby's drug.


Happy together

His father force him to go search it. But Bobby realize that his familly is not so great after all and he left.

If you leave

After some wandering in the night Bobby decide to stop at a bar and he's get noticed  by a costumer (an old man who flirt with him). Not knowing how to react (Bobby isn't really brilliant), but a biker save him and they make the party together.


Dont talk to stranger

They go to the biker home and they share a beer, so all Bobby's problem are over... Not really, since the biker call his three friends (one of them look like Tom Savini, but I don't think it's him) and they all go for a funny car ride. Except for Bobby, since they rape him (don't worry it's not graphic, it's  almost funny). After that they dump him the ditch.


Whatcha do to my body

From there it's better for Bobby. A satanic sect take charge of him and while he recover the satanist does their usual thing : praying Lucifer, make some human sacrifice, ...


Come to the sabbath

Do you really think that all will be going good for Bobby? The real master was gone but now his back and he is not happy. Like he said : Bobby his weak because he was rape, he is an homosexual because of that and the Devil doesn't like these peoples (this is not what I hear usually, but I'm not a satanist).


Somebody's Watching Me

Bobby escape and for 20 minutes we will see him running in the wood only in is underwear.

This is especially for the lady

He will escape and get his revenge on his familly and the rapist. The way he deal with that will make Simon happy and he will became a member of the sect.


Heroes

First thing first this movie shout anti-homosexual agenda (the devil don't like them, they are weak, they are victims,...), but for almost half the movie Bobby is in underwear running or just showing off. So colour me confuse, who is the public of this???

The acting is weak to be polite, no one had did something before or after that (except for Stephen White who have made 2 other films). I like this film, he is so bad and awfull that you laugh almost from the beginning to the end.

Because of this movie everytime I think that I've a bad day, I say to myself : It could be worse think at Bobby's day. After I feel better
 
Rating :

P.S : All the image title have one thing in common, do you see it?

Spotlight, a review by Antares

Spotlight (2015) 88/100 - I thought I'd never utter or type these words...I've lost my love for films. I've spent a lot of money amassing a large collection of DVDs, which mostly sit in folders, unwatched. Over the last few years, I've bemoaned the fact that a majority of the films coming out of Hollywood are complete crap. A couple of nights ago, I was searching through the Redbox website, and after meandering throughout all the cinemuck, saw Spotlight. I've been pretty much out of the loop as to what's been coming out over the last year, but I knew that this had won the Oscar for Best Picture. I grew up in Massachusetts during the time frame of these atrocities and having attended Catholic schools for 12 years, thought this film might be the one that restores the fire in the dying embers of my film flame... it did. I love a good "journalist investigation" film and this has to rank up there with some of the best. After I finished the film, I went on Criticker and read some of the reviews there. I was surprised to see so many people trashing it, from what I felt, was a misunderstanding of what the film was made for. It's purpose wasn't to make a groundbreaking, technical masterpiece, nor was it made to stir up the crimes of the Catholic church. It was made to show how important a Free Press is to OUR freedom and security. We live in a world where everything is being crammed into either a 15 second sound bite or a 140 character Tweet. It's all disposable information and that's what the corporations, who have taken over our country want. If it's disposable, it's also desensitizing and an apathetic and passive populace is easy prey.

Teal = Masterpiece
Dark Green = Classic or someday will be
Lime Green = A good, entertaining film
Orange = Average
Red = Cinemuck
Brown = The color of crap, which this film is

Another season of one of my favorite sitcoms watched. This is the season that Debbe Dunning joins the cast as the new Tool Time, Heidi. Which is one thing I was thrilled to see... as I always liked her better then Pamela Anderson from the first two seasons. This is yet another season filled with very good episodes chock-full of laugh out loud moments. I enjoyed every moment of it... and can't wait till I get the chance to add the next season to my collection.
