Body Bags, a review by addicted2dvd
Stars: John Carpenter as Coroner Tom Arnold as Man #1 Tobe Hooper as Man #2 Robert Carradine as Bill Alex Datcher as Anne Stacy Keach as Richard Sheena Easton as Megan Mark Hamill as Brent Twiggy as Cathy Plot:Extras:
My Thoughts: This is a TV movie that originally aired on ShowtimeI haven't seen this one since it originally aired over 20 years ago. Going into this one all I really really remembered is I enjoyed it quite a bit. While I didn't enjoy it quite as much as I remembered... I still enjoyed it quite a bit and glad I finally have it in my collection. The first of the stories is by far my favorite. The other two... while not as good... are still rather enjoyable.This film is worth the hour and a half you need to put in to watch it. But it is not the best anthology horror I have seen.

Stars: Jung-ah Yum as Yeo Mi-ok Se-yeong Lee as Ko Mi-nam Ji-hun Lee as Kwon Sang-choon Hie-bong Byeon as Headmaster Seung-won Cha as Kim Bong-du (Cameo) Plot: Since a young and gorgeous primary school teacher, Mi-ok's work ethic is lousy, and her attitude towards managing her school matters is draconian, her colleagues and students do not get along with her at all. A new semester is coming up soon, and student, Mi-nam, just gets transferred to Mi-ok's primary school. Being a new student at the school, Mi-nam is isolated by her classmates. She thinks that she can turn to Mi-ok whenever she needs to share with someone, but Mi-ok ignores her and gives her the cold shoulder. On the contrary, Mi-ok treats the new arts teacher, Sang-min differently and cares about him a lot. Therefore, Mi-nam and Mi-ok become hostile and rude to each other. What's more, Mi-nam plans to unmask Mi-ok's bad behaviour and characters in front of Sang-min...... Extras: My Thoughts: Surprisingly heart-felt movie. I expected a simple movie about some funny rivalry between teacher and student. But it dealt with more than that. It deals with the personal issues of both and why the rivalry goes as far as it did.Rating: (From Tom's Random Reviews on September 24th, 2010) Death Note anime/manga/movies comparison, a review by Tom02. Confrontation The public names the person (Light), who is responsible for the many deaths of criminals, "Kira" (coming from how Japanese pronounce the English word "Killer"). The police contracts the mysterious detective L to investigate the strange deaths. Nobody has ever seen L, nor does anyone know his real name. L has already deduced, that the deaths are murder by a person, who does not even need to be in contact with the victim. With tricking Kira, he already proves this in this episode and also that Kira is living in the Kanto region (Tokyo area). L challenges Kira, and the great cat and mouse game begins. Manga: In the manga, the trap and challenge by L comes first (chapter 2), then Light helps his sister with her homework (chapter 3) and then he builds the booby trap (chapter 4). My comparison project already proofs to be getting hard. Although the anime stays close to the manga, it already shows, that it switches a lot of stuff around. In manga chapters 2-4 there are already a lot of other important things happening, which are not touched upon by the anime yet. Movies: The first movie covers the complete trap for Kira set by L. The movie omits the booby trap Light is building to hide the Death Note, which is not really essential to the plot. (From Death Note anime/manga/movies comparison on February 1st, 2009) |
