Brightburn, a review by addicted2dvd
Stars: Elizabeth Banks (1974) as Tori Breyer David Denman as Kyle Breyer Jackson A. Dunn as Brandon Bryer Abraham Clinkscales as Royce Christian Finlayson as Fauxhawk Plot: What if a child from another world crash-landed on Earth, but instead of becoming a hero to mankind, he proved to be something far more sinister? With Brightburn, the visionary filmmaker of Guardians of the Galaxy and Slither presents a startling, subversive take on a radical new genre: superhero horror. Extras:
My Thoughts: A film that puts two of my favorite genres together.... horror and superhero films. I liked it quite a bit... it is definitely a fun watch. and had some pretty cool kills in it as well. I am happy with the way they ended it as well. There are a couple names here I recognized but not all that familiar with. But they all did a fine job. For those that are bothered by it there is a nice amount of gore in this film. Especially if you have a problem with anything dealing with the eyeball one scene may be a bit hard to watch. Overall, I had a great time watching this one. highly recommended. Rating: (From Horror/Halloween Marathon 2023 on September 19th, 2023) 5 Dolls for an August Moon, a review by JimmyMOVIE / DVD INFO: Title: 5 Dolls for an August Moon (1970) Genre: Murder Mystery Director: Mario Bava Rating: Unrated Length: 1h21 Video: Widescreen Audio: Italian Subtitles: English Stars:Plot: Bava's ultra-mod 1970 murder mystery remains one of the most critically divisive and little-seen films of his career. Bava imbues the derivative script with a sly streak of black humor and a steady stream of eye-popping visuals, including a va-va-voom performance by giallo goddess Edwige Fenech. Never released theatrically in America, it has since become a favorite of Bava fans worldwide. My Thoughts: Now that's more what I like, a well done sexy Giallo that isn't the most brutal one but certainly complicated. What we have is essentially is murders that happen in a close room (ok it's an island, but this is mostly the same) and we know that the murderer is one of the 10 protagonists. Evidently you will make a lot wrong guess before knowing who is the killer and this is the essence of a good Giallo, a genre where the Italians are the masters. The end was a surprise for me the first time and I've appreciated it and I've seen the hints that explain it (I've seen the movie 3 times it sure help). Great performance from Howard Ross, Maurice Poli (wait to see him in Kidnapped(From Mario Bava marathon on July 5th, 2009) Tom's TV Pilots marathon, a review by Tom
Plot: They look like us. They act like us. For centuries vampires have co-existed with humans. Until now. Now mankind has the ability to destroy itself, and the vampires need to take control of their threatened food source. CIB, an elite government force has been formed to combat the threat. But when eternal life is offered, no-one is beyond temptation... Ultraviolet Season 1.01 Habeas Corpus Writer: Joe Ahearne (Writer) Director: Joe Ahearne Cast: Jack Davenport (D.S. Michael Colefield), Susannah Harker (Dr. Angie March), Idris Elba (Vaughan Rice), Philip Quast (Father Pearse J. Harman), Stephen Moyer (Jack), Colette Brown (Kirsty), Fiona Dolman (Frances), Ronnie Letham (Pollard), Marc Bolton (Carter), John Ashton (D S Ferman), Lara J. West (Sue), Blondell Taylor (Nurse), Daniel Moynihan (Street Artist), Colin Kerrigan (Computer Operator), Ian Crowe (Pathologist) As I have just finished watching the third season of "The Vampire Diaries", I thought I would continue with another vampire series. This is a recent blind buy. I was rather bored with the first episode. Though it did show some promise. Rating: (From Tom's TV Pilots marathon on January 4th, 2013) |
