Love Bite (2012)
Classic Teen Comedy Horror
Other reviews seem to really hate this movie and I imagine this may be due to British reviewers, now you're probably thinking 'well yeah it's a British movie naturally the brits will know if it's good or not' but you would be wrong.
The thing is aside from the British accents this is very much an American style teen movie, so tastes are rather different between the cultures and I can easily see those in the UK disliking the film but that shouldn't cause you to shy away from this.
The socially awkward but good looking guy with loser friends are trying day and night to get laid but can't. In comes the gorgeous foreign tourist that takes a shine to the quirkyness of said awkward fellow and the entire movie is spent with the boy trying to lay the hot tourist. Classic teen movie that you see more of from American films circa the late 70s through 80s/90s and to a lesser extent today even.
Add to this missing teens and suspected werewolves and a werewolf hunting hermit and you have a your American style teen comedy horror.
The acting is unexpectedly superb (given the budget and age of the actors), the jokes are crude as expected but work well (american pie style), the film quality/cinematography/directing/make up/cgi/ are all above par for a low budget horror.
If you're looking for a teen comedy/horror this should be on top of your list.
rated as a teen comedy 9/10
State of Emergency (2011)
Surprisingly Good
More in line with Night of the Living Dead rather than what we've seen from today's zombie films. Not to say that this lacks zombies, there is actually a nice steady stream of them.
This is definitely worth the watch and the calibre of production is exemplary! In no way do you ever feel as if you are watching a bargain basement title, far from it! The team did a fantastic job with what looks like a warehouse and barn and they made it scary!
The acting is another surprise because we've come to expect sub par acting or even student actors from these low budget films but again that is not the case in this movie! the majority of the cast does a good job while the minority is still passable.
As my title says this was surprisingly good, definitely put this on your list especially if you are making a Halloween movie list :)
Orphan (2009)
How does this have a 7/10 rating??? This makes Uwe Boll look like a Genius
One of the worst movies ever made.... the actors are fine.. i'll give you that... but the story.... WOW... even if i was to suspend all concepts of reality for this film.... i still couldn't like this (for lack of a more descriptive word) crap i wont write an essay regarding all the ridiculous points in the film.. (1000 words doesn't cut it IMDb) But do yourself a favour... and stay away from this film... it will get you mad... the writer/director must think its audience consists of roving inbred psychopaths who happen to be blind and deaf if they expect their film to be appealing...
judging by the reviews i wonder...
Lost Boys: The Tribe (2008)
For a STV it was Great!
I was pleasantly surprised with this, it was good.. at some points in the film you get a little bored and you wish some scenes were cut down while others extended.. but for a STV release this is top notch!
CoreyFeldman looks surprisingly young (compared to his show) and acted quite well (unexpectedly) the scene half-way into the credits was a nice treat along with the references made to the original and the goonies, overall i was quite satisfied and would definitely recommend this.
I have to add though, i wish they put a tad bit more effort into it (some more back-story a little more development before the whole shh-bang) and had a cinema release.. with just a little bit more work i think this could have done quite well in the box office. But again for a STV release this was a great treat
All the King's Men (2006)
Opening night theatre was Packed..
All The Kings Men only had 20people in it.. and half of them walked out before we did, we got about 1hour into the movie before we couldn't take it anymore...
The movie had all the right actors to make a 10+oscar winning flick.. but my god it was so terribly SLOW nothing would happen and then BAM all sorts of things happened but you just get a quick summary of it from Jude Law... anyway i was so disappointed with all those great actors especially Sean Penn who did an outstanding job, the trailer was far more entertaining then the movie could ever hope to be. if they would have just put some more time into editing and got more in-depth into the details.
