Bio: So, apparently I watch a lot of films. You know, I never noticed it, but the rate at which my list of ranked films here on criticker is growing and the fact that none of my friends can keep up with my never-ending galore of movie references tell a different story. I have an appetite for horror and an insatiable craving for horror of the teen variety. Most teen slashers are pretty crappy but I just keep coming back for more like a glutton for punishment, or a glutton for one-dimensional character stereotypes, or a glutton for clichés, or a glutton for severed heads... you get the idea.

"Nolte + Roberts = about the most unappealing on-screen couple I could have thought up."
85 85% Lust, Caution (2007) - Rated 13 Aug 2010
"Harrowing. There's this quiet yet relentless undercurrent of melancholy that flows throughout the film, stealthily eating away at your insides until you've got that hollow feeling in the pit of your stomach. Ang Lee has a gift for making even the simplest of stories completely mesmerizing."
70 41% Millennium Actress (2001) - Rated 13 Aug 2010
"I'm a big fan of Kon's work, but this is definitely my least favorite film of his. The cynic in me had a hard time caring about the protagonist's epic romantic quest for some random dude, and between the visually stunning sequences I couldn't stop my eyes from rolling in their sockets. That being said, the stirring and painfully bittersweet ending redeems the story quite a bit."
50 10% Jennifer's Body (2009) - Rated 13 Aug 2010
"I really wanted this to be the fun cheesy ironic teen horror flick that I've been waiting to embrace with popcorn in my hand and my brain in sleep mode, but the film turned out to be just plain old irritating. Megan Fox can't act at all, but I suppose her creepy plastic surgery face is fit for a scary succubus creature thing. (That was the point of casting her, right? Right?)"
55 14% Acacia (2003) - Rated 12 Aug 2010
"I like several works that mix horror and drama, but in Acacia the horror is tame and the drama feels hokey, so the entire thing falls flat. If you're in the mood for a creepy and melancholic South Korean film with beautiful cinematography, I'd recommend watching A Tale of Two Sisters instead."
