Mini-Review: There are some things Zombie does very well: I like his visual style and the violence he depicts on screen is effectively horrific and disturbing (not like the playful, corny deaths so frequently in slashers). But man oh man his take on psychology is absurd - the many dream sequences are silly and distracting, Laurie's mental degradation is implausibly depicted, and the finale is pretty much non-sensical.

Mini-Review: Not all the gags work, but it's mostly enjoyable with some great, memorable moments (e.g. Marcel Marceau, the newspaper man, etc.). I think part of the problem is that successful silent comedies are at their best when they are very short (e.g. Sherlock Jr.) and the stars are incredible physical talents (Feldman's pretty good, but none are as spot on as Keaton or Chaplin in their prime). It's still very watchable, though, and I give it credit for being creative and different at the time.

Mini-Review: Sleazy and depraved cannibal feature that fortunately doesn't rely on animal cruelty like many others of the genre. There are a few moments of creativity, but the pacing is horribly slow, the cannibal monster is very goofy looking, the effects are very cheap, and the copious sex/nudity becomes very tedious after a while.

Mini-Review: Obnoxious and idiotic rich folk waste tons of money and cost lots of lives so that they can see dinosaurs - it might have worked if it were funnier or sharper, but the film spends so much time on action sequences that a) look incredibly fake (worse than 1 and 2) and b) expect you to worry about these thoroughly unlikeable people that watching this movie is a chore.
