| 40 12% | [REC]³ Génesis (2012) - Rated 24 Apr 2024
"It tries to expand on the lore (of not zombies but kinda zombies but also no) and has some pretty interesting ideas. Some of those ideas take away from the scary factor, though, so I'm not sure if it was always for the best. I just have to say that Leticia Dolera is absolutely beautiful and badass with her wedding gown and a chainsaw, though! Otherwise, it starts out promising but falls flat pretty soon after the actual horror bit starts."

| 30 7% | Inferno (2016) - Rated 23 Apr 2024
"I love movies where characters find clues and chase after them to solve historical puzzles by using their knowledge of history. Zimmer's soundtrack is beautiful and all the locations look incredible and make you wonder about all the beautiful and mysterious things that humankind has built. But the movie is shallow and just gets ripped apart by its attempt to do everything and being an action movie with mysteries. Just boring and ultimately fails to build up the suspense it promised to deliver."

"Enjoyed the moods of this one! I watch quite a bit of horror and a lot of it either falls flat on its face right at the start or starts out promising, just to fizzle out in the middle. But Relic does have those moods that I like, the slow, creeping horror that doesn't come from jump scares or gore but rather from the eerie mood it builds. Feeling a sense of dread while watching horror should be kind of given, right?"

| 75 71% | The Getaway (1972) - Rated 21 Apr 2024
"A very effectively paced heist thriller for the most part, it's got the car scenes, shootouts, and music that one expects to see and hear. Steve McQueen is great, but unfortunately for me, Ali MacGraw did not quite have the acting chops to shine. I read that she was unhappy with her own performance, too, though there's definitely chemistry between the two main leads that reached out to real life, as well."

| 59 29% | Prospect (2018) - Rated 21 Apr 2024
"I don't know why, but this movie was just boring to me. Started out promising (I'm a sucker for space stations with tech that looks like it's still in the 80s) but I was always waiting for the movie to start. I also like alien planet stuff, but there wasn't much of it happening here apart from the freakyshrooms, the dust and the things they were digging the diamonds out of. The relationship between the two main characters was pretty well-crafted, but overall the movie just felt bland to me."

| 70 56% | Satanic Panic (2019) - Rated 19 Apr 2024
"Just crazy and way out of there, it's certain to entertain if you're into some good old-school movie Satan worshipping aesthetics and laughs. It knows there's no need to play it too dark here, or try to act too serious. Just decent fun with some outrageous ideas, that was what I was here for. Rebecca Romijn is soooo good as the coven leader and the roles played by the rest of the cast were great, too. Horror comedy is my jam."

| 80 85% | Adaptation. (2002) - Rated 18 Apr 2024
"A really wild and unpredictable movie with some of the best acting from Nick Cage that I've seen. He really does own these characters, playing twins in the story, and meandering along with his nervous slouch and obsessive ideas. The rest of the cast is very talented, as well, and personally one of my smaller role favorites was that played by Brian Cox. Just felt like a fresh, new thing, and that's a lot these days... even if I'm watching this some 22 years later."

| 73 66% | We Are What We Are (2013) - Rated 17 Apr 2024
"Went in with no expectations, kinda loved it! Twisted enough for my tastes, but doesn't need to feast (ahah) on the violence too much to tell an effective story. I liked that there was a bit of detective work and thriller stuff involved with the horror. You can sympathize a bit with some of the most horrible characters (up to a point) because they are fleshed out just enough. All the actors, expecially for the main family, are so great here."

| 79 80% | Martha Marcy May Marlene (2011) - Rated 16 Apr 2024
"A dark and twisted tale of how a cult can mess with your head. There are various ways that a cult gradually can get to you; gaslighting, threat of violence, promises of rewards, feigning dependence on other people and their resources for survival, showing affection, and then threatening to take it away. I wasn't super into the subdued colors (no deep blacks, but the filter made everything a bit washed out), but it didn't take away from the movie itself."

| 73 66% | Silkwood (1983) - Rated 15 Apr 2024
"This is a very solid worker right -movie with a stellar cast. Meryl Streep and Kurt Russell have a real chemistry and Cher is awesome as the lesbian friend. It's a bit long but overall it feels like it holds your interest effectively enough not to grow boring. Even the relationship drama works well and fleshes out the characters further. My only complaint is that it feels a bit spotty on the activism part."
