FRANKENSTEIN’S ARMY
FRANKENSTEIN’S ARMY is a total win. Great looking monsters framed by a clever
found footage premise – A Soviet propaganda film shot during World War II. Frankenstein’s grandson and a plot that is
good horror fun from beginning to end.
CONFESSIONS
Entertaining and creative Japanese revenge yarn that
is also absurdly histrionic and convoluted.
The first twenty minutes or so which involve one character’s confession
is great. A well told story if a bit
overdone.
GUT
What I liked – The banter between the main characters,
the building tension which is constant. What I didn’t like – Low budget which hurts the story's flow, weak
ending . VIDEODROME influenced but
needed tightening up.
THE COLONY
Mediocre dystopian sci fi horror partly redeemed by the
overacting of Laurence Fishburne and Bill Paxton. Future Environmental causes slogan
- Global cooling = cannibals.
BEYOND THE BLACK RAINBOW
A thin story camouflaged and padded out by a series of weird futuristic
images and random nonsense. Never
horrifying only boring. It seems like every
member of the cast of this film is on tranquilizers not just the psychic girl
heroine.
