| Movie: | My taste in film is like my taste in music: all over the place. It ranges from Halloween to Dangerous Liaisons or Fido to Stranger Than Fiction or Blue Velvet to Wall-E. You get the point but my first love is horror. |

I was introduced to film when I was about 7 (my dad); more specifically to monster movies. The first two films I saw were King Kong and The Island of Dr. Moreau and it's been an addiction ever since.

Outlander
R
What do you get when you cross sci-fi with Vikings with creatures? A kick-ass, rip roaring good time is what.
The story's familiar and there are some moments of pure cheese but it has so much going for it that its easy to forgive and forget.
The acting is solid, the set design and costumes are spectacular, there's a fair amount of blood and gore and while the creature is strictly CG it works more than not.
One of the most enjoyable films I've seen this year and recommended to anyone who enjoys sci-fi/adventure.
Fritt vilt (Cold Prey)
Unrated
40 minutes before the first kill, no gore, characters I could care less about and a killer with no presence at all.
Geez no one knows how to make a damn slasher anymore.
Terminator Salvation
PG-13
Eye-popping action sequences, great visuals and CG that mostly works plus with it being a "part 4" it was very refreshing to see a third sequel closely adhere to its predecessors.
Forget the nay-sayers and just enjoy it for the fun action/sci-fi/thriller its meant to be.
Eden Log
R
With a bigger budget and a more coherent plot this could've been a five star film but as it stands its still a well done bleak sci-fi thriller from France.
Plague Town
Unrated
A few tense and/or creepy moments but otherwise a lackluster killer kids movie with a typical and unsatisfying ending.
The Locals (Dead People)
Unrated
Somewhat interesting story mucked up by piss poor writing, pacing and too many unanswered questions.
And it only took me two weeks to suffer through.

The Fog (1980)
R
I love everything about this movie: the creepy foghorn blowing, the equally creepy score, the scene when the salt water comes in contact with the tape player and starts playing a low (creepy) voice of Blake, the diary which if you feeze it as Malone is flipping through the pages gives a rather raunchy description of some woman, JC's brief role, the really bad elevator music that Stevie Wayne's radio station plays, Blake and his (yes, creepy) crew, the in-jokes of peoples names, Jamie Lee Curtis, Adrienne Barbeau, Hal Holbrook, Darwin Joston, George "There ain't no fog bank out there" Flowers and Tom Freakin' Atkins. Amen.
2.
Halloween
R
Others may have come before it, (i.e. Twitch of the Death Nerve; Black Christmas) but no one ever did it as good as John Carpenter with this still effective slasher that begat more ripoffs than any other film.
3.
Creepshow
R
Never was big on anthologies but this one works and how! Romero and King shine in this loving, gory and blackly humorous tribute to EC comics and the like. "Just tell it to call ya Billie!"
4.
Blue Velvet
R
David Lynch's pièce de résistance. A few of his other films come close but nothing can or probably will knock this film from it's high standing. It's an erotic thriller murder mystery that's told in a way that only David Lynch and his warped genius can. Hearing the songs 'Blue Velvet' or 'In Dreams' gives them a whole new meaning now.
5.
Poltergeist
PG
Simply the best, creepiest of all ghost tales told. It scared me when I was a kid and it still can give me chill bumps now. The sequels decline rapidly.

964 Pinocchio (Screams of Blasphemy)
by El HombreInteresting work, not essentially horror, but horrific enough in statement and in execution to warrant a look. A forerunner of Spielberg and Kubrick's A.I. as well, in an odd sense. Explosions of blood and vomit from characters' orifices lead to a suitably fluid-spattered finale.

Ichi-1
by El HombreThis movie is a decent prequel to Ichi: The Killer. This story explains a bit about how he became who he is. It stands pretty well on its own and was good about not leaving loose ends everywhere and not having parts that were unnecessary.
What it lacks in overall quality, it makes up for in campy violence and completely inappropriate humor. If you're a fan of Ichi the Killer, it's definitely worth checking out for the novelty of seeing Ichi and the onset of his first homicidal tendencies.

Public Enemies
by MarkDecent historical crime drama about John Dillinger and the efforts of J. Edgar Hoover's developing FBI to stop him. Classy production design beautifully recreating the 1930s is undermined by a less than compelling plot. It ultimately builds to an interesting climax, but most the action before that is rather spiritless. Unquestionably an improvement over Michael Mann's last film Miami Vice. Also of note is actress Marion Cotillard as Dillinger's girlfriend Billie Frechette.

Martyrs
by katleyMartyrs, is one of those movies that you walk out of, not sure what you thought of it. The French have brought us quite a few horror flicks here lately, that have combined gore (lot's and lots of gore) and surprisingly good plots, and Martyrs is no exception. Ok the plot I'm not going to lie is going to be very hard to describe without giving away any details. So the film starts with a girl who we soon come to know as Lucie running down a street, drenched in blood. We find out that she was beaten and tortured. Then we see her make friends with Anna, at the local nut house. Flash forward 15 years and you get Lucie brutally killing the family who supposedly held her captive 15 years prior. She calls Anna to help her, and soon after that things just go on a downward spiral that you could have never predicted. Including creepy ass girls, demented sociopaths, and then you finally learn the true meaning of Martyrs. I know the plot seems vague, but that's just because it's so detailed and graphic that I couldn't go into much more detail without ruining everything. I'm not sure were to start with this movie. There was a lot to love. For example the originality, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that I have never seen anything like this before. But there is also a bit that some might not love including some of the more graphic and disturbing scenes. Now I am not one of those people, I thought that they really added to the film in all the rights ways, but I'm not going to lie they are hard to swallow and not for the faint of heart. Moving onto gore, there's so much that it would be impossible to list it all. You get, very bloody gunshot wounds, some bloody self mutilation, a chick cutting her arm off, someone being skinned alive, medal being removed from the skull, stabbings, a sliced throat, some gruesome beatings, and a woman getting her skull smashed in, and that's just a taste. Acting, some of the best acting I've ever seen. Now I watched Frontiers earlier this year and afterwards didn't think that you could get much better acting, but this tops it in so many ways. And you won't think about it as your watching it, the acting is so good that as your watching the film you can't even tell anyone's really acting. Soundtrack, intense, heavy music, that blended extremely well with this one, a good score. Directing, Augier successfully created intense, tension filled moments in every scene. And the way it was shot gives it this highly disturbing poetic look that works wonders. I am ecstatic to see what we get next from Augier. Ok so throughout the first half of this film you will develop many questions about what is going on. They are all answered during the second half of the film. Now this is were the film turns from outrageous, outgoing, brutal violence, to disturbing graphic depictions of torture. The transition that they made was quick and sleek but very noticeable. All of your questions will be answered, but not with what you were expecting and it is somewhat unbelievable. Bottom line, Martyrs is a hard core horror movie that leaves no room for questions. You get one of the most frighteningly original plots to come out in a long time, an unimaginable amount of gore, and acting that puts everything you've seen since the Texas Chainsaw Massacre to rest. Even with a slightly unbelievable sub plot Martyrs still proves to be one of the best most entertaining horror films I've seen in a long time. Do yourself a favor and check this one out.

I Drink Your Blood
by John"I Drink Your Blood" was the first film ever rated "X" by the MPAA. I was never bored and I was constantly amused by the acting, script and pretty poor production values But it was made with not budget.. This entertaining film is pretty much a blood and sex packed piece of celluloid, but it's not without its charm.
