Yesterday, I watched a really excellent Japanese "found footage," mockumentary-style horror film called "Noroi: The Curse." If you can handle sub-titles, then I strongly recommend that one.

It...

Last night I watched the 1981 film, "Possession," starring Isabel Adjani and Sam Neill.

Wow. My appreciation for weird, horrific movies is pretty much emblematic of my personality, but dang, this...

Yeah, that's a great movie. They're doing an American remake that takes place in Minnesota, but I'd recommend viewing the original. There's no way a remake wil be as good as the version those...

Speaking of "pure ****," I've got a movie that would make almost anyone regard "[REC] 2" as a masterpiece, by comparison. A few hours ago, I made the mistake of watching the 2010 horror film called...

No way, that movie was excellent. I'm not sure why you didn't like it, but over at IMDB, all the Richard Dawkins fan boys are upset because there's a super-natural angle, and they felt betrayed...

It was good overall...but I was a little disappointed with the ending.

Last night I watched "Paths of Glory" (1957), which was excellent. I'm actually surprised I'd never seen it before.

I recently read "Lisey's Story" (I would have read it years ago, but I lost my...

I've already downloaded & watched "The Reef." I have kind of a thing for shark-oriented horror movies (and they really haven't made very many of them). It was well done. Not as good as "Open...

Oooh! I'm going to try to get ahold of that one ASAP.

The last movie I saw in the theater was "Rise of the Planet of the Apes." It was awesome; highly recommended!

The last couple newish movies I saw at home (among those I'd never seen before) were...

This morning I watched the 2004 re-make of "Flight of the Phoenix." It was OK; not as bad I suspected it would be. I was surprised at how little it differed from the original, however. About the...

Psychic warfare is a very real phenomenon. Our science has yet to explain why such things as, say, remote viewing work, but they do. People in the Pentagon didn't care why it worked; they were just...

The last movie I saw was "Prizzi's Honor," from 1985. I always heard it was supposed to be good, but I wasn't too impressed.

I'm pretty sure that's a Korean movie.

Anyhoo, let me just add that my favourite of all the Halloween movies is "Halloween III: Season of the Witch." I am probably the only person on Earth who...

If you classify it as a horror movie, its one of the best ones of all time.

Yes, that was much better than I expected.

Not great, but perhaps worth a watch on a slow day.

Yesterday, I watched 1974's "The Parallax View" (starring Warren Beatty, and several people we've all seen in small parts in other films, without ever picking up on their names, in most cases) which...

I saw the original "Evil Dead" when I was in the theater at age 12 or 13, that scared me quite a bit (although not as much as I was scared by the original "Alien" at age 8, and at a sold-out theater...

The last two movies I viewed were both long-shots that I almost didn't bother to watch, yet they surprised me by being surprisingly good.

The first was "Criminal," starring John C. Reilly. Its a...

Good for you for watching the original Spanish version, rather than that stupid U.S. remake, "Quarantine," I think it was called. And yes, it was an unusually good horror film, a movie genre that...

The last movie I saw was supposed to be a comedy, called "Observe and Report." It was a stupid movie, not very funny, and it left me feeling soiled after viewing. It also seems to glorify police...

I think "Fathers' Day" is kinda lame, but all the others are good. I especially like "Tide." When Leslie Nielsen screams "I can hold my breath for a long, long time!," there's just something...

I just watched "River's Edge" from 1986. The events of that movie occurred about ten miles north of here, in the town of Milpitas. I recall reading about them in the San Jose Mercury News, probably...

I liked the book very much (I read it in the original chapter book format, and I even entered a couple of the writing contests - remember those?), but wasn't a huge fan of the movie. It was pretty...
