Horror Flick Friday

This week's horror flick is:

There are 5 main reasons to watch this:

  1. Spiderman 1,2 &3 aside, Sam Raimi is fantastic!!
  2. Majorly gross special effects scenes ...
  3. Alison Lohman is adorbs!
  4. It has some pretty good plot twists ....
  5. At one point there is a demon goat.

Christine (Lohman) is a loan officer who had to make the tough decision to not give a crazy old babushka an extension on her loan. After being denied she gets on her knees and begs Christine, in which she still denies. Humiliated, crazy old babushka lady rips a button off of her coat, mutters nonsensical gibberish and is escorted out of the bank.

'eh shull curz vew!!!!!!


The rest of the flick is filled with cursed Christine seeing some of the craziest, grossest things imaginable all the while trying to get help to rid herself of the curse.


It was shown in 3D so there are a few super lameo moments that were solely placed for the cheesy effect. It has classic Raimi moments, and if you've ever seen the Evil Dead series (If not, BUY IT NOW!!!) you'll know what I'm talking about. Dancing demons and demon goats? Fantastic.





 Also, just thought this was kind of funny:

Horror Flick Friday

This week's horror flick is:


The story centers around a social worker named Emily (Zellweger) who loves to help children in need. Overloaded at work, she is given just one more case ....Case 39 (Yay! The title is relevant!) She is set on helping Case 39, a shy, quiet girl named Lilly (Jodelle Ferland) who may not be so shy in the end and rather a demon from Hell.


The actress Jodelle Ferland, is truly fantastic. If you're a horror flick fan (or gamer) you might recognize her from Silent Hill, yet another creepy flick full of freaky twitches. Oh& for those of you who scan the flicks for hot guys before watching: Bradley Cooper is in the role of Doug, Satan girl's psychiatrist and he's cute? (If you're into woman eyes ....)


All in all I'd say you should definitely give it a watch. It does have quite a few jumpy moments as well as some pretty awesome wounds. It's not gory, so if you have a sensitive tum-tum, you can get through it. Maybe... you pansy .... 

Oh& is it just or does anyone else think that Zellweger could be an alien?

Horror Flick Friday

It's a bit of an understatement to say that George A. Romero is somewhat of a zombie expert, I mean he is the FIRST to delve into that genre of ultimate horror. He's kind of my hero. We owe all we have on modern zombies to this genius:


This weeks horror flick is:


Most of you, I'm sure, are familiar with the most recent rendition from 2004. It was good, I liked it, but nothing can touch Romero's original from 1978. I am IN LOVE with special effects make-up. This flick is nothing but! Lots of oozy blood and guts, brains and severed arms ....It's fantastic. The flick starts in a news studio in the middle of the chaos, so you're just thrown into it. Makes it even better. Like the most recent, it centers around a group of people trying to evade hordes of brain eating zombies, so of course, they end up in a mall. From there, it goes downhill with lots of zombie attacks and horrible deaths.


I highly recommend you watch the original first then the most recent. It's kind of amazing to see how far horror has come over the decades. And yes, I do realize that in the original they all seem to be wearing Noxzema masks. They have to do something to try and keep their skin moisturized. 

Also, this is very important! Aim for the head.

Horror Flick Friday

I've decided to share my thoughts on some "scary" movies and seeing as how I have 6 months to kill, I've been watching plenty. Some will be suspenseful, some horribly gory and some that are so lame, they're actually pretty funny. The flick this week is:

The initial attraction to watch this came from the fact that this was one of Brittany Murphy's last films. I did like her as an actress and I thought she was quite underrated most of the time. She could make you laugh as well as cry ...and in this film she gives you goosebumps.

The story is about a writer named Alice (Murphy) who has been having difficulty finishing her screenplay. She goes to stay at an older house owned by a friend and discovers what happened to the former owners.

The plot was a little predictable, but it did have some moments where it actually made me look around my  own apartment just to make sure there wasn't a pyscho killer hiding in the corner. Murphy is really good at holding the suspense, but she does have a problem with mumbling some of her lines which somewhat breaks the illusion. All in all it was an okay movie. I'd recommend it to those of you who freak at the sight of gore and prefer an edge-of-the-seat flick rather than a slasher.
