The Bottom Line My Longest Review Yet, I started it back in February. I hope This is Helpful to You.
Who here likes to be terrified? Well I for one love to be scared, and what better way to get scared than by watching scary movies? I purchase these type of movies on a regular basis, I have a pretty large collection of scary films, but few horror movies released in the last 10 years have impressed me, or even held my interest. Such titles like Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer have shown just how much of a decline in quality that this genre is experiencing, most of these newer horror movies have done what many before them have already accomplished, but with less thrills and suspense. The only way to get my jollies nowadays is to bust out with the older, more suspenseful films that really showcase creativity, quality, and just plain horror. Not all good horror movies are scary though, sometimes the really funny ones turn out to be great. You may notice in my list that I didn't just include movies that I liked because of their scare factor, some of these movies are just entertaining to watch. I guarantee that almost everyone will have totally different views then mine when it comes to these movies, but there is no correct list, it all boils down to what people prefer. This list is sort of a follow up to a list that I wrote near the beginning of my epinions career, I hope you enjoy it! MY FAVORITE HORROR MOVIES: #10 - The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1974 Scare Factor: 3/5 Quote From The Film: "I think we just picked up Dracula." I didn't watch this film until a couple of years ago even though this film was released 10 years before I was born. I had already seen part 2 of this movie and I liked it, so when I found this movie at an old video store I had to pick it up, and I liked it even better then part 2. Something really creepy about this film that I haven't seen in a whole lot of modern films is that the horror takes place in the middle of nowhere, basically there's nobody to help you. There's just something about cannibalism that freaks me out, and after watching this film's sequel I probably won't be eating too much chili for a while. This film is based around a group of morons... errr, I mean people, that are trekking across a barren part of Texas, they are going to the cemetary to check on someone's grave. Along the way they stop for to give a ride to a weird looking guy that obviously isn't going to be a pleasant companion, and after a while they get rid of him. The group later stops off at an old farm house, this is where the real terror begins as the group is attacked one by one by the demented family. Overall I was a little scared of this movie, but I didn't lose any sleep and it didn't even stay on my mind. #9 - The Thing 1982 Scare Factor: 4/5 Quote From The Film: "Why don't we just wait here for a while... see what happens." Yet another film I didn't watch until a couple of years ago, the Thing really surprised me. I'm not a huge fan of John Carpenter, I much prefer the work of Wes Craven, Stephen King, and even George A. Romero. This movie boasts some pretty incredible special effects, I was pleasantly surprised with how everthing looked, and this was from a movie that was released just 2 years before I was born. The movie taps into the psychological fear of trust, as the antagonist can morph into anything it likes, and so you never know who is The Thing, therefore you are caught off guard when the action hits. This movie also has one of the creepiest endings I have ever seen. This movie is about an evil space creature that can morph into any form it wants, therefore the stars can't exactly kill the it, it mimics perfectly. The horror starts when workers at a remote base in Antarctica find a dog, well that's what they think it is until it's head splits open and tentacles sprout everywhere. The people don't know who to trust, the alien can morph into anything and is particularly dangerous to them, bonds of trust are broken between them because they don't know which one of them is actually the alien. No sleepless nights here, but I was pretty scared. #8 - Army of Darkness 1993 Scare Factor: 1/5 Quote From The Film: "Alright, you primitive screwheads, listen up: THIS... is my BOOM STICK!" I didn't get to see this movie when it was first released, I saw it for the first time a couple years after it's debut. Unlike the previous 2 movies in this list, Army of Darkness offers little to people looking for a movie to scare them, or even a movie that will make them simply turn on the lights, this movie isn't scary in the least. This movie's appeal is mostly in it's comedic presentation, Army of Darkness is the direct sequel to Evil Dead 2, only this movie takes place mostly in medievel times, this adds a whole new layer of comedy to the movie, it's interesting to see how Ash interacts with his surroundings and people from the medievel time period, 1300 AD to be specific. After the events in Evil Dead 2, Ash is caught in an inter-dimensional portal which sends him all the way back to the year 1300 AD. Ash isn't accepted when he first arrives, they force him to march for miles upon miles, and then he is pitted against a couple zombies in a pit, after Ash pulls a leatherface on the zombies he is respected by all of the townsfolk. Ash gets into some pretty big trouble, he learns that he can only return to his real time period with the assistance of a book, and upon retrieving the book he unleashes a legion of undead monsters that are looking to overthrow the kingdom. Not scary in the least, but still a good watch. #7 - Night of The Living Dead 1990 and 1968 Scare Factor: New Version 4/5 Old Version 5/5 Quote From The Films: "They're coming to get you, Barbara!" George A. Romero's Night of The Living Dead brought a slew of wannabes, but no other zombie flick is as good as Night of The Living Dead. When most people hear the word remake they instantly seem to lose interest, but Tom Savini's remake of Night of The Living Dead is almost as good as the original, and not just because it's nicer to look at, or because it has much better music, it's because it is almost exactly like the original, but with a select few things that happen differently. Probably the biggest difference between the two is the ending, the endings are totally different from each other, but the remake's ending is not as good as the original. My parents first introduced me to these movies about 5 years ago, the remake and the original are both classics. Both movies start out with a scene with a man and a woman driving down a long road, the man appears to be teasing his sister. It turns out that these two are on their way to visit one of their parent's graves (depends on which version), and upon arrival the man is killed by a zombie, and so the woman (Barbara), after running for quite some time arrives at a house that appears to be void of any life, and so she takes refuge inside and soon meets up with a group of people that share one interest: survival. These people decide that they must survive for an indefinite time inside the house, they must keep the zombies out, but then all goes to hell. The one thing about this movie is that it is pretty disturbing to see normal looking people transformed into brainless zombies. If you are looking for a scary film then this is it, the original is a bit more horrifying then the remake. #6 - A Nightmare On Elm Street 1984 Scare Factor: 4/5 Quote From The Film: "What ever you do, don't fall asleep!" It's kind of strange where geniuses find their inspiration, Wes Craven got the idea for A Nightmare on Elm Street while reading a newspaper. Wes Craven managed to create one of the creepiest monsters that I've seen so far, this monstrosity is the man named Freddy Krueger. Freddy was burned to death in his own home, he was a murderer, a child murderer that is, and after a technicallity saves Freddy from prison time, parents from the neighborhood killed him. That wasn't the end of Freddy though, years later teens from that particular neighborhood are all having dreams about the same person, a man with burn marks all over his face and a nice little glove on his right hand that features razor sharp knives. In a time when slasher films were becoming dull, A Nightmare on Elm Street brought something fresh to the genre, and besides, you all know you were a little creeped out when the guy was sucked into his bed. That wasn't all that creeped me out in this film though, that blasted nursery rhyme about Freddy gave me the chills the first time I heard it. As with most horror movies from the time, the ending from this movie left room for a sequel, but there wasn't just one sequel, there were several but the only one that was good (besides the original) was part 3. After part 3 in any trilogy the movies usually start to suffer. A Nightmare on Elm Street had me thinking twice about falling asleep, a good choice for any horror fan. #5 - From Dusk Til Dawn 1996 Scare Factor: 2/5 Quote From The Film: "I'm a mean m... m... servant of God." As I have previously stated, when it comes to horror movies, I believe there has been a huge decline in the entertainment value in the last 10 years, but I couldn't help but include From Dusk Til Dawn in this list, it surpassed all my expectations. Something else that makes this movie stand out on my list is the fact that it is the only vampire flick I have included, I'm really not a fan of vampire movies. I saw this movie a little after it was released, but it didn't scare me at all. The action in this film takes place out in the middle of nowhere, a technique often used to intensify the horror, but it isn't very effective in this film. The film starts with 2 brothers looking for cover to get into Mexico, they are notorious bank robbers and are all over the news. They decide to hijack the mobile home of an ex preacher and his two children. After several hours of driving they arrive at border patrol where they barely make it through without being caught, after this they arrive at the rendevous spot, everything goes wrong, especially when they discover that the bar is run by vampires that use the place to trap their victims. The family, robbers, and tons of other men are locked inside, and must fend for themselves against the horde of vampires. This movie has an average amount of gore, mostly just people driving stakes through the hearts of the vampires. This movie didn't scare me much at all, I didn't even feel nervous about going outside at night right after watching this. #4 - Child's Play 1988 Scare Factor: 5/5 Quote From The Film: "Hi, I'm Chucky. Wanna play?" It's a fact, dolls are not alive, they are simply replicas of humans, but there's something about the thought of a doll that can really creep someone out. There are however, certain circumstances that could make you believe a doll is alive, your either high off hallucenagenics, the doll came with 15 pre-recorded phrases, or your doll is possessed by a demon, or even another human being. The movie Child's Play uses the fear of dolls to get to the audience, the doll in the movie is animate, can talk, and has been possessed by a serial killer that has vowed revenge on the people that led him to his demise. Even with the special effects at the time of it's release, by looking at "Chucky" in most of the scenes you really get a feeling it's not just a puppet. This creepy movie begins with a scene showing a chase, apparently a criminal is trying to make a run for it and is being chased by a cop. After exchanging a bit of gunfire, the chase leads the police officer to a toy store where the criminal (Charles Lee Ray) is hiding in. Charles has taken a few hits, and knows that he won't make it out of there alive, and so he starts shouting threats, and starts chanting something as he stares into the empty eyes of a doll. Lightning strikes inside the store, and kills Charles Lee Ray, or so we think. The scene changes to a middle class apartment, a young boy is making "breakfast" for his mother in bed. We soon learn that it is the kid's birthday, but his mom couldn't afford the only thing he really wanted, a good guy doll. A little later in the movie the desperate mother finds a street peddler that offers to sell her a doll he found in an abandoned toy store for a cheap price. She buys it, and you can probably guess what happens in the movie. Mysterious things start happening, the babysitter dies and the little boy states that he can talk to his doll Chucky, but nobody believes him. This is a great movie to scare yourself with, watch with the lights on though. #3 - Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn 1987 Scare Factor: 3/5 Quote From The Film: "Then lets go down there and carve ourselves a witch!" Even though this is basically a remake of the original Evil Dead movie, I still enjoyed this far more than the prequel. The original evil Dead film was created with virtually no budget, and so with the $3,000,000 budget for part 2 you can expect it to bring a higher quality feeling to this movie. Bruce Campbell returns from the original, slapstick style comedy and all, which is a definite plus. Altogether it retains the great feeling of the Evil Dead, but fans of the original may feel robbed due to the fact that it is at heart the original, only with a couple of new plot gimmicks, nothing that would really warrant a non fan to purchase both the Evil Dead and it's predecessor. After being forced to take refuge in a cabin out in the woods, and releasing evil spirits our hero, Ash is in real big trouble. Things only get worse once the furniture starts laughing at him, it's too bad for him that he's not just hallucinating. The furniture isn't the only thing that's evil though, as Ash is forced to remove his own hand with a chainsaw. Ash meets up with a couple people throughout the film, but their sole purpose for being present is to be killed or possessed, this creates some pretty shallow characters. The slapstick humor in this movie has a large presence, it offers a couple laughs here and there to lighten the movie up a little, and without it I don't think I would like this movie quite as much as I do. In my humble opinion, the funniest part in the whole film involves the laughing furniture, I cracked up the first time I saw this scene, a notably funny item is the mounted deer's head. This movie can be a little creepy at some parts, but nothing too bad. #2 - Stephen King's Pet Sematary 1989 Scare Factor: 5/5 Quote From The Film: "First I played with Judd, then I played with mommy. Now I want to play with youuuuuuuuuu!" If you could bring someone, anyone back from the dead even if you know they wouldn't be the same, would you? I'm not sure how many people would answer yes to that question, but I would definitely answer no. In Pet Sematary a man has the chance to bring the dead back to life, and he does it, all with horrible results. You see, people and animals that are buried on a special Indian burial ground come back to life, but in the sour soil they come back with a vengeance, meaning that they are simply an evil shadow of their former selfs. This movie is high with emotions, there are a couple of scenes where you really feel sad, then the sadness suddenly changes to fear. I caught this movie as a child, it scared me then, and it still scares me now, almost as much as it did back then. The opening scene showcases a family looking to purchase a home, after thinking for a couple minutes they decide to invest in the nice house. There is one thing that these people do not like about the house, it's right alongside a busy highway and this family has a cat that they fear is destined to be reduced to pancake status. Well predictably the cat is creamed by one of the large trucks, and the father, not wanting to upset his daughter when she gets home from vacation, decides to bury the cat in an ancient burial ground, with the help and advice of his neighbor. Surprisingly enough, the cat comes back the next day but is one mean feline, the burial ground brought it back to life. So what's a man to do when his son is killed? He can't stand the pain, so he buries the infant son in the burial ground, but when the son comes back to life with the intent on killing him, things go sour. This is a pretty creepy movie, when I first saw it I couldn't sleep right for a couple of days. #1 - Stephen King's IT 1990 Scare Factor: 5/5 Quote From The Film: "Very wise of your dad, Georgie, very wise indeed...I am PennyWise, the dancing clown. You, are Georgie. So. Now we know each other, ceee-rect?" Can you tell that I like Stephen King's work yet? The movie "IT" is one of the movies that has really kept me scared for a prolonged time, it may be because of the fact that I saw it when I was about 8 years old, but just the thought of a clown in the gutters that eats children scared me pretty bad. As I just mentioned, this movie is about a clown, yes a clown, but not just any old clown, this clown can change shapes, and also read your mind. What's worse is that adults can't see it, it's all based on the imaginations of children in a small town called Dairy. The clown lives off of children, he eats and kills them, bodies of missing children start turning up, but nobody knows what happened, except for a group of children. The movie has a good plot, but it doesn't fit together until about halfway through the film. The movie starts with a gruesome murder of a young girl, by a creepy looking clown. A middle aged man finds a picture of a young boy at the crime scene, and realizes that IT is back. He contacts his old friends that helped him put an end to the killer clown when they were children, and the film shows the memories of the people. That's basically how the film is played out, you don't have much of an idea at first, but everything falls into place as you watch the memories played. These people were the unpopular crowd when they went to school together, and even called themselves the "losers club" a name given to them by a boy that used to terrorize them. As children they were terrorized by the clown, but they ended up putting him to rest for 15 years, but then he came back, and the film starts when he comes back. It may sound confusing, but it makes sense while you are watching the film.

Ok, that was the first part of my list, but I decided to do something special and make 2 lists, one for my favorite horror movies and my least favorite, this will be much like the above list, only it will describe what are the worst movies in my opinion. If you were simply looking for the movies I recommend then look at the above list, for the movies to avoid refer to the below list. Feel free to skip the next list if you were simply looking for recommended movies. I decided to start this list at #1 and work down to #10, I hope you enjoy! THE 10 WORST HORROR MOVIES #1 - Troll 2 1992 Cheesiness Factor: 5/5 Quote From The Film: "Nilbog! It's "goblin" spelled backwards! This is their kingdom!" When you come across a film like this you think to yourself, was the director trying to make this movie so bad that it's good? I think that was filmakers intention, but he didn't succeed, Troll 2 just plain sucks, there's no nice way of putting it. The first bad thing I'll mention is the title, it's about goblins so why didn't they just name it Goblin? Another horrible thing about this movie is the acting, with that much enthusiasm I wouldn't be surprised if the cast was composed of homeless people looking to earn a buck or two, it's that bad. The plot sucks too, and the script is anything BUT believable. This movie is about a very badly dressed city family that is looking to exchange homes with a family from the country for a couple days. There is obviously something wrong with the family they are exchanging places with, as they show no emotion, but even if they did try to show emotion you wouldn't be able to tell because of the horrendous acting job. The family arrives at their temporary home in the country, where they are greeted by a table full of food, this food has obviously been tampered with, why would anyone use butter the color of green? The main character of the movie, the young son is told by his dead grandpa not to let anyone eat the food, so grandpa freezes time to allow Joshua (The son) to do something about the green colored "food". Joshua ends up urinating all over it, and is immediately given a “stern” talking to from his dad. The goblins won’t stop there though, as the whole town is populated by them, they are out to get the badly dressed family. #2 - Leprechaun In The Hood 2000 Cheesiness Factor: 5/5 Quote From The Film: "A Friend With Weed is a Friend Indeed" I admit it, I enjoyed the original Leprechaun movie, and I would have included it in my favorite list last year, but since then I’ve grown to dislike the ill fated franchise. The first movie was cheesy enough, so what would you expect to see in the 5TH movie of the franchise. This movie’s biggest ingredient for suck though is the fact that this film places the Leprechaun, an Irish mythical figure, in the ghetto. You probably can understand just how cheesy this movie is just from hearing the title, and as the song goes, “The Leprechaun in the Hood Can Do No Good”. The movie stars a group of rappers looking to hit it big, they want to get into the record industry so they meet up with the owner of a record label, but he absolutely hates this groups “positive message”. The rappers decide to rob this guy, and they end up releasing the Leprechaun from his stone inprisonment, and he wreaks havoc on the unsuspecting “G”s. There are several ultra cheesy scenes in this movie, along with some ear wrenching raps that come from the Leprechaun. A Leprechaun that raps? You betcha, the ending song is especially bad. Avoid this movie, even fans of the series will hate this installment. #3 - Sleepaway Camp 1983 Cheesiness Factor: 4/5 Quote From The Film: "She's a real carpenter's dream: flat as a board and needs a screw! " This movie’s cover makes this film sound somewhat enticing, but I’ll never let a cover cloud my judgement again. The premise sounds good, teenage campers die one by one at the hand of an unknown killer, but this has been overused, and just feels a little like a Friday The 13th clone. Near the beginning of the film you can automatically figure out who the killer is, but the cruddy ending does come out as somewhat of a surprise. I’m dying to describe the ending, but I wouldn’t want to ruin the movie for you, so I’ll just keep it a secret. I’ll tell you this though, after the ending I just stood there and that to myself “What the F^$^ was that?”. The movie starts off well enough, a father is killed in a careless boating accident and one of his two children appears to be dead, while the other is injured. Years later the surviving child has moved in with some of her relatives. She is reluctant to go to camp with her cousin, but she ends up going. She’s picked on a lot by some of the campers, and then suddenly all the people that picked on her start dying off and disappearing. I’ll give you a hint, there is something definetly not right about this movie, it has to do with the death of the girl’s father and sibling. #4 - Pet Sematary 2 1992 Cheesiness Factor: 2/5 Quote From The Film: "Drew, I know your dog died, but get a grip, man, you're freaking me out!" I thoroughly enjoyed the original Pet Sematary, so much that It’s my second favorite horror movie in this point in time, but why did it’s sequel place in the worst horror movie list? Simple, it tried to pull off the same thing it’s prequel did, but it was incredibly boring and not scary in the least. In short, this movie was really bad, so bad that it hurt my feelings. The same plot elements are intact though, a burial ground brings back the dead, only they aren’t the same again. Too bad they couldn’t have made it a decent movie. A teens life is ruined, as the closest person to him in the world dies on a movie set, his mother. Things only get worse when the stepdad kills his dog, the dog is buried and brought back to life in the pet Sematary, only now the dog is hell bent, and hungry for blood. But then the stepdad is killed, so the boy once again buries another being in the Sematary, only the stepdad has a bit more power than the dog when it comes to trying to kill the teenage boy. Things go even more sour, if my memory serves correct the boy realizes that he can bring the person he cherishes the most back to life: his mom. #5 - Silent Night Deadly Night 1984 Cheesiness Factor: 5/5 Quote From The Film: "You see Santa Claus tonight you better run boy, you better run for ya life!" They’ve made horror movies about Leprechauns and other unexpected monsters, so why not make one about someone dressed as Santa Claus? Well that may sound like a good idea on paper, but in reality it bites. Could anyone over 4 years old really be afraid of a man with a belly that shakes like jelly, rosy red cheeks, and a long white beard? Silent Night Deadly Night is a very cheesy movie about a killer dressed as Santa Claus, a terrible movie at that. For god’s sake, why don’t they just make a horror movie out of the jolly green giant? The movie begins with a young boy and his family traveling down a road, they’re stopped by a man dressed up as Santa, this man just got through robbing a local store and killing the clerk, so you know he doesn’t have good intentions. The man rapes the mother, and kills the father, the little boy watches all of this from the bushes. The movie then shows what the boy’s life is like in the future, he grew up in a boarding school, and had social issues. Eventually the man gets ahold of a Santa costume, and kills people on Christmas, but everything is incredibly predictable. #6 - Bride of Chucky 1998 Cheesiness Factor: 4/5 Quote From The Film: "A woman spends all day over a hot stove slaving away for her man. The least he can do is the dishes." Child’s Play is one of those franchises that gets worse and worse with every new installment, strangely enough it took 2 sequels before the movies became almost unwatchable. For all of those that didn’t already know, these movies are about a doll possessed by a serial killer, this doll (Chucky) must desperately try to take over the soul of the first person that he informed of his life to. In the past movies this person has been a little kid, but in Bride of Chucky our man is up to more than just stealing souls, he gets himself hitched. The movie starts out with a woman seeking the body of Chucky, this woman was Chucky’s lover when he was in human form. She finds the doll, and after using some sort of voodoo it comes back to life. Chucky hurts her emotionally when he confesses that he never intended on marrying her, she found the ring by mistake, and so she locks him up in a primitive little cell. Chucky (being the bad boy that he is) escapes and kills her, death isn’t the worst punishment a person can get, so he transfers her into a doll. They terrorize a young couple, get married, and even die together, that basically sums up the whole movie. Sad isn’t it? #7 - Leprechaun 4: In Space 1996 Cheesiness Factor: 5/5 Quote From The Film: "Your shrieks, my dear, provide a perfect accompaniment to this romantic evening." The Leprechaun movies must have an excellent track record to hold 2 places on my list, right? It’s too bad they landed on the worst horror movie list, as I got a bit of entertainment making fun of them. Leprechaun 4 was the movie made right before Leprechaun in the Hood. In some ways, part 4 van be much cheesier than “In the hood”, but part 4 is a bit more entertaining. As you may have guessed, this movie takes place in Space, it is slightly reminiscent to all those bad Science fiction shows, Star Trek is a prime example. A large space ship from earth bears a team of commandos, their mission is to take out the Leprechaun. Upon landing on the planet hosting the Leprechaun. We later learn that the Leprechaun has captured a princess from another planet, he intends on marrying her to become king, but the commandos arrive and the little Lep is faced with a tough decision, but he ultimately sacrifices himself to save the princess. One of the smart commandos decides to urinate on the decapitated head of the Leprechaun only to feel a sudden jolt, the Leprechaun is residing in the man’s penis. And if that doesn’t sound stupid enough for you, you should watch this movie to catch even more horrible scenes like this. #8 - Monkey Shines 1988 Cheesiness Factor: 2/5 Quote From The Film: Quote not Available A monkey can be scary? I think not, but don’t tell that to whomever directed this movie. Basically a monkey can read it’s master’s thoughts, if the master hates someone then the monkey will do it’s best to make sure the person is dead. I think they really tried to make this movie scary, but in the end it turned out to be just another boring movie like so many others in this list. The monkey’s master is paralyzed from the next down, so he can’t exactly do anything to stop his trained monkey from eliminating these people (That sentence sounded so wrong, sorry). The main character in this film likes to get his jog on in the morning, for the added exercise he carries bricks in a backpack as he runs. His jogging days are over though,he gets hit by a car at a hard enough impact to break the bricks, he’s now paralyzed from the neck down. One of his friends suggests that he gets a monkey that can help him around the house, so he does and he grows to like this monkey, but little does he know that the monkey can tell when he hates someone and will do his best to keep the master happy. The way the monkey is killed is so incredibly funny that I can’t describe it to you, you’ll have to find out on your own. #9 - Attack of the Killer Tomatoes Cheesiness Factor: 6/5 Quote From The Film: Quote not Available Definetly the cheesiest movie on the list, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes is sure to bring any fan of horror a couple laughs here and there. I mean come on! It’s tomatoes that have minds of their own! This movie is basically just one big spoof, and how could you not realize it while watching this film? It spoofs some of our favorite horror movies, including jaws and psycho, laughs a plenty in this odd film. I don’t always like cheesy movies though, and this movie tastes a little too much like the rotten milk for my tastes. I haven’t seen this movie for a while, so my memory might be a little off. Oh no the tomatoes are attacking! They are growing to immense sizes and destroying everything in their paths. These tomatoes have the ability to move around freely, kill, and even jump if the need should arise. Not even the military can do a lot to stop them, they just want to sing and dance all day long. If you are into this sort of movie, then by all means go out and watch it, but don’t say I didn’t warn ya if it turns out that you absolutely hate it and loathe the person recommending it to you. #10 - Scream Cheesiness Factor: 2/5 Quote From The Film: ”Now that Billy tried to mutilate her, do you think Sidney would go out with me?” Most people I know throughly enjoyed Scream, as did I, but after thinking about it I realized that I hadn’t even watched the whole movie, I guess I just got bored and found something else to do. To me, Scream is a very boring movie, it’s a slasher film about people who watch too many horror movies. These people reveal all the typical formulas for a horror movies, once you have sex you die, females always run upstairs, etc. The ending, however did turn out to be a shock to me, and I can usually predict everything that happens in most of these films. Do you like scary movies, that’s the line that this movie made famous. The antagonist takes joy in scaring teens by calling them up, scaring them to death over the phone, and then brutally murdering them. The police think they found the guy that did this early on in the film, only after the stalker attempts to kill the guy’s girlfriend, but doesn’t succeed. The movie makes you believe the stalker is one person one second, and then another in the next second, the only reason I watched this whole film was to find out who the real stalker was. I know many people will disagree with me when I said this movie is boring, but that’s just how I felt about it. Other Horror Movies To Avoid The Blob, Cat’s Eye, Child’s Play 3 Creepshow, The Exorcist 2, Leprechaun 2, Motel Hell, Silver Bullet, Troll. That’s the end of this gargantuous review, thank you for reading! Please leave me a comment or send me an email, I enjoy feedback, even if it is in the form of positive critisism. |
