Legend of the Bog (2009)

Posted in horror with tags , , , , on 16 July, 2009 by Z!

A British horror movie w/ Vinnie Jones in the main role… but while The Midnight Meat Train was a decent effort this one is a stinker. I couldn’t even watch it through.

Rating: -/10

Flightplan (2005)

Posted in thriller with tags , , , , on 22 May, 2009 by Z!

What if your kid get lost on an airplane during a transatlantic flight? An interesting scenario that unfortunately this film doesn’t really give justice to.

Låt den rätte komma in (2008)

Posted in mystery, romance with tags , , , , , , on 1 February, 2009 by Z!

Horror movie, love story or a children’s tale? A 12 year old lonely boy falls in love with a vampire of the same age. Blood, drama and romance are perfectly balanced in this Swedish movie that approaches the topic in a completely new way.

Rating: 7/10

Eagle Eye (2008)

Posted in action with tags , , , , , on 31 January, 2009 by Z!

Big-Brother-is-watching-you type of movie with a well over the top plot. If I could just figure out why does a computer with ultimate super power and control over most electronic devices have to set up a really complicated assassination attempt on anyone instead of doing it the easy way?

Rating: 5/10

The Alphabet Killer (2008)

Posted in crime, thriller with tags , , , , on 23 December, 2008 by Z!

Based on the true story of the Rochester serial killer that chose his/her victims after their double initials. The case has never been solved but unfortunately the movie leaves very little to solve as well by being too predictable.

Rating: 6/10
