Seeing it's Valentines Day - My Bloody Valentine
Seriously I don't know why I do this to myself, masochistic maybe.
I'm tempted to write that it is the worst piece of shit that I've ever had the misfortune to watch but sadly that isn't true although it's certainly in the bottom couple percentile.
The biggest problem ,as with most films of this ilk ,is a total disregard for logic.
Why does it take the hero/heroine 2 minutes to run around the store but the killer 2 seconds?
Why when, as a policewoman you are about to enter a house containing the most evil,sadistic ,unstoppable killer in the history of unstoppable ,evil ,sadistic killers do you not call and wait for backup?
This kind of lazy,unconcerned storytelling is what separates merely bad from truly awful .
1/10 the perpetrators deserve a pick-axe to the skull.
One last observation incredibly incompetent director notwithstanding Jensen Ackles seriously can't act.
Who'd have thunk that out of the Supernatural duo Jared Padalecki would be the more talented one.
Re: What is the latest movie you watched and what did you think of it?
such angst toward the horror film genre. seems sum ppl can never be satisfied. it's not supposed to have great acting. it's purpose is blood. been awhile since i've seen it, but i know it wasn't 1/10 bad. maybe i'm wrong especially seeing how i do favor the occasional terribad movie.

Why such low standards?
It's certainly possible to satisfy your craving for Karo syrup and Red Dye #2 within the framework of a well written, well acted movie...those are not mutually exclusive demands.
Re: What is the latest movie you watched and what did you think of it?
Effective horror demands a suspension of disbelief.
Paint the screen red with blood and hang various organs from the rafters all you want but silliness never made me think twice before turning out the lights before I go to bed.
Suggest you aquatint yourself with the term "pandering"
Re: What is the latest movie you watched and what did you think of it?
lol, low standards? don't believe it is. i don't mind silly horror films.
pandering is exactly the point of said films in the first place. perhaps YOU should acquaint yourself with the term?
Re: What is the latest movie you watched and what did you think of it?
children of men
the climax man , i mean man .. the climax :unsure:

Excuse me I was confused and thought that maybe someone somewhere along the line wasn't looking to simply sate the bloodlust of a certain cross-section of the population that by inexperience or psychosis don't have an actual clue that human suffering in itself is not entertainment.I thought maybe they had hoped in some tiny part of their soul to tell, if not a worthwhile then at least a coherent story .
If suffering and dismemberment is that is all you are looking for then hopefully the purveyors of such trash will make another pandering movie otherwise maybe buy a scanner and cruise accident scenes.
