Here’s an attempt of Director Lee Demarbre and Writer Ian Driscoll which you wouldn’t find anything less than intriguing. You would certainly be amused by the newfangled idea put forth by the makers of this movie which serves as a satire on filmdom.
Director Able Whitman’s (David Hess) latest film receives an unfavourable review owing to its poor quality, lack of substance and oddity in special effects. Totally let down by this unprofitable venture, he tries to find some comfort in a strip club and when he meets the stripper, Gigi Stops, he decides to walk away with her. On their way home, the two meet with an accident, the stripper dies while Able manages to survive. Convinced that he would find himself in trouble if he didn’t hide the body, he works out a plan to save his neck. He decides to use the body parts in his latest horror flick that is in progress to bring some realism. The film emerges as a mega hit and enjoys an unprecedented success. Carried away by the turn of events, Able makes up his mind to kill people and use the corpses for a similar purpose in all his future endeavors.
This movie has plenty to offer, you must especially take notice of Hess’ performance which is far superior to the rest of the crew.
Tom (Michael Hampton) has an unsuccessful career in songwriting but that’s not the main cause for worry. What really disturbs him is the house for which he is a caretaker. The eerie thing about the basement is a hand which grows into an arm and eventually develops into a person (Ryan Sterling) for whom Tom becomes the sole provider and the two have a healthy relationship. Concurrently with this uncanny encounter, Tom is head over heels in love with beautiful Veronica (Devon Iott) who happens to be the sweetheart of Tom’s neighbor, Philip (Chase Hemphill). Not only that, Veronica’s life is dotted with mystery. This leaves Tom in a state of perplexity and he’s unable to reach a satisfactory decision.
Directed by Graham Ratliff and written by Garett Ratliff, the film would have worked better had it been a little purposive. Looks like the fault is with the screenplay, at times the conversation between Philip and Veronica seems gratuitously long.
Grace is a first rate horror flick which evokes an uneasy feeling in the audience with ease and that’s what sets it apart from other horror pictures. In his directorial debut, writer-director Paul Solet has conceived an idea, the supremacy of which lies in the fact that it relies less on gore and draws the viewer’s attention on the characters instead.
Jordan Ladd ( starred also in Death Proof), plays Madeleine, the expectant mother who has her husband and unborn baby killed in an accident. Unable to come to terms with her earlier two lost pregnancies and the recent mishap, she insists on carrying the dead child and yearns for her child to come back alive. On the child coming back to life, Madeleine finds that she has the most strange child to nurse. From the beginning the child manifests an odd behaviour. But what’s most unsettling is that the child’s appetite has to be satisfied with more than just milk.
With a runtime of about 1 hour 53 minutes and directed by Ernest Johnson, this action-driven flick stars Tyrone Burton, Brian Hall, Aron Andre Frazier. Slim, Ralph and Cory are three young men who are involved in the business of recovering sophisticated and expensive autos that are actually tough to fetch back on account of lack of payments. The present assignment of Slim is to retrieve a pastor’s car failing which he has to meet dire consequences.
This is a sequel to the one released in 2005. But this time Uwe Boll is not the director. The duo Michael Roesch and Peter Scheerer have worn the two hats of writer and director. Edward Carnby teams up with a group of witch hunters in search of the dangerous witch Elisabeth Dexter. The movie could have been a lot better than it is. Michael Pare and Danny Trejo have been wasted in their small roles. I have mixed feelings about the movie and doubt if horror fans would find this as one generating the needed chills and thrills. Anyway watch it and send in your feedback.
