I haven’t seen the original so I can’t compare. I will say that this movie is not particularly good.

An early sound horror film divided in several episodes, directed by different people. These are stories told by a bunch of people who meet in the beginning of the film. They are all supernatural in some sense. Most of these episodes are quite mediocre and doesn’t interest me a …
Father of the Bride

The Unsinkable Molly Brown movie
As movie musicals go, The Unsinkable Molly Brown is unsinkable. It’s a marvelously well done movie with Debbie Reynolds and Harve Presnell in the leads. As for being biographical on the real Molly Brown, many liberties were taken. We get a wonderful happy ending here, but …

Birdemic Shock and Terror, Blu-ray Romantic Horror film

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
It’s really a shame that I never had a film of Harry Potter with the status of a perfect movie. Each story is so strong, before or after you have never truly inclusive workplace. Of course, the three-ACT-structure can be used, but no information or knowledge to come, but …

Unearthed, horror film by Matthew Leutwyler
Matthew Leutwyler hopes to strike it big again with Unearthed. The movie Leutwyler wrote, Dead & Breakfast, was a classic. Instead of following the same formula Leutyyler went with a different approach, one in which that will bore horror movie goers for years to come.
Unearthed feels like a …
Over Her Dead Body
I decided to watch “Over Her Dead Body” because I read about the movie story and thought it was an interesting one. After watching it, I ended up disappointed because the movie fails to win over the audience. The comic moments in this romantic comedy are simply half baked!

I’m not a big fan of Quentin Tarantino so before I saw Kill Bill Volume 1, I didn’t really know what to expect (I failed to watch the much talked about Pulp Fiction). I’m sure glad I watched it because it’s truly one of the most engaging movies I’ve …

American Honey (2016 Drama Road Film)
