My Bloody Valentine 3D

The Heartbreak Kid
I’m a Ben Stiller fan so I’ve seen almost all his films. I love him most in Meet the Parents and hated him in Zoolander. I must say that I didn’t really like his latest movie The Heartbreak Kid, a remake of a 1972 comedy. Directed by the Farrelly …
Taken (2009) Movie
I heard about this movie from my dad, and I couldn’t stop thinking about it because my dad couldn’t stop talking about it! He said that it was a really good movie… and he was right.

30 Rock Season 2
The second season of 30 Rock was cut short because of the writer’s strike, which is something that I didn’t realize when I first started watching it online through Netflix. Despite the fact that it was missing 5-6 episodes off the regular season length, this was still pretty good. …
House of Wax movie
Not the one to come out earlier this year, but the original 1950s movie with Vincent Price. I believe it was the first film shot in 3D tecnique, but of course that loses its effect if you don’t watch it with 3D-glasses at the theatre, which I didn’t do.
The …

Tamara movie
I ended up watching a movie I never heard of before last night. But, despite the fact it wasn’t well known, the film “Tamara” was actually an OK film.

Cursed (Theatrical Version)
CURSED (Theatrical version)
This cinematic hairball was released in two versions on DVD: R-Rated and unrated.
I’m not sure what the difference is between the two because I saw this mess in theaters and have absolutely no desire to muddle through it again, in any version.
Wes Craven’s first werewolf film is …

Barbie in the 12 Dancing princesses
‘Barbie in the12 Dancing Princesses’ is the cartoon I like best in series about Barbie. All Barbie cartoons are gently, peaceful and suitable for girls.
