Psycho 1998 version

Shutter (UR, 2008)
I had rented the Thai version of this film and was really disappointed with how shallow the American remake was. First of all, Joshua Jackson (of “Dawson’s Creek”, “Skulls”) is the lead character. I was not even aware of who his co-star is. …
Catch and Release
In the movie “Catch and Release” we see the actress, Jennifer Garner with a sad face most of the time, but believe me this movie is by far not boring. One can describe best “Catch and Release” as a romantic movie about relationships and trust ideal for both women …

Dazed and confused movie
This is one in the long row of films depicting the teenage high school life, this time when the teenagers are graduating. The characters here are very cliche-like as you might have expected. There’s the tough guy, the beauty queen, the nerd, the good-looking guy who wants to be …

Come Back, Little Sheba movie
Come Back, Little Sheba is a classic black and white film made in 1952. When I first heard about this movie, I really thought Come Back, Little Sheba was about little more than a lost dog and his heartbroken owner. Come Back, Little Sheba is beautifully done, even though …
Ratatouille
I hate rats so I wasn’t so keen on watching the animated movie Ratatouille. But constant prodding by my bestfriend to see the movie made me give in. Plus the fact that alot of people say it’s a nice movie. Indeed it is. From Pixar Animation Studios and Walt …
Big Man on Campus movie
What a silly movie. Obviously, it was inspired by “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” in some weird way. The movie begins with students talking about sightings of some monster on campus. The descriptions of the monster vary, and it is clear that some of the “witnesses” are simply making …

In the avalanche of poor films of 2010, I thought to bring to your attention a film from 2009, which, if you missed it somehow, it would worth seeing it in the weekend.

This review is for a movie called Firehouse, which is not to be confused with Richard Dean Anderson’s Firehouse movie of 25 years later. However, whereas in 1997 it was women having to deal with being accepted, in this 1973 version, it’s African Americans struggling to break in …

Revenge of the Bridesmaids Movie (2010)
This was a cute little made for tv movie. It is intended for a younger audience if I had to guess. I would say it is appropriate for the ages 8 and up. It has little inappropriate humor, no bad language and only a …
The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb
I picked up The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb because it was cheap ($6.44) and because it looked somewhat interesting, if a bit derivative. Derivative is right, this two-part mini-series steals liberally from both the Indiana Jones franchise as well as the Mummy series.
Does the Curse of King …

Columbo: Murder, Smoke and Shadows movie

Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla
Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla had the potential to be an exciting and incredible Godzilla movie in my eyes, but something truly ruined it: the overuse of beam and energy weapons.

Springtime in the Rockies movie
Springtime in the Rockies from 1937 is a movie I have heard about for a very long time, but believe it or not, even with its marvelous song, I have never seen it, until now.
The song that is sung at the beginning is awesome. I love the harmony …

While heading the design credit for ‘Vacancy’, director Nimród Antal debut in the United States, it will remind Thriller classic Alfred Hitchkock in 1960, ‘Psycho’.

Black Christmas, movie (1974)
Slasher movies based on holidays are so commonplace that they have become cliched. Thankskilling, April Fool’s Day, Halloween, Leprechaun, Uncle Sam, and My Bloody Valentine are some of the big examples. All we need are movies for Yom Kippur and Colombus Day. Heck, some can make …
