Gripping. This word describes it the best and it’s the best part of this movie. It teases so well that I literally felt gripped in the chest. Quite an achievement…

You gonna love it or hate it. I missed a better scenario, but still liked it. It‘s all about the style and the music and uhm.. fetish. Solid acting and…

An improvement from Blue Ruin – the previous movie of this director. Here he manages to make everything look real and that’s the main drive for the movie.

After India’s father dies, her Uncle Charlie, who she never knew existed, comes to live with her and her unstable mother. She comes to suspect this mysterious, charming man has ulterior motives and becomes increasingly infatuated with him.

I’ve always liked Chan Wook Park’s films. Mostly, for the cinematography – there are master directors in his league, but I haven’t seen the better ones. This movie is no…

A new drug promises out-of-body experiences, but users are coming back changed forever, and an otherworldly invasion of Earth is underway.

Just like the title, this movie is hilarious and great. The best thing is how they keep stupid faces no matter what, but never crosses the line into the stupid…

A nice finding on a TV. It’s a classic horror story with a good script and the right spirit for such movies.

Two hillbillies are suspected of being killers by a group of paranoid college kids camping near the duo’s West Virginian cabin. As the body count climbs, so does the fear and confusion as the college kids try to seek revenge against the pair.

Another messed up, but not messed up comedy. There’s light absurdism thorough the movie, not too serious, not too stupid, what makes it very fun to watch for black comedy…

A group of people are trapped in an elevator high above Philadelphia, and one of them is the devil.

Just read the summary and notice Shyamalan as a script writer. Yah, that’s good. One of the best beginnings I’ve seen, and the movie doesn't get boring.

One of the most interesting horror thrillers. I see how people could call this confusing and unfinished, but it develops such a great mystery that I actually don’t need an…
