Virus Undead (2008)
if you're not American, don't try to sound like one!
where to start, i actually liked several aspects of this film. the effects weren't half bad and the nudity, although brief, was very sweet on the eyes...
the story didn't really hang together in my eyes, it was an attempt to involve a lot of different aspects and i sort of missed the whole point of the film. the story was quite lacking in imagination, the acting was quite bad - a bunch of Germans trying to sound extremely American by simply using the f**k word in almost every sentence does NOT take away the heavy German accent, OK guys? - and several scenes really called for a LOT more reaction from these stone faced actors.
Sure it's a horror film and I'm not expecting DeNiro to step in, but come on, at least PRETEND to be actors, OK? 4/10, that's all.. Nice cinematography though...
Laid to Rest (2009)
Decent film, horrible acting by Bobbi Sue Luther
let me first say i liked a lot of aspect in this film and i would have given it at least an 7 or 8 if it wasn't for the awful acting of Bobbi Sue Luther, who to no surprise was the producer cause that is probably the only reason she ended up getting the lead in this film. I have rarely seen such a horrible performance, even given that this is a horror film. She should stick to the extra work she's done previously cause obviously that's where she does it the best - in the background.
Having said that I still watched the film till the end even though there wasn't really anything new or original about it, but on the other hand something did have me amazed and i cannot quite say what it was.
If you're into horror and you can live with a horrible lead actress' performance, you should watch this film.
Like I said I'd have given it a 7 but the performance Bobbi Sue Luther lowered it to a 5, sorry..
The Horror Vault 2 (2009)
Fantastic morbid humor!
Just as the first Horror Vault, I thoroughly enjoyed the second one as well. Same concept, although there was a lot more humor in the second one, which was a welcome addition I thought.
Especially "Dead Chick in The Closet" made me laugh (in a good way), but "Invasion of Privacy" certainly also had a twist at the end that made me smile..
All in all 79 minutes well spend, and those 79 minutes might be the only real problem with the film - it's a bit too short, compared to the first one which reached nearly two hours, but it's still 79 minutes of nice entertainment.
