Tucker and Dale vs Evil (2010)
A real Gem
If you want special effects, lazer blasts,monsters, fast cars and sexy girls.....this hilarious movie is not for you. If you want a laugh a minute, funny one liners, excellent comic moments and a little "horror" moments. Then look no further. When I first saw this with my wife, we just laughed our butts off. Set in West Virginia, the old hillbilly/college weirdos in the woods setting. With a big turn around...you have the usual college kids woods flashback to a previous back woods story....But this outing has two ordinary guys Tucker and Dale heading off to their very own broken down cabin for a vacation, drink beer, fish and fixing up their cabin. Then enter the college kids, who take it that our two guys are killing hillbillies and set out to do the nasty first with hilarious results. That's the plot, all I will say is this.....wood-chipper.... I never get sick of watching this movie, acting,dialogue,action,comedy,and total misunderstanding abound are fabulous. The writers hit pure genius with this one....thanks to all for pure entertainment, laughs and enjoyment.
Dead Rising: Endgame (2016)
Good use of story and actors
I'm an avid movie fan....ANY movie fan. So I want to say something about the 2 Dead Rising movies, Watchtower and EndGame.
I enjoyed the first outing of Watchtower, it left me with wanting more, I get bored with constant Zombie attacks and munching down on the unfortunate, and just running around gnarling and falling to pieces here and there. Watchtower HAS a story to it, something to keep me interested.
The acting although not Hollywood style, it has a fine leading actor, fine leading actress, the dialogue is strong, the interaction between the survivors works very well. a mix of comedy / horror / thriller and action all work at the right places.and yes I loved the opening cop and clown scene Then came Endgame, now this was something I could get my teeth into (pardon the pun),introducing new actors into the mix really worked well, again the mix of the comic/horror/thriller and action scenes were great,I also liked the FEZA angle (FEMA)...if you missed the connection..take another look. The action comes thick and fast, the dialogue same way, the fight scene in the operating room is excellent...if that was me...yeah I too would use anything and everything I could get my hands on...terrific. The story carries on from the first movie, not from day one,but it all ties in very well, friends are reunited and the bad guys are....well watch it and see. It was good to see a cameo role from Billy Zane as the doctor, good job.
As conspiracy movies go, this uses a different angle, it's not in your face angle..very subtle.
All in all...if you watch these 2 movies back to back...comes the end credits....I promise you will want more.
Bait (2012)
Interesting angle
OK, not a real fan of present day shark mania movies (Atomic Shark, Ice Shark and so on)but this has something going for it, good acting, good cinematography,good script.
I think of it as a cross platform movie, meaning it's a cross between Stephen King's The Mist and Peter Benchley's Jaws. An interesting angle of horror and tension and of course the antagonist...Mr Shark.
visual effects well above par for a "low budget" movie. the people behind the making of the movie definitely have talent, as do the actors.
If you are stuck for a really good movie, and have watched the cream of them...then sit back and have a good night in with popcorn and enjoy.
Lavalantula (2015)
Good clean fun
I watched this movie, and at first thought...OK Steve Gutenberg has made a movie..then I watched Lavalantula 2....then went back and started from the beginning.....total fun. The references to the Police Academy and Jurassic Park and various other movies was great. Big budget it is not, top notch effects it has not...but good clean fun...plenty of. Story line is as you might imagine a total flop...the acting was not taken seriously...the actors knew this was a TV movie and had fun with it. The plot center's around earthquakes, lava, and of course monsters...here they are lava breathing spiders. Special effects were..well cheesy and if you don't smile or chuckle with this movie...then you are not a movie fan. I gave it a high rating because it entertained the hell out of me. That's the whole point though right?
