A delightful musical. Entertaining from beginning to end, even if you don't know John Waters, although you will appreciate it more if you are an admirer of this director's work. Very much afraid to see the remake.
VIP10Seriously, are people watching a completely different movie than I am or is there something else to this movie that I am missing? It's not scary at all, it throws every (horror)movie cliche there is at the viewer making it extremely predictable and the story is just ridiculous as it stumbles towards a climax which simply isn't there. Just say the demon's name and that's it, it's gone. And the way they 'solve' the case is just too stupid. Put 2 tape recordings together and you get a coherent sentence... So let's just put 2 random sentences together and the case is solved!
How people can seriously give this movie a good rating and comment on how scary it was is beyond me.
Masterfully terrifying. Not just a bunch of jump scares either. The entire atmosphere of this film truly makes your skin crawl.
Finally, a movie in the franchise that feels like the one they intended to make in college. Excellent sound. And it still maintained the humor throughout while amping up the effects, and the violence. Plenty of gore in this one. Definitely a thumbs up. I have to say, as much as #3 was tops for the humor, this one is tops for the creep factor. Great nod to the chainsaw.
Rushed the end a bit (just like the first one) but overall it was good..
1st part came with a deep story about loneliness and the issues arising because of it. 2nd part was not a continuation and just a forced movie with no story or strong meaning
Stupid movie, but I was laughing the whole time. First one (Dream Girl) had better story.
Saw this on the same day like the other British minority driven ‘music’ movie and I gotta say this is vastly better. “Yesterday” is first and foremost a comedy while I’d put “Blinded by the light” in the drama category, so they are not easily comparable. However in terms of heart and substance this easily wins the day. As an avid Springsteen fan this movie spoke to me in many ways but I am sure you will enjoy this even if you have never listened to The Boss. I remember when I first heard his music. I must have been just a bit older than Javed. The lyrics spoke to me right from the start. 9/10
Not the typical film I’d watch, but I’m glad I did...loved it.
Not only nostalgic as I was the same age when the film was set, but I loved the positive message it gives and a true sense of climate of the mid to late 80’s.
There’s actually nothing not to like, give it a watch ;)

GOTTA SAY THIS IS ONE HUNDRED PERCENT TRUE.
VIP5Descendants: The Rise of Red (2024) - :heart:x4
These seem to just keep getting worse. Music is worse, and the storyline is the same tired theme as the others. I think enough is enough.
How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!
I’m not religious in anyway but despite that I thought this was ok. Some of the music scenes were decent but it’s kinda forgettable.
VIP4Not the beat horror movie by any stretch but it wasn’t GOD awful. It’s funny that Jeffrey Dean Morgan starred in this movie cause it reminded me of a episode from Supernatural. Where people believed that a blind preacher had the ability to heal people but it was actually a reaper trading a life for a life. That episode was better than this movie
Wait... so the guy is stuck in this clown costume, right? The amount of POOP that has accumulated in the back of his drawers is the single most horrifying element of this film.
The last 30 minutes absolutely ruined the movie, turning the victimized sister into a superhuman boogieman. WTF were they thinking?!?
That's not empowerment. That's vilifying victims of abuse, and perpetuating the stigma of "broken" people.
VIP8It has a very unique style. I feel exhausted after watching this. The editing was almost too much. So much was going on. The cinematography was great. I never felt comfortable. Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis were the perfect mass murdering couple. Robert Downey Jr. was great at playing the tv anchor.
WOW what a great piece of filmmaking!
Absolutely hallucinating and disturbing trip with one of the most insane characters that I've ever seen! Every single character on this film has serious problems!
Crazy camera angles, the changing from color to black and white, the flashes all combined with a lot of symbolisms and critics about society.
Woody Harrelson, Juliette Lewis, Robert Downey Jr and Tommy Lee Jones have fantastic performances, everyone of them shine in their own scenes!
So maniac, so wild, so different, that's what makes this so great!
Macabra, espeluznante, bizarra y humor negro. Lars Von Trier arruinó mi noche de sueño.
VIP8You've got to love dark comedies. I found it to be quite enjoyable I particularly enjoyed Lars' take on Dante's Inferno. However, it is apparent that Lars used this movie to indulge himself, perhaps a little too much.
A loved it so much. So funny and sick. The end was so interesting.
VIP8This is fucked up and I kinda loved it. It is surprisingly funny in a I'm a terrible human being way. Matt Dillon is great.
My Review of ‘Misery’ in 3 Sentences:
After this rewatch, I was reminded even more how incredible Kathy Bates is.
After this rewatch, it dawned on me that Paul Sheldon handled everything rather calmly the entire time.
This will always be one of the best Stephen King films.
Honestly, the book was much better, I watched this movie right after the book. The book was more terrifying, Annie was scarier, some parts in the movie was different from the book, and I felt like Annie: "this isn't what happened!". But I understand, the movies sometimes are different from the books for many reasons.
For those who question if book is needed to be read, I think you'd love the book if you enjoyed the movie.
A police film that perhaps has more ambitions than what it finally manages to create. Heavily influenced by the texture of Korean thrillers, it leads to a somewhat confusing story that feels more atmospheric than truly elaborate. As the investigation becomes darker, it also progressively loses its pacing, and conveys the feeling of wanting to be more than what it finally is. Special mention to the excellent design of a poster that references Edvard Munch in an unexpectedly appropriate way.
The tune of the color, sound, framing & even dialog is so mesmerizing. But I don’t get it.
VIPKiri, kiri, kiri, kiri...
Eihi Shiina is creepy as Asami Yamazaki. One of the most terrifying woman in a film I've ever seen!
Anyway, I didn't mind the slow pace of this film. It led me to a false sense of security, what could go wrong, what will happen, what has Takashi Miike in store for us. I was relaxing, drinking my morning milk until suddenly that freaking sack moved and almost spilled my milk. Such a great jump scare. And damn, what she was hiding in that sack! Worst pet ever!
Like almost nothing in horror films give me shivers anymore, not really, but damn those needles? Can't stand to watch that somehow! And yes, Asami, you are right,that wire did cut through meat and bone easily.
I agree with every review here that Audition is a film you need to watch without knowing anything beforehand. It is a amazing slowly paced film with two great performances and amazing direction by Miike!
Kiri, kiri, kiri, kiri!
One of my favorites and funniest of Audrey's films. Every re-watch is a delight!
The plot takes a while to develop into the full sci-fy/horror/thriller that this movie most deffenitly IS! The build up is needed very much, so we can get into John's mind. It was also a hit at the festivals, which usually is a good indicator. A very enjoyable movie to day the least!
