Sono Sartana, il vostro becchino (1969)
Plot has more holes than one of Sartana's victims
Good idea but the execution is terrible. It's a continuous stream of Sartana getting a contact name through torture and then moving on to the next person.
The plot holes are terrible to the point the film doesn't make sense. Why would someone hunt Sartana for two-thirds of the film for the reward money to pay off a debt but then walk away when they are in the same room and the debt is doubled? - it doesn't matter.
How does Sartana know what every contact looks like, even though they have never met before? - it doesn't matter.
How does everyone chasing Sartana know where his next location is? - it doesn't matter.
How does Sartana know the next person to get info from if he has not been told? - it doesn't matter.
I don't know if it's the dubbing but half the time it didn't make sense.
It Comes at Night (2017)
This is NOT a horror
One of the worst films I have seen for a long time. No tension, no horror and no story. Ive never known a 90 minute film drag so much.
Just like in A Girls Walks Home Alone At Night the only character worth caring about was the pet.
A Star Is Born (2018)
Dull film with flimsy, shallow story and characters
I don't know where to start with this and i don't understand all the rave reviews. Apart from Bradley Cooper all the characters lacked any depth, none of the relationships were expanded upon or fleshed out, the dialogue was mostly mumbled and some of the characters actions just didn't make sense. Why did Jackson's brother come back? Why did Jackson kill himself after getting clean? (If it was because he thought he was an embarassment to Ally then most husbands would have attempted suicide many times!), why did everyone take this rollercoaster story in their stride?
The film lacked depth and any cohesion. its too long and very boring.
Don't waste your time
Annabelle: Creation (2017)
Nothing new here
If you like films with things moving on their own and things switching themselves on then this is the film for you. Very run of the mill and its all been done many times before and many times better. If you want to a decent doll-come-to-life film then watch The Boy instead
Eden Lake (2008)
Could easily be a Channel 5 documentary
I won't reiterate the sadistic, nasty nature of this film but opinion does seem to be very polarizing. I'm guessing the people who enjoyed it are, like me, Brits and can relate to it - we all know families similar to the ones in the film!
Ray Harryhausen: Special Effects Titan (2011)
great film if you are of a certain age
If watched fantasy movies in the 60s and 70s then you will know Harryhausen's work. Agreed that it now looks dated but back then it was cutting edge and the only way to bring monsters to life. Unfortunalty his work was rendered almost obsolete when Star Wars came along and changed everything.
Touching tributes from various top level directors but you do sometimes question the level of reverance expressed toward Harryhausen and the importance of his work.
Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (2016)
The plot...Run, run, fight, fight
Alice is told to do something. Run, run, fight, fight. Meets some people from a previous film. More running and fighting She meets some people who explains what's been happening. She does what she needs to do in the nick of time
THE END.
Sinister 2 (2015)
most pointless sequel EVER!
The point of a horror sequel is to answer the questions that the first film left hanging or to expand on the story - this did neither. All questions of who and why the murders took place were all answered in the first film so in this film we know who the murderers would be and why and, considering we could see the ghost guiding them from the very beginning, this removed all suspense from the film - at every point in the film we knew what was going to happen next and how it was going to end. watching the "snuff" films in the first film were, naturally, disturbing - in this film they were just dumb and STILL didn't explain how a young child could tie up every other member of their family before killing them. About as "sinister" as the Teletubbies and just as predictable.
