video review : 28 Days Later

A bicycle courier named Jim awakes in an empty hospital to discover he’s in the midst of a zombie apocalypse. That’s the gist of the plot as he goes on to meet other survivors. The infected creatures they encounter are particularly scary because they’re fast and aggressive. The uninfected ones are even worse. Their dreadful predicament is resolved too conveniently in the end, even for a horror flick, but it’s a riveting journey all the way.

audio review : Heil Hitler ( song ) … Kanye West

The title, as a response from Kanye West to the countless naysayers he’s accumulated as of late; mainly sensitive Jews; is quite brilliant. The song itself, which comes across more like a demo without a second verse, isn’t far behind. That’s thanks not to the crude lyrics; the “nigga” bits are redundant; but the catchy vocal melodies. This is a sociopolitical anthem of sorts.

video review : Creepshow 3

video review : Creepshow 3

Creepshow 3, which should’ve come out in 1992; the first two were fours years apart; is worse than 2 but better than 1. The best story is the simplest; the one about The Professor’s Wife. It at least has a decent story arc. The Radio and The Haunted Dog are downright stupid, though the latter’s protagonist does manage to provide some laughs.

video review : Honeydew

video review : Honeydew

Honeydew is sweet and suspenseful, well on its way to being a good horror movie, for about the first half hour. That’s when you start to realize too much time is going by without anything (significant) happening. From there it’s a mundane affair as couple Riley and Sam get served by a crazy hag named Karen and her scrawny dining partner.

video review : Vacancy 2 [ The First Cut ]

video review : Vacancy 2 [ The First Cut ]

The trembly camera is a tad annoying and the plotting is somewhat hackneyed, but this Vacancy sequel, which serves as a prequel, is a decent follow-up. It’s not as thrilling as the original; part Twos rarely are; but there’s enough suspense to keep you checked in. The protagonist this time around is a “hillbilly” named Jessica staying at the Meadow View Inn with her fiancé and his friend.
