Before there were The Strangers, there was a French film doing it better, and its name was ILS. I loved this movie when I saw it for the first time. Maybe it was the fact that it was a different language, it added a different edge to it. I can’t explain it, but you if […]

The Den (2013)
I just had to review this movie I found on NetFlix. Surprisingly fun. Here’s our premise, a student named Elizabeth, wants to do a study for a grant. She will record everything on her PC, including her webcam chats. She is going to visit a site called TheDen and it’s basically chat roulette. This teacher […]
Preservation (2014)
Just scanning through IMDB briefly, I saw mentions of this being lousy and references to Eden Lake and Them. OK, I’m sold! I’m getting comfy. I don’t anticipate writing much. Every time I say that I write 20 paragraphs, but you never know. Well, this opening music is kinda irritating. It’s just instrumental but annoying. […]
Mockingbird (2014)
This is on NetFlix, it piqued my interest, and I like clowns. Soooo there. 1995 We hear somebody screaming that they did what “they” wanted, and it was a kid in the bathroom, and then he gets shot in the dome. OK, cool. The Family A guy found a video camera on the doorsteps, and […]
I liked the original The Strangers, but always preferred ILS (Them). I was surprised that it took this long for a sequel. In hindsight, I wish this never got made. A family of four, Cindy (Christina Hendricks), Mike, Kinsey, and Luke, go on a vacation or trip before the family is sending Kinsey to boarding school. […]
The Strangers (2008)
Here’s a movie I want to love. Raylene is scared of it, so obviously there’s a part of me that has to love it. Sadly, it’s not that good, especially after the first time you view it, it loses a lot of it’s luster. Another issue is I had seen Them, the French movie that […]
Hush (2016)
First of all, this is from the director of Oculus, and that is a good thing in my opinion. If you don’t like Home Invasion style horror, avoid this. This is about a deaf lady, Maddie, who is a writer, and she is being harassed by one dude, in a mask. It is a terrifying […]
