Let's watch a scary movie together

Review of Albino Farm



OK, I've basically watched enough of this movie, I'm at 53 minutes in and movie is 1:23 minutes long, but I've basically watched enough.

It's not the worst horror movie but nor is it the best.

Some few notes

1. Starts off as if could really be another 'classic' horror movie in the tradition of the Texas Chain saw, but then with introduction of main characters, quickly takes on the whole 'Friday the 13th, typical college student victims type of feel.

2. Two main male characters, the blonde guy is a bit to obnoxious for my taste, they're just a bit to silly, and the other male (and this is a first) is like a hulky Indian Student, as in from India or that area with the accent and all, so kind of like 'India guy meets middle America'...

They make it work though, I mean after all a big bulk of college students now days are foreign, and are indeed from that part of the world, but not sure if in real life such a guy would be hanging out with that crowd, maybe, but don't see it much at least not on film.

It's one of those movies that just teeters on either being really good or really bad, this one teeters more on the almost really good, if just a few more fine tweaks to it.

Also, Movie runs to long, in my opinion, cause after main horror revealed, then it just becomes like any other slasher horror movie, and if have scene 'The hills have eyes', than well.

So with movie, watching it after a certain point can just cut brain off and glide to the finish as far as how many ways can college students be slashed and killed by crazy people in the woods.
And of course there are some unrealistic scenes, of course, like Boyfriend (blonde guy) asking his girlfriend to get in a car with 3 stranger males who are totally rural land types.

But not before he asks her to 'flash them' as part of payment request...OK, I doubt many boyfriends would be that 'loose' with their girlfriends, but oh well, it's a movie.

That aside, from 1-7 I give it a 5.5 by today's standards.

It's decent and has some original ideas up and until around the 50 minute mark, then it's just stuff you've probably seen in countless other movies, beautiful college gals getting chased by monsters, and we already pretty much know the males never make it out alive.

Now onto the next movie.

Only watched about half of Hansel and Gretel, and will say it's pretty violent, you'd never think a movie with such a title would depict violence like it does, I mean sure, yes, a witch that likes to eat people, but in the past subtle enough to be made into a mild's book.

But there's nothing 'mild like' about this movie, that's for sure, people getting baked alive and all, wow...

And Hansel and Gretel are all grown up as well, it's like an adult version of Hansel and Gretel.

I'm only about half way through the movie, but reached the predictable part of the movie, in that once the victims get the upper hand, you can pretty much predict how any movie will go from there.

Every movie kind of the same in that build the villain up first half of movie, then second half of movie watch villain fall...and it's the second half of movies you can usually predict do to that flow.

The Witching - 2016



This one is decent, came out in 2016 but as usual I missed it's premiere.

It's shot kind of like 'Tales from the Crypt', in that's it's a bunch of short scary movies strung together and told by a group of campers while they sit around fire at night.

If you like short tales of horror, than this movie is for you.

The Wrong House



This one seems decent, and it's a newer release, but only about 12 minutes into it so far.

The fact that I lasted that long should tell you it's a decent scary/horror movie.

And the fact that up to now, it's not predictable like so many other scary movies are.

The movie feels 'fresh', as in something you haven't seen before, at least to me it does.

And the characters are 'blue collar', again that makes it more relatable.

Anyways watch and enjoy, I'm going to finish watching it now, or some, if not I'll finish it tomorrow.

Ghost Note



This one seems very weird, I posted it here cause I'm still watching after 5 minutes, that's usually when can tell if a movie is worth watching or not, and so far this one is just 'odd'.

No promises I'll like or even watch the whole movie, but as of now, just the beginning of it alone fits into the spookiness of the 'Zone'.

The thing in the Mist



This is actually one worth viewing..kind of more sci fi/horror...but still full of symbolism, back when big star actors were willing to be cast in such type movies.
