Single Sentence Movie Review

Though the subject matter presents good possibilities, Stopmotion ends up being a little too cookie cutter in its plot and its borrowing of abusive parent tropes to dig up new ground. #HorrorMovies #amc+ #shudder

Ah, Deathstalker and the golden days of fantasy movies, when peasant women wore thongs under their sackcloth, rape was a past time for hero and villain alike, and no actress got a part unless they were going to show their tits.

Good to see the return of the V/H/S franchise is generally of higher quality and consistency than the first three, though that consistency make the 99 anthology entries a little more cookie cutter in storyline, except for the Flying Lotus contribution, which is batshit crazy!

After a needed hiatus in the series, V/H/S/94 manages a decent crop of found footage pieces (though with a pretty nonsensical frame), and notably a batshit crazy offering from Indonesia’s Timo Tjahjanto, to revive interest again in further installments. #horrormovie

Bigtime respect and praise to Nacho Vigalondo for his utterly oddball segment that twists multiverse stories before there was even a craze, but unfortunately this gem gets sandwiched amongs a heap of tired faux-foundfootage in V/H/S: Viral. #HorrorMovies #halloween2024

Caveat was nicely creepy but suffered from a boggling plot twist, but alas Damian Mc Carthy doubled down with his next one, Oddity, and forgot that revenge itself always leads to messy outcomes but revenge plots don’t. #horroctober #HorrorMovies #Halloweenmovies

Though the logic of the infection itself is a little obfuscated (except maybe as meth-cautionary?), MadS uses the best vibes of Noé’s Climax and [REC], though does come out being a little more imitative than fully inventive. #HorrorMovies #HorrorFan #HalloweenHorrorNights

If you were to ask how much more French you can find than She Is Conann, I would have to say that there is little more French you could put into it, that you will have hit the epitome of Frenchness and so therefore no, there is none more French to be had than She Is Conann.

Dinner party horror turns itself to 11 for the original Speak No Evil (2022), which looks at how etiquette and not wanting to offend and even our own empathy can be weaponized (in the wrong direction) by those who are manipulative and heartless enough to use it. #HorrorMovies

While it makes sense that Time Bandits was canceled so quickly, as it lacked much in the way of plot and over time also lost the great vibe of Waititi’s knack for widening representation, I can’t help but feel that stretching it to ten episodes was a set up for failure.
