- DirectorTi WestStarsRider StrongNoah SeganAlexi WasserA high school prom faces a deadly threat: a flesh-eating virus that spreads via a popular brand of bottled water.Not the same director, not the same cast (of course, except for one person). Pretty much an unnecessary drawn out horror flick.
- DirectorJack SholderStarsRobert EnglundMark PattonKim MyersA teenage boy is haunted in his dreams by deceased child murderer Freddy Krueger, who is out to possess him in order to continue his reign of terror in the real world.I heard Wes Craven was pretty upset with this movie, which is why he actually was involved with the sequel after this one. No one really thinks it's that scary to become Freddy Krueger. Don't change most rules in horror movie, only how the monster might be beaten.
- DirectorKevin SmithStarsBrian O'HalloranJeff AndersonRosario DawsonA calamity at Dante and Randal's shops sends them looking for new horizons - but they ultimately settle at the fast food empire Mooby's.Yes, long awaited sequels are definitely what the fans want. Unfortunately you should probably stick to your guns and stay true and original to the foundation of the original movie.
- DirectorKevin TenneyStarsPatrick MuldoonJane SibbettMichael SarrazinA computer hacker (Patrick Muldoon) learns of the plot of the backwards-kneed aliens to take over the Earth using their shape-shifting talents.Another example of what happens when you can't get the principle actor to sign, but the blame again goes to the quality of the story, probably not the best.
- DirectorLexi AlexanderStarsRay StevensonDominic WestJulie BenzFrank Castle, known as the Punisher, ruthlessly demolishes organized crime, but it starts an even bigger war.I didn't see much of this movie, but whenever you can't the original actor for the main role....not good at all.
- DirectorStuart GillardStarsMatt LanterAmanda WalshColm FeoreThe United State's Department of Homeland Security is led to believe an American teen hacker playing a terrorist-attack simulator game online is a real terrorist out to destroy the U.S.Mostly an afterthought or possibly an "update" of the original, maybe you shouldn't mess with a winning combination.
- DirectorCharles WinklerStarsNikki DeloachCengiz BozkurtDemet AkbagThe life of a young computer systems analyst is thrown into turmoil when, after arriving in Istanbul to start a new job, she finds her credit cards useless, her bank account empty, and her identity stolen.
- DirectorDavid R. EllisStarsA.J. CookAli LarterTony ToddDeath is stalking Kimberly Corman and multiple survivors of a deadly highway accident.The only one of these movies that doesn't really live up to the franchise. Most of the deaths are pretty ridiculous and because this movie separates it's self by being life-like deaths to the extreme. But this one just takes it overboard.
- DirectorPeter HewittStarsKeanu ReevesAlex WinterWilliam SadlerA tyrant from the future creates evil android doubles of Bill and Ted and sends them back to eliminate the originals.Different director but pretty much same cast with some celebrity cameos. Pretty shoddy and cheesy, and some intelligent aliens building robots??? Just weird and stupid.
- DirectorJoe BerlingerStarsJeffrey DonovanStephen Barker TurnerErica LeerhsenA group of tourists arrives in Burkittsville, Maryland after seeing The Blair Witch Project (1999) to explore the mythology and phenomenon, only to come face to face with their own neuroses and possibly the witch herself.This movie was one I anticipated seeing. Although I may catch it once in a while. It still leaves me lost. The story is too difficult to follow and the messages you are supposed to find might as well have been written in Sanskrit, because I don't understand that either.
- DirectorJohn LandisStarsDan AykroydJohn GoodmanWalter LevineElwood must reunite the old band, with a few new members, and go on another "Mission from God."I don't blame the writers for this one, most likely it was probably the production company trying to capitalize by trying to appeal to a wider audience. Otherwise, better story -- more enjoyable movie.
- DirectorChris CarterStarsDavid DuchovnyGillian AndersonBilly ConnollyMulder and Scully are called back to duty by the FBI when a former priest claims to be receiving psychic visions pertaining to a kidnapped agent.Misleading? To say the least. Now, not every X-Files story deals with aliens but most likely thats what the fans want from these movies.
- DirectorKim HenkelStarsRenée ZellwegerMatthew McConaugheyRobert JacksA group of teenagers get into a car crash in the Texas woods on prom night, and then wander into an old farmhouse that is home to Leatherface (Robert Jacks) and his insane family of cannibalistic psychopaths.Can you actual believe a non-horror horror movie? WTF? Probably the worst sequel ever!!! Put some mainstream (possibly mediocre) actors (Matthew McConaughey and Renee Zellweger) and you got a non-horror house of absurdity.
- DirectorJan de BontStarsSandra BullockJason PatricWillem DafoeA computer hacker breaks into the computer system of the Seabourn Legend cruise liner and sets it speeding on a collision course into a gigantic oil tanker.Can't get Keanu Reeves? Sandra Bullock will stay on for a bad movie. Yeah, nothing says terror than a hijacked cruise-liner.
- DirectorKatt SheaRobert MandelStarsEmily BerglJason LondonDylan BrunoA horrible massacre strikes up after an outcast teenage girl is taunted by a group of high school jocks, all of them unaware of her cutthroat telekinetic powers.Mostly seems like a direct to video release. With probably only one original cast member from the original movie. I just feel like I've seen this before.
- DirectorPeter SegalStarsEddie MurphyJanet JacksonLarry MillerScientist Sherman Klump's inventions, his upcoming marriage to his pretty colleague Denise Gaines, and his reputation, are threatened by his evil clone Buddy Love.Yeah it was probably funny to see Eddie Murphy play multiple hilarious characters in the first movie, not this time around. Just overly absurd and crude, downright not funny.
- DirectorNick MarckStarsKate SimmonsJake ThomasRandy QuaidA holiday to the South Pacific goes awry when Cousin Eddie's family and a tour guide are shipwrecked on an island.Did you actually see this movie? Nobody did!!! In it, Chevy Chase is nowhere to be seen. This is the only National Lampoon vacation movie not to feature Chevy Chase. Basically Cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) and his family are.....I forgot, just skip this movie, please?
