Somebody Help Me (2007)
Somebody Help Me must be what the Director was thinking
Flipping through I turned on this awful movie and continued to watch until I couldn't stand it anymore. Most of the plot made NO SENSE! Okay, yes, it was supposedly a slasher film but does that mean everyone has to act as if they are already brain dead? Why ....does the sheriff sit around all day investigating presumably online but goes out to "investigate" AT NIGHT! ....does the girlfriend go in the closet, wait for a few bars of music and then come out again? ....does she not look around at all! I actually could not bring myself to watch the end so I have no idea what part the guy in the truck played or even why the doc was doing what he did. I didn't care frankly after the little girl showed up. PLEASE!!!! I am curious what happened to the one kid who used the phone. Why did he collapse? My guess is from the awfulness of the movie but that's just a guess.
Run as fast as you can if this comes on again!
House of Wax (2005)
Better than I expected
This was a real surprise! I was expecting a run-of-the-mill teen horror flick full of blood and gore. While it had all the blood and gore you could ask for, it was also clever and had me holding my breath in suspense at several points. What I particularly enjoyed was Elisha Cuthbert's character. Finally, a young woman who shows some guts (major guts), uses her wits rather than making one stupid move after the other, and she makes a great team with Chad Michael Murray's character. I think the two of them make the film. The special effects were awesome and contributed to the plot in very clever ways. I haven't seen this entertaining a horror movie in a long time.
