Madhouse (1974)
Madhouse A-OK
I thought this "diamond in the rough" was masterfully done. Vincent Price is his old self as the true the master of macabre. It is easy to see that this movie contains many characteristics found heavily in the modern day, surprise ending, slasher flick. With many exciting and suspenseful chase scenes, a wicked masked murderer, quick slashing deaths, and an emotionally disturbed main character, "Madhouse" reminds me of a sick mixture of "Scream" and Hitchcock's classic, "Psycho." In addition, the scenes and camera shots beautifully convey the mood and emotion of the awkward story line. Although obviously low budget, it baffles me that "Madhouse" isn't more recognized on the ongoing list of cult classics. Not the best movie in the world, but certainly worth checking out.
Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002)
Attack of Clones Puts Pieces Together.
I want to say that Star Wars Episode 2 was a great, action-packed movie. It gives perspective to the Trilogy (4,5,6) that episode 1 failed to do. While Episode 1 was setting up at plot, (and doing a very bad job at it) Episode 2 starts to lead you into the originial trilogy with the Death Star Plans, The Imperial Stormtroopers, & the Foreshadowing. Besides from the love scenes (which every "great" movie has to have) the movie was awesome: Plenty of Jedi battles, New Planets, The introduction to important characters later on, & even Yoda gets into it with his lightsaber & jedi powers. I liked it & i hope you will too.
