Super Volcano (2022 TV Movie)
1/10
Super it ain't
9 July 2023
The tone is set right away with some terrible cg effects of a blowing volcano and debris.

Comical is something that describe about this movie.

The acting and the implausible story telling are quite evident. Maybe it was supposed to be campy. I don't know but it sure comes out as such.

No real character development just studies in caricatures.

And the dialogue seems to be written by an elementary school student.

I like a disaster movie like the next guy but could not look past its laughable story line, amateurish special effects and sub-par acting.

Don't waste your time on this one. Be forewarned.

Stranger (2022)
3/10
Boring...
29 January 2023
I know there's an attempt for a story here but I can't find it.

A couple's on vacay and basically nothing really happens throughout the movie, except for the last few minutes of the flick. They brush their teeth, take showers, go hiking... you get the gist. Unless you are living it, then maybe its interesting but watching it, it's rather like watching paint dry.

There's supposed to be some kind of tension where there seems like a guy is lurking outside and we see it from the creeper's perspective. Then he goes inside the house and moves things around- the toothbrush, a ring- you get the gist.

When there are moments that you think something might happen, it doesn't. This movie might cause sleepiness. Be forewarned...

Hellraiser (2022)
2/10
Disappointing is an understatement...
8 October 2022
I had high hopes for this movie. I welcomed a twist to Pinhead and co-horts but in the end, the film did not have the mood or overall creepiness as in original classic.

Loved the rawness of the the original film. In this iteration, it's slick and antiseptic. Nothing seemed creepy, scary or visceral.

When the gang arrives, they didn't have a presence. In the original, the scene and mood change with their appearance. Basically in this it looked like women dressed in Halloween costumes. Nothing frightening. Even in all the 'gory' scenes, the blood and imagery looked plastic and not realistic.

I loved the first time I watched the original Hellraiser in theaters. There is none of the suspense and horror here. Nothing. Have to say this is movie is much better than the last Hellraiser movie (Hellraiser: Judgement), which is not saying much.

Just watch the original and classic Hellraiser again and skip this one. Unless you want to get your nap time in.

Sissy (I) (2022)
7/10
Unexpected...
1 October 2022
Going into the movie, I expected the normal influencer movie. There have been so many that it's becoming nauseating. Seen it before many times. Boy was I wrong with this one.

The second half of the flick is when it really gets rolling. First you feel sorry for the influencer and then you see the real disturbing side of her. The acting is on par , with an excellent performance from Aisha Dee, the influencer. Her performance is full of range from the delicate flower to the deranged.

If you make it past the slow beginning part, you'll be rewarded for certain. It's an unexpected crazy ride. A must recommendation...

Headache inducing...
26 July 2022
Yet another jittering cam footage movie. It's so rough that I wanted to heave. Other than that, it's also a bad movie. Pass if you want a headache or be nauseated...

Influenced all right but not in a good way...
19 July 2022
Enough with these social media influencer movies already. The lead actor is irritating and non of the characters really cared about. As with the found footage flicks, please have this one be the last one of its kind. Please for sanity sake...

The horrors of watching this movie...
16 July 2022
Do you call a supposed horror movie when there's no horror in it? Nothing scary here. Not even a jump scare. It's just about a few narcissistic women pretending to be in a reality show. Bad acting coupled with bad production values = skip it at all costs. You are forewarned...

Ugh...
7 July 2022
I commend the producers of this flick for giving senior citizens starring acting roles. However, please not in bikinis and daisy dukes.

Go back and watch "The Man Show." Much better girls on trampolines...

What a surprise...
7 May 2022
Didn't expect much. From the movie description, sounded pretty depressing. To my surprise, the acting was on par and an impressive directorial debut from Wallizada. Give it a watch- you might be surprised...

Not really. I expected a worse movie. The effects were decent and acting was not too bad. Overall, not too bad of a watch. Of course, it's not great but I expected alot worse...

Dull Almost Numbing...
5 April 2022
A very boring movie. I guess any movie that starts with "The Haunting of ..." nowadays watcher beware. If you want a movie where the lead actress basically yells "Dad!" "Dad, Where are you?!" this would be the movie for you. Rate ZZZZzzzz...

A bad fever dream..
13 February 2022
Ever have a fever with night sweats in combination of nightmares? This would be the definition of this film. A low budget movie fueled by drugs and equally cringe worthy acting. Hard pass on this one...

26 January 2022
It was hard to even watch this. Ridiculous story, poor acting and the production values- ugh. The audio seems like the actors were conversing underwater. Pass on this one...

Low budget dud...
6 November 2021
A not very good film. Here's an example: The characters are driving in a car but the director used a blue filter to emulate that it's at night. And that's a highlight of this dud. Pass on this one...

Well ok...
21 October 2021
The first movie was much better-which isn't saying that much. Didn't have that much substance. Decent gore with a dash of humor and that's about it...

Dave Chappelle: The Closer (2021 TV Special)
9/10
Just brilliant...
14 October 2021
Not really a fan of Chappelle. Haven't seen any of his previous specials so wanted to check out what the controversy was all about with The Closer.

It's brilliant. Loved the heartwarming story about this trans friend who passed away and starting a college fund for her child. It's the matter of laughing at ourselves- that's what comics do- a genius like Chappelle totally achieves in this special...

Some interesting banter but mostly dull...
3 August 2021
Noticing all the accolades for this movie. As all of us know, these are fake. Probably they are people from the families or friends who worked on the production of the movie.

Some of the conversations are amusing but overall nothing to write home about. Not much happening and overall dull. At least they had decent production values. I would skip...

Room 9 (2021)
2/10
Couldn't believe this was a Lionsgate movie...
23 July 2021
The plot was like finding a needle in a haystack. Basically vignettes some filled with torture. The production value is one of a low budget student film and not a Lionsgate production. Can't believe I watched this pile. Trust me-skip this "movie..."

Story goes nowhere..
21 July 2021
The movie has a light hearted feel to it; however, the acting is subpar especially from co-star Skyrah Archer. Can't believe she even landed the role to this movie. Alot of chasing (figuratively and literally) and time spent on the psychologist's chair. Overall, would not recommend...

Alot of blah blah blah...
21 July 2021
Wow just a collection of quirky people this woman finds while walking the streets of Los Angeles. That's it. Most of them were dull and uninteresting with equally dull and boring conversations...

There are adequate performances from the actors; however, the plot was confusing. The scenes were a bit plodding. Overall it had promise but the plot was lacking...

Terrible is an understatement...
13 July 2021
Warning: Spoilers
What did I watch? I still don't know. It was incoherent and nonsensical. Basically a mash of images with narration. Trying to be artsy? Who knows. Save you from pulling your hair out. Advice: Avoid this like the plague...

Wow such terrible mess...
30 June 2021
Even the eye candy T and A couldn't help this movie. One of the worst acting performances consistent through out the cast. Better to just watch some of the classic 70's films in this genre, like Women in Cages or Big Doll House. Skip this one...

Comical at times...
6 June 2021
Some scenes are so unintentionally farcical they border on the comical. Lance Henriksen provides an over the top performance. Enjoyed the movie overall though...
