[Rec]3: Genesis

{Cross-posted to Three Imaginary Girls}  Sometimes when filmmakers continue their horror film franchises, it doesn’t work out so well (I’m looking at you, Paranormal Activity). But while [Rec] 3: Genesis is admittedly the campiest film in Director Paco Plaza’s zombie trilogy, it’s still a nice follow-up to his previous creations, and he manages to keep changing it up enough that

Lovely Molly

{Cross-posted to Three Imaginary Girls}  Opening with a “found footage” sequence (expected by Director Eduardo Sanchez, one-half of the writing and directing team that brought us The Blair Witch Project) packed with intense emotion, Lovely Molly then backtracks to start at the beginning. Scraping together money to start their new life together, young married couple Molly and Tim

The Pact

{Cross-posted to Three Imaginary Girls}  While I think overall The Pact is a solid thriller, it’s also one of those movies that’s way better if you don’t know too much about it.

Lost Girl Kicks Ass

I was skeptical about this whole “fae” thing, but as it turns out, SyFy’s Lost Girl is filling the void that Buffy left in my fantasy-loving heart. Main character Bo is a sexy succubus with the power to drain the life out of men or women, or you know – touch them and make them

Bitter Feast

Bitter Feast caught my interest via its trailer, mostly because it stars indie actor Joshua Leonard and sensitive ponytail man from Singles (aka: James LeGros). Due to a scathingly bad review by JT Franks (Leonard) on his blog, Gastropunks (ha.hahaha), Chef Peter Grey is booted from his restaurant and loses his TV show. It’s hinted

The House of the Devil

Ti West’s The House of the Devil blew me away on multiple levels, not the least of which is that he just f’ing NAILED the 1980s look and feel of the thing. I mean, seriously. Usually when I watch films set in the 80s, I feel like I’m watching a cheap imitation of that era
