John Wayne Gacy: Devil in Disguise (2021)

Highly enjoyable and very intriguing

[10/10 · 21 May 2021]

I recently found this and was quite impressed with it and the level of research put into John Wayne Gacy.

Carlito's Way (1993)

Pacino

[10/10 · 20 January 2021]

Arguably pacinos best performance and a very entertaining and interesting film.

Danger: Diabolik (1968)

A fun sexy 60's film

[7/10 · 18 November 2020]

This film is almost like a bond movie made into a superhero. It's definitely a sixtys film but unlike alot of the films based on comics in that era though this film takes a more...serious take on the era. Unlike batman which was campy and debatably bad. This film is more...hard edge and you can tell. Theres no real cheesy one liners or way out there plots. Its ,as i said earlier, more like a bond film.

Police Story (1985)

Classic

[10/10 · 16 November 2020]

One word classic. Wether its Jackie Chans awesome performance (in both his acting and stunts, this films got easily one of Chans best stunts) this film has it all

Opera (1987)

Easily my favourite

[9/10 · 12 October 2020]

This is easily my favourite of all of argentos films. Its got some if the most unique kills in his career and is extremely errie

Suspiria (I) (2018)

Ugh

[1/10 · 12 October 2020]

As a big admirer of Argentos original i was very skeptical of this. After seeing it i was not disappointed..its as horizon as I thought itd be

Friday the 13th (1980)

Eh

[5/10 · 8 October 2020]

Ill admit i still dont like the series but as the years go by my thoughts on the first have softened. Its got a great performance from patsy and the effects from Tom Savini are fantastic. But other then that it is nothing more then a slasher film

The Fly (1986)

Arguably one of the greatest remakes

[10/10 · 7 October 2020]

This & Invasion of the body snatchers are arguably two of the best remakes of all time(coincidently Jeff Goldblooms in both) the effects in this film are absolutely amazing. Especially the transformation make up for Seth

Dawn of the Dead (1978)

A pure classic

[10/10 · 5 October 2020]

Like the first before it this film is a classic. It definitely ups the anti for the gore and is fantastic.

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989)

How can you not like this

[8/10 · 26 September 2020]

Sure its a "stoner" film but its still a hugely entertaining one

The Usual Suspects (1995)

25 years later and i still get chills

[9/10 · 25 September 2020]

25 years later im still blown away by the twost even if i know it

A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987)

Best of the sequels

[7/10 · 23 September 2020]

This and New Nightmare are the best sequels in this series. The rest are inferior especially #2

The Shining (1980)

It's definitely not the book

[10/10 · 23 September 2020]

Sure it makes some...interesting changes to the stiry but not enough to stop this from being a classic horror

South Park (1997– )

Simpsons x10

[10/10 · 20 September 2020]

If simpsons was considered "dirty" at its time then southpark takes it and cranks it to 11. The shows got a great satirical humour thats not afraid to attack controversial subjects. From if Tom Cruise is gay all the way to red heads(gingers) dont have souls this shows got it all. And unlike alot of shows that get stail as it goes on southpark surprisingly gets better

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)

He was like a god walking amongst mere mortals

[8/10 · 11 September 2020]

Lets be honest Ron Burgendy is probably the best character Will Ferrell has ever created and he totally makes him great. The supporting cast is okay but in all hobesty this is Ferrells movie

The Boys (2019– )

If the first episode doesn't hook you then idk

[8/10 · 6 September 2020]

If after the first episode you're not hooked then i dont think youll like the series. I on the other hand was hooked the moment i finished e1

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974)

The film that started slashers

[10/10 · 3 September 2020]

It and maybe Halloween where the proto types to all slashers that followed

City Confidential (1998–2023)

Snore

[5/10 · 3 September 2020]

Ill admit Paul Winfeild is an entertaining narrator(till he passed away) and the replacements kind of worked(Danny Glover was probably the best) but it didnt save the series from being boring for about 30 mins before it got entertaining

Cold Case Files (1999– )

Bill Curtis

[10/10 · 3 September 2020]

Bill Curtis sells this show. Its already entertaining with all the insight into forensics but with Bills narration its double fun

American Justice (1992– )

Fantastic series

[10/10 · 3 September 2020]

An engaging and entertaining true crime/law show. Its especially entertaining with Bill Kurtis narrating

Ransom (1996)

Great film. Only one flaw

[6/10 · 31 August 2020]

Great film and is suspenseful. Theres only ONE PROBLEM Mel Gibson and Gary Senus are miss cast. Now by mis cast i mean that Garry should have been more in the role Mel Gibson was and vice versa. Other then that the films good. I thought the actors delivered(even if they where mis cast) the story was entertaining and some what suspenseful. Not edge of your seat suspense but enough to keep you entertained.But tge mis casting of the actors makes it really weird experience

Lethal Weapon 2 (1989)

Entertaining and easy to see why its a favourite

[9/10 · 26 August 2020]

A very entertaining entry into the series(Mel and Danny are great as usual) that Has a good story(south africian diplomats use their status to import drugs and cash to to US) and EXTREMELY ENTERTAINING performance by Joe pesci. Id often say this is his best performance next to his performance as Tommy in goodfellas. Its easy to see how this films often considered one of the best in the series and also often ranked as a fan favourite

The Sopranos (1999–2007)

One of the greatest

[10/10 · 20 August 2020]

Next to breaking bad id argue this is one of the greatest crime dramas of all time

The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996)

Entertaining

[8/10 · 15 August 2020]

Its got a bit of a confusing plot(think Bourne Identity before Bourne Identity) in that when the big reveal comes it seams to do a 180 after. But the action is entertaining and Genna Davis and Samuel L Jackson have good enough chemistry to make you wanna sit theough its confusing abd some what long plot

Hollow Man (2000)

Effects: stellar.story and everything else...

[5/10 · 31 July 2020]

The chi in this film is great(almost on par with T2 s T1000 effects) its just a shame the story is... mediocre at best. Its basically an updated Fly, invisible man type story
