The Chainsaw Sally Show (2010)
entertainment for all it's worth
The show is based off the original Chainsaw sally movie, though you don't necessarily have to have seen the film in order to enjoy the show. The Show entertains from beginning to end, lots of gore, gags, and hapless victims, who in one way or another have upset Sallys sense of morale or ethics, and sometimes those rules are what are the funniest things about the show. It's full of cameos, and it's overall very well written and acted. From the original film to this, it's evident that JimmyO has grown as a director, and April as an actress. Ruby is now played by Azman Toy and he does a brilliant job of it. Definitely worth checking out!
A Feast of Flesh (2007)
original indie vampire flick
Personally I have grown tired of vampire films -it's always the same old thing, so I was pleasantly surprised when I watched "feast of flesh" (aka abattoir) As mentioned in previous reviews, it's basically a broken truce between Vampire hunters and a vampire brothel. The acting is above average for a independent film, and so is the storyline. -there is a connection between story and actions -you'd think that'd be a must for any film, yet, if you watch most independent films these days, such a simple thing, as a solid storyline can be hard to find! I'd like to mention though, that despite it being a low budget film, it's quite ambitious and has a lot of originality, that will keep you interested throughout the film. I personally enjoyed this film, and would recommend this over Underworld _anytime_!
Hard Candy (2005)
WHY did this movie work for you?
In the beginning of the movie..the movie is slow, yeah, but it still works, regular (but with definite perverted creepy tendencies) meets up with regular (overly smart and bragging ugly annoying) kid.
Good, characters established. so far so good, we now sorta expect, he either killing her, raping..whatever...but as soon as they enter his place, we know she's playing him. okay cool...she may be a kiddie serial killer. but no. As we progress into the story, the guy becomes more and more sympathetic...DESPITE they are playing him out to be a pedophile....so in the end we are rooting for a pedophile! (okay, this has been seen before with Freddy Krueger...though he is mostly just hinted at being child killer..which of course is much more noble) and the little brat, keeps yapping on about her own beliefs, and stuff we couldn't care less about, and just every now and then making a statement that actually holds some value to the plot. So, despite what heinous deeds he may have done...which we are rarely ever actually shown any proof of.this just paints her out to be some little annoying overly self indulging psycho freak. IS that the point of the movie? To make people root for what appears to be a pedophile, by annoying the **** out of the viewer? or did I get it wrong ( because I had to play the last half on double speed, as otherwise the movie would have been boring the daylights out of me), and he wasn't guilty at all, and she was just the bad guy? ...in which case, it didn't work either. Because, the guy still WAS A creep! - just the more sympathetic one of the two. A film, that is purely a "talkie"...with also just one room as the setting, a revenge motif, I've seen been done much better in "killing words" from 2003
