The Secret of the Djinn (2023)

Very B class

[8/10 · 27 December 2023]

The Djinn is superb and sinister, which is terrific to watch, and the special effects which are imaginative, inventive and clever with little reliance on CGI, which are good.

It tells the story of this Djinn from the times of the median empire is locked in is tomb, only to be released in present day by a bunch of explorers looking for a treasure.

They soon regret it, as the killing starts with the evil wisher making is way to the one who woke him.

And in between we get to see some trolls, and other horrible creatures.

The malevolent Djinn is looking to take over the world granting 3 wishes to the one who woke him.

So you can expect a good time watching this.

Jeepers Creepers Returns (2023)

Easily better than reborn.

[9/10 · 29 May 2023]

First off: the beginning of the movie sets things right to the lore of the creature, next we go to present day were a mayor of pogo county hires savage and his hunters to track and kill the monster, and they have a good trap just for him.

The creature moves through town on his truck and on his wings killing and stalking in daytime as well as night time, we see a lot of cool make up effects, the creeper´s costume and face, looks very much similar as the original one, wich makes me clap for them.

The soundtrack is good taking us in the direction of fear and tension as the creature moves silently through the shadows of the forest.

The sets are amazing for a low budget like this.

9/10.

The Call 3: End of the Line (2022)

[7/10 · 26 July 2022]

With a strong cast and interesting premise, this movie is nothing short of entertaining.

I highly recommend watching it, especially at night.

Love this movie! So twisted and enthralling!

Death Bed Game (2022)

Very interesting, really enjoyed it.

[8/10 · 15 February 2022]

This was fun and suspenseful. The characters are written in a very basic way, but just enough to move along with the plot.

This movie is very entertaining and thrilling you don't want to take your eyes of the screen, we see our main character solve the riddle to survive, and only a voice on the phone telling him what to do, in a scary way.

The room was very strange, full of weapons, boxes, strange stuff, a crystal eye ball, all part of the sick game the bad guy makes to trap his targets.

So that the viewers can better correlate with the player and his struggle for survival.

Many people won´t understand this movie, but i did.

In addition to the excellent direction and convincing acting, i´m giving this one an 8.
