A Maldição Do Nevoeiro (2023)

The curse within the fog.

[6/10 · 20 April 2023]

It isn't the most story and action-driven film. It is a satisfying tale of the old legend of the ghost ship, i like it, but don´t expect too much.

The cast put on good performances, the soundtrack is scary.

Visually the fog is cool, it is somewhat low-key in terms of practical effects, but it works out well in favor of the movie. And believe it or not, it brings something scary to all of it, from the way it fills the house, as it goes from room to room, to find his victims, transforming itself in the creatures and Capt. Jones.

My rating lands on a six out of ten stars, because it brings some good elements to the picture, and when it´s over, you still think about it, about the legend of the ship and the fog.

Sexta-Feira 13 - A Vingança De Jason (2023)

The beginning of the Jason Voorhees story.

[8/10 · 13 March 2023]

I like the burlap sack mask. It is creepy.

The tension scenes have a great impact causing a certain fear and anguish of what could happen. Basically everything here is much improved, including the story. The script is not even close to being good, but some ideas here are much better than others.

The soundtrack is sweet and a good improvement on the franchise.

The cast does a good job, of what they have here, still the characters make dumb choices, ignoring any warning of danger, and running away from any unpleasant situation.

We are mostly looking for the kills, and there are some that are effective, but they are scarce.

All in all 8.

The Hunted (I) (2022)

Definitely worth watching!! Silent and deadly.

[8/10 · 21 December 2022]

I really like this survival story very much. Its bit depressing in the middle but the story is presented in highly engaging manner. Once the hunt started, there is no dull moment.

The best part is that the viewer can feel the pain and survival instinct while watching this.

I was taken on an emotional rollercoaster. It was acted beautifully. I found myself invested from the beginning.

For me this is the best movie this director ever made.

It is emotional, inspiring, super intense and fast paced entertainment.

The soundtrack is well within the movie and in some bits we only ear the suspense track at a very low level, it cause on us a little fear.

The Call 3: End of the Line (2022)

Deserves to hold a place as a cult classic.

[9/10 · 24 July 2022]

The pacing of the film was very good and apart from the purifier stealing the show the other actors were good.

The Exterminator: Retribution (2022)

The offspring of the exterminator battles the mob.

[9/10 · 30 May 2022]

The First Exterminator film is a cult classic among fans of Revenge and exploitation flicks.

Now we have his son that picks up his mantle and starts killing everyone of a mob organization led by a godfather called Don Teschio, this guy is in charge of everything in the city, so the young man will have a difficult task at hands, in this movie he destroys warehouses of dope, a pier, and an industrial complex.

This movie reminded a lot of golden years of Cannon, so it his my pleasure to give it a 9.

Sith Wars: Episode I - The Return of the Sith (2021)

Worthy of the name 'Sith Wars'.

[10/10 · 27 December 2021]

Let's face it, this is epic a tale of Sith Wars, why didn´t Lucasfilm and Disney never tought of this, with their budget it could become glorious or not...i´m afraid they could ruined it.

But this one is a gem, it has various sith lords, a good story, a few reveling moments, some obscure paths, puzzle pieces that don´t have answers yet, but i´m assuming they will on the next ep.

So my rating is 10 and will tell all of you why, Vader assumes the position of commander of the empire and leads all attacks to the rebels, the timeline for this (maybe i´m wrong) but it seems like after the events of the original ep III.

Because some situations within the movie looks like it was really connected to that.

The action in the movie is fast paced and there's lots of it, and that's probably the reason why this film feels much more like Star Wars than the previous two. The lightsaber battles are superb, and the final climatic one between Revan and Nihilus is somehow part of Star Wars history and will remain so, even if this is a fan film.

It makes for great entertainment. The special effects throughout the movie are nothing short of amazing, and each landscape in the film is brilliantly rendered. The space battles are excellent, and even though you know it's only CGI, and therefore lazy effects, the CGI is good; and when it's good I personally don't mind seeing it.

It has begun on a high note this darkside tale.
