Fun (1994)
Stuck with me
I saw this movie when it first came out. I think it may have been the first movie I saw that was based on a true crime story. I was also around the same age as the main characters.
I didn't know what it was about when I started watching it and at first found myself somewhat identifying with the girls. I wasn't well liked at school. I didn't fit in and I knew I didn't, I knew I was different. I wanted a friend that I could talk to the same way. Someone that listened to me and understood.
Then the murder happened and I was shocked and fascinated. I did a bit of research on the crime it had been based on. Tried to find out what happened to the killers...
This movie is probably the reason I'm now a true crime and horror junkie.
Disquiet (2023)
This could have been really good
I really like the concept of the movie. The idea behind it is really clever
The list of things wrong is long
Bad acting that just got worse
Terrible script - I couldn't help but laugh out loud at some of the amazingly stupid lines they had the actors spit out
The characters weren't well defined
I did like the lighting and general feel of the hospital, it was like a bad trip crossed with a horror movie
The flashback scenes with the cop were done quite well but got confusing when Virgil was added.
No background on the young girl there... why was she added? Was it just to make the ending happier?
Makes sense that he could 'receive' her text message but it doesn't make sense she was able to receive his.
Wrong Turn (2021)
I really enjoyed this
I'm not sure why this has so many bad reviews.
It had everything I enjoy in a fun horror movie and was an easy watch after a couple of long days at work and the house to myself.
Creepy Town ✅
Creepy Kid ✅
Creepy Costumes ✅
Stupid Idiot you love to hate and can't wait for him to die ✅
Opportunities for me to yell at the characters "seriously dude shut up", "man you gonna die so hard, it's gonna be gorgeous", "jeez don't do that" and "WTF" ✅
A few great gory parts ✅ so many smashed faces!
Some Girl Power Action ✅
Predictable ending that then changed and caught me off ground ✅ Great ending, I honesty expected them to just keep driving off into the sunset!
The gory scenes and night scenes aren't too dark so I can actually see what's happening ✅✅ (so many horror movies these days are too dark during the best parts 😒 what's the point of a gory scene in a movie if you can't see half of it?)
I'm glad I turned this on tonight!
