The Devil's Candy (2015)

don't let the cliché description put you off, this is a great horror.

[8/10 · 15 September 2017]

When i first saw the description of this movie, I thought "oh yeah, just another possession movie ... yawn, probably going to be a waste of my evening" ... but then I took a look at how many positive reviews It was getting and decided to give it a go ... and to no disappointment! This movie was well done, lots of original material, well crafted cinematic horror, good acting, good plot, actually reasonably scary and suspenseful... it's a solid horror movie. I recommend it strongly to other horror fans and trust me I don't give that recommendation out easily, there is plenty of 'horror crap' out there, but this is horror gold. Good job.

Prince of Darkness (1987)

mostly boring, predictable horror film

[3/10 · 6 August 2016]

The film start with a reasonably interesting premise (if not particularly original). There are a few interesting parts but mostly it was quite predictable and boring. To give credit where credit is due, the special effects are not bad considering a 1980's film and a low budget... but that's just not enough, your waiting the whole movie for the key ploy to unravel and then then when it finally does its soon removed in a highly predictable and just outright lame fashion. The acting was on the whole nothing to write home about either, not terrible, but no golden globe awards here that's for sure. This movie simply doesn't bring much that's new, its a very stereo- typical 'cliché 80's horror film, fairly gory to try give some cheap thrills to compensate for a lack of complex plot and ideas of where to take the story since the initial premise'.

if you like cliché gory 80's horror films, then maybe this review is not one you should take into consideration, but if you are like me and enjoy horror, but expect every movie to truly be original to a reasonable extent and horrify in ways other that cheap lame gore, then ask me for a recommendation.
