The Possession of Hannah Grace (2018)
Didn't disappoint..
I finally got round to watching this & it was everything I expected after watching the trailer. I found it creepy & scary at times, but being someone who loves horror & paranormal/haunting movies, I found it was lacking few elements, like the jump factor or that realness that spooks you out..
Even tho I enjoyed this film, it's not one that leaves a lasting impression nor did it scare me so I'll leave a light on at night, but if you enjoy your creepy horror films, it's worth the watch..
Monster X (2017)
Watched this as it is rated 8/10.. I think not.
Wow, where to start. I was looking for a horror to watch & keep in mind, my spectrum on horror genres is pretty wide & I can usually find some entertainment out of near enough any horror.
I watched the trailer for this movie on Xbox movies & couldn't decide wether it was worth watching or not. So, I do as I usually do & consult IMDb. I Searched the title & was straight away impressed with its 8/10 stars based on over 250 ratings, so I paid £2.49 to rent..
Within 2mins into the movie, I knew I'd made a mistake.
Now, the anthology idea didn't sound to bad in the description & neither did the storyline (I've read descriptions before that made the film sound like it should of been the worst horror film in the world, but have turned out completely the opposite), so I felt this movie could be one of them..... it could of been.
From the start, the acting. It's crap. Really has that unnatural vibe & so fake it makes you cringe. The parts which were presumably meant to be scary, are not.. there are no jumps or tense moments, even though there could of been if done right because like I say, the story is there.
The makeup didn't help either, really low grade low budget. I've seen better & more realistic effects at Halloween parties & not to blow ones own trumpet, I know I could of done & have done better myself.
I think there was also meant to be some comedy thrown in, but I couldn't really tell if it was on purpose, either way it wasn't funny. Actually thinking about it, maybe the whole film should be in the comedy/horror genre, but whatever it is, it didn't work at all.
Pompeii (2014)
I think this is a love it or hate kind of movie..
Saying that, I didn't particularly fall crazy in love with this film, but I did like it. If you enjoy movies of this type of genre then I say, give it go. Yes, it's titled Pompeii, but don't be fooled into thinking that the movie is based & focuses on Pompeii itself. I do believe that it hardly follows true events of what really happened back when the volcano blew its top, but the storyline they went with & used wasn't that bad.. I thought the special effects did OK & wasn't poorly done & the acting wasn't bad in any way either. I do feel slightly disappointed, they could of really gone to town with the blood, guts & grisly stuff beings as they chose to focus the storyline around fighting, gladiators & more fighting, but the movie lacked any of the sort.
