The Village (2004)
Total Waste Of Time!
Holy, if I could rate this movie 0 out of 10 I would. It is so bad, so boring, and falsely advertised as horror/ suspense. Let me tell you,there is nothing remotely scary or suspenseful about it.
Don't waste your time with this one. The story line is not interesting whatsoever. The acting is nothing to be desired either. There is nothing memorable about any of the characters. In fact I saw this movie about a year ago, and all I can remember is that it is so crappy never to rent or buy it again. Even the clerk took it back after my purchase, agreeing that it sucked. This picture was advertised as horror to dupe fans of the genre into seeing it. What we got was a misleading horrible film that one can barely sit through. The only reason I didn't turn it off is because it was marketed so well that I thought it would get better. I was wrong. IMDb wants me to write a ten line submission , well let me tell you all I can say repeat is what garbage this film is. It's a total embarrassment for the director as I've seen some of his other films and this one is really bad in comparison. Even as a stand alone, it just doesn't cut it.
Bastard Out of Carolina (1996)
Excellent portrayal of one of life's tragedies
This is an excellent movie with 5 star acting for all actors involved. I've heard many comments that this movie should be pulled from the shelves, or that it's too sensitive of subject matter. Frankly, if you do not know the difference between watching a movie and acting, then do not watch this movie. For those who can appreciate the drama and lessons shown in film, this is a superb tale. Bastard Out Of Carolina is exactly that, a story about a "bastard" who commits one of life's most horrific tragedies; sexual child abuse. It will have you cringing and crying, but despite all the emotions it pulls out of you, it's no different then many other films depicting tragedy in some humans lives, be that death, divorce, illness, or child abuse. It does the job of showing us the reality of child rape extremely well.
