Movie Review: Does 'The Haunting Of The Queen Mary' Sink or Swim?

Movie Review: Does ‘The Haunting Of The Queen Mary’ Sink or Swim?

The Haunting of the Queen Mary is out now in theaters. I watched it, and I have some thoughts. This horror, directed by Gary Shore (Dracula Untold), explores the mysterious and violent events surrounding one family’s voyage on Halloween night in1938 with their story interwoven with the destiny of another family onboard the infamous ocean liner in the present day. The film also integrates the characters of the ship’s crew, both past and present, giving us three stories to follow. The film required a large cast of characters, and that led to a flaw. We didn’t get to know a lot of the characters intimately, leaving many feeling a bit hollow. The main characters played by Eve (Star Trek Into Darkness, Belgravia), Joel Fry (Cruella, Game of Thrones), and Nell Hudson (Texas Chainsaw Massacre) had their flaws as well. Most of the characters aren’t very likable. They often lack the emotion the story should have required, especially the mother. She’s

Leprechaun 3: Blending Horror with Comedy in Sin City

Leprechaun 3: Blending Horror with Comedy in Sin City

The Leprechaun franchise has long been the pinnacle of cinema, where horror meets comedy. Very few storylines have ever pulled this off, and the Leprechaun series is one of the best to do it. The franchise went live with the first Leprechaun film, released in 1993. Our focus in this post is the third film in the series, Leprechaun 3. It still retains the horror flavor of the malevolent legend of the gold-seeking Leprechaun but puts it in Las Vegas, the city of casinos. Plot Synopsis: A Las Vegas pawn shop owner manages to get his hands on a Leprechaun statue. The medallion on its neck is a mysterious object to keep him dormant. Once the shop owner accidentally removes the medallion, the film kicks off to unleash hell on Las Vegas. Of course, he’s looking for gold throughout the movie. That’s what they do. Just when the Leprechaun is roaming the city, college student Scott McCoy comes into town.

Movie Review: August Underground (2001) - Unearthed Films

Movie Review: August Underground (2001) – Unearthed Films

Writer/director/producer/actor Fred Vogel’s 2001 found-footage free-for-all August Underground (co-written by Allen Peters) is light on story… in fact the entirety of the film’s 70 minute run-time can be summed up thusly: two serial killers on a spree of mayhem and murder film their exploits… but it’s in building that world… that depraved, disgusting world that this film shines. Our two main madmen are played by those aforementioned fellas… Vogel in front of the lens, and Allen behind it (and I’m sure plenty can be made of the psychological meaning behind the artist becoming one with their art)… and both uncredited for their performances… and the feature holds nothing back showing what these two rollicking rascals are up to, and what they are up to results in hard-to-watch, unflinching degradation and violence… so much so that you’ll swear you’re watching a real-deal snuff picture… and therein lies the genius of the piece. Along the way we are also “treated” to some

‘The Last Voyage Of The Demeter’ Sets A Course For VOD And Digital

The big-budget horror The Last Voyage of the Demeter has set a course and is sailing into a living room near you. Directed by André Øvredal (The Autopsy of Jane Doe), the movie is based on a single chilling chapter, “The Captain’s Log,” from Bram Stoker’s classic novel Dracula, and tells the terrifying story of the merchant ship Demeter, which was chartered to carry private cargo—fifty unmarked wooden crates—from Carpathia to London. The Last Voyage also stars Corey Hawkins (In the Heights, Straight Outta Compton) as Clemens, a doctor who joins the Demeter crew, and Aisling Franciosi (Game of Thrones, The Nightingale) as an unwitting stowaway. Liam Cunningham (Game of Thrones, Clash of the Titans) as the ship’s captain, and David Dastmalchian (Dune, the Ant-Man franchise) as the ship’s first mate. Javier Botet stars as Dracula. In our spoiler-free review, we called it “nightmare-inducing and brutal.” Unfortunately, the movie didn’t get the love it deserved in theaters because it had
