    8MM

    ★★★

    Fine mystery thriller with a very subdued Nicholas Cage performance. Decent directing, cast & score. Could stand 15 min shaved off.

    A P.I. building his reputation is hired to authenticate a snuff film which plunges him into the scary, deadly world of hardcore BDSM.

    The whole underground culture feels sanitized for mainstream audiences & the last kill went on too long but otherwise a decent feature.

    Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation

    ★½

    It's everything you don't wanna see in a horribly inferior cheap cash grab sequel & you'll know it by minute one. Cinematic disaster.

    A group of troopers, overrun by bugs, retreats to a base where they find a hero survivor that fortifies their spot & saves the day.

    Awful acting, worse effects, dreadful score, abysmal writing. Simply cannot capture anything from the original. Overall, pathetic.

    Portals

    ★★★

    Alright sci-fi horror anthology. Weird but stays interesting, some decent gore & their effects range from skanky to solid.

    An event leads to dimensional portals appearing on Earth that compel people to go through them with varying results.

    All good directors. It's great at not being predictable but that often comes at the expense of things making more sense.

  • Lifeforce

    Lifeforce

    ★★★

    Fun British electro-space-zompire-apocalypse sci-fi. It’s like Tobe Hooper doing Hammer doing Queen of Blood.

    Astronauts studying Halley’s Comet find members of the original vampire race coming to feed on human energy.

    Decent effects & nudity but the story gets muddy on points regarding the vampires or their zombie-like victims.
