  • Roar

    Roar

    ★½

    I have honestly rarely felt as anxious watching a movie as I did watching Roar.
    The people behind this movie were truly insane and subjected themselves to multiple maulings all in the name of art. And make no mistake, these lions and tigers were totally unpredictable and it was clear to see the fear in the actors eyes at points.
    The story was pretty weak and was clearly worked around just having an ungodly amount of wild animals to point…

    For a film that's mostly just a bunch of dudes in a room trying to figure out what the hell is going on I was constantly enthralled the whole time. There's nothing else to say really except that's it's an exceptional film that tells its story perfectly.

  • Damien - Omen II

    Damien - Omen II

    ★★½

    Doesn't live up to the first one which was disappointing. Damien is evil but doesn't know it but bad things still happen to people he doesn't like, how does that work? Does he just think about how much he hates someone and then bad thing happen or are these people cursed by him incidentally? I have no idea.
    I did enjoy watching people die in hilariously complex accidents though. Elevator scene was a highlight.

    The Boogeyman

    ★★

    Kinda like a checklist horror film. A lot of scares but not much substance.
    Characters made odd choices that seemed bizarre under the circumstances.
    Little girl, if you are so afraid of the dark why play PlayStation with no other light source at night?

  • Cocaine Bear

    Cocaine Bear

    ★★½

    How do you fumble a movie called Cocaine Bear?
