  Apartment 7A 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 11 Jan 2025

  While not as creepy as Rosemary's Baby it was a pleasant surprise.

  Julia Garner was excellent, as was Dianne Wiest.

  I really wanted the isolation and creepiness to be ramped up. I thought there was a touch too much focus on Julia's career.

  Antebellum 2020

  ★★★ Watched 11 Jan 2025

  Creepy movie that I was not expecting. Once the reveal occurs this movie gets uncomfortable mighty fast.

  Got this for Janelle Monáe and she did not dissapoint.

  April Fool's Day 1986

  ★★★★ Rewatched 08 Jul 2018 1

  I love April Fool's Day.

  This movie has a creepy feel about it.

  Light on gore, there is a ton of suspense.

  Deborah Foreman invites a bunch of college friends to her remote island mansion, where they are constantly playing jokes on each other until the attendees begin to disappear.

  Amy Steel and Deborah Goodrich (who really heats up the screen whenever she was on it) are the best.

  The end is great.

  The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo 2011

  ★★★★ Watched 08 Feb 2015

  This remake actually works. I was prepared to dislike it as I really enjoyed the original with Noomi Rapace, but Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig did an amazing job. Loaded with some great actors this version did a very nice job of pacing. A brutal thriller, that has some very graphic elements attached to it. I loved the Bryan Ferry song that ran at the end of the credits, "Is Your Love Strong Enough". I originally heard that in Legend and it is a fantastic song.
