The Last House on the Left in Movies ·
I don't know about you guys, but I actually really liked this one. It doesn't even feel like a straight-up horror flick; it’s more of a thriller, maybe even a psychological one. If that's your vibe, you're going to have a good time.

When I first saw the title, I totally pegged it as some cheesy romantic comedy, so I didn't even give it a second thought and skipped right over it. But then I caught the trailer on TV the other night and realized, "Wait, this is exactly my kind of movie." 😁

It’s a full-blown thriller, and honestly, I can say it's one of the better ones I've seen lately. There isn't a ton of heavy action, but the psychological tension is everywhere—it really makes you sit there wondering, "What would I even do if I were in that spot?"

I was actually really happy with how everything played out, especially that final scene. I’d definitely recommend it to fans of the genre, though fair warning: it might not be for everyone. There’s one specific scene that is just... intense. It left me completely speechless.
Gamer (2009) in Movies ·
As a gamer, I'm seriously counting down the days until I can finally check out 🙂
Then he wasn't much different from the politicians we deal with today (but that’s a whole other conversation).

This could be pretty interesting. I'm not sure if that rumor is still floating around about them telling the story in a completely new way.

What do you mean, a different way? Like that movie with the different version of King Arthur?
The last decent Robin Hood flick I saw was the one starring Kevin Costner and Morgan Freeman.
Monsters vs. Aliens (2009) in Movies ·
Caught this animated flick today. It’s got some decent nods—well, more like parodies—to those old alien invasion movies 🙂
. But honestly? It didn't really crack me up that much.

Which side are you on? 🙂

You know perfectly well there's no answering that question.
Call of Duty in Movies ·
This guy seems pretty obsessed with turning video games into Films.

The Film based on that FPS game...
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0400426/

The opening isn't actually as bad as I expected. It follows the game pretty closely, though it adds a bit more context regarding how Jack and Val ended up on the island in the first place. Even the lead, Jack Carver, is wearing the exact same shirt from the game. One thing that cracked me up, though, is that they decided to make Jack Carver German in the movie. They bring it up constantly—probably just a lazy way to explain away the actor's accent since he's playing an American character.

Once they hit the island, the plot kind of falls apart. It turns into your standard action flick where the protagonist just guns down everyone while the military tries to mow him down with machine guns. I'm sure you can guess who wins that fight. 🙂
[Rec] 2 (2009) in Movies ·
Are you telling me we might actually see a Rec spin-off set in space one day?
Like some kind of "Jason x" vibe?
[Rec] 2 (2009) in Movies ·
I’m really hoping they do an American remake of this new sequel. I honestly can't stand watching foreign films, especially when you have to deal with subtitles. I'd much rather just focus on the action 😁

The first one was solid, but like someone else mentioned earlier, what can they actually pull off without just repeating old ground? Though, since this one is styled like a found-footage documentary, who knows... maybe they'll find a way to make it feel fresh.
Windows 7 in Software ·
I just finished setting up a W7 build.7022 (running on VMware), and honestly, it’s pretty solid. Everything I’ve thrown at it so far runs smooth as silk—haven't run into a single hiccup yet.
