Bunnyman Vengeance (2017)
a fitting end to the trilogy?
Rebuking it's low budget origins, and brimming with creativity. Bunnyman Vengeance is a fitting end to the trilogy. Each chapter in this series has the "antagonist" ? Bunnyman running into a new group of people in a new adventure. This installment is the most unique of the series. I honestly expected the franchise to conclude in one way, and the film went in a completely different direction (which was a nice surprise). Generally film franchises start to get a little long in the tooth by part 3, however Bunnyman Vengeance (again with a pleasant surprise) ends the series on a high note, with the best one yet.
Hollow Man (2000)
pretty good
The film starts out strong, well made with good acting and a solid pace. however half way through the film, it devolves into a mindless action film. The VFX still hold up today, and it just feels like a classic Verhoven / 90's sci fie b-movie. It's enjoyable, and what else can you ask of really. I would recommend checking this film out, especially if you've never seen it, or if you haven't seen it recently.
Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)
a classic
this film never gets old, it's a classic 80's film. it works for both children and adults. looking from the outside, the film should be cheesy and over the top, but it's not. it walks up to that line, but it never crosses into the camp factor. it has a endearing character, and a innocent charm that's hard to deny. hopefully that can retain this feeling for the third film? the music and direction is spot on, which I credit a lot to the construction of the film. there's a reason why this character is still around today, and I solely attribute it to this film. the negative aspect of the film some might say is the plot. I however am pleased with the "simple" story about a man and his bike. the film stands out for it's "b-plot" that it creates, and a overly complicated plot would only distract from it. it's about creating a "pee wee's playhouse" that we want to visit, not necessarily explain.
Bunnyman (2011)
a film in the tradition of the 70's and 80's horror films
This film belongs in the 80's, and that a good thing. The film is about mood and style as it is about gore. In fact, there's not much gore in the film which the film really isn't about. It's like one of those classic 80's films that takes it's time to build a believable world for these charters to inhabit. The filmmakers show nature as much as the people, and it's about the environment that these characters "survive" that's wisely presented as one of the characters in the film. I won't go into talking about the actual character Bunnyman, since I'm sure other reviewers will have a field day dreaming up where this character comes from, he's motivations, and what they would like to see Bunnyman do next. I will admit, there's plenty to mine with this character. Browsing some sites, this film is finally getting the respect it deserves.
The DVD presentation is packed with so many goodies it's hard to know where to start. An "fly on the wall" documentary, commentary, tons of deleted scenes...and so much more. If you like this one, get the DVD, it's worth it for the extras alone.
