A Cold Grave (2024)
Is this a joke?
I'm always down for a low budget - found footage film. This is low budget. And not a found footage film. It's a weekend project amongst "filmmakers."
Many times they attempt jump scares with run of the mill sound effects and Walmart Halloween masks. The lead - clearly does not have a southern accent in real life - and is doing a piss poor job of one for the movie.
When it comes to found footage you want to create the illusion of it being real. That's why Blair with was stellar, because it felt real. B for effort but overall F for result. 85% of the movie is the lead just talking to the camera.
X (2022)
I'll be thinking about this one for weeks...
This movie had me glued to the big screen for its entire runtime. It was able to have familiar themes splashed with something new, and when executed well, that makes for a really solid film. I'll be seeing someone's face in my nightmares for a while.... Ti West really deserves a lot of credit for this one.
American Horror Stories: The Naughty List (2021)
This was unbearable
This made the first 3 episodes look like masterpieces. This might be some of the worst writing I've ever seen on any show. What's going on Ryan Murphy?
Blood Red Sky (2021)
30 minutes too long
I'll give them credit for doing an "on a plane" horror movie because it can always be fun. However, this suffered from back story flashbacks that we didn't need. That combined with a 2 hour run time, and mediocre story, makes for a c- movie overall. Also, what are the rules? So fire can't kill them but an explosion can? They tried.
Lucky (2020)
Ever heard of a security camera?
All that preparation and no camera of any kind... yikes
Sator (2019)
Started off interesting but then fell flat
Everyone wants to be The VVitch, or Hereditary but fall short. I respect the low budget-ness, but just no pay off.
Don't Tell a Soul (2020)
What a mess of a script
Man.... from start to finish this plot was god awful - the "twists" didn't lend any payoff - so wild and out there
