Film What was the last movie you watched? Part 2

[Monsieur Xavier]

The Black Hole (in French on D+, nostalgia !)

 

[Frodo]

INSIDIOUS : CHAPTER 2 ( 2013)


I really enjoyed this one, even more than the first.
My only regret is , I wish I had seen this in a packed movie theater in 2013, instead of streaming it a decade later.
It seems like it would have been a really fun watch with an audience.

Wonka. I didn't like it near as much as I hoped I would.

Twins of Evil (1971) ⭐ 6.6 | Drama, Horror

1h 27m | R

The posters for these movies are straight up pulp cheese.

I didn't realize at the time of my last post here that it's a loose movie trilogy based on and expands upon Sheridan Le Fanu's vampire gothic horror classic Carmilla (my book comments from years ago), published about 100 years before these films made by Hammer.

Two of the movies co-star Peter Cushing playing two entirely different characters in different times.

Anyway I enjoyed them. I think Twins is the best ( ★★★★☆), followed by the first, and the second (Lust) the least of the three (★★★☆☆).

I enjoy those three - although I rank them in release order (Ingrid Pitt alone would get The Vampire Lovers my top spot, but I also prefer it overall as a film). I'm a fan of Le Fanu's book as well (I recently bought a nice hardback edition to replace my battered old paperback).

I liked this way more than I thought I would

7/10

 

[Captain Tired]

Willard (1971)

I have trouble deciding whether I prefer this or the Crispin Glover remake. In the past I've usually preferred the 2003 film, but over the years I've really come to love the original more and more. And I do enjoy Bruce Davison as an actor.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Really expands on the mythology and delivers some stunning visuals and spectacle, the sound design is immense and the lead performance from Chalamet is impressive while Zendaya offers strong support.

8.5/10

INSIDIOUS : THE RED DOOR (2023)

 

[Ash J. Williams]

The last one is The Dracula Dynasty.

 

[BlackFox]

 

[Batgirl0202]

7/10

 

[Hunter Rider]

It's a fun, oldschool action movie that breezes by with some really dynamically shot action.

7.8/10

PRIME ( 2005)

 

[GreenKToo]

I'm half-way through the new road house film. Jake gyllenhaal is doing alright as dalton, but it definitely checked the 80 action vibe at the door.
