Aantal filmrecensies: 2218 / 2218
Opties
Said monster is an impressive creation, either stop-motion or a convincing digital approximation of such. But it's also a little too goofy for a movie that takes itself as seriously as The Deep Dark, and would look more at home if it was battling Bruce Campbell rather than a group of acclaimed French thespians. Recensie
For a film that sets up so many possibilities as to why Alice has found herself in this scenario, the ending here feels almost insulting to the viewer's investment over the previous 90 minutes. Recensie
You may find yourself mouthing the words "well, that's weird" at regular intervals throughout My Mother's Eyes, but there isn't much food for thought. Recensie
By the end you're not entirely sure what you've just watched, but you know it was a movie that was both unique in its vision while betrothed to genre fare of the past. Recensie
The whole thing feels like an obligatory effort to wring some more money out of a dying franchise, and it's only the occasional clever cenobite design that offers anything new of note to the film. Recensie
With some striking cinematography by Gerry Lively and the sort of inventive production design the series had become known for at this point, Hellraiser III is a reminder of how great mainstream horror movies looked before the blandness of Scream and its teen horror clones took over in the second half of the '90s. Recensie
While it's never remotely as gripping as its predecessor, Hellbound captivates as a relic of a time when special effects artists were rock stars in the pages of Fangoria, and it makes today's mainstream horrors of the Waniverse and Blumhouse stable seem entirely devoid of imagination by comparison. Recensie
For the most part, Hellraiser is a gritty, kitchen sink thriller with a very British aesthetic. Recensie
If the dynamic between the two characters never quite works as effectively as the film would like, the blame can't be levelled at Rock or Cowan. Both are excellent in their roles. Recensie
Any film that revolves around a single character will ultimately succeed or fail on the strength of the performer occupying that role. Sullivan is magnificent as The Interviewer, evolving from cocksure and confident to paranoid, nervous wreck as the mystery overwhelms her and seems intent on wrapping her up in its enigmatic tentacles. Recensie
But while the writing is rough around the edges (some of this may be down to translation), Tejpal's filmmaking is tense and enthralling. It's not always a smooth blend, but Stolen is a rare movie that combines righteous social rage with exhilarating thrills. Recensie
Most of us demand such things as story, plot, character, suspense etc from our horror movies. Recensie
This Halloween howler is definitely more trick than treat. Recensie
Stahl brilliantly conveys this duality, swapping back and forth between sweaty desperation and professional pride. Recensie
As Beate, Stangenberg is a terrifying presence, one of the great villains of recent cinema. Recensie
At close to 3.5 hours, Killers of the Flower Moon never fails to justify its running time. It moves rapidly from one devious scheme to another, all the while propelled by a Ry Cooder-esque score by the late Robbie Robertson that ticks away like a malevolent metronome. Recensie
Haar is a tender tale of a tough woman. With its protagonist traversing a scenic European city, it has the feel of Linklater's Before Sunrise, but instead of asking the audience if two protagonists might fall in love, it proffers the question of whether one woman might learn to love herself. Recensie
Of course, if you're a seasoned horror fan you'll have learned to shrug off such inconsistencies and settle in for the thrills, of which there are just about enough here to make It Lives Inside an entertaining teen horror. Recensie
Christensen puts together some effective sequences and for two thirds at least The Puppetman is an involving little chiller. It runs into trouble in its final act when the film struggles to make sense of its own mythology. Recensie
With its cold corporate sheen, Fair Play might be mistaken for a product of the late '80 or early '90s, a time when an adult oriented water cooler movie like this would have been released in cinemas rather than buried on Netflix. Recensie
In that respect Totally Killer is a poor cousin of Landon's similar films, but as a comedy it's a winner thanks largely to the talents of a young cast, all of whom are too young to remember the '80s yet nail the vibe regardless. Recensie
Bloodlines pales in comparison to the sort of films it's attemping to evoke, and never manages to generate the sort of ticking clock tension such films thrive on. Recensie
Such details take us out of the film at key points, which is a shame as Unmoored is an otherwise tense and paranoid thriller with a protagonist we can sympathise with if not entirely condone. Recensie
In its home stretch, The Exorcist: Believer comes up against the problem of trying to present an exorcism in a novel fashion. At this point it's like trying to make a shark movie. Recensie
