The Black Magic (2002)

The Black Magic (2002)



Actors:
Daniel Lennox, Christina Wieber & Guy Bracca

Director;
Marc-Ivan O'Gorman

Runtime:
1 hour 31 minutes

Plot:
Three young men taking one last hurrah to Bangkok before one of them gets married. There they meet a Thai woman who ends up dead the next morning. Upon returning home, the men are haunted by the vengeful spirit of the woman.

Trailer:



Review:
This film was inspired to some degree by true event. The acting is average while some are just trying too hard. The story, well that takes a while to develop and than it was still just a basic story that has been told many, many times before. The ending was rather weak as most of the story was. To be honest even for a low-budget this movie is just not worth the time to watch it.

The Conjuring 2 (2016)

The Conjuring 2 (2016)



Actors:
Patrick Wilson, Vera Farmiga & Frances O'Connor

Director:
James Wan

Runtime:
2 hr 13 minutes

Plot:
In 1977, paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren come out of a self-imposed sabbatical to travel to Enfield, a borough in north London. There, they meet Peggy Hodgson, an overwhelmed single mother of four who tells the couple that something evil is in her home. Ed and Lorraine believe her story when the youngest daughter starts to show signs of demonic possession. As the Warrens try to help the besieged girl, they become the next target of the malicious spirits.

Trailer:



Review:
Based on actual events around Ed and Lorraine Warren, this film is about England's version of Amityville and is the most documented haunting to date. With James Wan as the director this movie lacks for nothing as per usual for him. The cast and crew did an amazing job. Special effects were great and no mess-ups that I could see.
There were plenty of jump scares and even got me on one (which rarely happens). I took my 81 yr old mother with me to see this (she's not a horror fan in any way) and she also loved this film as well. Even if she got scared a bit.  This being a brand new film I am not going into great detail so I do not include spoilers, but I HIGHLY RECOMMEND  this to everyone, even non horror fans. This one surpassed the first one and is one of the few sequels that are much better than the original.

Patrick: Evil Awakens (2013)

Patrick: Evil Awakens (2013)



Actors:
Jackson Gallagher, Sharni Vinson & Charles Dance

Director:
Mark Hartley

Runtime:
1 hr 36 minutes

Plot:
Kathy (Sharni Vinson) is a young nurse that is eager to prove herself in her new job in an isolated psychiatric clinic. She's intrigued by Patrick (Jackson Gallagher), a comatose patient that her boss Dr. Roget (Charles Dance) assures her is incapable of truly responding to any external stimuli. Kathy is horrified by the experiments that Roget and his nurse Matron Cassidy (Rachel Griffiths) inflict upon him, and she's initially pleased when she finds a way to communicate with him. This quickly turns to horror when Patrick uses his psychic abilities to interfere with her life outside of the hospital, as Patrick has grown obsessed with Kathy and will harm anyone that he deems to be interfering with his relationship with her.


Trailer:


Review:

This is a low budget (remake) Australian horror film. The special effects are very well done for a low budget, I've seen some higher budget films with worse to be honest. The cinematography in this film was done by Garry Richards and he did a splendid job. The lead actress Sharni Vinson (You're Next) was great as always. And the rest of the cast was good in general.

The plot itself makes you think twice about comatose people and telekinesis in a whole new light. Basically the movie is about a stalker in a coma with the ability to make your life hell. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

The Possession of Michael King (2014)

The Possession of Michael King  (2014)



Actors:
 Shane Johnson, Ella Anderson, Cara Pifko 

Director:
David Jung

Runtime:
1 hr 23 minutes

Plot:
Michael , who doesn't believe in God or the Devil. Following the sudden death of his wife, Michael decides to make his next film about the search for the existence of the supernatural, making himself the center of the experiment - allowing demonologists, necromancers, and various practitioners of the occult to try the deepest and darkest spells and rituals they can find on him - in the hopes that when they fail, he'll once and for all have proof that religion and the paranormal are nothing more than myth. But something does happen. An evil and horrifying force has taken over Michael King. And it will not let him go.


Trailer:



Review:

There are almost as many possession movies that have come out in the past few years as zombie movies. Along with the movie "Possession", this movie is another gem that stands above the rest. With special effects and trick photography matched along side a great storyline make this film worth the watch. The actors while some are over the top, the lead character, Michael King, played by Shane Johnson, couldn't have been played better.  

I highly recommend this film to everyone.

Friday the 13th (2009 Reboot )

Friday the 13th  (2009 Reboot )  



Actors:
Jared Padalecki, Amanda Righetti, Derek Mears


Director:
 Marcus Nispel

Runtime:
1 hr 37 minutes

Plot:
A group of young adults discover a boarded up Camp Crystal Lake, where they soon encounter Jason Voorhees and his deadly intentions.


Trailer:





Review:

This version tells more of the back store of Jason, his mother and even his hockey mask than the original first 3 movies put together. if you read the critic's reviews of this reboot (not actual movie goers) you will see most of them hated it because it was just another "Slasher" film. HELLO it is Friday the 13th, the definition of slasher movies.

With that being said this was one of the many reboots of Horror movies past. Marcus Nispel, director, did a fantastic job retelling Jason's story.  Yes there's a lot of eye candy for both men and women to enjoy in this. Blood, gore everything you need in a horror.

This version whether or not you have seen the original will not disappoint you. The actors can act & special effects are pretty awesome, all in all a great reboot.

Jason goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993)

Jason goes to Hell: The Final Friday  (1993)



Actors:
 John D. LeMay, Kari Keegan, Kane Hodder

Director: 
Adam Marcus


Runtime:
1 hr 27 minutes

Plot:
We find supernatural psychopath Jason Voorhees returning from the dead to possess the body of a medical coroner.


Trailer:




Review:

While the beginning of this film is kinda cool, Jason explodes you ask yourself if they showed you the movie backwards. No they did not, it is only the beginning of one of the most confusing plot of the series. This movie turns Friday the 13th, our beloved slasher film franchise into a freaky who's possessed by Jason now wtf movie.

 The only way I would recommend that you watch this is if you want to watch the entire series. The only good part of this film is the first 10 minutes.
