Superbad (7/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:14 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:14 pm

Entertaining, but not quite laugh-out-loud funny. 40-year-old virgin was better.

Ti piace Hitchcock? (Do You Like Hitchcock?) (6/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:13 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:14 pm

Actually, I liked this. Argento’s painterly style is nowhere to be found but I thought the story never was dull and there were some nice, albeit slight, variations on classic Hitchcock moments.

The Stendhal Syndrome (8/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:13 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:13 pm

The best of the post-Opera Argento films. Has moments of sheer brilliance, but plenty of crappy parts too. The score is incredible.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (6/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:13 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:13 pm

Entertaining, but didn’t really feel like an Indiana Jones film. Maybe it was too effects driven, rather than stunt driven. I dunno.

Dario Argento’s Trauma (5/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:12 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:13 pm

It has its moments, but Trauma suffers from horrible dialogue (even for Argento), a wholly inappropriate score and many bad editing choices that simply kill any suspense. I blame Minnesota.

The House of Exorcism (6/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:12 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:12 pm

An entertaining rethink of Lisa and the Devil.

Kidnapped (7/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:11 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:12 pm

In many ways, much tighter than Rabid Dogs, but the ending ruins the film.

The House by the Cemetary (6/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:05 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:05 pm

Fulci haunted house movie. Pretty slow until the finale.

The Antichrist (5/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:04 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:04 pm

Starts out interesting but loses focus in the second, exorcist wannbe, half.

Grindhouse (8/10)

Posted on Jun. 29, 2008 - 5:04 pmSep. 20, 2020 - 5:04 pm

Shallow and stupid, but I guess that’s the point. Nonetheless, always entertaining. Tarantino’s section is mediocre but the fake previews are great.
