May 31st Incredibly dull and very underdeveloped. This was severely lacking in atmosphere. The ending couldn't come soon enough. I would have been willing to eat my own hand than to suffer through such tedious mediocrity but I am always compelled to finish a film once I've started it.

May 30th Rewatch Stupid 80s fun. Whacky and off-the-wall. Deliciously cheesey. A good example of when a cheese-fest works well.

May 29th Disappointing. Terrible in every way. Nothing positive to say about this one. A poor adaptation of a Stephen King novel. Hammy acting and corny dialogue can't be carried without atmosphere and an amazing score.

May 20th Visually impressive in terms of settings, lighting and colour but it bored the shit out of me. Atmospherically it lacked a bit of menace that should have come with the unknown alien entity.

May 19th A reasonable good effort by Eastwood. Had some nice elements and a good performance in the lead role but lacked that edge.

April.02 A weird and wonderful trip of a film. Difficult to describe but has hints of comedy, surrealism and spiritualism. Although the running time of the film is close to 3 hours it builds to a beautiful and touching finish. Nice to see a film that treats the father-daughter relationship in this humourous and heartfelt way. It never veers into the cheesy territory of Hollywood cinema and retains a sense of humour and emotion throughout.

Mar.31 This is probably the best Hellraiser since Hellraiser III. Visually and narratively a huge improvement over the other films in the series. It has some memorable moments but at the same time I can't say it will be a classic. Pinhead barely features and it sorely missed Christopher Young's score.

Mar.30 I'm a fan of Aubrey Plaza, Matt Berry and Jermaine Clement. But this was pretty disappointing. It's not that funny and it tries too hard to be quirky. Felt a bit like Napoleon Dynamite at times. Had so much potential to be good but is a let-down.

Mar.11 Another terrible entry into the Hellraiser series. The guy who plays the character Nick, one of the young guys, gives one of the worst acting performances I've ever seen. So bad it's hard to watch. The best thing about the film is the opening credit which displays the film's title on a black empty screen, that lasts about 2-3 secs. After that it goes downnnnnnnn hill.

Mar.09 Hard-hitting despite being a kind of 'Rom-Com'. Funny and dark. Exceptional performance by Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Quite brilliant in a lot of ways. Understated yet powerful.

05.03 Another excellent film from Ben Wheatley. At times it feels like a theatre production with its minimal cast and its limited setting - all of it takes place in a field. It moves from the theatrical to the cinematically spectacular. The black and white chiaroscuro cinematography is a visual treat. The hallucinogenic visuals and sounds are wonderful. There are some very funny scenes too and the dialogue is witty and unexpected, particularly when a dying man requests as his final message to his wife that he hates her and that he f***ed her sister up the ass. Very unorthodox final words. A very atmospheric and visually brilliant film.

26.02.2019 Visually excellent. Cool jazz score. The lighting and stage design were also stand-out elements of this early slasher.
