Last Movie You Saw? (Theater/Home)

The Black Demon (2023)

Actually relatively enjoyable little self-contained shark thriller. A far better movie than The Meg 2, so it's odd to me that The Meg 2 has a higher rating on IMDB.

Well I found Meg 2 pretty terrible.

Meg: 6-7/10
Meg 2: 4/10
The Black Demon: 7-8/10

Damn!

I’m a Stratham fan, plus the kid who plays his step daughter was super fun, so I enjoyed it.

Pinocchio Guermo del Toro 5/10

Different. Interesting take on the original. It has a nightmare before Christmas vibe to it

The 3 amigos. 10/10

Forgot how funny this is

Candyman (1992)

This legit gripped me! 8/10. I'm planning to watch the 2021 sequel film next, though I know basically nothing about how it was received.

I haven’t seen the remake, either.

Audrey Rose. 9/10

Love these kind of movies. Old fashioned thrillers

I legit dug it, man. I was really with it. I was like, "Okay they're doing this in-depth investigation for a college paper, where is this going to go?" And I did NOT expect the gripping direction it took! I totally did not see it coming. Crazy! I'm doubting the 2021 film will be half as good as the original, but I'm going to give it an honest try because Jordon Peele wrote it and I like Yahya Abdul-Mateen II.

Home: Old Dads (2023)

Director: Bill Burr
Stars: Bill Burr, Bobby Cannavale, Bokeem Woodbine

Synopsis: Three best friends become fathers later in life and find themselves battling preschool principals, millennial CEOs and anything created after 1987.

Was meh to just okay. Did laugh at some parts, but not enough to vastly improve the film.

Bill Burr is still funny in standup.

The Spell 6/10

Interesting

Candyman (2021)

I actually liked some of the twists in the plot, but overall it is certainly inferior to the original; however, the way it builds on top of it is kind of cool. I think it would have benefited from a more consistent tone and more faithful-to-the-original direction.

The Craft (1996)

I had never seen it. It's some kind of fun 90s nostalgia.

Anything with Fairuza I'll watch. Big fan of hers.

Like Charmed it had some babes it it, too!
The black chick was decent, Neve Campbell and Robin Tunny were solid “I’d hit that”s, and Fairuza Balk was bite-your-junk-off psycho looking hot.

Then you had Christine Taylor as racist but very doable bully chick.

Oh yeah, and magic!

VENOM: LET THERE BE CARNAGE

Watched it a couple years ago, and this time out I enjoyed Woody Harrelson’s performance more. He so crazy!
