Dead of Summer (2016)
Better than expected***Major Spoiler***
Dead of Summer was really good. Well acted, scary, suspenseful, sad and full of plot twists. The only downside was the Freeform liberal PC agenda that is shoved down our throats in most of their programming -even down to the three survivors.
FBI: Most Wanted (2020)
Julian McMahon!
I like this show better than FBI. Jeremy Sisto and Sela Ward are amazing but they're not in it enough and the leads are boring.
FBI Most Wanted has Julian McMahon and since I saw his FBI episode last year, I've been counting the days til this show premiered. I especially loved the pilot and don't know how people could give it a 1 when Henry Thomas was the guest star!
Come on people, it's Elliot from E.T. ! Didn't you see that commercial at Christmas when E.T. came back to visit Elliot and his family??? Why are IMDB reviewers so heartless sometimes?
Henry Thomas is a legend and Julian McMahon is yummy so please reconsider those 1 ratings!
Sugar Rush (2018)
Great new baking show!
I love baking competitions more than anything so this show makes me very happy! Sugar Rush is slightly better than Nailed It, and it's great to have Candace Nelson back. I also love the host and think people are criticizing him too harshly. My only issue is not enough episodes!
Acts of Violence (2018)
Good Movie!
I've seen a lot of Bruce Willis B-movies lately, usually for the secondary actors because I'm not a huge Bruce Willis fan. Most of them are not-terrible, but I don't have the highest of expectations. This movie was actually a lot better than I expected. Cole Hauser was fantastic as always- so glad to see him back in a starring role! Actually, I liked all of the acting except the actress who played Mia. It's true that parts of this movie are unrealistic but I didn't think I was watching a documentary.
The Evil Within (2017)
now this is a HORROR film, people! Possible mild spoilers...
I went into this one with reeeeally low expectations. First- because it looks kinda cheesy and reminded me of Mirror,Mirror (1990) a movie I would like to forget. Second- because I just finished watching a painfully bad horror movie on Amazon Prime (yes, Fortune Cookie-I am talking about you) and Amazon Prime has burned me many times. But this one was free and short so what the heck.
So I usually watch a movie because it has one of my fav actors in it. If I like an actor I support all of their projects-even the crappy stuff. That's why if I ever meet Ryan Merriman, he owes me $4.99 plus tax for Fortune Cookie. This movie drew me because of Sean Patrick Flanery- who I've always liked even though he's been in some serious crappola. But he's always solid in my opinion, and he was solid in this. I think his character could have expressed a tad more horror in the end, because I would have been screaming my lungs out and vomiting profusely in his situation- but I don't know, maybe men are more stoic.
The other lead is Dina Meyer, who coincidentally was also in Fortune Cookie. I usually think she's a weak actress, but this is probably the best work I've seen her do. Not sayin' she was good, but not terrible either.
And now to the STAR of the movie-Frederik Koehler. Wow, was he ever amazing. He seriously knocked it out of the park. Cute little Chip, from Kate & Allie?!?!? Really?!?! You will love him, hate him, and pity him.
So other people have already gone over the plot, I will just say that I did not see where this was going and I watch a ton of horror movies. At times I was confused, at times I was a little bored (early on), and then it became more and more disturbing until the what-the-hell-am-I-watching ending when everything hit the fan. Secrets are revealed, people including children come to a terrible end, and even though when it's over you may not fully understand everything that just happened, it's pretty freakin' disturbing and unforgettable.
Maybe this movie doesn't deserve 9 stars because it is definitely flawed, but it has stayed with me and few movies do these days. It is original and creative and really kinda awesome.
