One Missed Call (2008)
Turd of a film
WTF? Ed Burns phoned in his part, the plot sucks, and it's not scary. The poster art for this movie was cool and it was out on Blu Ray so as a horror fan I was IN, although I had never heard of the movie, and I live in a major market. Now I know why. They grab clichés, exploit a thin plot, and generally this is a waste of time. I got this as a Netflix, so whatever, but what a waste of movie watching time. I can deal with mediocre horror movies - as a huge fan of the genre you expect that more often than not. But this doesn't hold up. I know this is a remake of a Japanese horror flick - but if you are into that grab The Grudge, Dark Water or others that at least have atmosphere. By the time the plot unfolds you will probably be doing something else. And you won't have missed much. Not recommended.
Microwave Massacre (1979)
Hilarious
I was lucky enough to have a "mom and pop" video shop in my hometown growing up that had movies like this and "Jailbait Babysitter" among its horror selections. My brother and I have been using the phrase "Gourmet Cuisine", pronounced "goreMET Cuezine" ever since we first saw it. The acting is ridiculously bad, and read in a very deadpan way. I think John Waters shows this one when he wants to provide direction to actors. If you are renting a movie titled "Microwave Massacre" hopefully it means A)you have a campy appreciation for bad movies, or B) You are so stupid that title actually might mean a quality film to you. In either situation, you won't be disappointed. This is so bad it transcends! Check it out if you want to see something, er, unique and stupidly funny!
