Stella: Camping (2005)
I agree--funniest episode of the series
A friend asked me what my favorite episode of Stella was, and I said the mountain man episode. He said, "That's everyone's favorite episode," so I looked it up on IMDb and was surprised that the rating didn't reflect our belief. But one other reviewer thinks it's the funniest too so I'm adding my voice to the chorus.
Rachel's Attic (2002)
Not without merit
Maybe I watch too many amateur microbudget horror films, but I don't get the people who are saying that Rachel's Attic is the worst film ever. It's not even close.
Some things I liked about the film: The fetish killer looked cool. The idea of a Siri-like interface for a home security system was interesting for this movie's time. The surveillance and snuff film ideas were solid. I found the depiction of seedy sex-club and S&M weirdos to be enjoyably over the top although not an accurate representation of the subculture. The film had some gore and some plot twists.
Things that dragged the film down: Uneven performances from the actors. A running length that was too long and needlessly reprised the entire opening segment at the end. Some overly dark scenes. Some unnecessary flashbacks. At 80 minutes long, this would've been an enjoyable regional indie horror film. At about two hours long, it still has its moments but would probably test a lot of viewers' patience.
Love of My Life (2013)
A pretentious mess
The dialogue is strange, the lovers have no chemistry, the Australian actors make inconsistent efforts to hide their accents, the story is ridiculous and ultimately pointless despite the obvious attempt at being profound, and the whole movie goes on for far too long. The film looks good and has a few scenes (or parts of scenes) that work, but most of it will leave you shaking your head in disbelief.
