Alien Opponent (2010)
A fun sci-fi horror comedy with Berserker Roddy Piper
This movie really delivers with the gore. It could be hard for people to accept because it sets up a lot of your typical action hero characters and then kills them off in silly ways. A lot of people accidentally kill each other. But it delivers with Roddy Piper and you even get the ending that you would want from a movie like this but the director says no I'm going to give you the ending I want and that's where it kind of goes off the rails in the last 15 minutes. I kind of wish that was included as an alternate ending on the disc. I think this would have been more of a cult classic if he just gave us the ending we wanted. Up until that point the movie really delivers especially if you're a fan of Roddy Piper and B movies. You'll be surprised with all the directions this movie goes. And even when it goes the direction you don't want it to go, you still get something that you hope for-Berserker Roddy Piper.
Homicycle (2014)
Motorcycle Mayhem
The people that made this obviously were wanting to pay homage to campy '80s movies. So if you're into those then I think you'll dig this. Just shut off your brain and have a good time. I would have rather had more mayhem than the intermission but it does add to the old school feel.
This movie is badass! There's some cool death scenes as long as you're fine with obvious low budget gore effects but it just adds to the low budget charm of the movie! This combines the revenge plot of The Wraith with camp of Nail Gun massacre(there's one kill that pays homage). Throw in some so bad it's good dialogue, A grindhouse aesthetic with a killer soundtrack! And you're in for one hell of a ride!
A Day to Die (2022)
A Good Crime Movie
This movie ticks all the boxes of a crime thriller and it has some interesting twists. It has some good action sequences. And Bruce Willis is actually in scenes with people and it looks like he's giving a performance. His scenes are limited but they're well done and he and he plays good bad guy. This and gasoline Alley are some of the best movies I've seen out of all Bruce Willis's releases because the story are good and the actors around him are good. It's kind of interesting to see him as the bad guy. I'd still like to see a movie that he stars in and puts a good effort with a decent budget.
The Commando (2022)
Not worthy of commando
Don't call the movie The commando and less it's balls to the wall action like the original commando! The movie opens with an excellent action scene that's filmed well. But that causes PTSD for the character so he spends the majority of the rest of the movie having PTSD and then we don't get action again until the last 15 or 20 minutes. There's one good fight and some gun-fu. I liked seeing Mickey Rourke in the movie but after establishing Him as a badass in prison, I feel like the fight with Michael Jai White wasn't impressive. A badass name for an OK movie.
Black Bear (2020)
She deserves an award!
I think Audrey plaza is a comedic genius. And I'd like her to continue to do comedies. But this movie proves that she can freaking act! I could see her finding success in more dramatic roles but what I like about her acting is it stands out compared to most dramatic actors! Every look has so much nuance and meaning. I really felt like her character was going through! Audrey really knows how to take the audience on a journey!
BorderCross (2017)
A good Direct to video action movie
I don't know what people are expecting but this was a decent action movie. The actors were good. It had a good plot. The action was well done. I think the only thing missing was Lorenzo lamas doesn't throw any kicks because he's a boxer in the movie. This movie is not anything special but it's entertaining and does not deserve a low rating because it's a standard direct-to-video movie. Danny Trejo only in a few scenes where there's talking but if you're a fan of Lorenzo lamas it's worth your time.
The Gardener (2021)
Another Fun old school Action movie
Escape from Death block 13 delivered More with the action but this movie had more heart and character development. The action does deliver in the third act. And there's some good fights and gardening tools used as weapons. I felt like bronzie wasn't as good in the fight scenes. But that might have been on purpose because it fits the character because he's just an everyday Gardener and that made the bad guys underestimate him. He was Forced to use his army skills to protect the people He cares about and Kick-Ass. This is an indie movie so the acting is ok enough but it was shot well by the directors. I look forward to their next movie. I think they could do a lot with a bigger budget. Shut off your brain and enjoy a fun action movie with a twist on the home invasion sub genre.
Dexter: New Blood (2021)
The Shame is on you.
I wasn't into this at the beginning because I think the setting was better in the original series. There was just a lot more fun to be had. But because an interesting villain that presented some new challenges for Dexter and his ability to open up to his son about who He really is, I really got into the show but after seeing the mini-series finale. I realized that the writers of this season are ashamed of Dexter. And they might have already been ashamed of Dexter towards the end of the original series. Because they're against vigilantism as idea, I assume. That's why throughout the season his sister is constantly talking him down and is unbearable and it makes her character really unlikable but the truth is they are trying to get you to not like Dexter because they see him as the bad guy and they want you to see him as the bad guy. And to do that they make Dexter do things that are out of character and they make him look really stupid! Even though throughout the series and even in the new season Dexter is very intelligent for the most part. And this is all done to prop up the female characters as usual because that's what it's about. It's about destroying male characters so we can prop up female characters and make them look like empowered, independent, intelligent Women. The shows not supposed to be about a small town female cop, the show supposed to be about Dexter. Even though his actions in the past got people killed he was still the hero... Even though he's a complex antihero. And in this season they went out of their way to destroy that. The rating for this went from an 8 to a 3 after that finale because I realized what they were trying to the whole season. So you know what I don't consider this Canon. And I'm not ashamed of Dexter! I'm not ashamed of liking a serial killer that enjoys killing other serial killers!
Escape from Death Block 13 (2021)
For Fans of mindless 90s action!
Just turn your brain off and enjoy the action! There were plenty of moments that put a smile on my face. This is just a fun movie that delivers what you see on the cover! Sure this is low budget and they used CGI for the blood. But the direction is really tight and all the action is shot well! If you're looking for Shakespeare why did you watch this movie anyway. It's not a big budget Hollywood action movie. It's a fun homage to old action movies with a Bronson look alike that's having a good time playing the part because he's a fan Himself.
Gun Woman (2014)
Not for the squeamish
This movie is original and awesome. If you don't like violence don't watch this movie. It's extremely violent. I don't want people to bring down the rating. But this is a revenge movie at heart.
Color Out of Space (2019)
If you're not very patient or intelligent then this is not for you
This is a slow burn like the director's metaphysical horror film Dust Devil final cut. The movie really starts get it going and doesn't stop at the halfway mark. But even though the first half is slow, all of it has meaning and feels right for the film. Like his previous film you have to understand the movie is spiritual and metaphorical. If you're coming into this movie wanting a a typical Hollywood supernatural movie, Then you might be disappointed. But then again you aren't really the the hardcore audience because modern horror sucks mostly. And this isn't a horror movie. This is a metaphysical playground for the senses! Nicolas Cage is over-the-top but if you were in that situation I think you would be losing your mind too. Plus I think he's possessed so all bets are off. If you like body horror and movies that have deep metaphysical meaning and you can use your imagination, I think you'll dig this. This is one trippy experience! It's out of this world and far beyond the senses! So just let go and enjoy the ride!
The Wrong Missy (2020)
Comedy is supposed to be ridiculous!
This movie was hilarious. And for all the people that are saying that the female lead was annoying. she supposed to be! That's the whole plot of the movie! I'd say this is a return to form for Spade. The plot was ridiculous but it's supposed to be and that's what made it funny! If you don't like over the top comedies don't watch this!
The Driver (2019)
An emotional Journey, that's his and hers
I feel if you watch this movie as more of a drama you'll enjoy it more. The beginning of the movie actually has some really good action
and fight scenes and shoot outs, that you would want from Mark dacascos. Essentially, it's two movies. After the first half, I kind of felt like most movies would of ended it there. But the movie changes to this kind of road trip movie where the characters grow together. I think if they would have drawn out the first half then people would be pleased with the movie but by taking a risk and going with more of a story about how the characters deal emotionally with being in an zombie apocalypse. I think some people might be put off with the tonal shift. The movie is more about the relationships with a little bit of action sprinkled in here and there. Reminds me of one of those double packs titled his and hers. In an attempt to make everyone happy the director makes you sit through some stuff that might not be your cup of tea. If you only want coffee.
Distorted (2018)
Ricci
I think this is a return to form for Christina Ricci.
She should be in more rolls like this.
She does great in movies with suspense.
The movie is very engaging and intelligent.
I think it helps if you know how they can use Smart TVs connected to the internet to spy on you. and if you've heard anything about MK Ultra. I wouldn't say you have to know about those things to enjoy this movie but it does give you a framework.
I'd say the only con to the movie was the flashy photography but It kind of goes along with the name distorted but if you're not into that in a movie then this might not be for you.
this movie takes you along for a ride and keeps you guessing all the way till the end and still leaves a little bit to the imagination.
I don't understand the other reviews.This was a very entertaining movie, especially in the third Act.
Between Worlds (2018)
Goes from wtf to amazing cult classic
When the movie starts you think that it's some lame low budget movie but as it progresses it turns into this genius, jacked up, metal movie. It's weird because the movie kind of is very tame in the beginning, the music isnt great but then it progressively gets better and better and the music ramps up then it just explodes in your face. it's so offensive but does it in a way that gets you on board and you just have to see it to believe it. I don't want to ruin it for you but it's worth watching this movie just for the ending, if you love Nick Cage. I literally stood up and clapped but if you're not a Nick Cage fan and not into screwed up movies, then maybe it's not for you.I took a point off for the after it Fades to Black extra ending.I think it was unnecessary because it ended perfectly. but it does explain why the main character is so distant.
Bounty Killer (2013)
Gives us everything we want
If you're not a fan of campy ,post-apocalyptic action movies, why are you even watching this movie!? But if you are a fan you will get everything you're looking for and more. The movie also includes a great love story and its really funny, thanks to the actor who plays the gun caddy. The people that didn't like this movie are not a fan of the genre! Do not listen to them. The average person might see this movie as an 8 but being that I'm a fan of the genre, I thought it was perfect 10 in its class!
