Jacob's Ladder (2019)
Hollywood has gone too far
When I saw that there was a Jacob's Ladder remake I thought it wasn't serious at first, maybe a fan made short or a trailer for a fake film. Shockingly it's real. Someone thought it was a 'good' idea to remake one of the best horror movies of all time. A film that didn't need to be remade at all. For the last decade an endless amount of remakes and sequels have been coming out as if Hollywood is trying to DESTROY what made the film industry so great. Raise your hands if you want to see yet another unoriginal, milked dry and predictable remake.
Looking past the fact that this remake might as well have been built on top of an Indian burial ground since it was cursed to begin with, it's really cringy how the director tried to give it a new 'spin' by throwing in a main character who looks totally different from the original. It comes off as forced and all of us see right through it. Go destroy more films will ya ? Or maybe produce an actual original idea this time.
Hellriser (2017)
My first 0/10 movie
Never before have I left an IMDb review but also never before have I felt that a movie deserved 0/10. On this site the minimum allowed is 1/10 however trust me I am writing this with the intentions of leaving it as a 0. I watched this with a friend after he mistakenly thought this was Hellraiser, the movie series that I love. Once we quickly realized that no this is not Hellraiser we thought oh well yolo lets watch it anyway. This movie adds absolutely nothing to the horror film industry. It is the same old cliché of naked girls, demons and clueless detectives but in this film take all of those clichés and give them a budget of $12 and you have Hellriser. It is hard to imagine that the producers of this film thought that this would, in anyway, be a movie that would benefit the horror industry. Even the name of it is clearly uninspired and copying another film. The plot is nearly non-existent, you never get to see any cool demons, the entire cast looks cheap and all together everything looked like a High School film project just with more lesbians.
