Meh. I know this is a cult classic – and that’s why I wanted to see it –but I didn’t like it that much. I appreciate the story, but I felt theexecution was lagging. I couldn’t easily follow the plot. After readingthe Wikipedia article on it, I noticed that I think I understood most ofwhat happened. But certainly not everything, and it was more work thanentertainment.
After the two previous not-that-great instalments of this franchise,this was again very good! Jason is just evil, menacing and capable, thekills are much more creative again, it has suspense, great stunts andoverall fantastic humour. On to part 5…
A beautiful film! I would’ve probably liked this even better as a teen.But I’ve just now watched this. Still somehow things felt somewhatfamiliar.
I did only see the German dubbed version, so I think it’d be worth it toat some point see the original.
At first I thought: ah, this seems a little too silly and old-school; doI really want to watch this? But then it convinced me more and more.
It’s pretty scary stuff. Plus super-violent and splattery. And thatending!! Old-school effects galore!
Remarkable film. Didn’t regret this at all!
Maybe towards the end, it’s a bit longer than necessary. But other thanthat I was again very well entertained for almost 3 hours.
The splatter is just so over the top it’s ridiculous! And so much fun.Despite the serious topic. Poah, and that first Mandingo fight scene inMonsieur Candie’s mansion is almost unbearably violent and cruel.Justified IMO, but bloody hell!
Acting, script, pace, etc. all perfect. Very satisfying revenge film.
I’m so into this album again – or even still. It’s fascinating to me, how you can do that much with only three instruments (at a time). And then the vocals add another layer. So, I’m really enjoying discovering and analysing all the different parts. It just keeps giving. And TOOL’s great live performance certainly played a huge part in making me dive into this again.
Very well deserved that this is the first album to appear a second time in this list.
Mal wieder mit dem Kind einen Film geguckt. Dieser ist sehr zu empfehlenals Einstieg: keine bedrohlichen Szenen, nicht zu lang, es sind ehereinzelne Episoden in einem Film – aber mit einem leicht zu verstehendemübergeordneten Thema.
Mit fast fĂĽnf hat sie die ganze Zeit aufmerksam zugeguckt und oft auchgelacht. Und auch fĂĽr Erwachsene ist der durchaus unterhaltsam.
This was more of a dumb-phone than a smart-phone. The supernatural neverexplained, unnecessarily violent in places, constructed jump-scares, andkid-characters that weren’t believable. I don’t know why Ethan Hawkeeven “starred” in this. It’s also a weird mix of some highschool movie,“Silence of the lambs”-style thriller and “the sixth sense”. But inboring. I’m sorry!
Objectively, this wasn’t a good movie. It just wasn’t suspenseful atall. And the ideas? Meh!
We still had a great evening, though! Part 3 is missing in ourcollection, which held us back from continuing the series. Luckily Udocame around with the DVD box set, so that we could finally continue. Wewere made aware that this was filmed in “3D”, featuring the usual “woah,something’s flying towards the camera” moments. Hilarious! So, this andits trashiness in general entertained us very well.
I just re-watched the two trailers that Andy BrĂĽgemann and Stefan Nitzsche released before the pandemic for their documentary about my beyond tellerrand (@btconf) events. And even though it feels strange to listen to myself or knowing there is a film to be released about what I do, I have to say, that I said many things that are still and always counting for me. I love to run these events from deep out of my heart and I am excited for what is coming. Despite the tough times all event organisers experience right now. Because the majority of people I know who run events, do it because it is their true passion. Thanks for each and everyone supporting this for more than 10 years now.
23 shows in 45 days all over the world. Made possible by using their ownplane, piloted by their singer Bruce Dickinson. You get to know the bandmembers – a very likeable bunch – and it includes live clips of theirhits. What’s not to like? Right: nothing!
Finally developed some rolls of film again. It’s been months since the last time.
Made 1.5 litres of fresh fixer, got the 5-reel tank out of the cupboard and developed some HP5 @1600. One of those rolls was from back in December.
A second batch – 5 rolls of APX 400 – is also already hanging to dry. Feels good to make progress on that front again. (But let’s not talk about the scanning backlog or posting to the journal, ok!?)
Another fun daily movie guessing game. And an instant favourite!
Red Fang on this year’s Hellfest. The band rocks hard. The crowd goes wild. And all beautifully filmed and edited with great sound.
If you’re short on time, watch “Wires” in the middle of the set. Perfect!
🇫🇷 @Red Fang, c’est un groupe né à Portland, dans l’Oregon. La formation se compose de Brian Giles au chant et à la guitare, Aaron Beam au chant et à la ba...
As far as Zombies movies go, this certainly does not deviate from the usual plot. But the Zombies are filmed in an interesting way, emphasising their insanity and speed. I prefer my Zombies rather slow and clumsy, though. But this definitely had some good scenes! Some special effects were sub-par unfortunately. But overall I was well entertained. The characters were good, and I liked the sad yet beautiful ending.
“Municipal Waste is gonna FUCK YOU UP! Municipal Waste is gonna FUCK YOU UP!”
Those guys are always delivering a good mood. You wanna crack one open and then party along. Plus, their bass player – Land Phil – also has a mean sound.
I was looking for bass inspiration – both for playing and sound – and decided to check out Muse’s Chris Wolstenhome in more detail. And I ended up listening to that playlist quite a bit recently.
