Grief can be a witch – or a curse. Whatever it’s called, you have toopen yourself up (quite literally) to get rid of it.

The story and topics are important and interesting ones. And overallthis is well made. But it didn’t really grab me for some reason. Maybebecause sometimes it felt to me that the delivering of the horrors wereoverdone – especially the ending. The special effects were sometimesmore of a distraction.

But overall a good film, with quite a few good scenes. I would watchRemi Weekes’ next one.

Production-wise, this is probably the best part of the Friday 13thseries. Camera work, lighting, sound, are all at least one level up fromthe usual production quality.

It starts very strong in my opinion. But then it goes into thissmall-American-town kind of vibe, which I don’t know, if it fits. Onitself this is a solid film, but in the series, this is the odd one out(so far – haven’t seen “X”). The special effects à la “The Thing” or“Alien” are totally my thing, and were probably the best thing about it.The characters were a bit too “Police Academy”-ish, with The Duke beingborder-line annoying.

In conclusion: a solid movie, but I feel like this would’ve been betteras a one-off rather than being part of the Jason-franchise.

This is more like “Jason takes the ferry” – because Manhattan content isindeed a bit thin. Anyhow, I liked this for the most part. Certainly oneof the better ones in this series. This has quite a bit of humour. Ienjoyed the stunts. The cheesy soundtrack, NY clichés and a nice guitarscene are not to be discounted, either. Solid!

I’m probably wrong about this one. Because I found this to be so bad, I question my own judgement, given all those other overwhelmingly positive reviews about it. But having been through it, I now also question my own favourable review of its predecessor “Knives Out”.

To begin with, this is wayyy too long. It tries very hard being trendy. And funny. Well, I didn’t laugh. It was just silly. Most folks’ acting got on my nerves. The story is pretty constructed. It wasn’t suspenseful. I didn’t like a lot about the filming and editing itself. The ending is just ridiculous. I’m sorry, but It’s been an eye roller for me. And again, I’m probably wrong. Maybe I just didn’t get it.

Well, merry Christmas! This is such a downer!

I think this was very well made and I felt it was nuanced enough toshine a light on opposites sites of what can be a very complicatedtopic.

I can recommend this, if you want to be informed about this topic. Justdon’t expect to not feel depressed afterwards.

Lovingly made. Good soundtrack. But not quite my cup of frog’s breath.

My kind of movie! A story that could well be true. Great dialogue,perfectly delivered (Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson are just 👌),lots of attention to detail, interestingly filmed, great charactersthroughout, funny, heartbreaking. Remarkable front to back!

Loved the atmosphere of this film. And that it’s filmed in black andwhite. So, visually, this was already nice. Pair this with an Iranianvampire girl protagonist, great humour and a top-notch soundtrack andyou have a very fun movie!

I probably didn’t fully appreciate V’s lyrical outpour, but I stillenjoyed it very much. Lot’s of “1984”, conspiracy-theories themes and aninteresting master-apprentice kind of relationship. Nice one!

Russian Circles is the instrumental post-metal band I keep coming back to.

That middle riff in “Conduit” is just perfect!

Even though I’m sometimes absolutely not looking forward to taking the dog for a walk, because, well, I have to and it’s not a matter of choice (unless I train her to go to the toilette), I do enjoy the stroll through the forest. I enjoy it any time of the year as each has its nice bits. Autumn creates a morbid atmosphere sometimes. Trees drop their leaves to the ground, where they rot. Nothing really ever gets dry in this time. The fog in the morning feels mystical and the trees without their leaves can appear a bit spooky. Reply via Email

I guess it is “for 2023” since we are close to the end of the year, but a lot of those typefaces are lovely in general. And I love the fact that one by Ulrike Rausch is listed here. ;)

Jason must stink for miles by now. It’s a miracle he’s still able to surprise-kill anyone at this point.

For me, same is true as with part 6: not the best, not the worst (I think?!). I somewhat liked the ending when Jason’s “face” is revealed and everything explodes. The supernatural hocus-pocus wasn’t that bad either.

Oh, yeah, and I found the very ending hilarious where the one firefighter shows the other where there’s more fire to extinguish – as if that wasn’t obvious.

On to part eight…

This episode certainly has humour! Jason seems to be surprised by hisown new-found super-strength. And that makes for some funny kills.

It’s mostly fun to watch (if you’re into that stuff). We certainlyalways have an enjoyable evening progressing through this series. Butultimately, it suffers from the same issues most other parts sufferfrom. Not the worst so far, but no the best either.

Ok, I have much to complain about with this one. This feels like 80% endless action scenes and 20% story. If you’re into those bullet-time, kung-fu, wire-flying, super-CGI, camera-flying scenes, that will be just your thing, I guess. But I found this eye-rollingly boring. This could have been a one-hour film. It’s not like I dislike all of it; there were certainly good scenes – even partly said action scenes! But overall it’s way too long and unsubstantial. It’s even like the story didn’t progress at all in this.

At least Trinity could simply ssh into a computer and disable the emergency power supply of that building with a simple terminal command. Much more realistic than those UIs in their real world.

And it had RATM in the ending credits.

What a likeable dude, this John Carpenter. Just doing his thing, makingthe films he wants to make; not giving a shit what others think.Although having “The Thing” flop commercially really got to him. And hehad every right to be upset about this; because it’s such a terrificfilm. Anyhow, this documentary gives lots of insights about his carrierand his filmography. Worth a watch, especially when you’re into hiswork!

A great documentary about a great album. Lots of fantastic interviewswith the people involved as well as notable critics of the time. It’s alot about how this album came to be and what its unexpected successmeant for Nirvana and music (-history) in general. Some excellent livefootage, too.

Still not much to complain about. Such a classic!

Really interesting read over there at iA about pricing software. Furthermore you are able to tell iA how much IA Presenter should cost in your opinion.
