Darlin' (2019)

Okay, so this is the third movie in “The Woman” collection, and definitely not my favorite. But it is Pollyanna McIntosh’s directorial debut, AND she reprises her role as “The Woman” here.

Exam (2009)

Friday, June 24, 2016

This movie had a lot of promise but did a lot of stupid things. In turn, its characters also did a lot of stupid things. It’s still a decent watch, but don’t hold your breath waiting for it to get better – it won’t.

I did like the opening credits sequence though. While it wasn’t totally understated, it did a better job setting the tone and mood for the movie than any other part of the movie did. It’s also where the music really shines in this one, especially since it’s a bit overdone throughout the rest of the film.

Let Us Prey (2014)

Friday, November 4, 2016

I think I have a thing for Pollyanna McIntosh. She’s just so good in everything she does. Well, okay, she’s normally not good (character-wise) but her acting is fantastic. Here was no exception. Well, okay, it was kind of an exception – her character was actually good in this one. (Spoilers ahead) In fact, she was really the only good one in this movie.

Offspring (2009)

Once again I don’t have much to say about a film. I still like Pollyanna McIntosh. She’s credited as “The Woman” in this film, which I have to assume serves as a prequel? Sequel? to The Woman, particularly since Jack Ketchum wrote the screenplays for both movies (with help, of course) and Pollyanna McIntosh seems to be the same character in both.

Tales of Halloween (2015)

Normally I have trouble rating anthology films. Often the segments vary in quality, tone, or entertainment value. I had no trouble rating this one, though. Five out of five, no question. Well, some questions.

Wow. I liked this movie way more than I anticipated. I watched it in broad daylight and it was still absolutely terrifying.

White Settlers (2014)

Saturday, November 5, 2016

Have you ever had the desire to go off the grid and move to the countryside in the middle of nowhere? This movie will shake that desire out of you pretty quickly. In fact, you might just find yourself shaken in general after watching this one (I certainly did).
