Stay (2021)
Strong Ending!
This is an unusual indie horror movie. It uses a reality TV meets YouTube style to tell the story of a fashion model in NYC. It's a small budget effort, but it has some good ideas and a lot of witty exchanges between characters. I was intrigued by the possibility of a dark fate for the the young couple...and this movie really goes nuts at the end! One thing you can say about this indie film is that it
It covers a lot of emotional ground. The nice optimistic beginning is just a distant memory by the end. For the $10 they had to spend on this, I was very entertained. Most importantly... Scary ending!
Mimic (1997)
Dark and interesting.
I revisited Mimic recently, and it was certainly better than I remembered it. The atmosphere is dark, and so is the cinematography for that matter. I sometimes strained to see what was going on. But after many years, I think this movie holds up pretty well. I recommend it to my fellow horror film aficionados.
The Power (2021)
More promise than power!
This movie has a brilliant concept and all the basic ingredients for a strong supernatural film. In the end, I think the good performances could only take the movie so far before the story strains credibility. I still enjoyed the 'Power' and found it to be for the most part, an interesting and well told chiller!
Mama (2013)
Paranormal Fantasy!
When the story has one foot in reality, the paranormal elements really shine. When The CGI mamma character fills the screen with her grimacing face and spindly body... not as much. I still loved it and would recommend the film to paranormal horror enthusiasts!
