One of the most amazing pieces of stop motion I've ever seen. I've not seen the like since the works Bruce Bickford. I can't even imagine how much time and dedication this took. In terms of the plot it's...confusing? I admit I didn't really get it. It's not really a horror movie, it's unsettling and surreal like a David Lynch movie. It definitely makes you feel like something awful is going to happen, but it never really does. That said, I'd recommend it to anyone on technical brilliance alone.

David Lynch: The Art Life
(2016)
It's only about his art
5 April 2018
Let's face it, David Lynch is fascinating for his movies, not his art. I came into this movie blind, not knowing what it was about. I suppose I should have been tipped off by the title. It's shots of Lynch working in his art studio, a few shots of his actual artwork (very few), and a voice over of some of his childhood. It bored me to death.
Red Sands
(2009)
Slow ,pointless, waste of time
10 May 2009
Warning: Spoilers
I decided to watch this based on the few good reviews posted here and all I can say is thanks for tricking me out of two hours of my life! If you've been watching horror movies since the 80's as I have I don't see how you can possibly enjoy this movie.
A group of dysfunctional soldiers manages to release a Djinn by shooting a statue.... maybe?! The movie never bothers to show you where the thing came from.
The Djinn is a shape-shifter which manages to isolate and destroy each member of the team one by one in a thoroughly gruesome way.... is what I'd like to say! What actually happens is the thing kills one guy! And we don't even get to see it happen he just shows up dead. After that the team starts to fall apart and they all kill each other. The Djinn may or may not have played a part in this it's not really made clear. Mostly the Djinn spends the whole movie as an Arabic woman crouched in the corner... how terrifying! If this is how Djinn kill people we may as well free them all, we manage to kill ourselves ten times faster than they ever could.
When we finally see "the monster" it's just more of the computer generated garbage you see in all low budget horror flicks nowadays.
This movie is so bad it's on the level of being a SciFi original.
