Scream (2022)
SURPRISINGLY GOOD!
Great cinematography, the scares are well-orchesterated and for guys who witnessed the debut of the series, this is a huge trip down memory lane!
(I am not eveb a fan of the scream series)
Paranormal (2020)
Excellent production
For an Egyptian, I'm obviously proud of that production. But putting that aside objectively, the storyline is inspired by comics that we read as kids and masterfully implemented on the screen.
The cinematography and scene transition are very artistically executed with authentic sound effects from Egyptian folklore made this production a spooky one, but that's what horror is about, isn't it?
Regardless of few goofs that don't suit the time period in regards to building constructions and costume design but the overall is very good.
I recommend more scrutiny to the stories chosen for the second part and possibly a bit of scene variety and enhancement of CGI effects.
Great effort from the cast, thank you for an enjoyable experience.
The Last Days of American Crime (2020)
Intensely boring
The movie suffers from horrible acting, long unreal action scenes, a plethora of plot holes and has NOTHING to do with the stopping of the american crime
I recommend not to watch with all my heart, those are 2 hours and a half you'll never get back!
The Exorcist (1973)
Best Horror Movie Ever!
The antiquity of this movie can only add to its brilliance and coronation as the scariest movie of all time. With that being said, The substantial amount of work put in by the director & the crew to introduce such brief scenes of pure horror that would love you sleepless for nights to come can only leave you applauding while the credits are being shown.
Reading the background of filming this movie, William Friedkin has taken extraordinary measures to ensure the desired effects are being executed on the screen as an artist perfecting his canvas. At that time, the early 70s, little or no technical backup surrounded a production of a movie unlike nowadays when efficient CGI effects can produce better results, back then they relied on makeup & props to get the effect done.. knowing that, you can only admire the production.
I was born early in the 80s, though I find this movie unprecedented in its being a masterpiece, probably the best possession movie I've ever seen. The devotion of the crew, the production of real-time reactions through scaring the actors, the absolute devotion of Mercedes McCambridge into producing the demon voice while regurgitating on food, being tied to a chair just to simulate a voice, the amazing performance of Linda Blair as Regan are all wrapped up in a dark and twisted masterpiece.
The real boldness of this movie lies in the fact that it was released back in 1974 when obscenities were not freely allowed in movies, when religion was a bit more of a cornerstone of the society than nowadays.. displaying scenes of such content was guaranteed to produce turmoil in the audience base, it was expected that the movie would be banned on some scale, which actually happened.. yet, the director insisted on fulfilling his vision.
Simply the best horror movie ever.
