Mirrors (2008) French director Alexandre Aja seems to have a knack of revisiting other people's work and adding a refreshing new spin on things. (Perhaps Dean Koontz would beg to differ though.) I thoroughly enjoyed The Hills Have Eyes, and Piranha was ok as well. Mirrors is a remake of a Korean supernatural horror which i haven't seen, titled Into The Mirror, so any comparisons are redundant. Fortunately Mirrors ,which stars Keifer Sutherland, is an absorbing, chilling tale with startling gore effects. Although for stretches the pacing is a little off and the film runs about 20 minutes too long. However the film's overall concept about your reflection causing you harm is well played and creates a spooky and at times jaw dropping narrative. Easily the best movie about haunted mirrors to date. Then again the competition isn't that strong. Recommended. |

o_silent-assassins-dvd-80s-ninja-exploitation-film-be56.jpg A Bio-chemist /scientist i cant remember its not really explained is kidnapped along with a little random Japanese child how this came about is even more stupid than the fact that they decided to take her along for the ride in the first place. The Bio terrorists that kidnap the scientist want a formula he has been working on so they hold the world to ransom with a bio weapon. If you like Biology you will love this I only picked this up because Linda Blair was in it and looking at her holding that gun on the cover i was led to believe she would be kicking ass but she just spends half movie moaning about not getting to spend enough time with her cop boyfriend and the other half in bed with him and you guessed it still moaning about how she does not get to spend time with him At times it can be extremely cheesey but over all its a fun film with some really good action. The gang of bad guys were the highlight there were a strange mixture of ninjas in camo cloths wearing balaclavas and using what looked like medieval weapons. Very enjoyable way to pass 88 minutes if you are in to that sort of thing.

Finally got around to watching The Others recently. Thought it was a nice tribute to movies like The Haunting and The Innocents, though those are certainly better in my opinion.
