It's ridiculous, but if you want to see Bin Laden, Idi Amin and Thatcher as reptiles then it's the film for you

Shark Attack 3: Megalodon
John Barrowman plays a Lifeguard for a resort who teams up with a scientist lady to kill a prehistoric shark.
Owning some of the worst dialogue and some shitty cgi, this is one of the best shark movies I have ever seen. I can't say anything else.

I tried watching Crocodile 2 and gave up to it, just wasn't in the mood for drivel so watched Khartoum (1966) instead.

A lavish British production starring Charlton Heston, which rivals even his Biblical epics in sheer scale and boasts a top notch cast (Olivier, Ralph Richardson, Richard Johnson and many more) and huge battle scenes to boot.

The Bunny Game 2011.

A prostitute takes a ride with a trucker and endures a nightmare every streetwalker fears.

Filmed in B&W, the films starts off like any other day for a prostitute and drug user, trick, drug use, trick and more drug use and abuse. Rodleen Gestic plays the lead and was a prostitute and uses her vision on what her life was like and admittedly was abducted and tortured. Nothing is held back to the drug taken, Sex and torture that was real. Not for everyone unless torture porn floats your boat.

The Beast Within 1982.

A woman is raped on her wedding night by a man creature, 17 years later her son is shown to have a unusual illness, her husband and herself go back to the small town and uncover a dark secret.

Based on the novel by Edward Levy, Tom Holland and Phillipe Mora try to bring this to the screen, Ronny Cox and Bibi Besch play the happy couple at the start and investigators into the cover up. But seems only half the story is told from the novel and some bad plot holes and laughable monster transformations, there is some dark tense moments that makes it watchable. 6 out of 10.

The Toybox (2018)

On purchasing this for three quid as an Asda impulse buy a couple of months ago i got home to read how terrible a film it was. Not one person seemed to like it...

...But i did!

I liked the fact it didn't deal in loud crashing music and jump scares. It was instead a film where tension built up in little sequences - the kind of thing where someone is sticking their hand into a kitchen waste disposal which you are just waiting for the moment when it turns on by itself and chews their hand to bits. That doesn't actually happen in The Toybox but i'm sure you get my drift.

The plot is simple but silly, involving a family, including Denise Richards, who buy a new (old) camper van or RV as they are known Stateside and head out into the desert where they pick up a pair stranded at the roadside. It soon becomes clear that something is not right and the RV is at the centre of their troubles as death and disaster strike the vacationers.

The acting ranges from quite poor (the father) to good (Mischa Barton, whom i could watch all day to be honest) and the production values are decent including some nice desert cinematography. Thankfully this steers clear of the Hitch Hike (1977) psycho-hostage thriller scenarios and instead concentrates on good old fashioned supernatural scares plus a reasonable amount of gore.

I really can't recommend this film because the whole world and it's dog thinks it's shit but i was pleasantly surprised and rather enjoyed it.
