Some of these films are very good but, again, it shows a lack of ambition on the part of the studios and more original screenplays which will never be seen by the studio executives.

I suppose the flipside to my argument is that these films encourage people to read the books, and that is a major positive.

Resurrection County (2008) When two young couples head from the city into the Southern backwoods for a weekend camping trip, they end up in the remote town of Enoch in Resurrection County. There they run afoul of the locals, who do not take kindly to outsiders. Resurrection County delivers nothing new to the outdoors horror genre, it's all very familiar territory, however where it does differ from it's stablemates is in it's atmosphere. Taking a leaf out of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the film, after the first twenty minutes, turns especially grim and oppressively bleak, the characters situations offering the viewer no chinks of light and not even the remotest bit of humour to lighten things. There's not even a Leatherface to root for, the atrocities we see are all done by "normal" people. Taking in themes of religious extremism to add to the sadism and sexual violence on show, Resurrection County is a well acted, memorable film and comes recommended to fans of outdoor horror.

The 10th Victim Really enjoyed this rather groovy futuristic film, considering its 40 years old, not sure why its still an 18 Cert though, as there are no gruesome parts, no nudity and i dont think any swearing either. The look of the film was spot on for its era, just how they imagined the future. Only complaint was the flesh coloured body armour part.

That way, costumes aside it will never date, and always look relevant. |
