The Crazies 2010.

In Ogden Marsh, Iowa, the peaceful residents start to turn psychotic and kill those around them, the local sheriff is bewildered until the town is under quarantine and tries to find the answers and survive.

This was a decent remake of the 70s film, from the start there is a good build up and wastes no time to get at the thrill of the story. At some scenes it acts like it's going to drag on then back to horror of psychotic people. Timothy Olyphant (Hitman) takes on the role as the sheriff and Radha Mitchell (Man On Fire) plays the wife and local doctor. From start to finish the pace moves decently with a few good tense bits and good kills. Recommended.

Zombie Flesheaters

Still the best Exploito film title ever.
A reporter and an anxious relative travel to a remote island in search of answers about a 'missing' family member. Aided by determination (and a couple with a boat :skull:), they all find that sometimes no news is good news COUGH.
I can only try and imagine what watching this now would be like. The things that keeps me awake :skull::skull:
Ahem.
Now I'm going to listen to a director speak about his film :ghostclap:

A homage to all those zombie movies especially Romero's. One of the best modern zombie movies. 9.5/10

Day 28

Four councillors go to work in a summer camp in the Spanish countryside. The day before the kids arrive a rage virus breaks out first the animals then the people.

I feel a headache coming on after watching this rubbish whenever anything happens we get the old shaky cam going on its so hard to watch i kept finding myself having to look away it was so annoying. The next annoyance was the virus was changing from person to person i mean they were actually taking turns being infected then the first person who was infected went back to normal only for someone else to be the infected one.

A taste of how stupid the dialogue was

Spanish man : Papa

American Girl : WHAT IS HE SAYING

Other Guy : Father

:skull::skull::skull::skull::skull::skull::skull:: skull:

Not good / 10

House of 1000 Corpses (2003)

https://images.amcnetworks.com/ifc.c...00_corpses.jpg

I knew I'd made the right choice as soon as the date card popped up on the screen, 30th October 1977, if that's not serendipity then I don't know what is :lol:

A re-watch of the completley bonkers fever dream of a movie by Rob Zombie, it's absolutely what I imagined a White Zombie song would 'look' like. Even if Baby is slightly annoying in this first installment at times, Sheri Moon plays it perfectly. It's been quite a while since I saw this, so it blew my mind that both Rainn Wilson and Chris Hardwick are the 2 lads, both have gone onto much more mainstream things since! I'm looking forward to The Devil's Rejects later on in the week and then 3 From Hell at some point soon too :)

Nightbreed isn't that bad :skull: will agree that Near Dark is a slow burner, decent thing about it is the soundtrack but that's all it's good for IMHO

Day 30

Attachment 220464

When the undead walk the earth all law and order has broken down humanity is on its last legs and hope is fading fast there is no where left to run what choice do you have all you can do is call


THE ZOMBIE SQUAD yes thats what they are called :skull::skull::skull:

This film doesn't have a low budget its had no budget by the looks of it. Filmed on a Nokia 3210 this films looks a little rough and cheap. The dialogue and acting is horrible but the gore and effects more than make up for it sometimes it looks like a prop bought from a halloween shop and other times it looks fantastic. There are some great character names too Reverend Jones Dr Savini Raimi and Carpenter and the first Zombie we see is trying to rent Romero's Zombie movies at a video store :skull: For a film that looks like a couple of mates found a camera and had nothing else to do that weekend this is actually pretty good fun if only you are making fun of the film its still entertaining and i have seen much worse tonight already :skull::skull::skull:

In every scene there seems to be a zombie that sounds exactly like Janice from friends scary stuff indeed.:skull:

Great make up and gore and a lot of charm considering the obvious restraints this films had financially and it did make me laugh even if it wasn't the original intention of the film makers.

7/10
