MW. Drag to me Hell

Ok I need to do a couple of checks before I talk about this.
  1. Do you like horror movies? You do great.
  2. Are you slightly squeamish? Like would get a heart attack if someone jumped at you from a bush while brandishing what could possibly be a dildo? Or would you take said blunt instrument and stick it to the masked "ass"assin (Hehe)? If you would do the latter then keep reading.
  3. Do you like seeing gooey stuff? Yeah. That's kinda gross but I guess everyone has their own kicks.
  4. Would you say that humor is needed in a horror? Sweet.
If you've got this far then I feel pretty safe to say, that you'll like Drag me to Hell.


I can guarantee that there will be some part that will literary make you jump or hide behind your eyes. Actually it's more then likely that it'll happen again and again. I know this for a fact as it did actually happened loads of times to myself and my date.
There is some poor acting (I've seen trees that are less wooden, hell even Mr Reeves is more animated) but the movie will keep throwing things at you. Actually it would probably be better to say that it keeps throwing up things at you. That's where the gooey stuff comes into it. I don't think I've ever seen so many things pulled out of the oral orifice in all the movies that I've ever seen. You named it, they pulled it. It ranged from the obvious stuff for a horror movie like Maggots to the not so obvious like cute little kitties.

Free at last!

Another plus for the movie is that it was directed by Sam Raimi, famous for films such as Spiderman and Evil Dead. With two such big francises under his belt you know that this was going to be good. That it will have the graphical power of an action movie and the thrills of a horror.

The man himself.

Below is the trailer, to tell you the truth it doesn't do the movie any favors. It's good but doesn't convey the full jump out of your seat experience that there is.

P.S. A quick little note for people who may think that girl on girl action is hot and cool. If you want to keep those prevy images of girls getting it on intact, then don't go and see this film. It takes a whole new meaning to the saying "snoging her face off".

MW. This is who Sheva should of been



Mama Bimkubwa. If they only used her as a base for Sheva. It doesn't have to be her 100% (although that would of been for the best).
If Mama Bimkubwa was with me in the marshlands I wouldn't be scared of going into the water or on the platforms where the Alligators are, I know that I would be in save hands and that she would save me.
Plus did you see the way she handled that Lion? And that was without any fire power! Can you imagine her with some guns. She could easily take on a little army of Lickers.
But this advert has raised up another point that I only notice was missing from Resi Evil 5. Where the f*** are the animals? And I don't mean cats and dogs. I mean the Lions and Elephants. Sweet crap how good would it have been if they had mutated Lions instead of Dogs?
There was only bad thing about this ad. Do I really want to know how gorgeous her Red Bush is? She doesn't even look like a red head.

MW. Super Mario Bros. The film not the game.


Was I one of the only people on the planet to like this movie? I admit I was young at the time (7 I think) so most of it went over my head. But it was still a good movie right? Actually I haven't watched it since I was 7. But I do remember enjoying it a lot.
When a movie is based on a game it normally flops. Super Mario Bros is just an example of this sadly, but the reason is quite clear for this. They don't follow the games story. Think about it. The Super Mario Bros movie actually has a decent story line. The problem is that they try to merge that story with the Mario franchise. Bowser is not a evolved version of a T-Rex. Nor is toad a reptile. Could you imagine if they made a Live Action Pokemon Movie but instead of catching them to battle, they were invading and you had to catch them to send back into space? Sucks, don't it?
Another example of this is the Tomb Raider movies. Both movies stick as close as possible to the games. And both movies are very successful.

Just to take my point further, I want you to watch the following clip:


Now if you were to watch that clip without the Mario-ness. The Bomb-Bomb, the names, the gun that looks like a SNES Super Scope (well make it a different shape at least) etc. that you would of had a decent movie.

It's times like these where I wish I had the skill to make a movie. Maybe that's not it. Maybe I just lack the movation. What ever it is I know that if I was to make a Video Game movie I would show every one excatly how to do it. Keep the main charaters in, do an ocassional refferance to a sub charater, try to get as many items as possible into the mix and the most imporant thing of all, KEEP. TO. THE. ORGINAL. PLOT.

MW. Media Wednesday

Animated Wednesday has evolved into Media Wednesday. I will still do my reviews of Anime and Manga and all of the flash videos but I'll be able to talk about movie, comics and even art (if I'm feeling cultured).
So to get right into the flow here's a trailer for what I believe will be one of the best comedies this year.
Bruno.


If this even half as funny as Borat then it will brilliant.
There are too many quotes to chosse from but I feel that this one will do for today.
