My Thoughts:
What to say about this movie? This film has the honor of being the first ever horror movie I seen. Since then I have become a complete horror fanatic. My all time favorite genre. This film is almost 35 years old now... and I must say it is just as good today as the day it first came out. It has a stellar cast... it has fantastic atmosphere... an outstanding creepy film. I can't think of any way this film could be better. While extremely long at 144 minutes... it doesn't seem like it while watching. This movie grabs your attention for the beginning and holds it to the very end... and seems to be over before you know it. If by some weird chance you never seen this film yet... it is one I cannot recommend any higher... is a must see!

My Thoughts:
Years ago when this film first came out on DVD I tried to watch this one... and just couldn't get into it. After watching it I just felt confused... unsure what I just seen and a bit on the bored side. Since that time I watched the first two Hobbit movies. Getting to know the characters and the storyline much better. Going into this film with more of an understanding of the characters and the storyline I find myself loving this series of films. I now can not wait to watch both The Two Towers and The Return of the King for the very first time ever. Wow... what a difference a little background info has done for me! It gave me a complete turnaround on my opinion of this film. This is a film I will definitely recommend now... but if you are like me and have no previous knowledge of the stories... do yourself a favor and watch The Hobbit films first!

My Thoughts:
I didnt know this was out, before i saw it in the store on sale. So i had to have it. And i've enjoyed the 3 first Paranormal movies. The 4th was ok. So going in to this i didnt have any expactations at all. And for me i guess  that helped. The story in this was a bit different then what we have seen in the 4 first movies. And that helped alot. And it had some moments here and there. If you have seen the first 4 movies and liked them, check this one out aswell.

My Thoughts:
I got this one on a spur of the moment impulse buy... mainly got it because it was very cheap and the overview on the back cover sounded slightly interesting. I found it to be a fun movie... I have seen better romantic comedies... but feel this one is above average. Definitely worth the time put in to watch it. It is a cute story with a few funny moments.

My Thoughts:
I've had this in my unwatched pile for ever, and decided to finally check it out. The movie is a typical action thriller revenge kinda thing. Kevin Bacon is playing a father who lose his family to some random gangbang attack. And after that ofc he's on a mission to get revenge for his family. And the movie have its moments here and there and Kevin Bacon is actually brilliant in this one. Not the best thriller i've seen, but not the worst either.
