"Beast Within (Virus Undead)" ~ 2008
Netflix description = A group of friends partying in a remote mansion battle flesh eating monsters and birds infected with a new strain of Avian flu that turns its victims into zombies. Armed with flamethrowers, they barricade themselves inside.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This was an ok, entertaining movie. Combining bird flu with a zombie virus definitely creates chaos. At times it seemed to really drag, but not enough to get boring. My opinion, unless you really hate ravens, I would recommend it as an average British horror movie.
My score 3/5

"The Frozen"
"The Frozen" ~ 2012
Netflix description = Stranded deep in the wintry forest after a snow mobile accident, city slickers Emma and Mike find themselves at the mercy of a creepy, silent hunter who begins to stalk them. The situation gets even more nightmarish for Emma when Mike disappears.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sigh... This was another slow, disappointing movie. Lots of snow and whining! Also there is nothing creepy about the sexy hunter, heck he was one of the best parts of the movie! The story was ok, but totally predictable and again - - boring! My opinion, not really worth the time!
My score 2.5/5 (.25 for sexy hunter)

"The Lost Tribe"
"The Lost Tribe" ~ 2010
Netflix description = When their boat plows into a rock during a pleasure cruise, 5 friends swim to safety on a deserted island, only to learn they aren't alone. It turns out a race of ancient creatures calls the island home... and they've got a taste for human flesh. With odds like that, exiting the island with their lives intact will be next to impossible.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yawn! It took me several times over several days to finally watch this entire movie. What a disappointment! This was a giant snooze-fest. Often I will say that some movies are good background noise, bc they are still entertaining even if you catch just bits and pieces.... this didn't even qualify for background noise. My opinion... Dont bother!
My score 2/5
"Red Mist (Freakdog)"
"Red Mist (Freakdog)" ~ 2008
Netflix description = A young doctor decides to test an experimental drug on a man who's been languishing in a coma, and the procedure has unexpected consequences. Although the mans body remains rooted to his hospital bed, his spirit can move around at will.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What a surprising little treat! I enjoyed this movie much more than initially anticipated. The kill scenes were fairly creative and fun to watch. The story itself is also well played... right to the very end. Certainly worth the watch!
My score 3.25/5
"Airborne"
"Airborne" ~ 2012
Netflix description = After takeoff, the passengers on a plane discover that the pilots have been brutally murdered. Suddenly, the plane disappears off the radar, and one by one, the passengers turn into dangerous, bloody psychopaths.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So this was NOT the movie I was anticipating by above description. However it was a decent action/thriller. There were a few different storylines that did connect with a couple twists to keep it interesting. No gore, and the end push to try to make this a horror movie, just missed its mark. Still.... I didn't dislike it, so I give it a truly average rating.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This was a good teen scream type movie. It was almost typical bad wishes story, but enough twist to make it interesting. Also a big twist at the end is worth it. I would certainly recommend the watch!!

This was a fun, fun movie, that I personally really enjoyed. I knew as soon as I saw Sid Haig in the cast list that this creature feature was for me! This was a good story, with an even better better backstory . There is some gore and good kill scenes, also full frontal female nudity within the first minute. All in all - go watch!!

Netflix description = When alien monsters go on a murderous rampage on an Irish island, the only survivor is drunk - - because alcohol makes blood toxic to the aliens. Now, as a sober cop tries to stop the carnage, the rest of the town must get wasted in order to survive.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So information says that this is a British film, so I would definitly describe this as a British version of a made for Syfy channel movie, and I loved it! It was another huorribly wonderful creature feature. There are a few decent kill scenes but nothing gorey, and of course and entire island in Ireland having to be drunk to live, is such a play on stereotypes you cant help but be amused. Again, silly movie, but great fun and worth the watch!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I really really enjoyed this flick! It was a fun teen scream camping adventure! I loved the interaction of characters, before and after some great gory kill scenes. The entertainment continues to the very last word said. Definitely worth the watch!!

This was a good "thriller" genre of stories, but it was not a horror movie. This was a fun suspenseful movie, with lots of backstories intertwining. It did have its slow moments, but over all a good watch.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This movie was cheesetastic! All of it just seemed so silly, from the bad acting, to bad situation. The "American President's" phone call right around 26 min was so funny I went back to watch it again, and still laughed my ass off. Anyhow a few good scares, lots of zombie gore and certainly worth the watch!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This was a pretty ok movie, but its very easily forgettable. Ive now seen this a couple times, and each time the story is gone quicker than watching it was. I don't know why I can't retain it.... Anyhow again for the most part it is a good, incredibly average movie, some good scares and fun to watch.
My score 3/5 (but just barely)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm really unsure what to say about this movie. I didn't hate it. I didn't love it. It was almost painfully average, with no staying power. By that I mean, the movie is easily forgettable. All in all the classic formula for any horror movie, campy humor, some gore, some jumps and I believe gratuitous nudity. lol Again generically average so.....

Netflix description = Three friends buy a wooden box containing a ghost said to grant their every wish. Nut the seller didn't warn them of the spirits true nature. For each wish fulfilled, the entity demands a human soul in return, and the debt is mounting fast.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This was not the ghost story that I was expecting, and I must say it was a nice surprise! The story grabs your attention and holds it even before the opening credits. The storyline is good and fairly creative. The characters are likeable and of course some good kill scenes! The twist towards the end is also very well done. Basically its a good movie and you should go watch it!!

I liked the use of lighting and character development, and of course the twists and intertwining of tales. I would definitely say worth the watch!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In true "Cryptkeeper" form, this movie was fun and truly entertaining, even a couple good scares. The backstory is unique making the front story even stronger. The characters are also enough over the top that you cant help but root for some and wish some gory doom on others. Definitely worth the watch!
