"Starry Eyes" ~ 2014

"Starry Eyes"  ~  2014

Netflix description  =  Aspiring actress Sarah Walker lands a leading role in a movie.  As production gets underway, she finds the price of stardom may be her very soul. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This movie had a very old "feel" to it.  However it still held my attention to the end.  It had no gore, or really good death scenes, but just an always present creepiness factor.  Overall I would say an okay watch, just truly average.


My score  3/5

"Open Water 2: Adrift" ~ 2006

"Open Water 2: Adrift"  ~  2006

Netflix description  =  Old high school friends set sail on a yacht for a party cruise weekend that turns into their worst nightmare in this thriller based on true events.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While this was not the "thriller" I was anticipating, it was still a fun watch of a party gone terribly wrong.  Not a lot of plot twists or big scares, bat a strong storyline that held my attention.  Worth the watch!

My score  3/5

"The Quiet Ones" ~ 2014

"The Quiet Ones"  ~  2014


Netflix description  =  In this shocking tale based on true events, charismatic professor Coupland and a few of his brightest students set out to summon a poltergeist.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So yet again Netflix description was way off.  Sorry guys, no poltergeist.  However the movie itself was good.  The main plot is a crazy Dr. and friends meet a possessed girl and try to cure her.  The beginning of this movie is slow but worth watching for a final twist at the end.


My score   3/5

"The Houses October Built" ~ 2014

"The Houses October Built"  ~  2014

Netflix description  =  Five friends hit the road to find the best gimmicky Halloween haunted house, but soon a terrifyingly real evil begins to hound their steps.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While this movie had countless plot holes and periods of mass confusion, I still couldn't turn away.  The general premise is a great idea, and I enjoyed the charactor development.  Some gore but mostly creepy storytelling.  Overall and ok movie and a fun watch.


My score   3/5
