[Rec] 4: Apocalipsis ~ 2014

[Rec] 4: Apocalipsis  ~  2014

Netflix description  =  In the final installment, TV reporter Angela is rescued and taken to an offshore ship for quarantine, but she brings with her an unwelcome stowaway.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This was a fun, fast paced movie.  Ive enjoyed the "Rec" series and was not disappointed.  This movie had the fun, fast moving story of a thriller with lots of blood and gore and jump scenes to keep it horror.  Overall I really liked it and would say definitely worth the watch!


4/5

"My Bloody Valentine" ~ 1981

"My Bloody Valentine"  ~  1981

Netflix description  =  When a group of teens defy an order not to celebrate Valentines day, a murderous maniac begins dispatching townsfolk in bloody and creative ways.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Whats not to love about classic 80s horror.  This movie had some of the oldest "teens" ever, but was a fun watch.  There is a little gore, of course no real death scenes, just the aftermath and even a couple twists.  Overall one of my personal favorites and if you like the genre its definitely worth the watch!

4/5

"Hayride 2" ~ 2015

"Hayride 2"  ~  2015

Netflix description  =  Serial killer Pitchfork awakens, determined to hunt down the survivors of his murderous rampage, as they recover in a run down hospital.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Even though this movie was extremely cliche and a mash up of several other movies, it was still a fun watch. Although fairly new it had the classic slasher, teen scream feel.  I only wish I had seen the first "Hayride" to fill in some plot holes.  Overall a good fun movie and worth the watch.

3/5

"Joyride 3: Roadkill" ~ 2014

"Joyride 3: Roadkill"  ~  2014

Netflix description  =  Deranged vigilante Rusty Nail returns to bring more terror to the roadways as he declares war on a group of unsuspecting street racers.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This was another fun chapter in the Rusty Nail story.  Per usual lots of blood and gore right out of the gate.  Also so good, creative death scenes.  Overall good movie, kinda average but worth the watch.

3/5

"The Mirror" ~ 2014

"The Mirror"  ~  2014

Netflix description  =  Police footage unveils events behind a chilling story circulating on social media about three friends who bought an allegedly haunted mirror off eBay.
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Once again I wonder if Netflix ever watched the movie to give description.  True synopsis should be:  Three friends want to win a paranormal contest so they buy a "haunted" mirror and a lot of cameras and wait to see what happens.  That said, the story ran a bit slow but it still held my attention to the end.  No gore or violent kill scenes (ok maybe one lol) but still a good creepy story that's worth the watch.


My score  3/5

"The Seasoning House" ~ 2012

"The Seasoning House"  ~  2012

Netflix description  =  Angel, a deaf and mute orphan, is enslaved to care for the girls of the seasoning house, who a forcefully prostituted to the military.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This was a very intense story.  The character development is strong, making you invested in Angel.  There is lots of blood, gore and mostly brutal violence.  Although almost more horrific than horror its definitely worth the watch.

My score  4/5

"Altar" ~ 2014

"Altar"  ~  2014

Netflix description  =  A family moves into a dilapidated old mansion and while restoring it, they inadvertantly awaken ghosts and unearth their homes haunting secret.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 This movie has a slow start but as it continues it got pretty good.  Not any gore, but a lot of jump scares and shadow play.  Overall ignore the cliches and sit to the end... its worth it.


My score  3/5
