Trick r Treat - 65%



Watched this in honor of Halloween on https://www.vidangel.com/

This was better than Evil Dead for sure. 

Sometimes it was difficult to understand motives. 
It was all about killing people who didn't keep the Halloween Spirit. 

There were several side stories in addition. 
What did the wolves really have to do with anything besides sex factor?...

I was hoping for a more "scary" film but ended up more violent than anything. 

Evil Dead 2013 - 40%



Watched this in honor of Halloween and because I enjoyed the originals.

It was pathetic.
They took everything that was good and entertaining about the originals and threw it away.
This was a straight up rip off of every other drug rehab in the woods goes wrong.

Spoiler: The "twist" in the end of the woman becoming the chainsaw arm icon was unfitting.

I do not recommend this movie.

Black Lagoon - 89%



One of the more edgy anime I am willing to watch.

I watched it subbed but my friend recommended the dubbed.
I watched one episode dubbed and found that there was a lot more bad language.
That being said, Once they went to New York there was plenty of bad language again.

This anime is all about character. Not much of an overarching story line.
Sometimes I couldn't tell who the main character was.. Rock or Revy.

I enjoy the whole mob aspect.

The bullets only hit when the plot needs them to.

There was some weird stuff about sibling children being in love and killing lots of people.

This is a very violent anime.

Luke Cage - 65%




The mother says, "You’d think a sister [black woman] in charge would change things, but you’re blue [a cop], which makes you just as white as anybody else!"

Luke Cage tries to reflect and embrace African American culture but instead it really only alienated it more.

In a word... This show is racist beyond measure. 
It is right up there with Quentin Tarantino's movies. 

The story wasn't half bad but it was more of the "Surprise... we are related"

Beyond Thunderdome - 35%



It started out ok but then it went off the deep end.

Acting was bad but the story was worse.

I can see why they stopped making Mad Max movies after this for a long long time.

It was so bad that I fell asleep toward the end...

Don't waste your time with this movie...
