Devil Movie Reviews, Pictures - Rotten Tomatoes

Poor Shyamalan. It seems Devil Movie Reviews, Pictures - Rotten Tomatoes continues his streak of bad movies. Not going to do my own review at this time because I don't feel like wasting my money. Ok, technically he just wrote the story, but still.....

Malice in Wonderland

What's more bizarre and surreal then Alice In Wonderland?  Malice in Wonderland, of course!  In this flick, Alice is hit by a Taxi driver named Whitey at the start. I can dig it. In Wonderland, the rabbit (Whitey get it?) is a device to get Alice into Wonderland as well, so it makes sense.  Only this time Wonderland is populated by the strangest gangsters you'll see. The person you think is the Red Queen isn't, instead at Alice's "trial", you get the Red Mafia Boss.  Yeah...
Maggie Grace gives a good and credible performance but Danny Dyer has the best  performance and lines in the movie by far.
The movie isn't bad, but it has a major problem. The characters are fanastic (most of them anyway). The visuals are striking and trippy. Sounds good, so far right? The problem is that the plot under-performs and becomes a jumbled mess at times. The film more driven by its outlandish characters to have reached its full potential.
I don't have a star system, so I'd say I'd have to give it about it about three homosexual flamingoes out of a possible five.

Subspecies 2 Bloodstone

Yes, I'm back! This time I'm reviewing Subspecies 2: Bloodstone. What comes to my mind is this movie, finally a vampire that isn't a weepy little cry baby like Twilight * Instead, Radu is a bad-ass, evil Nosferatu type vampire that is not a masturbation fantasy for teen-age girls. In fact, Radu kills sensitive "good" vampire from from the first movie in this series early on. The plot is simply and enjoyable. Radu's  fledgling Michelle steals a holy vampire artifact from Radu and his Mummy, and Radu chases Michelle through lush Romanian landscapes.

The film does sag a little in middle, with some slow parts that weren't really necessary, such as Michelle's sister, her boyfriend and professor breaking into Radu's castle only to leave when they're told to.

The characters are sympathetic and believable. Radu does have love in his own twisted and perverse way, while still being wonderfully over the top. Michelle's reaction to her first kill is believable.

Overall, great blast from the past from before vampires went politically correct and "sensitive" and from long before anyone decided vampires should be "vegetarians"




*Yeah, I know linked to Twilight, while calling its characters crybabies, but gotta make money somehow, right?

A full bodied parakeet barked

A strange sentence, I'd admit, but apparently a full bodied parakeet barked.
