In A Violent Nature Film Review

When people say that there are no original films being made in Hollywood anymore alot of the time there just looking at the films that all of the big studios are releasing. With them not even paying attention to what the smaller known studios are releasing because if they did they will see that there are plenty of original films being made not only in general but also in the world of horror case in point that the film that i'm going to be talking to you all about today as this film whilst it might look like a typical slasher film it actually does things that are new and different with the formular and so then join me as I review the film that has as many walking scenes as The Lord Of The Rings trilogy with the film in question being called simply just "In A Violent Nature" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when his grave is disturbed when someone takes a necklace that belonged to his mother an undead monster named Johnny raises from the grave bent on getting it back. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with the plot of the film being one that's really creative as while yes it could be argued that this films plot is the plot of the stereotypical slasher film it does something new and different by basically having two vastly different films going on at the same time as from the point of view of the teens this film comes across as being a typical slasher film and yet from the point of view of Johnny it comes across as being a revenge film with the films plot being one that could also be seen as being nothing more typical slasher film plot with it's out doors setting being something that was done to keep the costs down the plot doesn't feel like it's being held back by that as the plot still works within those limitations and while yes the plot of the film could be seen as being a bit boring at times as the film does show us Johnny walking to each and every kill that he makes for long periods of time this is something that does help to sell you on the general idea of the film as whole as it would have been very easy to have Johnny just show up where the kids are alot of the time and yet by not doing that it allows us to breathe in this world and it allows the films plot alot more time to breathe as well with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is Ry Barrett as Johnny , Andrea Pavlovic as Kris , Cameron Love as Colt and Reece Presley as The Ranger. Also starring in this film is Liam Leone as Troy , So Much Tenderness star Charlotte Creaghan as Aurora , Lea Rose Sebastianis as Brodie , Sam Roulston as Ehren , Alexander Oliver as Evan , Timothy Paul McCarthy as Chuck and Friday The 13th Part 2 star Lauren-Marie Taylor as The Woman.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With the fact that this films acting being as good as it is being something that was quite shocking as not only are all of this films actors a bunch of unknown actors and therefor it would have been foolish to expect even a good performance from them in the first place but the film that we got was actually a reshot version of the film with mostly different actors with this films actors doing a really good job acting in this film which is something that would have been hard to do given the unique premise and idea of the film itself and yet they all pull it off turning in some really good performances in the process with the best actor in the whole entire film being a tie between Ry Barrett as he has to get across alot of emotion and feeling without having his face be seen on camera as Johnny and Charlotte Creaghan who was just delightful to watch as the socially conscious member of the group with her turning in a performance that does make what could have been seen as being a really unlikable character somehow seem all the more likable because of it with the same thing also being true for Ry Barrett as well with the acting that's in this film really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so good that all this films actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

On paper this films main characters do seem like the kind of teenage characters that you expect to see in an eighties slasher film like for example any of the Friday The 13th movies for example. This is something that is kind of the point with there characters as from there point of view they are living through this stereotypical slasher film and therefor they aren't going to be the best done characters and while that might be the point with there characters this is still a major flaw in the film as it also makes them less interesting as characters the badly done characters in eighties slasher films work so well those films were meant to be enjoyed and then forgotten about rather quickly hence why alot of them had the exact same set up and the exact same characters whereas with this film the idea is different enough that you do need new kid characters to help grow that idea and help make the scenes where Johnny is slowly walking to his next kill seem less long and less boring and yet the makers of this film don't really do that and heck we don't even get to find out anything about any of the films main characters outside of Johnny who we are told is someone that died over seventy years ago and that only comes back once a necklace is removed from his grave with him only being killed as he was pushed out of a tree by some people who wanted to get back at his dad which granted is a rather generic origin story for this character but it's more then what we get for the films other characters which is something that does make alot of sense as the only time we see the teens is when Johnny is seeing them but it still would have been nice to find out quite literally anything about them as that is something that would have helped us get to like them as characters.

Alot of slasher films more often then not say that there going to put you in the shoes of the killer and yet none of them do. Well this film is quite literally built around that entire concept and while this might not change the way that horror films are done much like how the original Scream did for slasher films in the nineties it was still nice to see a refreshing change to the slasher genre as it would have been super easy for the makers of this film to just do another slasher film and leave it at that but it's the fact that they didn't do that and instead chose to create something that no one has seen before or since this film that makes this film stand out all the more because of it and while yes this film does prove that there some kinks to be worked out with doing an entire film from the point of view of the killer it also proves that it could be done as well and yet for one reason or another both big and small studios have refused to further look into this idea as it is something that could be done very cheaply as you wouldn't need that many actors in the film in the first lace and if you keep the film in a more filmable location like a city for example then you can hire locally and maybe even call in favors from friends and relatives something which the makers of this film found out the hard way as this film is actually a reshot version as the first attempt to make this film went badly due to them being very ill pre-pared for what it would be like to film in the wilderness amongst many other things and yet the fact that they then after seeing the footage decided to reshoot the whole thing with the films writer and director Chris Nash even putting in his own money to help with the funding does prove that you can do a film like this and do it well if you have the right crew to help to make it come true in the first place.

While this film does get alot of brownie points for being a somewhat original film where it does suffer tho is the fact that for large portions of this film nothing really happens at all. With this being due to the fact that we are following the main killer of the film for alot of the films running time and there's only so long that that can be interesting and be new before it starts to get old and tired which in this film is something that does start to happen quite quickly with this being something it would have been quite handy for the makers of this film to give some screen time to the main hero characters as then it would only not give us anther POV for the film but it would also stop the film from feeling like a chore to watch alot of the time and while yes the point of the film is to quite literally put us in the shoes of the main killer those shoes could have been a bit more exciting as we don't need to see him walk to all of his kills all of the time and while this film is quite clearly taking inspiration from slashers like Friday The 13th and Halloween with it's approach to it's kills both of this film at the very least built up tension so that you actually feel something when a character is killed where as here you are left feeling nothing because of the fact that the makers of this film don't give you a reason to care for any of the films main hero characters infact you end up caring for Johnny the main villain of the film then you do the films teenagers when it would have worked all the more better if we had the same quieter moments that we get with Johnny but with the films hero characters as then not only would the film be alot less of a chore to watch but it also go quite along way in making the films hero characters alot more likable and memorable then what they already are in the first place.

One of the faults that alot of people have with this film is the fact that there are more scenes with Johnny walking then there are in the entire The Lord Of The Rings it seems. Which is something that is understandable as it does get very boring seeing him to walk to each kill and heck the opening five minuets of the film are sent with him just trying to claw his way out of the ground before going on a long walk to his kill but at the same time given that this film is meant to be inspired by early slasher films before the killers could just appear out of thin air it is interesting seeing him get himself into position for all of this film kills as usually films will just cut to the kill with there being very little to know build up to it and yet that's exactly what we get in this film and while the film doesn't give us any kind of tension building at all with t being more focused on showing us how Johnny got to the ranger station for example then it is in giving us some really good tension just the idea alone of showing us how this seemingly unstoppable person got himself into position to kill this one person is something that could be argued is building up tension as the audience know that Johnny is there but the characters don't much like how we know that Michael Myers is on the other side of the glass behind Nancy but she doesn't notice him with the only real difference being here there's no music to clue us in on him being there which is something that makes sense as we're following him for alot of the film but it still would have helped the film if the makers of this film cut down on the amount of shots of him just walking to his next kill as that would have made the film a lot more entertaining to watch and not be that much of a chore to watch.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty three minuets and fifty two seconds. Which for a film like this is pretty much the exact grand total running that you'd expect this film to have with this film having the right amount of plot to fully cover tat amount of running time in the first place but in saying this tho this film doesn't really use it's running time all that wisely as the film doesn't take the time that it has to fully develop it's plot as the film is alot more focused in showing us how Johnny gets to his kills then in further developing it's plot something which it very easily could have die just by cutting down on the scenes of Johnny walking to his next kill as that's not something that we need to see all of the time and while that is part of what makes the film feel unique it's also something that dies make the film feel more boring as well with this even effecting the films character development as none of the films teens get the chance to get across just what it is that makes them tick which granted is true for alot of other slasher films as well so its not really something that's unique to this film however this film could have taken steps to fix it just by having one or two scenes where the characters get the chance to develop there character and get across just what it is that makes them tick much like what the film really does do with the origin of Johnny and by showing Johnny playing with a toy car something is something that makes him feel more human then the films hero characters are but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a slasher film that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With all of this films kills being the best aspect of the film with it being made clear that the makers of this film put alot more thought and effort into this films kills then they did anything else as it's in this films kills where the film really does shine with the film having alot of really good looking gore and practical effects in the film all of which are things that work really well in this film and while this films kills aren't as gory as the kills are in say Terrifier 2 are for example we do get alot of really gory kills in this film with the the best kill in the film being when Johnny punches a whole right in the middle of Auroras chest and then he uses his hook to to pull her head backwards through the hole and out clean the other side with that kill being a good example of just how gory that this films kills could be with it being something that does make the film feel unique with the film having alot of over the top gory kills like with Johnny using the log splitter to cut off both the park rangers hand and head in a really tense and gory scene or when Johnny hits a character over NINETY times in the face with an axe with that kill being a good example pf the makers of the film not really pulling any punches and not really holding back as alot of other slasher films just would have shown the character getting hit once maybe twice but that's it but here the makers of the film go over board with that kill with all of the films kills being just as over the top gory as you'd want them to be in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall it's no wonder that this film currently has a sequel on the way as this film is just so good this is despite the fact that the film does have alot of flaws to it that could be seen as holding them film back from being as good as it really wants to be but if the makers of the film have learnt there lesson then the sequel could be just as good if not better then what this film really is in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad thing that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly an 8 out of 10 from me.

Now then as or where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.

Weapons Film Review

2025 really was a good year for horror with there being quite alot of original horror films films coming out and while yes we did still get the odd sequel or remake we mostly got original horror films last. Heck even two of those horror films have now been nominated for OSCAR's with Sinners being nominated for sixteen awards and while the film that i'm going to be talking to you all about today has only been nominated for the one it's the fact that we alot more horror films being nominated for OSCAR's in the first place that is something to always applaud and so then join me as I review the film that is now officially a prestige horror film with the film in question being called simply just "Weapons" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when all but one kid in her entire class goes missing a school teacher and a parent find themselves in the crosshairs of something really more evil then what either of them first thought. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with the films plot being one that is wholly original as unlike Sinner which borrowed elements of it's plot from the film From Dusk Till Dawn here everything in regards to the plot of the film is unique to this film with the films plot being told in the same way that it was told in The Hateful Eight where it's told in chapters only here we get to find out that all of the characters that we are meeting are all telling different parts of the same story with this being something that does help to make what could have been seen as a being a small time plot seem all the more bigger as now we get to see how it affects alot of the films characters with the film giving it's plot alot of focus all of which does go quite along way into making this films plot be all the more better then what it really should have been and while films like Sinners and even Good Boy for example might have the better plots it' this film and it's plot that is the more interesting to see as you never really know what's going to happen next with the plot of the film being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is one of this film executive producers Josh Brolin as Archer Graff and Julia Garner as Justine Gandy. Also starring in this film is Alden Ehrenreich as Paul Morgan , Austin Abrams as James , Cary Christopher as Alex Lilly , Toby Huss as Ed Locke , Benedict Wong as Marcus Miller , Sara Paxton as Erica , Justin Long as Gary , June Diane Raphael as Donna Morgan , Whitmer Thomas as Alex's Father , Callie Schuttera as Alex's Mother , Luke Speakman as Matthew Graff , Clayton Farris as Terry Miller , Scarlett Sher as The Child Narrator and Amy Madigan as Gladys.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With this films acting being alot more better then what it really had any right to be as quite alot of this films actors aren't big named actors and therefor it would have been foolish to expect good or even great performance from them and yet all of this films actors really do knock it out of the park performance wise with it being made clear as day that the makers of this film really did cast all of these characters really well as it is hard to picture anyone else playing these roles as it just makes to much sense for them to be played by these actors with the best actor in the film being a tie between Julia Garner , Josh Brolin and Amy Madigan as all three actors are just so good in this film with Amy being really creepy as the unassuming Gladys , Josh being really heartbreaking as a father who just wants to see his son again and Julia being really good as Justine who really gets all of the blame for all but one of her students going missing and she has to somehow really hide the fact that really is broken on the inside with that being something that really both she and Josh Brolin do really well with the acting that's in this film really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so good that all this films actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

Doing the CGI for this film is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Ingenuity Studios , Big Flick Rentals and The-Artery. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual CGI thats actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with the films CGI mainly being used on the scene where the kids crash through several houses at the end of the film as for obvious reason your not going to have real kids doing something like that for real and to be fair to this film you really can't tell that it's CGI as it does look real with the rest f the films CGI mainly being used to extended the sets and that's really it and that's greats as that's how CGI should be used as there only fixing things that they couldn't help with on the day of filming and to do things that you for obvious reasons don't want to be doing with a child actor with the film making great use of mostly practical effects as while there is some amount of CGI done to characters faces when they become rage machines and start attacking whomever Gladys tells them to which even then it's done because of the fact that not alot of people can have there eyes come out like they do in this film and therefor the only way to do something like would be to have level of CGI on it to make it look good in the first place and while it would have been super easy for the makers of this film to go really over board with the CGI the fact that there is a strong focus on practical effects over CGI effects with the two blending together really well does show us that you can have a modern film without having a ton of CGI in it.

People always say that there are no original stories being told anymore and that all we get is sequels , reboots and remakes. Whilst that is true for the bigger studios if you look more deeper and look at what's coming out independently you'll notice that horror films in particular have been churning out original films for a long time and just because because there not mainstream films that win all of the awards doesn't mean there not there just look at films like Good Boy and Late Night With The Devil as prime examples of that as neither film was made by a major studio and neither film is that well known to the mainstream audience and yet they both managed to find an audience that really connected with them and while yes mainstream horror films like for example Scream 7 and to a lesser degree any of the horror films released by Platinum Dunes are all either sequels or remakes that doesn't mean that there aren't original films out there heck even the film that alot of people where hoarding as being an original film in Sinners technically isn't an original film as that film largely borrows it's plot from From Dusk Till Dawn and yet it got called an original film where as Good Boy and Late Night With The Devil that actually are original films went unnoticed all because of the fact that there not released by a major studio and while this film is both released by a big studio that being Warner Bros through there New Line Cinema line it is still an original film and it's one that does deserve as much love and attention as Sinners got for being an actual original film that did really well at the box office and yet for one reason or another not alot of people were talking about this film when it first came out.

One of the things that really doesn't work all that much in this film is the fact that it tells it's story essentially in chapters. As while this is a good idea it is something that does harm the flow of the story and the film mystery aspect as well as the film will just get going again when it suddenly cuts to black and starts up all over again with a new POV character which is fair enough as it does give us the audience a reason to keep on watching the film but at the same time tho it also makes this film feel alot more like a TV and alot less like a movie with those cuts to black essentially being the end of an episode with it affecting the mystery as the film only gives us clues as to what really is going on when the film focuses on three characters those being Alex , Justine and Archer and that's really it and even then those characters have there stores spread quite far apart with the film not really bothering to give us much more of a clue during all of the characters stories which is something that would be fine if this wasn't a mystery film and yet because it is a mystery film that does mean that they have to give us clues in order for us the audience to work out for ourselfs just what really is going on with this something that could have been fixed if the film just cut down on the alot of the pointless character stories as we don't need to see what James , Paul and Marcus were doing as there stories don't have that much impact on the films main story and yet because of the fact that the film does have all of those stories being told which don't get me wrong does lead to some really good scenes it does mean that small things like the lack of a good mystery do have to get sacrificed.

One thing that both does and doesn't work is the relationship between Justine and Archer it works in the respect that they are the only adults in this possibly small town actively looking for these kids and therefor they team up with each other to help each other out. However it doesn't work in the respect that Archer at the start of the film was openly accusing Justine of possibly kidnapping the kids one of which included his own son with there not really being a moment in the film where the both of them realized that how they've been acting all through out the film was more hurting there cause and not really helping it with this being something that very easily could have been fixed either with a line of dialog or a look from Archer after he's just saved Justine from being killed off by Marcus as then he would have seen for himself that the things that she's been saying to him and the whole town for that matter was the truth and therefor he would want to help her and she would need his helps as he knows what general direction the kids were all running in the morning they all disappeared yes it is a small issue grated but it's a small issue that does effect the film in a big way as the film rests on us the audience buying into the fact that they would help each other out and yet without a scene in the film were the characters acknowledge either that they need help or that they were in the wrong for treating the other person so badly in the first place it is something that makes there relationship come across as being forced and not something that these two characters would possibly do in the first place and yet if the makers of this film did remove the chapter aspect of the film then it would have allowed for a moment like that to happen in the first place.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly two hours and eight minuets and twenty nine seconds. Which for a horror film is a tad bit on the long side but in saying this tho this is a film that really does need that long of a running time in order to properly tell it's story and do justice to it's plot as if you made this film even five or ten minuets shorter then you would run the risk of doing alot of harm to the film plot with this film having more then plot there to really over that amount of running time in the first place and yet this film really doesn't use it's running time all that wisely as this film doesn't take the time to fully develop it's plot something which it can't do due to the more episodic nature of the films plot and while yes there is a main plot of the film going on the film can't develop it as just when the plot really gets going again it cuts to a different POV character and therefor has to start all over again and while this doesn't really effect te films character development all that much as the characters that you want to see get more developed as characters do get their time to shine but the film still doesn't fully develop it's characters as while the film does develop Justine and Archer it doesn't develop the rest of it's characters with characters like Alex and Gladys for example coming across as being very one note and one dimensional characters which would be fine if they were just side characters but there not there meant to be main characters and while the film does have an in story reason for us not finding out all that much about Gladys as she gets introduced late into the film with Alex tho there's not really an excuse as the film does revolve around him and yet we don't really get to find out all that much about him as a character but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho. 

So now then as this is a horror film that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With it being made clear as day that the makers of this film out alot of thought and effort into giving us some really memorable kills as even tho there aren't that many kills in the film the few that there are stand out all the more due to how impactful that they are and how well done that they are as well and while Gladys isn't that well developed as a villain just due to how late into the story that she's introduced it's her death that's the best kill in the whole entire as we get to see get chased through several houses and down the street before getting tackled to the ground where she is then dismembered by all seventeen kids that she had bewitched with her death being the most gory death in the whole film with it being made obvious that the makers of this film knew that we would want to see a good death for her character as they go out of there way to give us exactly that and while the film does have plenty of other gory moments like Justine slicing of a part of Paul's face during the third act or even Marcus headbutting his husband to death it's the death of Gladys that works all the more due to the fact that she is this really evil person with the film having some really good deaths in it as well all of which do make this film to be even more creepy then what it rally should have been in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall whilst yes Sinners is the more better film and totally deserves all of the nominations that it got that doesn't mean that this film should be forgotten about even more so when it's been OSCAR nominated as well as this is a film that really does deserves all of the praise that it got and then some in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple Film Review

Sequels are all the range in Hollywood these days with Hollywood bust churning out sequel after sequel. Yet what alot of those sequels have in common is the fact that we the audience know about them before hand the same thing cannot be said for this film as this film was filmed in secret along with 28 Years Later and well as I reviewed that film when it first came out it makes sense that I now review this one and so then join me as I review the film that has a group of characters all with the same name with the film in question being called simply just "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when he falls in with a gang of people all called Jimmy Spike has to find away to get himself out of trouble before it's far to late. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with this films plot not only picking up where the previous film left of but doing so in a way that feels natural and organic with this films plot being one that is something that could apply to real life as well as little kids do find themselves joining gangs and so find themselves in similar situations that Spike in this film finds himself in as well and yet it's not that plot of the film that's the most interesting rather it's the plot with Dr Ian Kelson that's the more interesting plot as he forms somewhat of a friendship with a member of the infected and has to do whatever it takes to keep his friend safe which is a far more interesting as it does show that both infected and uninfected alike can co-exist with Spikes plot being the more duller of the two plots as you know right away where this plot is going and yeah it goes to those exact same places in that exact same order which is something that does make that plot feel more predictable where as the the plot with Dr. Ian Kelson isn't that predictable as his story is one that hasn't been done before now with the overall plot of the film being more weaker when compared to the plot of the previous film with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Starring in this film is Ralph Fiennes as Dr Ian Kelson , Alfie Williams as Spike and Erin Kellyman as Jimmy Ink / Kelli.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With all of this films actors turning in some really good performances something which does make alot of sense as alot of this films actors are not only a bunch of really good actors in their own right but are also reprising their roles from the previous film which does mean that they would have a much more better grip on their characters and would know how best to perform there respective characters with the same thing even being true for Jack O'Connell who only appeared in what is basically a cameo role in the previous film here feels like that he's been playing the character for a long time as he just slips into character perfectly with him even being the films best actor as while alot of the other actors in this film had that previous film to start to get a handle on just who there characters are he really only had this film and yet he turns in such a good performance in this film with his character being one that was really well cast something which could also be said for all of this films characters but with Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal it's even more true as Jack is given permission to go as over the top with the character as he deems fit something which he does take great pride in doing in this film with the acting that's in this film really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so goo that all this films actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

Like with the previous film this films characters aren't that well done and while the previous film had the excuse of it was setting up things for this film this film really doesn't have that going for it. With this films characters being at best dull characters that don't have alot going for them and at worst just straight up forgettable which is sadly the case for lot of Jimmy's gang as alot of them don't have anything about them that makes them standout and sadly the only decently down characters are the characters that are returning from the previous film and even then you could argue that those characters are only good because of the fact that that film did alot of the heavy lifting for them as this film really doesn't do anything for it's characters as it doesn't expand upon what was set up in the previous film and instead just makes them feel like an afterthought with the only somewhat interesting character Jimmy Crystal and that's really it and even then that's more due to the fact that he's insane and therefor you have no idea of what it is that he's going to do next which is something that does feel true to his character with even Ian feeling a bit of a let down character wise as he was set up really well in the previous film as being someone who many believed to have gone insane something which he did somewhat live up to in that film and yet in this film we don't get to see that aspect of his character heck we don't even get to see him act like an actual doctor in this film with him instead spending alot of time with Samson and that's really it when the makers of this film could have done so much more with this character as they could have had him act as the moral compass for the film something which would put him in direct contention with Jimmy and would naturally make the two of them enemies and yet none of that happens in this film.

In what could be seen as being an odd move this film was actually filmed pretty much back to back with the previous film. With it not really being known that this film was even a thing until AFTER filming had ended with this film doing what they did in Avengers: Endgame where they had characters that played a bigger role in Avengers: Infinity War not get as much if any screen time in Endgame and it's same thing here as characters that got alot of screen time in the previous film like Spikes dad for example get very little to know screen time in this film with this being something that does work well enough to this films advantage as it does make the story of both of these films feel alot more bigger a even tho this kind of approach is usually done for a practical reason when it's done right it does also allow for the story to feel alot more bigger and for the world of the film to feel alot more bigger as here even tho we don't get to see the characters that we saw in the previous film we do still get a continuation of there journey and of there struggles and yet if this film was done in the more traditional sense then that might be something that could have been lost as then you'd have to contend with actors growing older which is something that is fine for alot of the more adult characters but for characters like Spike it wouldn't have worked as his story works best because of the fact that he is a kid who is just struggling to find himself in the world and that kind of story would only have worked if this film was done in the way that it was done and the fact that they managed to keep the whole film a secret is wonder to behold in it's own right.

Without giving away a single thing about what happens at the end of this film there is something that happens right at the very end of the film that does confirm that people that fans thought might get together did infact get together. This was something that was a bit of a shock as while it was all but confirmed that this person would be returning in this film it was never said how and the fact that he was kept out of all of the marketing for the film was a great thing as it does make his inclusion in the film to be all the more surprising but given the fact that right now he is only in talks to appear in the third film whenever that film gets made then there is a chance that this films ending might get dropped which is a shame as the idea of this character having a kid is a good idea and it's one that could only work if he appears in the third film as realistically you wouldn't have the kid go out on there own without the father being there as you'd have to set up why they left there home in the first place but given that this franchise is usually really good with it's endings and actually following through on them this does seem like something that well get followed up in the third and final film of this mini trilogy but given that this film isn't doing the numbers that the studio want even when compared to the previous film with this being more due to the fact that this film came out less then a year after the previous film did and had little to know build up to it's release it does seem fairly unlikely that we'll be getting that third film but given that they are still talking about making it happen is a positive sign and hopefully that third film will be made as the story being told across these films with Spike is one that is genuinely quite interesting to watch. 

As you all no doubt know Jimmy and his gang called The Fingers are all styled after offender Sir Jimmy Savile. I wont say what he got in trouble for as it's far to disgusting even for me to say but nonetheless making someone dressed like him be the main villain of the film is something that does make alot of sense as the audience is going to be taking one look at how this character is dressed and if your in England your going to be booing him anyway and to the films credit Jimmy Crystal does come across as being a good villain as he's one that does his charm to make you want to join his gang and that makes you want to appease him by killing whomever he tells you to and while he has no end goal in mind which is something that would be seen as being a bit of bad thing here it is something that does work as this character is meant to be insane and so of course he's going to believe that what he's doing is right and that he's in the right all of the time and that does mean that he won't have an end goal in mind and while having characters that are insane and have an end goal could work heck just look at characters like The Joker and Freddy Krueger as prime examples of that it's not really something that's needed especially when the character much like the person he's based off of is charming and those types of characters don't usually need an end goal to make you hate them as they do that just by making you want to do all of these things in the first place and while yes it would have helped if Jimmy did have an end goal like maybe he wants more members to join his gang and the only way that he can think of to do that is to kill people yeah that's a bad plan but it's at the very least something but this character works just as well without having an end goal in mind.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and forty three minuets and fifty nine seconds. Which is a bit of long time for a zombie themed horror film to last but given that this film focuses more on the humans then it does zombies it does somewhat make sense for the film to be this long with the film having more then enough plot there to cover that amount of running time in the first place yet this film really doesn't use it's running time all that wisely as the film doesn't take the time that it has to fully develop it's plot with the film instead beg more focused on giving us pointless scenes with Ian and Samson which fair enough is great for there little plot in the film but it adds nothing to the overall plot of the film as that is sadly Spike's plot and that is something that could have used alot more screen time to get the development that it really did need and while it could be argued that alot of the characters got there character development in the previous film which would be a fair enough case to make it still would have been nice if we got to see alot of the characters that got alot more screen time in this film get there character development and yet even tho Ian and Jimmy have a fantastic scene together near the end of the film it's not something that reveals more about who Jimmy is as a character when is something that should have been the case due to the fact that he's the films main villain and yet we know just as much about him at the end of the film then we did coming into the film when if the film took the time to delve more into him as a character it would have made him be even more unlikable then what he already is but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a horror film that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt tat the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. While this film doesn't really focus all that much on the horror aspect of the film as it does come across more as being a psychological thriller then it does a straight up zombie film its when the film does focus on being a zombie film that we get to see some really good moments in the film case in point the films best kill which happens right at the start of the film where we see a rage filled Samson rip off another dudes head and pulls out his spleen which was something he did all the time in the previous film an it's something that's still effective in this film and while the film doesn't focus that much on the zombies the humans themselves actually get alot of really good kills themselves with all of this films kills being as gory as you'd want them to be which is something that does make those kills look really good but in saying this tho the humans kills just aren't that good as there's only so much that they can do with the human characters and sadly that does mean that we can't that many good or even creative kills from them and yet with Samson due to the fact that he's a zombie it does mean that we get alot more creative kills from him which is something that he does take somewhat full advantage of in this film as even tho he only gets one kill in the film it is still a really good kill that does show you that the makers of this film knew how to come up with alot of really creative kills in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Overall while this film does have the potential too be a really good film it's bogged down by the fact that the main plot just isn't that interesting and the fact that this zombie movie doesn't actually focus on the zombies something which the previous film did do really well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all o the good and a well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as sch that really does mean that tis very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 6 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.

Sinners Film Review

To say that last year was a good year for horror film would be a huge understatement as we got alot of really good and sometimes even great horror films last year. With the film that i'm going to talking to you all about today being one of my favorite films of the year not just in the world of horror but just in general as it was just that good in the first place and while some people might say that this film was over hyped i'd argue differently then that as there are more films that hot more hype then this film did just look at K-Pop Demon Hunters as proof of that and then join me as I review the film that is basically just a remake of From Dusk Till Dawn with the film in question being called simply just "Sinners" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when two identical twin brothers open up a Juke Joint on opening night they really have to fend for there lives when the place and it's patrons really are attacked and turned into vampires. Now then  interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with the plot of this film not really being fresh in a certain sense as it does copy the idea of From Dusk Till Dawn but it is original in the way that it tells that same idea as here the whole film is told from the point of view of African Americans in the early 1930's which is something that does open itself up to alot of story potential which to be fair to this film is something that the film does take full advantage by having several other stories all take place as well and by having alot of the characters deal with the kind of racism that is still around to this very day and that is something that does help to make to make this film repeated plot line seem new and original again with the thing that lets the films plot down also being one of the biggest strengths that being the fact that the film does spend a whopping forty minuets just on having the brothers set up the place and hire all of the staff and that's it which is something that could be seen as being dull and boring as nothing new is added to the plot but it also works as it sets up all of the key characters in the film as well with the plot of this film being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring inn this film is Michael B. Jordan as Elijah "Smoke" Moore and Elias "Stack" Moore and Miles Caton as Samuel "Sammie" Moore. Also starring in this film is Wunmi Mosaku as Annie , Jayme Lawson as Pearline , Omar Benson Miller as Cornbread , Delroy Lindo as Delta Slim , Peter Dreimanis as Bert , Lola Kirke as Joan , Li Jun Li as Grace Chow , Saul Williams as Jedidiah Moore , Yao as Bo Chow , David Maldonado as Hogwood , Helena Hu as Lisa Chow , Andrene Ward-Hammond as Ruthie , Nathaniel Arcand as Chayton , Emonie Ellison as Therise , Hailee Steinfeld as Mary and Jack O'Connell as Remmick.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With the fact that this films acting being so good not really being something that's all that surprising as alot of this films actors are a bunch of really good actors in their own right and even alot of the films more lesser known actors turn out good because of the fact that there acting opposite some really good actors with the fact that this films acting is so good being helped by the fact that this films writer , producer and director Ryan Coogler really does know how to get a good performance out of all of his actors a skill that he has shown of in all of his movies and pulls of again here in this film as all of this films actors are just simply a joy to watch in this film with the films best actor being none other then Michael B. Jordan as he has to play two completely different characters in the same scene as each other and yet make both characters feel completely different from each other something that would have been a hard enough task for any actor to do and yet he pulls it off tremendously with Smoke really being the more careful one of the two who is always quick to fire his gun where as Stack is the more lighthearted easy going one who would rather charm you then shoot you with the acting that's in this film really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so good that all this films actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

Doing the CGI for this film is Storm Studios , Rising Sun Pictures , Industrial Light & Magic , Base FX , Outpost VFX , Light VFX and Baraboom! Studios. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with the film not really having that much VFX in it and yet what little VFX are in this film work so well as it's blended in with the films live action effects with really the only VFX shot in the whole film being the flames that engulf the vampires at the end of the film and that's really it as nine times out of ten VFX is only used to extend things that were on the day or in the case of Michael B. Jordan make it look like that he's talking to himself when in actuality he's talking to a body double which is a really convincing effect as it is something that does make you wonder how they managed to pull of the shots with both of the twins in the same shot and yet it's something that does work really well in the context of the film as this is how VFX should be used as all there doing is enhancing what was already there on the day of filming and that's really it and that is something that will all of this films VFX age alot more slowly as it is hard to tell what it is they did for real and what was done inside of a computer outside of the fact that they light the vampires on hire as your obviously not going to light a real human actor on fire but even then the effect is so convincing that it does end up working really well in the film.

When this film came out it got alot of praise for being original and while yes granted there are some original elements in this film one of those elements is sadly not the films plot. As you can tell right from when the vampires first enter the film that this film is going to be nothing more then a redo version of From Dusk Till Dawn and yeah it plays out in the exact same way that that film played out and heck even both films have alot of the films action take place in a bar with the only difference being that this film uses mostly African Americans and that's really it and heck even both films have one of the brothers get turned into a vampire fortunately people have started to catch on that this is another version of another movie but it is something that makes you wonder why the makers of this film tried to borrow elements from that film and then pass it off as there own idea and heck even several reviews on the films DVD call this film an original idea and while yes the film does have alot of original ideas in it that's fair enough but the central idea for the film was one that was already done in the mid nineties and yet movie critics both in America and over her in the UK are trying to pass this film of as an original idea now granted this is Ryan Cooglers first original film as alot of the films that he's directed and wrote the script for are based off of pre-existing IP's but even this film can't be called fully original as it's just not granted he might he might have been inspired from From Dusk Till Dawn and wanted to tip his hat to that film in which case fair enough but there's tipping your hat then there's outright copying it and this is something that this film just barely does.

There's no way to get around this as one of the films central themes is racism which given when this film takes place in is something that does make sense. As we see not only the brothers but also Grace and her family expirence it as well and it is something that should be talked about due to the fact that all of the vampire characters at first are not only all white people but some of them are even members of the KKK that actively abuse both of the brothers with this theme being handled alot more subtly then what you might thing it would as he film doesn't outright say that this is what there talking about rather they'll have just a few characters say something to one one of the other characters and that's it with the rest of it being told through visual storytelling which is something that does make this arguably more effective but to be fair to this film tho it is something that really wasn't needed in this film as while yes back then people were alot more openly racist to people we go to the movies to escape real life issues and while yes people have the right to talk about whatever it is that they want to talk about in their own movies it is something that should be down with caution as this is something that very easily could come across as being very heavy handed with this being something that does almost happen to this film as like was mentioned alot of the films white characters are racists and those that aren't get turned into vampires with there being no middle ground as all of the African American characters are all presented as being the good guys with there being no middle ground for them ether and yet if the film did show characters from both sides being either evil or good then it would have given them some wiggle room when it comes to the films main theme.

There was one shot in particular that really did blow alot of people myself included away that being the oner where they have the characters dancing in the bar and the camera just keeps going incorporating not only different styles of music like rock and jazz but also adding in modern characters to show how music can touch people of different generations. With the one long take lasting about five minuets of screen time as it ends when the camera pans up to the sky with the bar in fire and the people still dancing and then ends on a close up of Remmick which was just such a cool shot and it's one of those shots where it does make you how they did it due to the fact that there's so much that goes into pulling of a shot like that not only from a practical point of view but also an effects point of view as well and yet the makers of this film did pull of so well with it really being the best shot in the whole entire movie just due to how much things that it has to incorporate in to it with the fact that they add in people from more generations being something that you might notice upon a first viewing but it is something that you notice a second time around as it is something that does highlight how music can touch people of any generation and while yes the whole shot might be seen as being a dream just due to the fact that the bar isn't really burning down it is something that does help the sequence look all the more visually impressive then what it already is in the first place and the fact that it ends up on a close upshot of the films main villain is a subtle way of telling us the audience that the characters have had there fun and that it's time for them all to suffer.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly two hours and seventeen minuets and thirty eight seconds. Which for a horror film is a bit on the long side as the film really didn't need to spend as long as it does in just showing us how the brothers got there bar in the first place as you very easily could have dine all of that in just the first ten minuets of this film but to be fair tho this film really does have more then plot there to really cover that amount of running time in the first place with the film using it's running time as the film does fully develop it's plot with alot of the films plot development coming from the scenes prior to the vampires attacking the bar as we get to see just what music means to these characters and how it could possibly come into play in the rest of the film with the film even giving it's characters alot of character development as well with alot of their character development oddly enough coming in the films opening forty minuets which show us just all of the characters relationships to each other and how much they mean to each other something that would have been lost if the film did loose those opening forty minuets as while the seem pointless on the surface as nothing happens plot wise what we get in those scenes are these smaller character moments that help to fully flesh out all of the films characters and that is something that is key to making both the film and it's characters work as without those scenes we the audience wouldn't have a reason to care for it's characters and want to see them make it out of the film alive and well but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho. 

So now then as this is a horror film that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With the film not really having alot of kills in it the ones that it does have work so well s the film does give us time to let us get to know there characters and therefor when they are killed of we do feel something for them with this being something that this film does do kind of well as while the film does have alot of pointless scenes before the kills take place it's those pointless scenes that give us a chance to get this films characters in the first place with the best kill in the whole film being when Remmick and his crew of vampires start to attack Smock and Stacks's bar in the first place as while Stacks has already been killed at this point seeing him go toe to toe with his brother while the rest of their friends are quite literally fighting for their lives which is something that does make that sequence really worth watching and heck we do get some really impressive looking gore effects in that sequence as well and while yes granted the film does have some really impressive kills in it as well they just can't top the pure madness that is that one sequence as it really just so good with the film worth watching just for that one sequence as that's when we get to see all of the vampire carnage that a film like this should deliver with it doing so in spectacular fashion in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall both this film and Weapons have proven that not only can original films be good but so can original films in general as all you need is the right creative team behind them to make them as good as they could have been and that's exactly what this film had as this creative team made this films as could as it really could have been in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad thigs that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly an 8 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards .
