Late Night With The Devil Film Review

As with every single genre of film out there horror goes through periods where we only get remakes and sequels and while yes these are still being produced. Right now we are seeing alot more horror stories that are telling original stories and guess what nine times out of ten they turn out to be really good movies with the latest example of this film having only just been released and so then join as I review the film that might very well be one of if not the best horror film of the year thus far with the film in question being called simply just "Late Night With The Devil" enjoy.

The plot of this film is a TV talk show in the seventies puts on the latest episode of his award winning TV show only this time he plans something that might finally give him the number one ratings spot. 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 as it was a plot that really hasn't been seen before as while other studios have done found footage films before none of them have been done in the way that this film does it and because of that the films plot comes across as being even more fresh and different and in a world where films are being bogged down by bad sequels and even worse remakes we really do need a plot that's fresh , new and different 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 David Dastmalchian as Jack Delroy , Laura Gordon as June Ross-Mitchell and Ian Bliss as Carmichael Haig. Also starring in this film is Fayssal Bazzi as Christou , Ingrid Torelli as Lilly , Rhys Auteri as Gus McConnell , Georgina Haig as Madeleine Piper , Josh Quong Tart as Leo Fiske , Steve Mouzakis as Szandor D'Abo , Paula Arundell as Diane , Christopher Kirby as Phil , John O'May as Walker Bedford , Starship Troopers star Michael Ironside as The Narrator and Nicole Chapman as Cleo James.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually feature / 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 alot better then what it really had any right to be. As on paper this film really didn't need any good acting in it and yet that's exactly what we got as all of this films actors turn in some really good performances with all of the cast of this film being just on top form in this film as they all have to play there characters but play them in a talk show format and still do it in a way that makes the characters feel alot more believable then what they usually would have done as that's just how good the acting in this film really is with the acting in this film really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so good that all this films cast have to do is just say the lines as they are written  and a good performance will come out of them naturally.

To be frank this film has alot of really likable character in it with the best example of this being the Jack Delroy character. With alot of this film coming across as being rather likable even the ones that your meant to hate have some likability factor to them with the best example of this being the character of Carmichael Haig who is a really unlikable character but even then the character does have some good points as well as even the character is meant to be a skeptic he does start to come round to what's going on with the backstory of what makes him a skeptic being somewhat understandable as he was a magician and so is used to lying to people which does make it understandable when he says that certain guests are doing whatever it is that there on the show to do and while the character could also be seen as a villain due to how he acts in certain bits of the film he could also be seen as a real person as real people can be both likable and really unlikable in certain lights.

The very idea for this film is a really good and solid idea as it's one that really hasn't been done before now. With the film really doing something new and different with the found footage idea by kind of presenting the film as a documentary with the main bulk of the film being made up of scenes from the actual episode in question while most found footage films will just have the footage appear out of nowhere here as we don't really get to see who finds the footage we can just assume that it comes from the documentary crew which is something that does make sense with even the idea of having a horror film set within the confides of a late night talk show being a really good as well as it does give us a new and unique looking setting that makes it standout from all of the other found footage horror films out there and it also gives the film it's own unique hook as the it really does look and feel like a talk show from the seventies.

While there are alot of positives to be found in this film there are some negatives to be found in this film as well. Like the fact that the film really does take it's time getting going with alot of the film being spent just with the characters talking to each other which does have the add on effect of making the film feel alot more boring then what it actually is and the film spends a long time on giving us a backstory for the main character which does make sense for the fictional documentary but it doesn't make sense for the film as while alot of what is said about the characters backstory does come back into play by the films third act it's also something that really does feel alot like padding with alot of what they say about the character being something that really didn't need to be said as they mention it several times all throughout the film which just makes those scenes feel alot like padding when it really doesn't need to be padded out at all and as a result of that is the fact that the film does come across as being a bit hard to si through alot of the time.

This film is one of many films to have gotten praise by Stephen King which is something that has lost it's shine as he does it all of the time. However here it is something that is earned as this film really is just all that good as it captures your attention right away and it keeps you hooked right until the films amazing third act twist which is something that does make you wonder if the character in question was truly insane or not and yet at the same time it gives you a reason to re-watch the film as now we the audience have to see when each of the films characters really do die and if what we're seeing for the vast majority of the film is actually happening or not and while the film does have some faults with it like for example the fact that it doesn't go as far as it really should've done with the late night talk show format or the fact that the film does get confusing near the end this is a case where the good might just outweigh the bad.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty two minuets and forty seven seconds. Which is a really solid running time for this film to have as the film really does have more then enough there interms of plot to really cover that large amount of time and while the film does have alot there interms of plot the films first two or so minuets are just spent on the opening logo's while they should have been spent on getting the plot of the film fully set up this is even more of an issue when you take into account that the plot of the film is a slow burner that takes a good forty or so minuets to really get going which does work both for ad against the film it works for the film as it gives the films characters a chance to really grow on us the audience and it works against the film as the film has a short amount of running and as a result of that is the fact that the plot needs to be advanced in alot of scenes but I 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 kills in this film being both creepy and inventive as the film does take full advantage of it's supernatural aspect when it comes to it's kills which does make all of the kills in this film really stand out as does the fact that all of this film were done practically which will always look better then having them done in CGI and while yes there is some CGI in this film it's only used to do things that you couldn't possibly do in live action and that does include some of this films kills as well with alot of the films kills being the true highlight of the film due to the fact that alot of them felt really earned and weren't there just because the studio demanded that a character get killed of at that partiicular point in the film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this film is so far the best horror film to have been released this is year as it really is just that good of a film and while it won't have something for everybody for those that do like it would have found something that's truly new , different and really unique as well 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 an 8.5 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 episode up 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.

The First Omen Film SPOILER FILLED Film Review

We seem to now be living in an age where every single classic horror franchise is really for better or for worse getting a new cinematic installment. With the recent franchise to be brought back to the big screen being oddly enough enough The Omen a franchise that really nobody has talked about for decades at this point and yet for some really strange reason a prequel film for this franchise has just been released and so then join me as I give you my SPOILER FILLED review of the film that borrows a plot from another really recently released horror film with the film in question being called simply just "The First Omen" enjoy.

The plot of this film is a young woman goes to Rome to become a Nun where she becomes involved in a scheme to bring back the Antichrist. 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 not that bad. With the biggest issue that this film has plot wise is the fact that it's pretty much a carbon copy of the plot of Immaculate with nothing being added to the plot to make it stand out and while yes this could very well be a coincidence it's to much of a coincidence for it be exactly that with this films take on the plot not really being all that new and different 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 Nell Tiger Free as Margaret Daino , Sônia Braga as Sister Silvia and Ralph Ineson as Father Brennan. Also starring in this film is Bill Nighy as Cardinal Lawrence , Tawfeek Barhom as Father Gabriel , Maria Caballero as Luz Valez , Nicole Sorace as Carlita Skianna , Ishtar Currie Wilson as Sister Anjelica , Andrea Arcangeli as Paolo and Game Of Thrones star Charles Dance as Father Harris.

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 not that bad. With alot of this films cast members turning in some really good performances while the films more well known cast members do indeed turn in some really good performances what lets the film down from an acting standpoint is the fact that alot of the films more lesser known cast members don't turn in that good of a performance with alot of them turning in what can only be described as wooden at best performances especially when compared to the more well known cast members this isn't to say that all of the films cast members turn in a good performances as that's not the case with Nicole Sorace turning in a really good performance but what does let the acting down is the fact that this films script is just so bad as it gives none of the films cast absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there respective characters personalities are even meant to the in the first place which is something that really does effect the overall quality of the acting in this film.

This film does do something that not alot of modern films try to do and that's give us some actually likable characters. With nearly all of the characters that your supposed to like in this film being really likable with the same thing also being true for the films villains as they all comes across as being likable characters which makes it all the more shocking when the films villains are revealed as we the audience have been given the chance to really like these characters and want to see them succeed and yet when it's reveled who the films main villains are it really is truly shocking to see and it goes to show you that the makers of this film really do know how to make good characters as alot of this films characters do have flaws to overcome and while alot of this films characters aren't that memorable they are characters that have the potential to be really strong characters in their own right but at the same time tho the characters in this film could have been handled alot more better then what they actually were in the final cut of the film.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!

This film is of course a prequel to the film The Omen altho you wouldn't really know about it as aside from one character who appears not even a handful of times there's nothing to tie the films together at all. All of which makes it feel like that this film started life as something that was separate from the Omen franchise but then at some point during the films production it then became an Omen as while the film does give us a pointless original for Damian it neither looks like nor does it even feel like an Omen film as it adds nothing to the mythology of the the earlier films it's just there for the sake of being there and as a result of that the film really does feel like that it's disconnected to the The Omen films as there's really nothing to suggest that these two films are connected to each other in anyway shape or form which with this film being a prequel film that really should have happend even if alot of it just felt like fanservice and added nothing to the plot of this film it still would have been really better then nothing.

As a film this one really did feel like it wasn't needed like it was only made s that Twentieth Century Studios could keep the rights to the film. As really nobody has been talking about this franchise at least from a mainstream point of view for almost twenty years and heck nobody eve talked about the TV show that came out in 2016 as by that point in time the franchise was all but dead something which was very swiftly helped by the 2006 remake and yet for some strange reason the makers of this film chose to give this franchise a prequel film which is made even more pointless when you take into account the first film and as a result of that we already know that Damian is going to come out of the film alive and well as he's the main character of the franchise and as a result of that we already know exactly how this film will end and because of that is the fact that this film really does loose any suspense that the film could have had going into it.

To give this film some credit it does try to give us something new and different as even taking the shocking similarities with Immaculate out of it. This is film is vastly different plot wise from all of the the horror films that have been coming as this film is just content with doing it's thing and with giving us characters that we actually like and while the plot is a carbon copy of another film that doesn't stop this film being as shocking as the original film even if the films most shocking moment is just a straight up carbon copy of the most famous scene from the original film and the whole idea of the main protagonist actually getting something wrong as she believes that it's her friend who's going to give birth to the antichrist is a good idea and the film does the best that it can do with that idea but it could have doe so much more with that idea like they could have shown the friend in question dying due to all of the pressure that Margaret has unknowingly been putting her under that right there would have the characters more interesting and it really would have Margaret herself a more human like protagonist as well.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and fifty minuets and forty seconds. Which is a tad bit on the long side for this film to have as this film really doesn't have alot there inters of plot to really cover that large amount of running time as being realistic the film only has enough plot for around forty to forty five minuets and as a result of this we have over an hour of the film that is nothing but pure filler and it's that filler that really does drag the film down as we don't need to see alot of the scenes in the convent as alot of it is just repeating information that we already got from any of the previous scenes scenes which does make alot of those scenes feel very same like and very boring as a result of that as we're not being told anything new we're just getting the same old information and we're really just watching the characters go about there day to day lives and there's only so long that you can really see that before it gets boring and that it's something that happens really quite quickly in this film but I will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is horror film that means that we 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 too us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad. As alot of this films were really good to look at and were rightfully really creepy as well as alot of them just come out of nowhere the famous scene from the original where the Nanny hangs herself at Damien's birthday party being pretty much redone here in this film only now the nun also lights herself on fire which is a little touch but it's one that also makes the kill just as effective even if it's not as scary and that's the same thing with alot of the kills in this film as alot of the kills were really done but alot of them just lacked that extra special something that makes them scary as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!

Overall this film while it is indeed a pointless film that really adds nothing to the franchise it is still a film that had all of the potential to be a really good film and if it was attached to a pre-existing franchise it would have been a better film as it wouldn't have all that love that really does come from being apart of a pre-existing franchise 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 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 the official Disney fandom wiki page , the official The Omen fandom wiki page , 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 episode up 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.

Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood And Honey 2 Film SPOILER FREE Film Review

When the very idea of turning a beloved childrens character into a horror film goes viral and that films becomes a hit then there's only thing that you can do. That being to make a sequel out of it and hope to god that the same success happens this time and given that a third film has already been announced and that the first film is now retroactively the start of a brand new cinematic universe then you just know that the film are on to something and so then join me as I give you my SPOILER FREE review that introduces both Owl and Tigger into the series with the film in question being called simply just "Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood And Honey 2" enjoy.

The plot of this film is one year after the events of the film Christopher Robin must face his friends again as Pooh and Piglet team up with Owl and Tigger to bring there twisted form of revenge on the unsuspecting town of Ashdown. 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 no that bad as it was a step in quality from the plot of this film but at the same time tho this films plot wasn't all that good as it lacks a certain charm that the lot of the first film had in spades as the plot of this film does a very good job of being a self contained plot that is very entertaining in it's own right however tho it's still just a plot that felt like a rip off of the plot of Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends only done on a much smaller budget with the plot of this 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 Scott Chambers as Christopher Robin , Tallulah Evans as Lexy and Ryan Oliva as Winnie-The-Pooh. Also starring in this film is Teresa Banham as Samantha , Alec Newman as Alan Robin , Nicola Wright as Daphne Robin , Thea Evans as Helen "Bunny" Robin , Flynn Matthews as Finn , Toby Wynn-Davies as Dr. Arthur Gallup , Simon Callow as Cavendish , Eddy MacKenzie as Piglet , Marcus Massey as Owl and Lewis Santer as Tigger.

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 personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's / actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty alot better then what it had really any right to be. As nobody was expecting this film to have good acting in it infact alot of people would have been expecting to have some really rather bad acting in it and yet we actually got some really good acting in this film with all of the actors really delivering some really rather good performances in this very film with the acting in this film being alot better then the acting that we got in the first film and while the acting in this film is still bad it's still alot better then alot of other small time independent horror films out there with the acting in this film not really by the fact that this films script is just so bad as it gives none of the films cast absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it that there respective characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does bring down the overall quality of the acting in this film.

This film is now officially the second film of what's being called The Twisted Childhood Universe which is a new cinematic universe that's going to house a bunch of horror films based of off childrens classic characters all of which are leading to there first crossover film which is an Avengers style film called Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble.Which just makes all of these bad films both somehow good and yet worse at the exact same time as now we get to see not one but multiple films all fail at the exact same time and we get to see just how this bad cinematic universe could quite possibly fail but at the exact same time tho the very idea of giving all of these weird and strange horror films there own cinematic universe is just so weird that it might just work and while they will never be able to compete with the DC Cinematic Universe or even the Marvel Cinematic Universe it is still interesting to see just how this quite possible cinematic universe could quite possibly take place. 

Rather rightfully this film has a much more bigger budget then that of the first film with the first film having a budget of $50,000. With this film having a budget of $533.144 dollars and to this films credit it really does show as not only do both Pooh and Piglet get redesigns that make them look ten times better then how they looked in the previous film but the film now also has more budget to do things like having explosions and creating new characters like Owl and Tigger both of whom do look really good with the best looking out of those two being Owl who just looks really creepy but with that being said tho the previous film has a certain charm to it due to how small that it's budget is as the previous film looked like a film that a group of friends would make where as this film looks like a film that a bunch of soulless people would make both are good yes but there has to be a way to have the charm and cheapness of the first film whilst also having the budget of this film.

For some reason the film does something that's really rather stupid to the backstory of these characters which just doesn't work at all. As it then forces you to question the events of not only the previous film but also the backstory that both films give us and when you do that you'll find that the add on that's in this film just doesn't add up as there's no way that it could have happened without making one of the films characters look really dumb in the process and while fixing continuity is a frequent thing in films as alot of films do go back and either retcon certain things or also add things that change certain things in the continuity however none of those things ever effect what came before nor do they go against what came before where as with this film it goes against everything that was set up in the previous film that it makes it hard to work out or even care about the canon and lore of this universe as it could get changed in a future film.

The very idea of the characters attacking the town that Christopher Robin lives in is a really good idea and it's one that works in this film. However at the same time due to the films still small budget alot of it just can't be as fully realized as it really should have been with there being quite alot of kills that happen of screen and alot of things that are all shot in the dark which makes all of the films sets look exactly the same alot of which would have been fixed if the film had a more larger budget so that we could see alot of the cooler stuff and so that we could see alot of the films sets and when we do get to see alot of the cool stuff in this film it is something that is really cool that makes the whole idea work really well with the idea being helped by the fact that alot of the characters from the Winnie The Pooh books do feel alot more in character then what they did in the previous film with Owl being the smart one of the group with him coming up with alot of the groups plans which works because that's in his character to act like that.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour ad twenty eight minuets and thirty six seconds. Which is the absolutely perfect running time for a film like this one to have as this kind of film really doesn't have alot of plot to really cover a much more longer running time with this running pretty much the bog standard for these films as well and while the film could have been better if it had a much more longer running time as it would have allowed to see more of how people reacted to Christopher Robin after the events of the first film as that was a really interesting idea at the same time tho by doing that it would be stretching the films plot even thinner then what it already is with the plot then being stretched beyond breaking point however if the film was longer it would also allow for the films characters to become more fully developed then what they already are but I 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 means 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 alot better then what they really had any right to be. As the kills in the first film weren't that good but good for what little money that they had to make the film and with this films getting a biggest budget we get to see alot more really good looking kills but with that being said the films has what could have been it's best and most coolest kill happen off screen for some reason which makes no sense as the film had the budget to show us the kill and yet the makers of this film chose to have what would have been it's most coolest kill happen off screen when it's something that should have bee shown to us on screen in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this film is alt better then the first film but at the same time it does also suffer from alot of the same issues that the first film also suffered from with this film being a clear example the makers of this new cinematic universe are willing to listen to what the people are telling them and fix issues with there films 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 means that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all f 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 the official Horror Film fandom wiki page , the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page , Tenor 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 episode up 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.

A Nightmare On Elm Street 4: The Dream Master Film Review

There are alot of horror icons out there but the biggest one at least interms of eighties slasher villain icons is quite easily Freddy Krueger. With the characters films being one of the most popular slasher series of films out there with alot of them including the more lesser sequels having there fans but as with any franchise there comes a point where the films start going downhill and downhill fast and that is one of the films that i'm going to talking about today and so then join me as I review the film that kind of marks the start in the decline of quality for these films with the film in question being called simply just "A Nightmare On Elm Street 4: The Dream Master" enjoy.

The plot of this film is sometime after the events of the third film Kristen , Joey and Kincaid are killed of by Freddy and it's up to Kristen's friend Alice to stop him 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 not that bad but that's also the issue as the plot of this film wasn't all that good either as it just felt like the typical plot for these A Nightmare On Elm Street films to have only without any of the magic care and attention to the plot and that characters that really made the plot of even the third film and the first first and second film as well really stand out as at least that plot tried to advance the characters from the original film where as this film doesn't even bother to do that infact alot of them have regressed inbetween films but I will admit that the plot of this film is 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 Lisa Wilcox as Alice Johnson and Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger and A Nurse. Also starring in this film is Danny Hassel as Dan Jordan , Tuesday Knight as Kristen Parker , Brooke Theiss as Debbie Stevens , Ken Sagoes as Roland Kincaid , Rodney Eastman as Joey Crusel , Andras Jones as Rick Johnson , Toy Newkirk as Sheila Kopecky , Nicholas Mele as Mr. Dennis Johnson and Brooke Bundy as Elaine Parker.

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 not that bad. Which isn't all that new as this films director Renny Harlin really does know how to get a good performance out of his cast and alot of the actors in this film are a bunch of really good actors alot of which are reprising their roles from previous films and would there for know what kind of performance to give in any given scene and what kind of performance would be best to suit there respective characters but even the new cast do turn in some good performances was well when there acting against the returning actors with the acting in this film really being helped by the fact that this films script is just so good that all the films cast have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally.

This film does also have the best way that Freddy has ever been resurrected in any of these films as it's a really over the top scene. With his resurrection being a really fun and creative scene as we get to see everything that we expect to see about Freddy come back to life in what it a really fun sequence and heck even the kill after his resurrection is a fun kill but what lets the whole scene down is the fact that we get to see Freddy fully which is something that we don't even need to see as just showing us his silhouette would have been more then enough as it's something that really does tell you that it's Freddy which makes showing him in close up pointless as it's telling us nothing new but at the same time tho the close up shot is a good way to get Robert Englund on screen earlier but at the same time tho it adds nothing that we haven't already seen or even been told before and the dog doing his business on his grave was a nice touch as well. 

One of the many things that this film gets wrong is the fact that it's characters just aren't as likable nor as they as well written as the characters in the previous films. Minus one or two characters this films main characters just aren't that likable as alot of them just because as being like bland characters while they do have personalities there very note personalities with all of them just having the one personality trait like Dan Jordan who's the good looking guy of the group and that's really it and it's the same thing for alot of this films characters including both Kincaid and Joey both of whom have gone from having a personalty that they worked with in the previous film and had issues that they both had to overcome to in this film having no personalty with in the case of Kincaid having the exact same flaw that he had gotten over in the previous film and Kristin has gone from someone who knew that she had defeated Freddy at the end of the previous film to someone who's afraid of her own shadow all of which is done with for no reason what so ever.

The only three characters about from Freddy who have alot of personality or Kristin , Rick and the films main character Alice. With Alice being the best main character in this film as she is a character that has flaws like the fact that she is a shy person who can't or at best won't stand up for herself as we see at several points in the film when she talks with her dad and while the film does nothing with the fact that she daydreams alot it is something that could also be seen as an extension of her being a shy person with the best scene in the whole entire movie being the scene where she gets ready for the final fight with Freddy as she takes off all of the pictures that she has on her mirror finally seeing herself as others see her for the first time and that is something that also serves as a conclusion of the characters own personal character arc as for better or for worse it's due to Freddy that she becomes this more confident and outgoing person who knows what she wants and how to get it all of which combine to make her a really strong female character that is also a fairly well written female character on top of all of that as well.

Another think that while this film doesn't get wrong it is something that would become an issue later in the franchise is the fact that this is film where Freddy really started to become fun time Freddy. As while the character was indeed really popular by the time that the third film was being made and released he was still being written as someone who while yes did crack jokes would also kill you in some really gruesome ways where as in this film he is written less scary like the makers of this film wanted to make him more save to market to over people outside of the horror world but what the makers of this film failed to realise is that by doing that they then really opened up the gateway for the kind of Freddy that would really put alot more focus on telling dark jokes then he would in giving us dark kills that really  played on his victims fears and anxieties something which is yes still present in this film just look at Debbie's kill as a chief example of that he doesn't really kill people in ways that feel personal to them which is something that the Freddy of the previous films would have gone out of his way to do.

Now then while I cannot for the absolutely life of me really remember whatever this films grand total running time even was I do know that this film has / has an exact grad total running time of roughly one hour and twenty nine minuets. Which is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for these films especially the later sequels to have as the film has more then enough there interms of plot to really cover that large amount of running time but at the same time tho the film could have done with a longer running time just to fully flesh out the films newer characters and make them just as good as the characters where in the previous films and the best thing is that the plot wouldn't really need to be stretched as you could have had some of the other characters be drawn into the plot as well as was the original plan with Mr. Dennis Johnson original being killed off which really could have given him a nice and sweet moment with his daughter but because that scene wasn't included in the final cut of the film despite being filmed his character really isn't as fully developed as he really could have been with the same thing also being true for alot of the films newer characters as well but I will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this a slasher film that means 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 not that bad but that's also the issue as the films kills weren't always all that good either. As while the film really does have some memorable kills like with Debbie and Sheila for example the film does also have some lame kills like with Kincaid and Rick and to lesser degree Kristin as well with Rick's kill really being the worst one as he's killed of by an invisible Freddy which is really cheap looking but when the film does give us a really good kill it is something that sticks out and helps to make this movie even better then what it really had any right to be in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall while this film does indeed start the downfall for this franchise for these sequels this is still a really good fun film altho it's one that's also really safe and very marketable as it is a film that really does play everything as safe as they possibly could do as well 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 6.5 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 the official A Nightmare On Elm Street fandom wiki page , 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 episode up 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.

My SPOILER FILLED First Impressions Of The The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live TV Series

The Walking Dead is the franchise that just will never ever die despite the main series having ended a few short years ago. Every so often the franchise comes back either with a new video game or in this case a new spin off as the latest attempt to cash in and build upon the world of The Walking Dead has finally premiered and so then join me as I give you my SPOILER FILLED first impressions of the show that started life as a series of Walking Dead Rick Grimes movies with the show in question being called simply just "The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live" enjoy.

The plot of the episode is nine years after rescued by an army helicopter Rick Grimes tries to escape from the organisation that saved enslaved him and others like him in order to reunite with his family. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode 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 episode was in all honesty not that bad but at the same time tho this episodes plot wasn't all that good either as it doesn't give you a good idea of what the plot of the show will be about with this episodes plot not really being helped by the fact that best way to describe this episodes plot is really thin at best as that's exactly what it is with it being so thin infact that it's hard too tell what the plot of the episode even is with this episodes plot not really being all that entertaining and not really being all that engaging either in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this episode is the shows co-creator and executive producer Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes and the shows co-creator and executive producer Danai Gurira as Michonne Grimes. Also starring in this episodes is Lost star Terry O'Quinn as Beale , Craig Tate as Donald Okafor , Lesley-Ann Brandt as Pearl Thorne , Frankie Quinones as Esteban Garcia , Alexis Rae Forlenza as Little Girl , Karma Jenkins as Hannah and Les Trent as Anchor.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode 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 episode was in all honesty really good. With both Andrew and Danai turning in some really solid performances in this episode which really isn't all that new as they both a pair of really talented actors who both know how to turn in a good performance and given that both of them have been playing there respective characters for years at this point they would of course would know what kind of performance to give there respective characters in any given scene but what really does let the overall quality of the acting down is the episodes script which is just so bad as it gives none of the episodes much to work interms of what it is that there respective characters personality is even meant to be in the first place and that is something that really does hurt the overall quality of the acting.

For once it's actually hard to tell who did this episodes CGI as there's no effects company listed anywhere on IMDB. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about rhe actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode 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 episode was in all honesty not that bad but at the same time tho this episodes CGI wasn't all that good either as it looked incredibly dated and incredibly cheap looking as well with it being painfully obvious when there using a CGI effect which is inline with the rest of the The Walking Dead but it's still a huge issue as CGI should be hard to pick out and yet when it's being made painfully obvious that what your looking as  CGI effect that it's a bad sign for the rest of not only this episodes CGI but the series CGI as well as a hole.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!

Even tho the whole point of this show is to show Rick and Michonne trying to meet each other again after almost ten years apart. This episode has them meet up at the end of the first episode as such there's no reason to watch the rest of the show as the whole reason for the show existing is resolved by the end of the first episodes while the whole point of this show is tell a love story set in the world of The Walking Dead the makers of this show failed to realise that you could still do that without having both of the lovers in question meeting up again as the two have spent years together thanks to being on The Walking Dead as such having them meet up at the end of this episode makes no sense as well as robbing us the audience of a reason to watch the rest of the show as the show now gives us no reason to watch the rest of the show.

For those of you who don't know this show was originally meant to be a series of three movies all of which were going to be released theatrically. This show in all honesty would have worked best as a trilogy of movies as it would have allowed for more character development that you just wouldn't be able to get in a six episode series and heck with a trilogy of movies the whole world of The Walking Dead could be opened up to include things that couldn't be included in the show due to whatever reasons and yet by making it into a TV show the franchise remains where it's most comfortable telling the same kinds of stories from the same writer all of which do more harm not only to this episode but to the show as a whole as the show is only six episodes long and yet just based of off this one episode there's no hint of what the plot of the show could have been where as Rick trying to meet up with Michonne again could have been the plot of the show if it wasn't ruined by having them meet up again at the end of the first episode.

The new characters in this show do have some potential to be fun characters but none of them are really given a chance to shine. Which is understandable as this is only the first episode but when your show is six episodes long you have to give them a chance to shine pretty much in episode one and while these new characters do seem like there likable with one of them even willing to try and help Rick escape at one point it ends up being for nothing as were not being given a reason to care for the new characters which again is something that does make sense as this is only episode one of the show again due to the episodes shorter episode order this is something that is going to hurt the show in the long run as now we the audience have no reason to care for these characters and no reason to want to see any more of there new characters which is made even more worse when the far more interesting returning characters are on screen.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and fifty eight seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for this show but as this episode has not alot of plot to cover that large amount of running time as alot of the time were just seeing Rick going about his day to day life and there's only so long that you can see that before it starts to get boring which in this episode happens quite quickly and yet the whole general idea of the show could have been more interesting then what it ended up being as this episode really isn't the strongest episode to start this new show of on and when you start something on faulty foundations it doesn't matter how good the rest of the show because the start of the show was built of on faulty foundations with none of this being helped by the fact that this episode has some pretty bad pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a zombie show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very episode 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 episode was in all honesty really cool. With alot of the zombie kills in this episode being the most entertaining part of the episode as we get to see alot of the more gruesome kills that we all know that this show can give us and yet even with the all of the shows kills none of those mean anything as the plot of the show episode just isn't that good with the awesome kills in this first episode pretty much being there just to remind us that yes this is a zombie show and really nothing all the more then that in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!

Overall this is fairly bad first episode and as such it's hard to see this show catching on much like the first episode of either Fear The Walking Dead and The Walking Dead did as this episode just isn't that good or even all that interesting for that matter in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as we as all of the bad things in this very post and since this is only my first impressions I won't be giving this show a rating however if i'm still watching this show when this shows final episode airs or even is released online and then i'll give this a show review and a rating as well.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post 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 post from the official The Walking Dead fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because the official The Walking Dead fandom wiki page actually has images from this episode up on the official The Walking Dead fandom wiki page and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on the official The Walking Dead fandom wiki page 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.
