Re: Rate The Last Movie You Watched.
Dang - I think I ranked it around 7.5 or an 8 which for me is pretty high for a horror movie.
I'm striking out with all my suggestions.
I enjoyed it. It was scary. Better than I expected, and I am trying to rate more accurately. If 5/10 is simply an average film, and 10/10 is practically flawless...I think a point and a half above average sounds about right. Maybe 7/10.
I kinda felt that the vampire reveal was too quick. I wish it had been a bit more subtle, and they weren't shown as much. At least in the beginning.
One thing I hate is when vampires are changed too much from what they're supposed to be. I don't like the more animal-like design with a full set of fanged teeth. The screeching, goofy "eek nok" language..god those sounds were ridiculous. Really took me out of the movie. It seemed like they were making that up on the spot. That being said I'm not sure the terror factor would have been as prominent if the vampires weren't as mindless/animalistic. In that case I would have preferred it if they just went with a different monster.
Like I said though, I enjoyed the movie. I think it was definitely one of the better horror films in the past decade.
You guys tricked me too. Ben Foster had an entire what, three minutes of screentime?
He was very convincing as Mr. weird loner crazy guy though. I would have liked to see what his relationship with the vampires was.
Daybreakers is one of the better vamp movies in recent, it's not epic, but it's pretty good.
I really wanted to see that but totally forgot about it. Added to the list. It's the one where humans are near extinction and vampires are living on synthetic blood? I thought that sounded interesting.
Speaking of vampire movies, do all of the vampires in Blade look like this?
Maybe that's just something introduced in the sequels. Never seen any of the Blade movies
but I'd like to. That generic monster design is the only reason I haven't. I don't know anything about this series so forgive my ignorance.
Bale marathon isn't over BTW, just squeezing in some vampire.
