Included by film expert John Muir are more than thirty firsthand accounts and interviews with filmmakers that have worked with Raimi, from the cinematographers who shot the early films, to the producers, screenwriters, actors, special effects technicians, and music score composers who collaborated to make his films the stuff of box office legend and the focus of a devoted following of dedicated fans. The Unseen Force is a welcome and greatly appreciated contribution to the annals of filmmaking and filmmaker histories. ![]() Drag Me to Hell (Unrated Director's Cut) [Blu-ray] $39.98 This is such a great movie! I would definitely suggest watching this if you are a horror movie fan. Lots of fast surprise scares, even if you're expecting it! I really can't believe anyone would rate this movie less than a 4. Amazing job Sam Raimi and Alison Lohman, (and whoever played that crazy old lady :P). Worth the purchase! This is definitely going on my favorite movies list, top 10 for sure! Hope you enjoy! ![]() Intruder $24.98 Everyone knows grocery store checkouts cost an arm and a leg. In this grocery store it literally costs you an arm and a leg. Intruder was filmed in 1989 and released a few years ago on DVD. I came across this film in Blockbuster and it looked interesting so I gave it a try. Glad I did. It's fun, and funny and very very gory. The movie is the usual-set up some characters, toss around a few red herrings, then have them slaughtered by an unknown killer. The identity of the real killer is obvious to anyone who pays attention to the characters in the store. One of them disappears from sight and since we dont see this person killed-well there you go. To add to the short list of suspects is the ex-con boyfriend of one of the stores checkout cashiers. The movie is not even a great slasher film-you know a hanging meat hook in the stores meat locker will soon have a shelf stocking clerk hanging from it-an eyeball in a olive jar, a severed arm in the lobster tank, a head split horizontally by a meat slicing machine, a human head hand puppet and there is a kill scene that looks eerily realistic. A young man is stabbed in the stomach with a large bone-cutting knife and instead of a quick cut to another scene..well it's hard to describe but it's the look of resignation on the young mans face about what is happening to him that makes this scene a little unusual. Intruder is not intended for anyone expecting art but in it's own cheesy way it's a lot of good bloody fun. Remember--the next time you are in a grocery aisle and you see some, red goo on the floor, it might be possible that it's not some spilled strawberry jam. And yes Jason, this movie has a lot of places to have a good laugh at. |
