An American Haunting
Posted in Films Watched, Uncategorized on February 21, 2010 by sabqat9Terrifying movie – the most disturbing thing about it was the fact that a whole community of people pooled all there money and time to create this film – lacked a story and when you felt like there was a narrative, there wasn’t much substance to it – long sequences of semi horror / possessions that become boring rather than scary after a while – I have no clue why they produced this film
Star Trek (2009)
Posted in Films Watched, Uncategorized on February 20, 2010 by sabqat9Great film – break away from old Trekkie films – more of an action flick with plenty of effects and flash – didn’t really need to know back story of previous Trek films or series – simple story / plenty of special effects

Done like a biography/documentary/movie style – quality of writing and filmography is between a mediocre hollywood movie and a mediocre tv film – not great
