Yesterday I watched three horror movies almost back to back.
Firstly I watched my video of 'From Hell'. It is the story of Jack the Ripper and is, well, pretty good. It isn't exactly scary and stars Jonny Depp, but despite those small downfalls it is a pretty good film.
I then went to the cinema with a lady friend (oooh) and went to see Wrong Turn. It is a decent film and is quite original despite having some stereotypical clichés within it. Basically a group of young men and women get lost in the middle of a big forest and are killed one by one by a group of inbred freaks. It is like deliverance only with a more disturbing and 'scream like a little girl' twist. It does make you jump, unlike a load of other films in the modern horror genre. Instead of having misfit twenty-something serial killers as the scary aspect of the film, it is something new and original.
Then we did 'stuff' for a while and decided to go and see 'Identity' at the cinema.
So I sat there for about an hour or so before things began to fall into place. The film is exceptionally clever and is both well written and well acted and contains a superb concept and very new slant on films. I am not going to spoil the film for anyone who hasnt yet watched it because it will mess it up for you. I think it is one of those films you have to watch again like Sixth Sense. At the end of the film you feel enlightened as everything that doesn't seem quite right all fits into place. It isn't a regular horror movie, it is more of a phychological thingy-ma-jig. Very good though.
