47. Blade Trinity

47. Blade Trinity

Rotten Tomatoes: 26%   IMDB: 5.8

Plot: Wesley Snipes returns to the screen as Blade, joined this outing by vampire hunters Ryan Reynolds and Jessica Biel along with their crew of "Nightstalkers" including Patton Oswalt. This time Blade is up against Dracula as the vampires prepare their final solution.



My Thoughts: Clunky is the first word that comes to mind for this installment of the Blade series. The acting is almost universally bad; I think Wesley Snipes, Ryan Reynolds and Dominic Purcell come out pretty well if their acting wasn't good it was at least better than the acting surrounding them. The lead female vampire was a really poor choice, the actress was awful, I cringed in every scene she was in. When you are sharing scenes with a wrestler, Triple H, in his film debut and you are the worst actor in the scene you suck. This had some good character designs, I loved Dracula's armored natural state. I would give this a weak recommend. How often do you see vampire dogs.

3. Cabin in the Woods Plot: 5 teens go into the woods and some bad stuff goes down My thoughts: I freaking love this movie, it is one of the best horror films of the past decade. It is loaded with injokes and forces you to examine who exactly you root for in these types of movies. Joss Whedon's brand of humor really shines in this film. High Recommend.

4. Lords of Salem Plot: Directed by Rob Zombie and starring Sherri Moon Zombie the movie takes place in modern day Salem where Sherri Moon Zombie plays Heidi a local DJ at a rock station. She receives an album by a band called "The Lords" that when played on air has a strange trance like effect on the women in town. Things get weird as "The Lords" plan a show in Salem. My thoughts: This is a strange one. Of all of Rob Zombie's films this is the one I am most on the fence about. I liked House of 1000 corpses, I loved Devil's Rejects, The Haunted World of El Superbeasto is easily one of the funniest things I've seen in awhile and then there are his awful Halloween remakes which I despise so where does this one fall? I really don't know. I thought it was well made, this is a beautifully shot film. The violence is tame and the colors are brilliant. Sherri Moon Zombie gives a complex and believable performance as Heidi. There are definite n

Purple People Eater (1988) IMDB: 4.5 A long time ago in a department store far, far away a six year old me was browsing through the display of Halloween titles on video tape the store had set up, and there amongst the Jasons and Freddies was a movie based on a song starring TV's Doogie Howser, I walked out of that store without purchasing this film a mistake that has hung over my life for decades, a mistake that thanks to the glory that is youtube has now been rectified. Dear readers I give to you Purple People Eater starring Ned Beatty, Shelley Winters, Neil Patrick Harris, Dustin Diamonds, Thora Birch and Sheb Wooley. Billy Winters (Neil Patrick Harris) has been left at home with his older sister whom we never see again and his younger sister Molly (Thora Birch) in the care of their Grandpa (Ned Beatty). Grandpa enlists Billy's help repainting his apartment, planting flowers and laughing...laughing at everything no matter how funny it may or may not be in that bi
