Horror Corner II: Sam's Lake

This was a surprising one for me. Don't get thrown off because of it being a foreign film, it's perfectly english but filmed outside the us. The acting is pretty good, some of the deaths aren't done that well, one in particular but overall this story will travel down one path making you think oh I've seen these before and then it 180s and becomes more of a thriller than a horror film. I enoyed this thoroughly! A great creepy fill to sit down with, not a gorefest, and not a sexfest to make up for bad writing. Just all around great scare!

Thriller Corner II: The Vanishing

This is an old one that I somehow missed out on, but hey, I was only 9 at the time! What a cast. Sutherland does a great job as always but Jeff Bridges, just wow. This is the only time I have seen him play a psychotic role and he really brings his game. Nancy Travis was also a great addition and even Sandra Bullock is part of the show. I just can't describe how amazing Bridges plays this part. I only wish that he would play some of the serial killers in Dean Koontz novel based films, he'd be so perfect. If you somehow missed this one like me you should definitely check it out.

Thriller Corner: The Reef

This is why you should not swear off all low budget films. Now this is one creepy film and very well done. I have not been impressed by a film like this since "monsters." The writing and directing was great. This wasnt a film where people are just mauled by aquatic monsters, or a bloody version of Jaws. This film keeps the suspense rolling and doesn't stop. An austrailian film but this is in english. Just goes to show that not only music is horrible in this country, horror films are really heading downhill as well, but at least other nations have the talent and these guys prove it!
