Basic Plot:  Werewolves battle each other over a child fated to bring about an end to lycanthropy.

Outburst:  It wasn’t a terrible movie, because it would have been funnier. Not very good, weak premise and mediocre acting.

— Only if you are truly bored and really like werewolves.

Basic Plot:  Based on a hit Broadway musical, the story of Sweeney Todd, a murderous barber, and his devious accomplice Ms. Lovett, a seller of suspicious meat-pies.

Outburst:  Everything we love about Tim Burton wrapped into a wickedly sinister horror film. It’s always fun to see a film for the first time and know it to be an instant cult classic.

/CULT DVD — Unless you are adamantely opposed to horror films or musicals (in which case you win a pass) you must see this film. Go ask your cult-film-loving friends to borrow a copy of their DVD.

Basic Plot: A skeptical writer spends the night in an evil hotel room. Based on a story by Stephen King.

Outburst:  True to form, King’s short stories seem to create better movies than his novels. This is a horror flick, creepy in nature but without much blood, death, or destruction. You will be pleasantly freaked out, not jumpy at small sounds afterward… unless you watch it in your hotel room.

/ (2 of 3 stars) – Be prepared for psychological weirdness, not gruesome mayhem.
