Beasterday: Here comes Peter Cottonhell


2014  comedy Horror  1:27

Something is killing the residents of some town, and the hippie mayor must be some ancestor of the one in Jaws as they are greedy and this one selfish as well.

Now some girl just got evicted and calls home that she’s coming back for a bit. While there she gets a job as an animal catcher with some pervy creep that reminds me of Adam Driver.

That poster, Horrific right? sadly and worse so disappointingly that is NOT the beastie we get…

The first scene at the wedding had me laughing. With that I’ll mention scenes seem random, like someone just edited in a bunch of stuff fro the cutting room floor.

I don’t know if this was supposed to be serious or not but I should have turned it off it was bad but it was like a car wreck…you couldn’t look away. I wanted to see how bad and ridiculous it got. Basically it was so bad it was funny.

Why Horror? (Documentary)


See the source image

WHY HORROR

Documentary   2014   82 minutes

I don’t really care for documentaries, but turns out when I pick them, they turn out pretty good and are not boring. (Guess it depends on the topic, and who directs or something)

Some of the notes I jotted down

    • Confront Fears
    • Control
    • *Reflect fears of the moment – Eli Roth
    • Gives you plenty to chew on
    • “Safe Darkness”
    • Bonding/community
    • misfits
    • Horror movies violence in cinema is progression in the right direction. Safest most benign way to exercise violent impulses
    • Its a fine line between madness and reality Continue reading “Why Horror? (Documentary)”

The Gambler


See the source image

 

2014  R  1:51  Bluray  Mark Wahlberg, john Goodman

 

The only way out, is all in

 

Jim Barnette is living a double life, by day he’s a college professor and by night, a compulsive gambler deeplyh in debt to loan sharks.

So after watching a big I’m think there’s maybe half the movie left and maybe  I’d take a break to grab a snack. Wrong!! I was only 31 minutes into the movie which felt like an hour. So if that plot sounds boring to you? Its boring to watch too!

Fast forward 15 minuntes

This just had to lose money at the box office right?

I think he’s living at his mother’s now and his car has just been repossessed.

Oh I get a break, a notification of some kitten video… and its trying or is hissing. This was more entertaining than the movie.  (its under Robin Sepult if you want to see it ‘New little kitten hisses at me’)

the dumbass doesn’t know HOW to gamble.. this should be a PDA (or at least included) for the dangers of gambling.

  1. First off do NOT play anything other than  some form of poker or black jack. Those you SORT of have a little control over (at least what’s in your hand)
  2. when my parents and I go to the casino we have a budget I take $50 tops (and NO debit/credit cards)and always take advantage of free money promotions) I usually get a free $5 each month. 
  3.  This is another important one. Have an envelope for money you WIN. Make sure you use nothing over $20 bills depending on your budget. It is easier to keep track of that way. Anytime you win keep your voucher in your WON envelope. DO NOT use this only use your budget.
  4. set HOW LONG you will be there for (say 2-3 hours) of course if you’ve taken a bus to one there’s not much you can do aside from bringing a book or some screen you can stream something on.
  5. THE MOST IMPORTANT  as soon as I win I stop. (I might throw in another few dollars but that’s it. No more  than $5-$10

I’m not sure of what type of person would actually be able to sit through this movie but honestly it should have a 15 -30 minute ‘serving’ make that viewing warning.

If I saw this in the theater I would have walked outand got my money back

Inherent Vice


2014 Rated R 2 hours 28 minutes

1970s L.A. Detective ‘Doc’ Sortello is pulled into his EX girlfriend’s bizarre circumstances. She suspects her new lover’s wife is intent on having him committed to an asylum.

48 minutes in and I still have well over an hour to go…and aside from previous mentioned, there’s not much to go on. 

He’s working on the case but its more like a real life pace than movie pace in which mean it will be solved as fast as your local precinct would. Also I’m not sure if its 1 or 2 cases he’s working. 

I swear some movies need to come with a ‘serving size’…his is certainly one of them. Maybe a 15-30 minute viewing size, though I did get through 45 minutes before I just couldn’t take it anymore and not sure if I wanted to scream or what but really lost my patience that I fast forwarded through the rest of it.

Maybe you need to be high to watch it, or in the middle of nowhere and its the ONLY thing to watch to be able to watch it. I cannot see this holding ANYONE’s interest unless in the cabin situation I just said. (like in the middle of Wisconsin or is it Minnesota that gets  massive snow fall that all the windows and doors are covered with snow? That is the only way, and them I’d find a book to read instead!

Grace then possession


2014  R  1:27

 

if this was good for anything is that instead of the typical Possession film, this one

I like and appreciate the idea, though I wish a better Possession movie was done in this fashion.

I just hope it doesn’t get over done. (Maybe a conjuring movie could do a better job.

My question however is why is it the overly religious adults who are the ones that get the possessed kids (or just telekinetic like carrie)?

 

starts out with Grace in Collage and her grandmother nagging the crap out of her. Grace starts seeing things that really didn’t happen and then Boom.. Grams Picks her up and takes her home not allowing her to go back.

Not memorable however its really not her fault she is possessed it has something to do with someone within the church. Which if Grams didn’t have her eye religiously closed… maybe she would have had a clue when it happened to her daughter.

Watch when nothing else is on

Space Station 76


2014  R  1:35   Patrick Wilson, Liv Tyler, Matt bomer, Jerry O’Connell

‘Domestic’ Comedy set aboard a a space station

IMDB Plot- A 1970s version of the future, where personalities and asteroids collide.

The Space Station is a refueling satellite near Earth, circa 1976.

Jessica arrives to serve as the station’s new first mate the irritably stiff Captain Glenn, who she’s baffled and disillusioned by. While she narrates a piece about how she likes the predictability of asteroids, some placidly drifting asteroids are shown colliding in chain-reaction fashion. While the  people seem friendly at first, Jessica soon discovers that the people on board have issues due to the isolation and stress of being cooped with one another in a relatively small space far from Earth, plus add to that the usual problems people struggle with such as Loneliness, depression, infidelity,  and drug abuse up.  Jessica tries to make friends and fit in, but, unable to connect meaningfully with anyone, she becomes lonely. She finds herself drawn to Ted, a lonely, married crewman, and his 7 year-old daughter, Sunshine. Ted yearns to reconnect…

Let’s Kill Ward’s Wife


2014  Not Rated 1:22  Unrated  Amy Acker, Donald Faison, Scott Foley , Patrick Wilson,Greg Grunberg ,     Comedy Crime134109

 

Everyone hates Ward’s wife, and wants her dead especially Ward. If you don’t hate her, then you must be just like her. She treats Ward like trash, gods forbid if he’s aloud to make a decision on his own or have a life other than her. Basically its an emotionally abusive relationship. The first time she opened her mouth,I think I wanted to strangle her. She’s rude, loud and honestly should have been emotionally or mentally tortured for how she treats Ward.  How do you marry someone like that, or is she like that now, cause they have a kid? Basically it seems she has one setting… PMS!!

This black comedy caper about helping a friend get out of a bad relationship by any means necessary was at times a little funny. My father made it sound like it was hysterical, but even as morbid and diabolical as I can be at times with my sense of humor, is how sinister   _____(wont ruin it)_______ is about it I’m not sure weather to say disturbing or funny. Then there’s how well Ward takes his wife’s death. I don’t think he was even upset, maybe a little shocked at first but it looked more like he got a thousand pound weight off his back.

I enjoyed the watch as well as the cast. It was funny but not lough out loud funny.

ITs at least average fare maybe a little better as for me it felt different from other comedies.

 

so maybe not LOL funny but it was morbid/sarcastic dark funny.

2014 Avatar Awards


So I’m ‘re-airing past Avatar awards as posts in the months leading up to the airing of 2017s awards in December.

I am trying to clear out a few pages in hopes the menu will not be as confusing.  You can still find 2016’s awards in the menu above  until sometime in the fall  (or December) depending when I get to set up and organize it.

2014   Avatar awards in 2015

©Kim Marie Ostrowski
Sounds pretty cool as an award name?!?!

1 Avatar Awards ticket 2014
Ticket’s Please

 

This is not the Oscars…cause they’re too snooty, though Neil Patrick Harris can run around with his underwear all he wants, and unlike the Oscars unless it’s for filming, No ‘Rick Grimes bear beards’

Awards are noted, but there  are some I did not find someone or watch something worthy of it, so it was left blank. I do try my best to see as much as I can but Life also gets in the way. I also hope net year that I can do this with more variety than just writing the text in.

Just because it’s here does not mean it won, I also sometimes note other awards winners (esp. If they’re a nominee for an Avatar Award)

(PCA)= People’s Choice Awards    (CCA) Critics’ Choice Awards

Avatar Award winners– Red, Blue, Underline or Bold

The Taking of Deborah Logan


2014    R    Jill Larson, Anne Ramsay, Michelle Ang,Brett Gentile     70 mins    Horror, Mystery, thriller

So I thought this was just another cliche possession movie. Wrong!

This was a ‘blair witch’ hybrid a single camera filmed docu horror as well as times where it seems like a normally filmed movie. Because of  her fast progressing disease (she has dementia or alzheimer’s) she is either possessed or just remembering some things.

I watched on Stream Dor a free app I got for my kindle, which you can watch movies free. (Though sometimes in another language with subtitles or in English with some foreign subtitles.  I ended up watching a couple of movies (forget which) in Polish, one in which I had already seen before so that was interesting to me.

I don’t find this movie to be worth the time really (unless you are perhaps bored in a hotel room, everything is closed or you are just in the middle of nowhere)  I was jsut so tired I jsut really did not want to read and had nothing else to watch that was short. Now I know why Netflix doesn’t have it!
