Preservation

Preservation - review
2014
7
Director: 
Christopher Denham

SYNOPSIS: 

An anesthesiologist (Wrenn Schmidt) must stir her animal senses when she, her better half and her brother by marriage turn into the quarry of concealed hunters who need to transform them all into trophies.

REVIEW: 

So this is somewhat of a spoiler, however the "motif" of this motion picture is the killers are young people - however I'm certain you likely made sense of that when you read they ride bikes.
That all by itself is insufficient to destroy this film. What is, in any case, is their appearing invulnerability (when it's helpful, obviously). The previously mentioned Sean is a previous military veteran who, at a certain point, hits one of the children in the head with the handle of his rifle most likely five or six times. Not exclusively does the executioner get up as though nothing happened, Sean doesn't have enough sense (remember, he is prepared close by to hand battle) to make certain the person is unarmed, dead, oblivious, or any of the above. Rather, he walks out on him. Another scene sees a child bounce back from a flat out beating as though nothing has happened. At first I thought maybe the masks made them strong, but this is not the situation. It's scene after scene of this, and unpleasant subplots that go no place, alongside unlikable characters, that make this motion picture hard to sit through. The quest for the assassins at last is totally mind blowing and ludicrous, however the child interfering with a slaughtering to answer a call from his mother was engaging. I had high trusts in this film (for reasons unknown) however Preservation at last puts on a show of being an irregular blend of Eden Lake and Wrong Turn.

Carnage Park Review

Carnage Park

2016

Like his peer Quentin Tarantino, writer/director Michael Keating is famous for making films that are all about borrowing from the greats to create something truly unique. Carnage Park is definitely a good example of his fast-paced filmmaking style in action, but how does it stack up to his other work, and is it actually worth a spot on your running list of must-see films? Carnage Park can probably best be described as a horror film crossed with a crime thriller. In addition to being written and directed by Michael Keating (who also directed Psychopaths, Ritual and the... Read More

A Quiet Place review

A Quiet Place

2018

There are movies that take their time building a mood and movies that pull you right into their carefully crafted worlds pretty much right away. John Krakinski’s A Quiet Place is definitely the latter. The first thing the viewer sees is a barefoot family scavenging for supplies in the middle of an abandoned supermarket. However, they’re doing so completely silently – not exactly average for a family that includes three children. We’re promptly informed via a title card that we’re on “Day 89” of whatever’s going on and with that, our journey into this very quiet world... Read More

Winchester

2018

What horror fan doesn’t love a good haunted house story – especially one based on real people, places, and events? That’s Winchester in a nutshell. If you’ve ever been to San Jose’s Winchester Mystery House (or heard of it), then you’re already somewhat familiar with the backstory to Winchester.

After her husband and daughter both pass away, the grieving Sarah becomes convinced that she’s haunted by the many... Read More

It Follows review

It Follows

2014

Horror films at their very best successfully tap into the primal fears and apprehensions of its audience. They not only remind us of the things we’re afraid of but challenge us to ask why they make us so afraid. They also inspire us to contemplate whether or not falling victim to our worst fears is something that can be avoided, and if so, at what cost. If that’s the kind of horror film you absolutely love, then It Follows was definitely made with you in mind. It Follows made its debut at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival and was later distributed by Radius-TWC to the tune... Read More

Super Dark Times Review

Super Dark Times

2017

When it comes to suspense films populated by teenage characters, there are lots of elements that can mean the difference between hit or miss. However, mood could well be the most important. A mood that’s perfectly on point can convince an audience to forgive plenty of other things and Super Dark Times definitely delivers in that department, but is it enough to earn this directorial debut from Kevin Phillips a spot on your must-see list? Super Dark Times follows the story of two teenage best friends, Zach (Owen Campbell) and Josh (Charlie Tahan). As might be expected of... Read More
