Title: The Crazies
Year: 2010
Rating: 7/10
IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0455407/
Directors: Breck Eisner

Starring: Radha Mitchell, Timothy Olyphant, Danielle Panabaker

Short Critic:
"Remake of the 1973 G.A. Romero classic of the same name. I watched this movie 3 o'clock in the morning and was surprised by it. The atmosphere is really suspenseful and threatening. The acting is nothing special but overall ok. And just the right amount of gore for this kind of movie. The original holds a special place in my (horrorloving)-heart because it functions as the example for the horror-comic-series Crossed."

Short Critic:
"Home Invasion Movie, there is not much more to say about this film. Mediocre on all levels and it uses this horrible 'Twilight'-color-correction style everything looks over-saturated or grey. BTW Paquin and Moyer have less then 10 minute screentime."

"It's a remake of an mexican movie with the same title. It's about the traditions of a family after the mother passes away. The cinematography and the acting of the main characters is great, the script is lacking at some points but if you like more or less subtle horror you are in for a treat."

Directors: Aaron Aites, Audrey Ewell

Starring: Varg Vikernes, Fenriz 

Short Critic:
"I think this is the first Documentary about the Norwegian Black Metal-scene! The Tagline: Music. Arson. Murder. Art. Black Metal. pretty much sums it up! You see interviews with the important figures of Norwegian Black Metal: Varg "Count Grishnackh" Vikernes (Burzum), Fenriz (Darkthrone), Jan Axel Blomberg (Mayhem). It reflects the very obscure and bizarre History of the scene and give imho a good pov!"

Directors: Richard Attenborough

Starring: Robert Downey Jr., Geraldine Chaplin, Paul Rhys

Short Critic:
"Why is this movie so underrated and unknown? It's Downey Jr. playing Charles Spencer Chaplin the real king of comedy! The movie is pretty similar to Ed Wood. You see the laughs and the tragic parts of Chaplins life played by a superb Downey Jr. Overall good Cast and the end made me cry tears of pure emotion!

Watch it!"

"Lang's first sound film. You see the expressionistic style of the early german cinema in every scene also you see the upcoming Nazi-Regime. Peter Lorre is awesome as the "M" and a great twist at the end! Loving it!"
