Why so bad?

+ At last, REAL vampires!
+ Don't Expect Anne Rice's Kind Of Vampires In This Movie

I don't understand why this movie recieved poor reviews. The concept is excelent, the acting was pretty flawless, the FX were simple yet effective, and the vampires were the most ruthlessly frightening that I've seen in a very long time. The only reason I can think of as to why certain viewers ...

WORTH SEEING FOR ANNA FARIS'S PERFORMANCE ALONE!

I caught this film on cable and even though this film doesn't really go anywhere, I still found it mildly enjoyable because of Anna Faris's hysterical performance. Faris portrays a "pothead" who after smoking up her whole bag of weed decides she is going to eat her roommate's "special" cupcakes ...

Open Water 2: Adrift43 reviews

Great suspense on a tragic yacht trip, not bad but could have been better!..................

In the original Open Water, the film was about a couple stranded in the middle of the ocean who went deep sea diving and somehow missed the boat and ended up being stranded in the middle of nowhere whilst on vacation. The formula is now repeated in Open Water 2: Adrift. I really liked the first ...

This movie is what Mission to Mars and Red Planet should have been. What Sunshine is essentially is a disaster movie in space. Astronauts on a critical mission go through a number of catastrophies in order to survive long enough to complete said mission. While this has been done before from movies ...
