Here's the latest list of flicks I have seen. Some actually really good ones. Make sure you check them out. Hit me with a comment on any of these with your opinions or movies you think I would like. For some of these the less I wrote means the more I liked them and didn't want to give anything away. Thanks!

Carriers – Well... this movie is friggin’ depressing. There is one part where I actually teared up. Even thinking of it now is giving me a lump in my throat. Now this part to normal people I’m sure won’t make you think the way I do. And I’m not going to go into detail about it, but it was difficult for me to watch. The movie in a whole is pretty good; I mean it’s entertaining enough to keep you watching. But if you are like me I ALWAYS put myself into the movie and with this one... no thank you. Feeling alone like that would be worse than death.

ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction – Not a lot I can say about this one. It’s along the same vein of “Shaun of the Dead”. You have a zombie/comedy. It’s pretty funny. Kinda a kool concept with it being a terror type attack. In my opinion, there is no such thing as a bad zombie movie. The cheesier the better I say!

Someone’s Knocking At The Door – Now this one was wild man. It’s a totally throw back to the old grindhouse flicks. It’s in and out, you honestly feel like you are on drugs while you are watching this movie. What’s real? What’s not? WHO KNOWS! I don’t even know if this film is out yet. I got a copy passed along to me, so I checked it out. It’s not bad. The start is kinda slow and it almost lost me. Just as I was about to turn it off it started getting better. The sound editing is off. The music is too loud; there are sections where I couldn’t hear the dialog. Which might have been what the director was going for, OR it is simply an unmastered copy that ended up in my hands. It’s worth watching, but it’s very weird... I want to say it’s original, but like I said it’s really got the old gore flavour.
Wiki: None yet.

Push – I know that this came out last year, and I hummed and hawed about watching it. I wish I hadn’t waited. I love movies like this. Ones where there are people with powers and abilities that are way kooler than what we got going on. Plus it has a 15 year old Dakota Fanning and the dude that played the Human Torch. I suggest if you like movies like X-men or movies with a lot of twists and turns, check this one out. I really enjoyed it.

Alien Abduction Incident in Lake County – So... if you watch the trailer, it’s more of a documentary on the actual footage. So this is what’s up with this flick. There was a home movie that... may or may not show an actually alien abduction. The version I watched is a recreation of it. I’m going to try to find the original one to watch. There is a lot of speculation on if it’s real or not. I guess that really ends on what you believe. The clips in the “trailer” seem more realistic and that’s why I want to check it out. I believe there are things out there that we can’t explain. Check it out... and if you have an original copy, please hook me up.

The Midnight Meat Train – Great little gore flick. Huge twist at the end, which I still don’t really get but it’s pretty awesome. Great story, lots of blood and guts, and that’s what I like. LOL. Honestly if you like horror you will enjoy this one. Fight fans watch for an appearance of Rampage Jackson!

Grown Ups – This is probably one of the best “friends” comedies in years. The whole time all I could think about was how much this movie is like me and my friends from back home. Literally that’s what we do. We sit around poking fun at each other and remembering the good ol’ days. Plus as much as I like Sandler’s new batch of dramedies, but this one has none of that really heartfelt want to cry your eyes out stuff. It’s a great one to watch with a group of your closest friends.

The A-Team – I liked this one. It’s got a lot of action in it and its super funny. I thought Rampage Jackson did a really good in it. The one guy... I can’t remember his name (I never watched the TV show), but he’s the crazy guy. Man was he funny.

The Shortcut – This was alright. It’s the first flick from “Happy Madison’s” new branch called “Scary Madison”. The story is done by the guys that did Granma’s Boy (awesome movie). So I was a little nervous about how good a horror movie would be by them. It was well done. Good story, little cheesy, but all in all decent.

Knight and Day – I’m not a fan of Tom Cruise, but this was pretty good. There are some pretty funny parts and some good action sequences. Still not a fan of Tom Cruise. LOL.

Predators – I’m a huge fan of this series and I was a little nervous when I heard that Adrien Brody was in it. I didn’t see him as an action star... and I still don’t. I found him annoying. He kept talking all low like a “bad ass”. It reminded me Christian Bale in the batman movies. Now since I am such a big fan I’ll say it was good, but it wasn’t as good as the rest of the saga.

Date Night – This was hilarious. Tina Fey is freaking hilarious. The bonus features are the funniest part of the flick. That and Steve with his issues with Mark Walburg. Just watch it you will laugh.

The Book of Eli – Pretty sweet. I won’t ruin it, but it’s worth watching. The messages that are throughout the movie are spot on. I’m sure that most people won’t get it.
