BATMAN

Batman is my favorite super hero, so of course I need to talk about all of the Batman movies.

The old Batman movies, directed by Tim Burton, are more comical and fantasy-like. It takes on a very colorful and incredibly cheesy version of Batman. My favorite out of the four movies is Batman Returns. I absolutely love the penguin and cat woman. Michelle Phiffer is an incredible actor. She is much better than Halley Berry. Sorry, getting off topic. I think it is a really interesting take on how messed up the penguin is. It's so funny too!

Where as the new Batman trilogy is very dark and serious. But it is so... Detailed, and thorough. They had such a huge budget that they went all out. And it was an amazing product in the end. Bane, in the third movie, gives me chills. His voice, his muscles, his everything is so perfect. If you haven't seen these movies... You are deemed a loser in my book.

Elvira

This movie is hilarious!!! I think I have fallen in love with it. 
Elvira is a movie host for a horror channel. She hates her job and quits to move to Las Vegas to start her own show. But the producers call and say they need $50,000 to start the show. She freaks out because she doesn't have that kind of money. 
Out of no where her Great Aunt that she has never met dies and has left something for her in the will. She prays and prays that its money. Instead she gets an old creaky house and a poodle. But the house comes along with some surprises, like that she is a decedent  from a Witch and is herself a witch.
It gets super crazy and the effects they used in the old days will make you laugh so hard! Its on Netflix so watch it!

Sinister

Brutal horror movie. BRUTAL. If you're looking for something to make you pee your pants... this would be the movie. The producer of Paranormal Activities and Insidious finally redeemed himself. Everyone knows how much I hate that movie... so I was a bit skeptical before I saw this movie. Man... I was WRONG.
The plot is actually quite genius. This writer and his family, a wife, a boy, and a girl, move into a house that was previously a murder scene. A whole family "hung" themselves on the tree in the back yard, except for the youngest daughter. She disappeared. This writer wants to solve the mystery of her disappearance and murder. As he starts to explore the house he finds old film and a film projector. As he watches these "home made movies," he realizes that what he is watching is the last moments of many different families lives ending. Each of those families that died, is missing a child. and out of the corner of every movie he sees this face. Once you see that face... You will be next.

The L Word

For those of you don't know, I am openly gay. So I think you can assume what this T.V. show is, but I'll tell you anyway. It's about a tight knit group of lesbians and their lives in California. In every single episode there is some sort of drama. Like in the last couple episodes I just watched Tina and Bette, a lesbian couple that have been together for 7 years, try to get pregnant with invetro-fertilization, but after only 12 weeks she has a miscarriage. This causes Tina, the one who was pregnant, to pull away from Bette. Bette then looks for companionship in a carpenter working on the art gallery she owns. She cheats and its this huge fight happens. Then the episode ends.
I stayed up till 5:30 in the morning yesterday to finish the first season because I couldn't stop watching it. I am an addict and I recommend you watch this if you have Netflix. :O

Hansel and Gretel

Terrible movie. Terrible, terrible, terrible. The plot sucks asshole (sorry for the vivid imagery and profanity). Its about two pathetically hot twins named hansel and Gretel. They get kidnapped by the obvious and stupid witch. She is crazy very unoriginal. She has her twin boys, that look like there out of a wrong turn movie, murder and grill people to eat.
It's just stupid. The only reason I would say to watch it is because the gore is very original and believable.

The Walking Dead.

Yes, I know this is not a movie, but I need to tell you how much I LOVE it. This is one of the most violent, sexual, and de-sensitizing shows I have seen on T.V. There have been 3 seasons so far... and I have watched every single episode because it is so good. This T.V. show is about a group of people struggling to survive in a post-apocalyptic zombie world. They have had to deal with watching family members getting ripped apart alive, a pregnancy that ended in death, a crazy dictator called the Governor who tried to kill them multiple times, and of course the mental illnesses that come along with all of that. It is going to be a hard 6 months until season 4 starts...
Season one and two are on Netflix, and season three will join them soon. WATCH THEM!

Silent Hill 1 and 2.

Silent Hill was originally a video game that they made into a movie. One of the best ideas a person could have. The first movie is incredible. It's story line is the trippiest one I have ever seen. The way the film is acted out made me fall in love with it. The town, Silent Hill, was considered damned because of the people inhabiting it, and underneath the dirt it is on fire and deemed unsafe. If I really wanted to tell you the whole story line... I could go on for days.
The second Silent Hill... TERRIBLE. Don't waste your time on this. I only watched 30 minutes of it and I was confused and bored.
Just watch Silent Hill 1. If you are into thrillers and horror movies, you will love this movie I promise.
