The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

V/H/S/ Viral (2104)

Starring: Gary Bales, Emilia Ares Zoryan, Jusstin Welborn, Emmy Argo, Nick Blanco
Director: Marcel Sarmiento, Gregg Bishop, Nacho Vigalondo, Aaron Moorehead, Justin Benson,

Premise: An anthology of horror stories.

"Vicious Circles" - The wrap around episode where a teenagers chased down a van who kidnapped his girlfriend and finds a cyber nightmare.

"Dante the Great" - A magician gets his power from an evil cloak

"Parallel Monsters" - A scientist opens a doorway to a parallel universe which seems identical to his own. The truth is far more frightening.

"Bonestorm" - A group of skateboarding teens must fight black magic and zombies when they go skating in the wrong park.

My Take:
I enjoy this sequel better than the last one. The only tale I didn't really care for was the wrap around. The twist in "Parallel Monsters" is one that as to be seen. "Bonestorm" fells like a live action video game. And "Dante" was my favorite of the bunch.

Rating: In the middle
