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.

Phasma Ex Machina (2010)

AKA: Ghost In the Machine

Starring: Matthew Feeney, Sasha Andreev
Director: Matt Osterman

Premise:
A young man is tries to raise his younger brother after his parents are killed in auto accident. He feels guilty and is apparently some sort of scientific genius and builds a device to break the barrier between our world and the world of the dead.

My Take:
One word. Boring.
Nothing happens for nearly an hour except the kid building the machine and not fulfilling his duties of raising his younger brother. It picks up a little in the last thirty minutes but not much. It's a decent premise that could have been so much more.
I cant recommend this one. Unless you trying to fall asleep.
