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.

Hitchcock (2012)

Starring: Anthony Hopkins, Helen Mirren, Jessica Biel, Scarlett Johannson
Director: Sacha Gervasi

Premise:
The aging director searches for his next movie to film. He chooses a book called "Psycho" which no studio wants to make. Hitchcock and his wife put their own money into the film and in the process change horror cinema.

My Take:
A look inside the relationship between the legendary director and his wife Alma (played by legendary actors themselves) and not a lot into the director's process. Still it's a good flick to set back a gain a little insight on one of the best directors of all time and his most controversial film.

Rating: So Good
