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.

The Collection (2012)

Starring: Josh Stewart, Lee Tergesen, Emma Fitzpatrick, Andre Royo, Chris McDonald
Director: Marcus Dunstan

Premise:
The lone survivor from a serial killer known as "The Collector" is forced to join a group of bounty hunters to rescue his latest victim.

My Take:
While the original was a interesting and fairly unique the sequel is one of the most terrible pieces of garbage I have witnessed in quite some time. It looks rushed together and feels incomplete. I'm not sure how much of the story ended up on the cutting room floor, but the story seems like a bunch of chunks of knowledge were missing. Throw in the over the top, non-stop action scenes and gore sequences which baffle me (not in a good way) and I barely made it through the movie. Good luck watching it.
