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 Fourth Man (1983)

Starring: Jeroen Krabbe, Renee Soutendijik
Director: Paul Verhoeven

Premise:
An author often has visions of his own death. He meets a woman who may be the catalyst for the visions coming true. As he starts finding out more about the woman he finds out her last three boyfriends ended up dead.

My Take:
An slow moving but rather intriguing flick that contains a lot of boundary pushing sexual ideas, at least for when it was released, which content makes it for not all viewers. A beautifully shot film with lots of odd imagery.

Rating: In the middle

Watched: Netflix DVD
