okay, so i was in the mood for some horror movies last night, so i walked to my local blockbuster and picked up two movies: the attic and cloverfield.

so, the first one I'll review is the attic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Attic_(film)
this is pretty new, it was made in 2008. there is going to be a second one, although i can't see why. even though it was supposed to be terrifying, it just dragged on and on. there was no real scare at all, just a whole bunch of the girl smashing her head into things. there is a couple of death scenes, but they all were just corny. all in all, i give this movie a 2.5 out of 10, for so many plot holes. you watch it and tell me what you thought.

the next one is cloverfield: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloverfield
well, this suprised me. i went to the movie whale it was still in theaters, but i got motion sick after a while and left. so, back to the review. well, i don't know what to say. the movie accomplished more in 85 minutes than the attic did in almost two hours. there was gore, real scares (jump scenes) and a climax to die for. (not really, but pretty close.) the parasites were awesome, and the whole thing had some pretty creepy parts to it. overall, i give this a 8.5 out of ten, just because you didn't see the chick's head explode.

so, tell me what you thought about these two movies if you want.

Cloverfield was ****ing great.

I followed the Viral marketing campaign closely from it's unveiling, and that may have effected my decision.

I still sometimes call it 1-18-08, because that was its first name.

What version of Cloverfield were you watching? I got a perfect view of the girl's head explode, thought it would give the movie an R rating.

was it behind a tent? it was the theater version. otherwise, it would probably be unrated.

No, it was on TV... and it might have been the unrated version, I don't know


the blood was all over the walls

Jesus Christ, no you didn't.

the attic is a 2006 film, not 2008.

and the name alone makes it sound like a shitty generic horror film.

Just seen cloverfield, it was pretty good.

Cloverfield was ****ing awesome. Haven't seen the attic and probably wont either.

Cloverfield was ok but the ending is terrible.

The ending was awesome. I'd hate it if all of them survived. Except I'd like to know what happened to the monster and shit.

But now with the sequel we probably will.

it would have been pretty unrealistic if they lived.

Yea the city was being ****ed bombed.

Cloverfield was alright, I liked the camera prospective. Haven't seen the Attic.


I was so happy when Hud died. NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM
