About the blog:

Well, hello!
Thanks for stopping by to read my opinions about movies that I see. Some are older and most are new. Some I go to see in the theaters (both live performances and movies) and some I watch from the comfort of my own couch and even more, I will watch from the amazing Netflix app.
Of course, these will be my personal thoughts about the targeted item, however, it will give you an idea of whether it's a colossal waste of time or worth a shot!

STORYLINE
Tucker and Dale versus Evil is a hilariously gory, good-sprited horror comedy, doing for killer rednecks what Shaun of the Dead did for Zombies! Tucker and Dale are two best friends on vacation at their dilapidated mountain house, when they are mistaken for backwoods murderous hillbillies by a group of obnoxious, preppy college kids. When one of the students gets separated from her friends, the boys try to lend a hand, but the misunderstanding grows, and so does the body count.

MY REVIEW:
I absolutely loved this movie!

REVIEWS
IMDB: 6.5 of 10
MY RATING: 5

STORYLINE
It's 2019 and a plague has turned almost all humans into Vampires. Faced with a dwindling blood supply, the fractured dominant race plots their survival; meanwhile, a researcher works with a cover band of vampires on a way to save humankind.

MY REVIEW:
This could have been an amazing movie. With some iffy direction and some odd casting, this went to more of a fun idea than an actual plot.

The action sequences seemed to be blocked by a thirteen year old. The characters were one sided and realistically, in some placed, cardboard cutouts could have done a better job. Completely forgettable for me.

I expected more for a vampire movie in general, but this slips into the absurd rather quickly.
