Even if I find the protagonists actions sometimes to be a bit too stupid and nonsensical, I do appreciate and understand the will of spending your probably last moments on Earth with your loved ones, I like how it's hopeful at first and turns into a nigthmare at the end

Had conflicting thoughts about the ending when I first watched it, but it kinda makes sense in the grand scheme of things and didn't deter my overall opinion on the film, which is very powerful and at times moving and has an incredible performance by Michael Shannon.

Hated this almost from the beginning, it's incredible how ugly looking this is, both animation-wise and how fake it feels. Tons of unmemorable and meaningless cameos and references serving only to signify Warner Bros. bragging about owning them.

Totally unrelated to the Michael Myers franchise, but still a fun and very gruesome unofficial entry in the series, I wasn't expecting it to have such a dark twist and a memorable final act.

I love how a regular 70s giallo can have some of the bloodiest and goriest scenes, like when a guy gets thrown off a cliff and his face is mauled by the rocks as they're falling. Interesting presentation, although the English dubbing wasn't great.

Felt like watching a fucked up version of The Goonies, but with more social commentary about gentrification. Loved how they built the house with all the nooks and crannies, all the maze etc, looked like a haunted mansion.

I fully understand now why this film has been hyped so much over the years, it's a grim and dark detective story that grips you from start until the very last second before the end credits roll, with an increasing sense of uneasiness and tension.

I still prefer Poor Things or The Favourite over this, but it's still a really satisfying, funny and bleak movie. Jesse Plemons plays the crazy conspirator really well, and even if the ending doesn't come off as too much of a surprise it still elicits a good laugh.

I love when a monster/horror movie has characters dying in the most gruesome ways. I also like how it defies expectations for characters you're rooting for and dying at the mercy of an unstoppable alien force. Fantastic special effects by Tony Gardner on the blob monster.

Reminded me of the "Twilight Zone" film, but this is ultimately better: great episodes overall, some really nasty and gory (thanks to Tom Savini's special effects), others pretty funny (who knew Stephen King could be a credible hillbilly?)

A slow neo-noir western with vampires, essentially. Honestly a bit boring, and I don't know if it was because of the two characters being in love with one another but also kind of amateur-ish, the not-so-great direction. One thing for certain is that Bill Paxton rules.

The movie itself was kind of a mess, due to production troubles and a lot of scenes being cut so that the continuity didn't work very well, but it works nonetheless! Very atmospheric thanks also to Tangerine Dream's score, but also it makes some sense in a way.

The movie is not officially out, it got leaked before its official presentation at Venice Film Festival. Still a really embarrassing attempt at trying to tell a story around Dante, at times it felt like watching a fake parody. Laughably bad, very wasted cast.

The title alone should've been enough of a suggestion to not watch this, but I caved anyway, and in the end it's really just a mess of a movie, jumping from various subplots without developing them properly. Nonsense, unfunny, but Chris Evans in a jockstrap is ok.
