| You can watch the trailer here: http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hv&id...202&cf=trailer Anyways, I might see it. I thought the first was great (besides the laughable acting), but wasn't very fond of the sequel. Still, I might give this a shot. I'm more excited for another October horror movie: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. |

I liked the first one because of the traps. Carey Elwes acting was So-so, untill he started yelling with an accent. Other than that I thought it was a great movie. I like to see new, original stuff. Saw II was good, I didnt like that they didnt show too many traps, but I also like my backstory which that movie had. The needle pit makes up for anything bad in that movie. Thats the most original thing I have seen in a long time. Texas Chainsaw Massacre : The Beginning huh? Well I own the re-make of the first. I do like it for the new special effects and all that, but you cant beat a classic. I see someone trying to get the same success that Exorcist: The Beginning....got. What do we need to know about? Why a back woods family kills people for fun. Thats half the fun of those movies. Is not knowing why. BUT~~I like my backstory so I am sure I will be seeing that one too

Both of them totally caught me off guard. All through Saw2 I kept trying to figure out what the catch was... but I wasn't expecting that - Actually, I did see Amanda coming from a mile away, but the other plot twist got me. I thought Jigsaw died in Saw2 though.

As for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning... Yes, the subtitle is cheesy (Exorcist: The Beginning was awful) and there's not much of a story to explore (Irresponsible teens + inbred heavies = gore-filled horror), but the trailer impressed me. The cinematography seems INCREDIBLE and, you know, Leathface (and R. Lee Ermey's 'police officer') send chills down my spine... just what I want from a horror film in October. My most anticipated 2006 horror film, however, is The Wicker Man with Nicolas Cage and Ellen Burstyn. Next Friday, can't wait! | |

Saw 2 could have been alot better. BUT...I liked the back story, and getting to meet Jigsaw. I thought it was great. I really liked it. I love all movies. Comedy is on the bottom of my list. Horror on the top. 95% of the movies I own are horror. Texas Chainsaw Masscare Pre-quel doesnt float my boat. I LOVE NICOLAS CAGE...I saw National Treasure while I was pregnant, and before I picked a name for my son. My son's name is Nicolas...spelled the same. I have yet to see him in any movie and not like it. Hell I even liked Weather Man. Gore doesnt scare me. I like to see things that COULD happen to me. Yeah I might make a wrong turn on a trip through Texas and find myself mixed up with an insane family of freaks. What are the odds of that. Being locked in a room with a death trap on my face and having to cut my own face open to save my own life....SCARY. (could happen) I like thick plots and lots of back story. I like Zombie movies, but I get real mad when they skip the part about what the hell happened...... To each his own though. I'm sure I will own both Saw 3 and TCM on DVD...

| You mentioned The Weather Man. I love this movie and find it incredibly underrated. Such a brilliant, offbeat, and relatable dramedy. Nic Cage is my favorite actor. My favorite movies of his are: Adaptation., Leaving Las Vegas, Lord Of War, The Rock, and The Weather Man. He always chooses interesting projects. I love how he switches between offbeat art fare and mainstream epics. Anyways, horror is one of my favorite genres as well, along with slice-of-life drama and political thriller. My least favorite kind of movie is gross-out comedy. Humor involving feces, urine, or vomit... pass! I was disappointed by Exorcist: The Beginning. I thought it was too all-over-the-map. For the first hour, it's a slow-moving theological thriller, then, all of a sudden, it's a gorefest. I thought its 'sister movie,' Dominion: Prequel To The Exorcist, was better. I'm glad you enjoyed it though. |
