Easily the weirdest film I have ever watched, and coming from me that means a lot! As a horror film it’s terrible but if you pick some of the better shorts it has some clever and thought provoking stuff. In others you get shorts which will bring side splitting laughs. Then you get boring wastes of my time, about 50% I would say. The scoring is always weird on anthologies, so I tried to mark all of the shorts as one rather than marking each. Just because overall the stories are weak doesn’t mean there aren’t a few gems which I will highlight later. I nearly couldn’t watch all of this and would love to know if anyone else managed to see the whole movie in one sitting, anyone?

Not sure how to say this but erm…Terrible. Felt like I needed a bullet to the head after watching this. Yes got to use that line, makes me very happy. If this month was the battle between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone, Arnold won in style. Alright let’s list this off, non-existent story. Acting? Nope not here there isn’t. Nothing special in the visuals. Dialogue? Ahahahahaha this is a film that decided to let Stallone narrate, I can barely understand 1 in 5 words the man speaks. The action was so predictable I was getting flash backs from all the 80’s films I have seen. No style, just rock music and ridiculous deep voices. Can’t remember any of the characters names nor do care. This film is so bad in every category it’s hard not to laugh with tears the whole way through.

Resident Evil Retribution (2012) Review

This was bad, if I had a worst case scenario going into watching this film, I’d have to say they got it pretty damn close. The story was non-existent and felt like I was watching multi-level on a game, though funnily enough not a Resident Evil game. Then the acting was even worse, never been remotely good in any of the films but it was particularly bad in this film. The visuals where actually pretty good in this film, however it must be noted that it’s all CGI and green screen. I am so happy I didn’t pay to see this in 3D. The best dialogue was from the deaf girl and the less said about the others the better. I will admit it is an action film but I will damned if it is a horror film! The first could have that genre title but every other are not horror films. This film is just terrible and everybody involved should be ashamed.

The Man with the Iron Fists (2012) Review

The Man with the Iron Fist was fun enough and the visuals where good and paid tribute to classic Kung Fu films. But the music didn’t work, just didn’t suit the film at all, worked in the trailers but was just wrong in the full film. Whilst we are in the bad section RZA is a terrible actor and really shouldn’t have played the lead or even be in it, he took the wrong notes from Tarantino. The story however was pretty weak but fun enough. Back to the bad Russell Crowe played the most fowl mercenary that has ever played the role; he also put a few pounds on, super creepy and weird sex scenes, and ewe. The characters can be good at times but mostly stupid with near no memorable lines. The only distinctive features of the characters would be their costume designs, I did like the different types of warriors they used for the film, felt like a Mortal Kombat style fights.

This is my list of the worst films released in 2012 that I had the misfortune to watch. I really enjoyed making my top ten list, but now it’s time for my worst of list and I really hate making almost as much as watching the films on it. You might want to read my full reviews because I have heard my reviews of terrible films can be quite funny, my angry nature as I write about them must clearly bring tears to people’s eye. If anyone disagrees then you can just bugger off, otherwise please enjoy. Next post will be my favourite B movies of 2012 so keep an eye out.

Congo (1995) Review

I watched ‘Congo’ this weekend because I remember reading a bit of the book after reading Jurassic Park and thought well maybe the film is pretty good, never seeing a trailer, never read any reviews so I had no clue what was actually coming. Never before have I seen a film that is both terrible and at the same time gives so much to talk about, normally a bad film is boring or lacks good story telling and so there’s not much to say but not with this film there is plenty. This is a summary so will quickly go through my thought and then you can read my more in depth thoughts. Story, never before has loosely based on the book been so true. Acting was surprisingly bad considering some of the stars. Visuals were terrible in general but mainly those ‘Bad Gorillas’ were just awful! Dialogue, best lines came from a gorilla using sign language. Shock/Thrill/Fun, we shall have none of it in our film! Style/Sound, no style and the soundtrack seemed a little random to me. Characters, they seemed to only have cheap lines and scenes that suited the story, most of the characters have about one line in the whole film and absolutely nothing memorable.

This film is exactly the thing I hate about false trailers, they lie! If you lie to me then you are automatically my enemy (just for anyone who lies to me). The trailer actually looked really interesting and I nearly went to cinema to watch it. However the trailer contained a few features that where completely missing from the actual film. Not going into what those things where but it really made me angry. The film is also very boring, which considering the idea behind it is not only shocking but also unforgivable. The film bores and angers me and is the reason I very rarely review films I don’t like. I manly don’t like to give them the time of day but since I watched this anyway for Halloween I thought why not. Oh I am not looking forward to this review.

Since the ‘Expendables 2’ is coming out next month I thought it would be fun to do ‘the best of’ for the three biggest action stars, done Schwarzenegger a while ago and will link that below, a couple of weeks ago I did Willis’s best films and now I am doing Stallone’s best films and worst because I am not a huge fan of his. Just to point out that Stallone is a terrible actor and this list is so small that I am even including two of his films that I don’t like because it’s relevant to another release (Dredd). I haven’t actually watched a great deal of his films but apparently everything that isn’t part one of the series below is awful (well three other films that are apparently good but I haven’t seen them), cant verify that but I don’t particular like his work so I won’t be paying to see his worst (worst list not going to happen just this post).

Not sure why Guy Pierce felt this film would be a good idea, I do feel that if they made some changes and increased the budget it could have been a much better film. However this film did do very well and feels like a budget B movie with Guy Pierce. It’s not a bad action film but it is easily forgettable. If you want to watch a film with no brains, some decent action scenes and good humour from its lead Guy Pierce.
