Testament (1983)

The most realistic and horrifying of its type

[10/10 · 1 July 1999]

If you want to know what the aftermath of nuclear war would truly be like, watch this movie. There are no scenes of wild chaos, no clinical views of ground zero, just the blinding flash seen from the living room of a fairly typical family and the quiet slow death that comes afterward. The result is a movie far more horrifying than any I have seen dealing with this subject. Very intense, emotionally overwhelming, highly recommended. (I voted it a score of 10.)

Se7en (1995)

Really good movie with a weak ending

[6/10 · 2 February 1999]

Very good "on-the-edge-of-your-seat" thriller that unfortunately suffers from a predictable ending. This one does have one of the best "scream-scenes" that I have seen in a very long time. Worth watching.

Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1986)

This is a scary one!

[10/10 · 2 February 1999]

Not your typical "slasher" film, this one doesn't try to be stylish and is more frightening perhaps because of this. Lots of graphic violence, and an unexpected ending(?).
