Cronenberg 2.0 rocks.

I watched the Uncut version which was gory glory that I have come to expect to from a Cronenberg film. I am so glad Brandon is taking it to a new level. Throw in some sex scenes that were not needed and it is pure fun.

Christopher Abbott was so good in this one and I didn't even recognize Jennifer Jason Leigh who rocked.

Andrea Riseborough brought a creepiness to the role.

Very slow and low-key.

Longlegs
★★★★ Liked Watched

I was pleasantly surprised at this flick. I had no idea what the flick was about other than Nicky was in it.

Halfway thru I forgot that Nicky was in the movie until my wife pointed out who he was. I never saw it and still didn't believe her until I really listened.

Maika Monroe was mesmerizing in a weird way, which I loved.

Alicia Witt was stellar as well.

I feel that there is much more story that could be worked into this.

April Fool's Day
★★★★ Liked Rewatched

I love April Fool's Day.

This movie has a creepy feel about it.

Light on gore, there is a ton of suspense.

Deborah Foreman invites a bunch of college friends to her remote island mansion, where they are constantly playing jokes on each other until the attendees begin to disappear.

Amy Steel and Deborah Goodrich (who really heats up the screen whenever she was on it) are the best.

The end is great.

This remake actually works. I was prepared to dislike it as I really enjoyed the original with Noomi Rapace, but Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig did an amazing job. Loaded with some great actors this version did a very nice job of pacing. A brutal thriller, that has some very graphic elements attached to it. I loved the Bryan Ferry song that ran at the end of the credits, "Is Your Love Strong Enough". I originally heard that in Legend and it is a fantastic song.
