Lee Cronin's The Mummy
★★★½ Watched

This was fine. Not what I was expecting. It's really closer to an Evil Dead movie than a traditional Mummy movie. So I was a little disappointed, because we don't get many Mummy movies. Although as an Evil Dead film, it's decent. Lots of gore and demonic possessions. It's a little long and probably would have been better if they trimmed about 20 minutes. It's not bad. Not as good as Evil Dead Rise. But if you enjoyed that, then you'll probably enjoy this too.

If Wishes Could Kill
★★★½ Watched

This was pretty good. It's basically a typical Asian "cursed object" supernatural teen horror flick that's been stretched out to 6 hours. I don't mind the longer runtime, because it has a charming cast and moves along at a decent pace. But you've seen it all before in movies like "Whistle", "Countdown", "Wish Upon", "Polaroid", "Tarot", "Truth or Dare", "Stay Alive", "The Ring", "One Missed Call", etc. If you liked those movies, you'll probably enjoy this too.

Phenomena
★★★½ Watched

I really enjoyed this one. It was a fun popcorn horror flick with spooky atmosphere and some good jump scares. The ending could have been better, but it was fine. I had a great time watching it, and I hope they do a sequel.

Killer Book Club
★★★ Watched

I love teen slasher flicks. So I enjoyed this. It looks great, has some cool locations, a likeable cast, and decent kill scenes. But every scene is blatantly ripped off from one of the Scream or IKWYDLS movies. Nothing's surprising, because you've seen it all before. Honestly, it's almost plagiarism. Despite that, I had fun watching it. I like the Scream films and all the Scream rip-offs. So if you're a fan of modern teen slashers, give it a shot. Just don't expect too much.
