Movie Review: Wrong Turn 4 & 5

Killing two birds with one stone in this review.

Wrong turn 4 & 5 review

The horror genre is so over populated that it can be hard to stand out. In a sea of psychopaths and serial killers, The horror genre can feel more 'been there done that' at times. Enter the wrong turn franchise, particularly wrong turn: 4 bloody beginnings and wrong turn 5: bloodlines. These films follow the murderous beginnings of our favourite inbred cannibals(who look more like orcs from lord of the rings if you ask me) ; one eye, three finger and saw tooth. From their escape and hostile takeover of the mental asylum as seen in wrong turn 4, to hunting people down at the annual mountain man festival in wrong turn 5. though the plots are extremely formulaic and stock standard, wrong turn 4 and 5 are not without moments of gory charm.
Wether you're a fan of detailed sex scenes or have a bit of bloodlust, wrong turn 4 and 5 will satisfy. However, if gripping story lines with interesting characters and plot twists are more your flavour, then look elsewhere. Put simply, wrong turn 4 and 5 are your standard slasher flicks that are lost at sea with many others. It's a no frills gore ride that just is what it is.

Score : 2 out of 5

Movie Review: Creature

That's right, i now do movie reviews! lets get right to it!

Creature review

When it comes to films, I never really have strong feelings towards them be it for or against, I see them for what they are. Though recently, one film made me change my tune. with nothing to do late on a Saturday night, i turned to a film I'd never heard of, 2011 horror flick 'creature' hoping to be pleasantly surprised. what I got was beyond my comprehension. The film opens with some good old fashioned nudity as a young girl takes a quick dip in her local swamp.. (Yes that's right). Blissfully unaware of the surrounding Bacteria, this brave young lady gracefully frolics in the murky water... Until her legs are torn off by an alligator. The generic horror plot ensues when a group of teen... Ish people take a road trip to Louisiana and hear of the local legend of 'lockjaw', a half man, half alligator thing that is said to haunt the swamps. As if that didn't have the makings of a B movie already, the plot takes several ridicules turns, relying on various sex scenes and even turns to incest to build the suspense.... (I wish I was making that up). The antagonist, lockjaw, looks like something off power rangers, in fact he seems to be a rip off of the lockjaw character from the he man cartoon and is about as frightening as the cheap rubber suit that the actor who playes him so proudly dawns. As you would expect, most of the main cast tragicly die in a series of low budget fight scenes with incredibly cheesy effects. The fact that I'm spending time reviewing this film is a true testament to how god awful it was. The only thing about creature that will keep you up at night is wondering why the hell it was made in the first place.

Score: 1 out of 5

breathing is overrated

fast forward to early 2013 now with this short but powerful little number.

Suffocating under thoughts of you

The fake smiles withhold the truth, I'm screaming inside, made to suffer, The Wounds still bare your name.
Searching for freedom I stand my ground but within my restless mind
lies your face, Leaving me breathless

Short story: The Room

This is my first short story in a very long time. It's based loosely on a dream I had.
The room
I come towards an old wooden door, Rotten and weather warn. the paint all but stripped away. what was left had turned a faint blue almost grey colour. Light seeped out from under the door. Slowly, I open the door. I walk into the room, empty except for a full length mirror hanging from the wall. My footsteps echo as I walk towards the mirror. Cautiously I stare into it, seeing only my reflection. I run my hand across my cheek as I stare back at myself. The sound of music now fills the air, a hauntingly soothing melody. I turn my head swiftly in search of it's source but find nothing, I'm all alone.
My heart beats faster. Slowly I move away from the mirror when Seemingly out of nowhere, i see something out of the corner of my eye, a figure. It was a woman. She stood static, her eyes empty and lifeless yet she smiled. A sharp chill ran through my body, the room grew cold. The music that filled the air now plays faster as the woman takes a step. I back away as she moves closer, My heart races. Step by step she draws closer, her face begins to change, manifesting itself into something more morbid. Im frozen in terror. Suddenly the music stops, the room turns black, I wake.

size dosn't matter

a very short yet sweet poem i wrote up in 2012. very dark tranquility inspired.

State of nothingness
Implosion of the heart leaves a gaping void, a hollow existence, state of sinking, desire devours the soul. Embodiment of sadness, the burden shrouding my perception, Senses fall to misery

the return...

wow it has been some time since i've been back here but here i am! hopefully bigger and better than ever. much has gone on over the past 2 years which has led to countless times of inspiration. i shall be posting my latest pieces very soon.. stay tuned!
