  1. Are you referring to the creatures that evolved out of humans on the ship? Because the premise beyond that has nothing in common with The Time Machine.

    I have a few overflow from my queue that I didn't get to before Hallows Eve.

    Dark Shadows (2012)

    The combo of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp turns Barnabas Collins into a p****. Maybe he always has been? Couldn't tell ya, a bit before my time. Eva Green is so freaking hot in this red dress, though, she makes up for it.

    Barnabas Collins was seldom a p****.
    Johnny Depp was never Barnabas Collins.

    The Poughkeepsie Tapes (2007)

    Shelved for 10 years, this found footage movie was considered too shocking to be viewed until now. Although there is a sense of dread when the killer is on screen, the shaky footage is annoying yet again. More things are implied than actually seen and you don't know if the "professional" interviewees, in this after the fact "documentary", are supposed to be serious because some of them are pretty funny.

    This is not the most horrific "torture porn" movie that I've seen by no means, but like all of the ones that I have seen, this has no redeeming qualities at all.
     
  8. Easily the most disturbing movie I've ever reviewed was Atroz, a vile piece of truly underground Mexican horror. It was made for people that thought Hostel was a tame walk in the park and needed something gorier.

    It is not for the faint of heart and only the most jaded, desensitized horror nuts will be able to stomach it.

    Yeah, that's not for me. When I researched The Poughkeepsie Tapes I found the most controversial scenes on youtube and paid close attention to the violence being suggested, rather than seen, before deciding to watch it. I once got on a kick to watch some of the most disturbing movies ever made and got recommendations from posters, in another forum. I watched about two and called it quits. It's really not my cup of tea.

    My research did peak my interest in The Bunny Game, which (I guess) is a movie where one victim is rung through the ringer for the entire film. I decided against watching it because the scenes I was able to find were filmed in some sort of hyper-kinetic, music video fashion that one youtube reviewer (some English chap in a horror clown mask) said detracts even more to an already un-enjoyable film.

    My last film of the season was Nurse (2013).

    Staring Paz de la Huerta (who I am convinced gets roles solely on her ability to be naked rather than act), this movie starts out strong with sexy dark humor but leads to a convoluted mess that is way to unbelievable to get any type of reprieve. No thumbs.
