Movie Review: Cupid

Netflix Synopsis:

1997 R 95 minutes

Jennifer (Ashley Laurence) develops a huge crush on her handsome co-worker Eric (Zach Galligan), but he turns out to be a murderous psycho who secretly ruins her life while trying to determine whether or not she's the perfect woman for him. Meanwhile, Dana (Mary Crosby), Eric's demented sister and former lover, tries to rekindle their incestuous relationship by driving a wedge between him and the new object of his affection.

Meagan’s Rating: 2 Stars

Very V.C. Andrews in plot, the most disappointing part of the movie was they did not even accurately portray the myth of Cupid and Psyche. Worth watching if you like Thrillers and are bored, otherwise, the plot was predictable, the character shallow, and although twisted, the ending was no surprise.

Movie Review: Ghost Game

 

Netflix Synopsis:

2004 NR 72 minutes

Killing time inside a mountain retreat, three vacationing couples dig up a dusty board game in the cellar with a mysteriously spooky title -- Ghost Game -- that's far too intriguing to pass up. Little do they know that opening up the tantalizing box will release the spirit of three murdered witches and put all of their lives in danger. Can these reluctant players unlock the game's ancient secrets before they fall victim to its power?

 

Meagan’s Rating: 2 Stars

This is the perfect horror movie if you're looking for a cheesy plot with a ton of laughs, D rate acting, and a budget that seems to have run out at the end, since there really isn't an "ending" to the film.

The only redeeming quality of this movie, is it will be added to my “make-out” movie list – you know, the list of movies you can make-out with someone too because you don’t give a shit if you miss them or not!!

Movie Review: The Possession of David O’Reilly

 

Netflix Synopsis:

2010 NR 85 minutes

After fighting with his unfaithful girlfriend, David O'Reilly (Giles Alderson) storms out of their apartment and seeks refuge with married friends Kate (Zoe Richards) and Alex (Nicholas Shaw). But as time passes, they discover that the haunted David is lying about exactly what troubles him. As unexplainable events overwhelm them, Kate and Alex realize that David is a magnet for supernatural forces, and they are forced to fight for their lives.

 

Meagan’s Rating: 3 Stars

For a B rated movie I LOVED IT! The plot is original, and a completely new concept in supernatural horror movies, it keeps you guessing until the end, and although there are some scenes that are left unexplained, it also leaves a lot open to the imagination - which is always fun when it comes to scary movies.
