Alien Vs. Predator


Tagline: Whoever wins... We lose.

When this movie first came out I really wanted to go see it at the theatre, because I am a fan of both franchises, but I never got around to it. Even though this film stars a bunch of new actors that many people don't really know it's still good. During an archaeological expedition in Antartica, a team of archaeologists and other scientists find themselves caught up in a battle between the two species. Soon they all realize that only one species can win or they will all die. This movie has great special effects and acion sequences, and I highly recommend this movie even if you haven't ever seen any of the Alien or Predator films. To bad there is no battle between Sigourney Weaver and Arnold Schwarzenegger, that would of made it even better.

From Dusk Till Dawn - A Vampire Classic


Tagline: Vampires. No Interviews.

This movie came out back in 1996, but I watched it the other day and it's a great movie so I thought I would review it. This film stars George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino as Seth and Richard Gecko, two criminals who have just committed a bloody bank robbery. The two brothers take a priest (Harvey Keitel) and his family hostage, to take them to Mexico, where they must meet the local kingpin at a bar (The Titty Twister) to pay him off. Once they arrive at the bar they realize that these are not you normal Mexicans, but vampires. They now must all work together, to fight to stay alive.

"White Noise"- Batman Returns???


When I seen the trailer to this movie for the first time I was a bit skeptical, But when I seen it again I thought it might be half good. I've sat through worse movies in my life so I thought I would give it a shot. The upside to this movie was the return of Michael Keaton who plays Johnathan Rivers a successful architect, who later finds out his wife, author Anna River (Chandra West) has died. During his mourning he is approached by a man named Raymond Price (Ian McNeice) that tells him his dead wife is contacting him, through EVP (Electric Voice Phenomena). I highly recommend this movie for a good edge of your seat Thriller/Horror. And to answer my own question, Batman Returns! "Mr. Keaton, Welcome Back, We've Missed You".
