Watched Unfriended last night. Well done movie IMO. Small cast, and I think all unknowns. (Unknown to me anyway, lol.)
I can understand where the idea for the movie came from.

Watched Bone Tomahawk with Kurt Russell, Patrick Wilson, and Matthew Fox - who was near unrecognizable.
A very quirky western about a group of people kidnapped by a clan of cannibals. It takes a long time to get the horror parts but when they do, they sure don't hold back.
Worth a watch.
Kurt Russell surprised me in Grindhouse. What a character that was!I love this movie. Great dialogue and interesting characters. Kurt Russell is one of my all time favorites and I 'm glad to see him make a comeback.

I'd give it four outta five bird droppings.
Caught Suicide Squad over the weekend. It's the first DC adaptation Warner Bros has done that I had fun watching.
Okay, was Jared Leto amazing?
Wow, you figured out the ending to The Sixth Sense early? I am usually pretty good at staying ahead of the story but that one got me. Fight Club, too.I can't recall all of the movies I've watched since I last posted, but here are a few of the most recent ones:
Eye In the Sky
I admit, this was only on my watchlist because Alan Rickman was in it (not a big enough role, in my opinion. I miss him.).
I didn't love it, but I didn't feel like it was a waste of my time either.
The Gift
I didn't have as high hopes for this one, but was pleasantly surprised. The begining was so cliched I nearly turned it off, glad I stuck it out though.
The Visit
First, let me say I am a fan of M. Night, and the tralier was great, so I had very high hopes for this one (but same goes for The Happening *shudder*). I enjoyed it, not as much as I thought I would...it was very predictable and boring at times. It had a great "twist", but I figured that out within a few minutes (I also guessed the ending to The Sixth Sense very quickly and that became.a favorite).
River's Edge
This was hubby's choice. I am not a Crispin Glover fan at all so I basically slept off and on throughout the entire film.
Asylum
Cheesy "horror" that I actually liked because it cheered me up with it's corniness when I really needed a mood boost.

....Mark Hamill played the Joker???....oh hell, forgot he did the animated voice-over....Wow, I actually don't know how to answer that question, but I will give it a try. Leto was the only reason I paid money to watch this film in cinema, as I was hugely disappointed by Hack Snyder's previous two efforts. I did enjoy Leto in this film, but quite a bit of his scenes were cut so you will be left wanting more. That being said, bear in mind that this character has been around for decades, so each actor brings a different iteration. Cesar Romero was dead on for the campy 60s version in the comics, Nicholson played the classic version we all know, Mark Hamill is my favourite, and Heath Ledger was the mentally deranged (and possibly autistic) wildcard. Leto decides to bring Mr J into the contemporary world, playing him as a hip-hop gangster (I'm sorry but I refuse to use the stupidly misspelled version of that word). How much you enjoy his performance will be influenced by whether you like this interpretation, but Leto gives it his manic best.
