get rid of one missed call, not worth your money! the others are all good.

nouou · 08-25-2008, 05:55 AM

Yeah I wasn't sure about that one, was looking to add more horror titles to my initial collection, thought that'd be decent.

Minimejer05 · 08-25-2008, 05:56 AM

Replace One Missed Call with The Devils Rejects. Also..add Sunshine to the list!

I think you should replace it with like the person above me said "The Devil's Rejects", The Descent, 28 weeks later, or 30 days of night.

dj02bothell · 08-25-2008, 06:04 AM

another horror movie i wanted to mention...The Orphanage is another great one btw

+1 for 30 Days of Nights. One missed call isn't worth a buy.

-1 for 30 Days of Night... awful movie.

Get Sunshine or 28 Weeks Later or something like that instead.

In my review of 'One Missed Call' I had this to say...

Quote:

I would have rather spent my hour and a half humouring a telemarketer trying to pedal European backpacking trips through some of the most remote hostels on the planet!

And this...

Quote:

Avoid this title like the plague. Be it the Blu-ray version OR the DVD release. As the Blu-ray offers nothing good in the way of a movie, poor video quality, good audio quality that is pointless without the afore mentioned elements to back it up, and no extra features whatsoever to help in trying to explain the meaning of this travesty, I can’t imagine that the DVD has much to offer either. There is nothing in it to be gained by viewers. It’s not even worth renting.

the lost boys for a horror movie... classic

add Cars, and Ratatouille!

Yessir! Anything by Pixar... Make sure you get Casino Royale and the Spider-Man trilogy.
Oh, and Planet Earth is stunning!

SS316SRV · 08-25-2008, 01:17 PM

A good change of pace movie is Stranger than Fiction. Enchanted is a suprisingly entertaining film as well.

Careful with Casino Royale. The American and British Blu-Rays are censored to get more commercial ratings.

Agree with this assessment. All of the films you ordered are really good, but One Missed Call is pretty bad.

MOONPHASE · 08-25-2008, 11:33 AM

i dont even have any desire to watch One Missed Call because it doesnt even look enjoyable. how that movie made it to movie theaters i have no idea because it shouldnt even been made in the 1st place. And besides a movie being called One Missed Call? Such a terrible name for a movie because a name like that wouldnt even draw me in of even wanting to watch it

MOONPHASE · 08-25-2008, 01:18 PM

Resident Evil Trilogy and Mr. Brooks
