Check Out Trailer For ‘The Walking Dead’ Season 3


walking dead season 3
I so cannot wait for the new season to start. ‘The exploration of the prison compound and the discovery of the not so utopian community should give more drama and undead than last season, which even though I watched with glutinous desire, was a bit lacking in the zombification of all than season one. However the tension and drama between the characters rocked. Check out the trailer for below for the third season below.

My Review Of “Crowsnest” 2012



“Crowsnest” is a found footage cannibal/ survival flick. It pits an unlucky group of friends, leaving the city for a weekend trip to the wilderness, against homicidal maniacs. The group decide to take a small detour which proves fatal. The film was directed by Brenton Spencer. The movie stars Mittita Barber ,Victor Zinck Jr, Aslam Hussein, Chelsey Reist and Christie Burke. The story draws most of its induction of horror in the fact that it is viewed from the perspective of camera footage found, during a search by police for the group, and what we see is what happened to the five friends.

crowsnestThe film starts off like most found footage films do, with a simple premise to justify the style. In this case one of the friends is celebrating a birthday and his girlfriend gets him this new camera that is apparently so kick ass he can’t put it down. The trick works for the most part. At the beginning it relies on the same ridiculous banter that all found footage flicks rely on. It has a purpose, to make us connect with the characters personally and lulls us into the feeling that it is an innocent event that should have no unforeseeable horrific outcome. Until that very horrible outcome hits us full on as it does the characters onscreen. Even with the first quarter of this film seeming to fall in the redundant category the film manages to use the tricks of this style of filming quite well. Once the terror starts when city slicker meets psycho country cannibal everything changes brutally. Brenton manages to use a few new camera tricks to justify the scene being captured on film/digital-whatever. These tricks mange to keep the film flowing without seeming forced on us in order to continue with a found footage format. All in all the movie had me starring at my screen like a deer in headlights, afraid to keep looking and afraid to turn away.

“Crowsnest” may start off feeling like the same ole-same ole but don’t be misguided by that knee jerk reaction. The actors manage to turn scenes of classic terror through the camera’s eye into real tense and suspenseful moments. There are also some very dark edgy moments that show brutal survival instinct that no civilized person would ever think of resorting to, and the cannibals are never seen full on in the scenes, only shadowy poorly lit monsters that chase down, dismember, and discard their prey. The graphic gore is minimal in this film because unlike some cliché movies these monsters have no real care for the modern trinkets that city folk carry with them into the outback. So there are no scenes from killer point of view on tape getting gritty and raw and nasty with the special effects- save one scene-the birthday boy. But you will have to watch the film to see. I have to say that I will probably add this to my collection and watch it some more times. I rarely say that about found footage films.
