Dark Shadows (12/05/2012)
When I heard that Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows was based on a 1970s horror-based soap opera, that was the film I was expecting it to be. When the trailer came out, it looked like the film was taking a campy and comedic route, which I’m sure would have excited people who liked Tim Burton’s early work, […]

In fact, the film turns out to be a celebration of the history of early cinema, most notably the work of Georges Méliès, played in the film by Ben Kingsley. For […]

(500) Days of Summer is such a film as it features a non-chronological format as it went back and forth between a 500 day […]
The Eye (03/02/2008)

I said that The Eye was the latest J-Horror remake, when it actually the remake of a Hong Kong horror film. That said, the Asian influence wasn’t as evident in this film as films like The Ring […]
