The bitter tears of Johnny Cash Nov 10, 2009
" Perhaps he is exaggerating for effect, but if he really believes that line, I can't begin to take seriously any claims he makes about the film he is covering. "Evil Dead" was a low-budget horror film with marginal effects and only an average amount of gore or suspense, compared to other low-budget horror films.

"The House of the Devil": Creepy, stylish fun Oct 31, 2009
The best part is getting there, and West (the cult-horror director behind "The Roost" and the upcoming "Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever") takes a great deal of pleasure and care laying out specific '80s-era details without making them campy or overdone. Sam and Megan's hair flares out into perfect wings; their jeans hit somewhere around the waist, instead of halfway down to their hips; when Sam settles into the Ulmans' house for the evening and pulls out her Walkman, it appears to be about the size...

Moon wanes slightly but still shines bright Jun 16, 2009
Mixing the sleek blandness of 2001, the industrial grit of John Carpenters Dark Star and the extraterrestrial cabin fever of Silent Running, the heady new science-fiction drama Moon is always fascinating to look at. Lead actor Sam Rockwell and production designer Tony Noble are perfectly on point; not quite operating at their level is the interesting but comparatively less challenging screenplay by Nathan Parker (based on a story by director Duncan Jones).
