More movie thoughts late Octber 2022

Accident Man Hitman’s Holiday is the sequel to the movie Accident Man. Accident Man was about an assassin who made his kills look like accidents.  (This is a good idea. There is a novel series with this concept.)  I think I liked the original Accident Man a bit more than the sequel. I might have to re-watch the original. I wish Salem’s Lot was coming out this year.  Maybe since I don’t go to theaters anymore I would not see it until next year anyway, I am just curious about the reviews. It is my favorite Stephen King novel (I admit I have might have read only four or five of his novels) and I enjoyed both TV adaptations. (I have an interest in King’s work and the adaptions to TV and movies.) I have good things about Section 8, a direct to video action thriller. I might pick it up on Blu-ray. I think Black Site, another direct to video action movie, is supposed to be good. Maybe next month I will pick it up and Section 8.  

Movie thoughts late October 2022

I liked Accident Man Hitman’s Holiday but maybe less than I expected. However, I think I will re-watch it at some point. I am still interested seeing in Scott Adkins’ next movie.  I wonder if I will ever watch the last two Halloween movies. I feel like I should be interested in these films but I am not. Maybe one day I will give Halloween Kills another chance. My favorite Halloween movie, besides the original, might be Halloween 4.  The last two DC animated movies have been fun but not great. I would like sequels to both. I was watching Kickboxer 4. I liked it. There are seven Kickboxer movies and I own 5. I have watched one of the two I don’t own.   

I liked Werewolf by Night and other movie thoughts

I liked Werewolf by Night. It was fun and not too long. (Maybe at under an hour, it really might not be a movie.) It looked good in black and white.This feels more a Universal Monsters film than anything Universal has produced in ages.  I feel I should be more interested in Black Adam. Maybe the film will be good but I have a feeling that it might only be average or slightly above average. Reports are that Henry Cavill will have a cameo as Superman. That could be nice. I have almost no interest in Halloween Ends. Right now, I think I will check out some reviews but probably won’t watch the film. I don’t think I ever finished Halloween Kills. Maybe I am losing interest in this franchise.  

The Munsters film is not that bad

There is a new movie adaption of the Munsters. The Munsters was a sitcom about a family who were monsters living in the suburbs. There might be some similarities to the Adams Family.  A lot of reviews suggest the film is terrible. I am not saying the film is good but terrible might be a stretch. I have seen some really terrible or awful movies that I don’t call films terrible or awful lightly. Rob Zombie wrote and directed this movie. I am not a fan of his work but I only have seen his Halloween movies. Those are bad films. (No, Rob Zombie’s Halloween is not the worst movie in that franchise.) Comedy might not be Zombie’s strength. I did not finish this film, so I cannot do a full review. I did not get invested in the story. I think I gave the film fifteen or twenty minutes. This film is on Netflix, so if you feel curious give it a shot.
