Glad you enjoyed Burnt Offerings, Jason. Easily one of my favorites from the 1970's.

Tom Cruise isn’t great in it for sure.

God. Only about ten minutes in, but this horror-western fusion is already putting me to sleep. Hopefully the horror gets here quickly - that might help. :P

Richard Harris seems fun here, though, so Silent Tongue has that going for it.

Slow-going movie thus far, but at least that ghost looked well-done.

This guy just used the exclamation "Great Scott!"

Shame his name's not Doc Brown. :P

I really wish I could like Dog Soldiers more than I do so I can fit in with others that gush about it, but I really don't find it at all amazing. I guess I'll just continue to lone wolf this. Decent.

And trying to combine the two is hard, at least for me. A new werewolf movie that'll be satisfying is fucking hard to find, lol.

Dog Soldiers is easily one of the best movies of all time, and for the 2000's, there's zero doubt it's the best horror movie released in that ten-year range.
