Put on Winchester (2018). Not expecting much, but didn't want to scroll too long.

Are you talking about this one? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082991/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

A Hong Kong movie with just 27 ratings?

That's hardcore. :P

There's been nothing else to really offer in this so far. I know it got trashed by critics when it came out, but they're usually harsh on horror. This is probably as bland as they come...

I love Ving Rhames. I need to see more movies with him in it. He needs to do more horror, dangit!

Going with Rodan (1956) next. The beautiful Japanese color will be a pleasant pick-me-up following the drab black-and-white from Dementia 13.

Winchester could've been a lot better had it been an anthology about the ghosts in that house, rather than not knowing what the hell to do, kinda talk about them, and not go anywhere.

I think I saw a trailer for that one, and it struck me as incredibly generic and by-the-numbers. Looks like my gut feeling wasn't far off.

It doesn't even stick to the by-the-numbers, it's just making it's plot up as it goes lol. But yeah, blandly generic still.

I'm also *this* close to just refusing movies with Jason Clarke in them. The only good one that I recall was Zero Dark Thirty, and he was a supporting character.
