Are these all new for you?
I would say Spree is far worse. because at least Dashcam has some okay scenes towards the last act yet Spree is just awful when it comes to entitled assholes and pretty much everything else.DancesWithWerewolves wrote: ↑Sun Oct 30, 2022 3:04 pm Jeez, this Annie character is the fucking worst pos character in quite some time.
I think the Danielle Harris love plot really hurts the film, because once she is introduced and becomes the main focus the rest of that film is a tough slog to sit through. Let's put a halt on roaming the land killing vampires and settle down and meander about with a dated love story.DancesWithWerewolves wrote: ↑Sun Oct 30, 2022 11:48 am I do think I'm seeing why I'm not connecting with this: I really don't give a shit about the two leads. Mister is a terrible actor, and boring, while the kid is just plain boring. There's no personality, development, nothing to them. There's an interesting vampire apocalyptic world, and these two lackluster protagonists are who we're saddled with.
Hmmm, that doesn't bode well for Spree then.Havok wrote: ↑Sun Oct 30, 2022 9:06 pmI would say Spree is far worse. because at least Dashcam has some okay scenes towards the last act yet Spree is just awful when it comes to entitled assholes and pretty much everything else.DancesWithWerewolves wrote: ↑Sun Oct 30, 2022 3:04 pm Jeez, this Annie character is the fucking worst pos character in quite some time.
I was actually thinking Harris and Willie are the characters we should be following, but obviously not this middle "let's make a found-family" plot, but they were far better performers than the two leads and easily could've carried the film by themselves.Havok wrote: ↑Sun Oct 30, 2022 9:15 pmI think the Danielle Harris love plot really hurts the film, because once she is introduced and becomes the main focus the rest of that film is a tough slog to sit through.

What was wrong with it? I thought it was a cool concept, and by the dudes from INSIDE!DancesWithWerewolves wrote: ↑Sun Oct 02, 2022 11:18 am Starting off my morning with The Deep House
That wound up a dud, but didn't get me angry like Firestarter
Dunno about DOMD, but I thought it was a boring mess of a film. I talked about last year here.Reign in Blood wrote: ↑Wed Nov 02, 2022 10:30 am What was wrong with it? I thought it was a cool concept, and by the dudes from INSIDE!
Yeah, it was pretty damn boring, especially for such a cool concept.Slaughterhouserock wrote: ↑Wed Nov 02, 2022 10:57 amDunno about DOMD, but I thought it was a boring mess of a film.
