The Frighteners - A horror comedy with a Beetlejuice-like sense of humor, starring Michael J. Fox. It's a little sad because he plays a drunk, and you're not always sure how much of his mannerisms are part of his acting and how much are from the early stages of Parkinson's. It's an okay movie.
Firestarter - A Stephen King adaptation that I missed before. There's nothing original in the movie, but watching a little girl set things on fire with her mind is cool. I think this book/movie may have influenced the creators of the new TV show, Believe.
Europa Report - Apparently, there's life on one of Jupiter' s moons. And it's kind of Lovecraftian. Also, according to this movie, Jupiter's moons are located in "deep space." Really? Is it really "deep space" if it's within our own solar system.
GBF - Yes, I watched a teen dramedy. I liked this one, it was kind of like Easy A. More than one reference to Mean Girls, too.
Videodrome and They Live - I'm putting these together on the list because they're both 80s movies that should be remade and updated. Videodrome is about evil TV, I guess, and They Live is about evil aliens that have infiltrated Earth's population and put propaganda everywhere.
Passengers - Meh. The twist that
has been done before, better.
Twelve Monkeys - Not the best time travel movie I've ever seen, but not the worst. I just have a nit to pick - I know this movie was made before 9/11, but are we really supposed to believe the bad guy would get past airport security with a box full of deadly virus? REALLY?
Shadow People - Total bullshit based on a real thing. That real thing is Sudden Unexpected Nocturnal Death Syndrome (SUNDS). Apparently, this has happened in different eras in different Asian communities, and there are tons of myths about it, but I don't think "Shadow People" are one of those myths.
Chasing the Devil - Pretty much just another Paranormal Activity ripoff. Fortunately for me, I never really tire of watching Paranormal Activity ripoffs.
