My Bloody Valentine 3D (2009)


My Bloody Valentine 3D was directed by Patrick Lussier and stars Jensen Akers and Jamie King.


Augh! This movie was great!
Seriously. It delt out exactly what it promised: An 80's-style slasher romp that was fun to watch. It wasn't deep or nuanced in any way, but it didn't pretend to be. This lack of pretension allowed the film to foreground itself as derivational and thereby revel in its lack of originality.
My only problem was that our local theatre was only showing it in 2D. (Boo! Hiss!) However, the 3D effects were pretty well done, because quite often images seemed to pop out anyway, despite our appaling lack of 3D glasses.


A+

Amityville 3D (1983)


Amityville 3D, or Amityville 3: The Demon, was released in 1983. Directed by Richard Fleischer, this fine film stars Tony Roberts, Tess Harper, Candy Clark from The Man Who Fell To Earth(1976), and Meg Ryan.

I’m watching Amityville 3D as I write this. This is not out of sudden, joyous inspiration caused by brilliant movie magic, but because it is really boring. Really. Boring. You’d think, what with it being in 3D, there’d at least be a few things flying at your face to keep it interesting, but no such luck.

Lame. Whatever, I’m still SUPER EXCITED about My Bloody Valentine 3D.
