Thoughts on Lake Mungo

Lake Mungo is a Australian psychological horror mockumentary. It has a creepy atmosphere and the edits make the paranormal imagery very authentically eerie. The story twists and turns for an interesting and subtle ghost story. It get a little anticlimactic after the great build up. Still, Lake Mungo is worth checking out if you enjoy subtle horror.

Thoughts on Between Two Ferns: The Movie

Between Two Ferns: The Movie is a Netflix movie which is the appropriate venue. The humor is very sarcastic and satirical. The celebrities seem like good sports. If there is a major downside, it’s that Will Ferrell is a comedic black hole. Every joke he attempts reeks of desperation. Otherwise, it’s a fine movie to catch if you are a fan of the web show.

Thoughts on School Spirit

School Spirit is a Hulu original horror movie. The plot is essentially The Breakfast Club if there was a murderer at the school. The dialogue is hilariously bad, the acting is not particularly great, and the story is completely ludicrous. Still, I was at least entertained with the premise and the twists and turns it took to at least attempt to make the movie entertaining. I recommend it if you are a horror fan at a complete loss for what to watch on Hulu.

Thoughts on IT: Chapter 2

IT: Chapter 2 is a fine follow up to the first IT. The actors do a great job and there are a lot of creepy moments. The CG monsters border a bit on the silly/ridiculous side. The story movies forward and gets a bit predictable at times but the acting and pacing make the film enjoyable. Give this movie a try if you enjoyed the first film.
