There's something for everyone this week, provided you like films about deadly cars and/or George Sampson doing the occasional backflip.
The biggest release of the week is Street Dance 2, this time taking the action abroad, more specifically to as many cliched European landmarks they can squeeze into 90 minutes. Urban dance movies don't really do it for me (particularly in 3D), and I expect that this is nothing more than another clumsy retread of West Side Story but with more fingers wiggling from the screen.
By now, I'm getting pretty sick of the story that a group of college kids went to location X and then disappeared and the only thing that remains is their camera footage which has now been edited into a film for our entertainment which their families were totally okay about. The only reason for you to buy this film is if you've got poor eyesight and mistake it for Paranormal Activity, which of course isn't what the designers of this DVD cover want to happen at all. No sir.
Not a sequel to Creep or The Van, it is however from the same people who brought us Gag. Basically ripping off Stephen King's Christine but placing the action in a vehicle that's easier to film in, from watching the trailer for Creep Van I'm not sure whether the filmmakers are taking the piss or not.
The epitome of high concept vs low budget, in a world of rising petrol prices it's a car that runs on blood. Seriously, what more could you want? Hopefully not high production values as this film doesn't appear to have too much of that. Still, it's a film that I want to own now, and just when you think the trailer for Blood Car couldn't get any more batshit insane, up pops Anna Chlumsky, AKA the girl from My Girl.
wowow Blood Car looks so awful it could just be brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThis site sucks.
ReplyDeleteThey are talking about films they haven't even bothered to watch!
CREEP VAN is NOTHING like the classic film CHRISTINE...watch it for yourself and you'll see...
CREEP VAN has lots of good reviews from LEGITIMATE websites...you be the judge.
There's nothing like an anonymous comment to put me in my place, but for me your name is now going to be ALL CAPS. Much love. X
