twitRev RoundUp
A couple of weeks ago I decided to start doing something new. Instead of posting long drawn out reviews for movies, I started doing what I call the twitRev. I watch movies and review them in 140 characters or less. These reviews can be found on the @YoMoEy twitter account. Each roundup consists of the 5 most recent twitRevs and will contain just a bit of extra information.
twitRev: The House of the Devil is a refreshing horror flick, it's nothing like the constant bullshit that Hollywood calls "horror" nowadays
The House of the Devil is about some chick trying to make it on her own and looking for a job to pay for rent on her new home. Outside of her current college dorm she sees an ad for a babysitting gig. She takes the job, drives to the house in the middle of nowhere, then shit hits the fan. The story is simple but that’s not necessarily a bad thing for this type of movie. It’s set in the ’80s and is shot in the same manner as movies of that era. In a day and age that is plagued with horror movies of the “torture porn” genre or gory remakes of original slasher flicks, The House of the Devil comes off as a true homage to late ’70s and early ’80s horror classics. The last half hour of the film plays out like a slasher flick but it’s the hour before hand that has an intense slowly paced build up. People who enjoy the previously mentioned torture porn flicks or remakes will definitely not dig this. It isn’t for them and they really wouldn’t appreciate this type of horror flick.
Age of Zombies
Age of Zombies is the next game by the developers at Halfbrick. It’s a top down twin stick style zombie shooter set in different periods throughout history. It looks like an HD remake of a SNES game, which is really awesome. It’ll be releasing on the PS Store as a “mini” for PS3/PSP on February 25th. If this game has some form of online co-op, then that’ll be the icing on the cake.
Trailer Tuesdays
Trailer Tuesdays finally returns. As mentioned before, this will only be posted every other week. Meaning, you can expect the next one on February 16th. Enjoy.
"Discovering covert and faulty intelligence causes a U.S. Army officer to go rogue as he hunts for Weapons of Mass Destruction in an unstable region."
From the director of the Bourne sequels and starring Matt Damon. Seems very similar to the aforementioned films but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Damon kicking ass, should be a decent action flick.
[Release Date: March 12th, 2010]
