Movie Review
no doubt this was a very creepy movie to me this kid was crazy in the head and was not normal also the intro of movie was like Almost like Friday the 13th movie series otherwise movie plot was slow at start but once you got into to the movie it picked up some though the movie but too me this movie was ok but not best I see could of been better in my view nothing happen unit close to the end of movie as well needed some more to be a great horror movie but just was not enough in my view ending was not best as well did not like that ending I will say this was not worst I see  some parts were creepy with kid affinity for Nazi memorabilia was can of scary he was just plain nuts and not nice a ok movie but still could of been better.

most disturbing  part of movie
it was fake but still pointless that kid throw the cat in the fire that was sad and pointless to add that to the movie in my view uncool.

Acting
even though didn't like plot much thought Christian Slater as Mark Collins in this one was great he played creepy kid very well and he was also very young in this one as well also babysitter was Lois Smith from Twister movie that was something she was in this she was great in this one as well.

Final thoughts
well not best movie but music and some parts made this movie creepy have to say the intro of movie was not and ending as well but otherwise not much movie can of lack some unit close to the end of movie where it was Mark vs Helen the babysitter otherwise not A high body count of a movie but small scary parts I was not scare much in this but this was another great  Christian Slater movie to me if he was not in this one possible could of been worst if you like his movies think you will like this one As well.

Twisted (1986) Movie rating
5.6 out of 10 for ok

Movie Review
I remember watching this movie as a kid and it scared me and give me nightmares as well so it was fun going back to watch a movie that I have not see in years this one still creeps me out some with the way story was set up this is a Science fiction but this one to seems like a both Science fiction and horror mixed because this one is scary and very creepy movie story is about some saucer landed over the hill and then dad went over the hill and came back acting like something odd happen to him like he was taking over by something then we see a hole or something in back head very creepy so pretty much from there know it was going to be one creepy later on mom goes over the hill and become like the father I was then going something very odd is over the hill but what? well later on we find out who behind taking over humans turns out to be  krang look alike alien ugly looking thing so pretty much they are after david and humans to take over earth pretty much this one was a creepy one from what I see it was rated PG should of been rated PG-13 but this was 80's where sometimes feel PG movies seem like PG-13 movies from start to end it was scary movie but it was great re-watch again as a adult as for ending of movie it was great they left it to make you think if it was a dream or was it not over yet very well play ending there in my view for A movie a very good movie let say this was.


most disturbings parts of the movie
pretty much the teacher eating a whole frog was disturbing in my view this one of reason why it should of PG-13 and not PG movie something you may not want see if you eat something during the movie and aliens were ugly looking as well did not scare me much though but will say they made this one creepy by drilling in the back of your head so there are a few things of movie that are sort of disturbing.

acting
sure was something to see James Karen in this one as Gen. Climet Wilson see him in return of living dead movies least he was not fighting zombies in this one but now aliens did enjoy see him again in this one he was great as General as for acting was good others did a great job at acting odd after being taken over bye aliens acting was not bad in this one.

final thoughts
last time I see this movie was about many years ago and now watching it now it is still creepy to me some this was a good movie not best but a good remake of 1953 one I have not see that but do plan on watching whenever I can find it but this 1980's remake fits in well with 80's era so check out this one if you like creepy 80's movies think this one will fit you will.

movies review will return to fridays next week with another 80's movie review of the movie BeetleJuice.

Invaders From Mars 1986 rating
7.9 out 10 for good

Movie Review
after see the Reboot crap I needed to go all the way back to 1987 to rewatch the very first Robocop movie again which is still my favorite movie by the way this movie is fantastic the plot is set up nice it is about a cop who gets shot by bad guys so a company using his body to create let say a super Robot name Robocop to fight the bad guys and the ones who killed him also during the movie he does have memory of his past life as well on who he was, what I like about this movie is it has lots of action also news Segments as well fit in great in fact that way movie started not many movies I see do that it was pretty awesome even commercials was great this is another reason why I love this version Robocop movie Segments had not much to do with the plot but throwing them in fit in well with the movie was pure genius. yes this movie to me was awesome from start to the end a lot of edge on your seat moments as well again this movie is better then remake and still stands up well here in 2018 hats off to writers and everybody who made Robocop a hit in my view because it was great.

Classic
I think Pretty much what I see in this one fits well as a classic movie for years to come it was release in the 80' s and fits in very well with that Era so it's gets a thumb up from me for being a classic and I think pretty much everybody does agree with me as well great movie,

Acting
the acting in this one was great hats off to everybody in this also Peter Weller as well he was great as Robocop he played him great and he gets a lot of credit from me as well he was fun to watch in this one as Robocop he is still the true Robocop today to me.

Most Brutal Death in Movie History?
I have to say yes watching him get Killed was Scary and send Chills down my spine unlike other deaths that I see in Movie History so be careful if you can't handle Brutal death Scene this one you may want to close your eyes unit it was over it was pretty much mess up.

Closing thoughts
one of best Robocop movie out of series in my view great action and scfi Mix Movie I like this movie a lot and have watch it a lot here in the future also did like how the movie ending as well that way I would had a ending to a great movie with a nice smile do watch Robocop today if you have not because it is a fantastic movie.

that Pretty much it for this CornFest Special movie review event have a great day everybody and next movie review will be on wednesday as I head to fargo on friday.


RoboCop (1987) rating
8.5 out of 10 for great.
