Afflicted (2012, -, 85)


I started watching this movie based on Kane Hodder’s appearance.  He is not in it long, so if that is your reason, don’t bother.  The movie is about a mother who torchers, even kills her own kids.  It was very sickening and I was about to turn it off, when I remembered it is closely based on a true story.  After looking up the true story I decided to finish.  It was informative on how messed up some people are and what the body and mind can go through and keep on going.  Completely disturbing!

Possession (2012, PG-13, 92)


First, this movie does not have strong swearing, sex, or gore.  But it is Creepy!  A little girl has bought a box from a garage sale and it ends up being a Jewish sacred container containing a demonic spirit.  The actors and graphics were convincing and scary.  The story line kept interest.  Finally, it is about time Christians lose their monopoly on demonic spirits.

Mama (2013, PG-13, 100)

This movie has no strong swearing, gore, or sex.  Trying not to spoil the movie my synopsis may not be crystal clear.  Two young orphan girls are lost in the woods for a few years “alone.”  Once they are found it is noticed the girls have “created” a “Mama” that has taken care of them.  This “Mama” follows them to live with their uncle and weird things happen.  The story was good and very creepy.  This was one of the scariest movies in a while.

Supernatural Activity (2012, -, 90)

An illusionist has a show proving/disproving supernatural happenings.   This is a mock show that has many references to some good movies.  It is somewhat amusing and even funny in parts.  It really pushed for time with what they had and it gets redundant.  Although I did find this movie funny, I was really tired and was able to get the references they made.  The rating is around R, but not officially.
