In my best Sam Jackson voice "Enough is enough! I have had it with these motherf*cking vampires's on this motherf*cking plane!
What a great little find on Netflix. Just when you think you are watching a wholesome take on Let The Right One In you get hit with a free for all vamp fest like From Dusk Till Dawn.
The story centers on Nadja and her son Elias taken a Transatlantic flight. At first it looks as if Nadja may have a medical condition that she will be being treated in New York for. Leukemia or cancer.....nope it's vampirism. And we get to see she became a creature of the night though flashbacks. We also learn that she can take injections to keep her symptoms at bay.
An innovative horror thriller after a long time, Blood Red Sky is an entertaining affair that has the right levels of chills and spills to keep you on the edge of your seats.
The brilliant Peri Baumeister stars as Nadja, a troubled mother to a precocious young sun who has boarded a plane to get treatment for a mysterious illness. The same plane gets hijacked by a bunch of ruthless armed mercenaries and how she deals with the same forms the rest of the story.
Carl Anton Koch as Nadja's enterprising son is a delight to watch and puts in a performance much ahead of his tender age.
The way in which horror is infused into the story is pure genius and backed up by superior special effects, the film delivers a spine-tingling, eerily scary experience.
Special mention must be made of the brilliant German actor Alexander Scheer who makes an immensely loathsome antagonist. His performance really took the film to another level entirely.
If you are into horror, this one is definitely a must-watch. Recommended!
Director: Jim Wynorski Writers: Jim Wynorski, Steve Mitchell Stars: Kelli Maroney, Tony O'Dell, Russell Todd, Karrie Emerson , Barbara Crampton The cast is wonderful as features personal favorites Barbra Crampton and Kelli Maroney. Maroney is basically our lead and final girl and she’s so fantastic. She hasn’t had has many leading roles over the years as she’s deserved but this is certainly one of the highlights. When it comes to cult films Jim Wynorski is no stranger. A number of his films fall under the “cult film” umbrella and maybe none more so than his second directorial effort 1986’s Chopping Mall, a film about a state-of-the-art security system installed at a mall to cut down on theft and other criminal activity. The system includes security robots programmed to stop thieves and disable them via tasers and hold them until the proper authorities arrive. Chopping Mall is no Citizen Kane. It’s easy silly by B-movie standards in many ways. Still it’s incredibly enjoyable and...
I am a huge fan of Hitchcock, and have really liked all of the movies of his I have seen so far. My top 5 favourites are Vertigo, North By Northwest, Rear Window, Rebecca and this masterpiece. Before I saw this, I considered Vertigo as his masterpiece. After seeing this movie, I think Psycho outshines Vertigo. Psycho is a film that you see once and never forget, and one of the few movies out there that has left me traumatised. The infamous shower scene is without doubt one of the most terrifying murder scenes in any film. When I first saw that scene on the 100 Greatest American Films, I was so terrified and I admit it I have never recovered. I had a similar experience watching the Disney film Sleeping Beauty with Maleficent enticing Aurora to the spinning wheel, and Mrs Gulch turning into the Wicked Witch in the Wizard of Oz. The shower scene isn't the only effective or chilling scene in the film- in the events leading up to that scene I was biting my nails. The scene with the ol...
