Sands ofOblivion

...Well, you just have to love made for tv sci fi films. The low budget special effects, the awful acting, and the cheesy pick up lines make this one of my new favorite bad movies.

This movie was about an archaeological dig for a 1920's movie set that just happened to be cursed. It's main plus for watching it was it starred Adam Baldwin and Menora Barracin in it( and yes I am a huge firefly fan..in case you're wondering).

Any sci fi movie where there is a redneck in the middle of the desert with his own armory who uses the line "the last thing on your mind will be the first thing on that truck." - priceless

The "avenger" is this very ugly statue who's costume looks like it was pieced together at goodwill. the head of a dog in a pharaoh outfit. He also strangles you to death. Also he's made from the sand.

Of all things to be said about this movie...it is original, if nothing else.

The Carriers

It would turn out that the first movie I decide to watch to blog about would be mediocre. As far as post apocalyptic films go...it wasn't one of the greatest. However, it was decent enough to not make it to one of the worst films of all time. In all honesty the most descriptive word i have for it is indifference.
A virus has apparently broken out and two brothers are headed for the beach. Why the beach?... sentimental value. Along the way they pick up a little infected girl who gets the girlfriend of the older brother and then eventually the older brother himself infected. They all turn on each other and there never was a cure. Don't you just love those movies?
Very typical. Nothing truly grabbed my attention in this so this review is very lame. However, I've started my movie blog. Woot?

The Joys of Netflix..

Thanks to Netflix it makes it extremely easy to watch and review new movies here starts my movie blog..
