Drive Angry (2011)

★★★☆☆

After literally escaping from Hell, Milton is on the lamb as he brutally and relentlessly tracks down the man and his cult who were responsible for killing his daughter and kidnapping his granddaughter for a sacrifice. Unfortunately, he unwillingly draws a young ex-waitress along with him and his antics attract the attention of Satan’s right-hand man and bounty hunter known as The Accountant. The movie delivered what the trailer promised, but I wanted more. I wanted more action, more cheese and more Fitchner. Otherwise, it wasn’t bad. It could have been better.

My Bloody Valentine (2009)

★★★★☆

Back in late 90s miner Harry Wardin went on a brutal killing spree when the cave that he was working on collapsed. After waking from his coma he went on another killing spree during Valentine’s Day and unfortunately the mine owner’s son, Tom Hanniger, witnessed Wardin’s bloody demise. 10 years later he has returned, estranged from the town and about to sell off the mine. However, with his return came the return of Harry Wardin and he’s doing what he does best… slicing and dicing. Sheriff Axel Palmer is on his tail but discovers something hidden within Wardin’s and Hanniger’s past. This was the best remake to come out of the 00’s. it was dark, brutal, not too serious and had characters that we love. The gore was prime, the 3D was okay but what steals the show are the actors; veteran actors Tom Atkins and Kevin Tighe add their charm to this pleasing remake.
