This week screening of “Susperia” was something new for me as I am not a huge fan of the horror genera. For me, I did not see it as a horror film we know today. The feel of the movie was more suspenseful than anything else and didn’t have the jump scares we relate to this type of movie. It was not one of my favorite movies, but it was not the worst. My scale is from “Pink Flamingos” as the lowest currently and up to “The Warriors” as one of the top films we have seen so far. As Dave Portnoy would do his pizza reviews, I will do a movie score of 6.2 for this film. Here’s why.

The movie gets off to start with a huge storm and loud music throughout the whole film. The music at times seemed so overpowering and it was hard to watch. I also found it funny how concerned everyone at the school was over money. It just seemed so out of place and odd. I mean she asked to borrow shoes, and everyone is looking for a quick buck. Next, is the part where they all had to sleep in a common area due to the maggot problem. The one girl was so worried about the women with the oddest snoring I have every heard. After a few years with some of my roommates I can say I am an expert in snoring. If you found that snoring so odd, why not just get up and look behind the sheet. This is the part of horror that makes me go crazy, if they just went and investigate. Then we could save so much time and the old witch would be discovered.

Let’s next talk about the death of Sarah in the barbed wire. First, I feel we need to speak about the man and his many attempts to open the latch. This drove me crazy; it could not be that hard to lift the knife just a little more to get the door open. He was very determined to get that latch because he didn’t stop once until Sarah fell in. Next, who just jumps down onto a floor and not even look once at it. I mean, it seems pretty obvious that you could see that much wire down there. On top of that, why does she keep thrashing around like it will help her get out. No, it is only going to cut her more. After all of that, the guy was standing there ready to cut her throat. This part also bothered me because I have watched a lot of movies and television shows to know that these should be a lot more blood. I mean it was obvious that it was a piece of meat and not some sort of fake neck with blood pouring out.

Now let’s talk about Grease 2. I grew up and have seen Grease so many times and used to love watching the film. I mean I still like to watch the film and really enjoy the songs to sing along to. Now we move on top grease 2, a film that I could say is a part of the Hollywood movie method. That is what I think of this film. The first one was so well and had a lot of popularity that they made a second one. Now I don’t think of the second one as much as the first one. Mainly due to the fact that I don’t think it is nearly as good. That is my opinion, but this is what I love about the class. I get to hear people fight for their movie and see what makes it so great to them. So, I guess I need to give it one more watch.
