In Our Blood (2025)


There are many found footage movies that try to be the next Blair Witch Project or capture lightning in a bottle to become a cult film that people will talk about for years to come. In Our Blood isn't a film that people will be talking after viewing nor will it be a cult film. But it is a good found footage film with a twist I saw coming about 2/3 of it. I will give it credit that In Our Blood wasn't your typical found footage film with a paranormal plot. but something different, which is a great feeling because it gets a little tiring of seeing the same thing over and over again. The script for In Our Blood is decent. At first I perceived this as some sort of thriller/drama with a twist I thought about and was correct one once I saw the sequence it self. So script is pretty good. Acting is fair. I've mentioned many times before that with acting in a found footage film, it's hit or miss, here it's good, but some of it can be over the top. Pacing... with it feeling like a thriller at first, it wasn't bad, no signs of slowing down whatsoever. Overall, I was quite impressed with the fact that In Our Blood was a different found footage film then what I've seen before. Is it destined to be a cult classic? No, but it's one of the better ones out there.

3/5

Clown in a Cornfield (2025)

Every once in awhile, there's always a killer clown film that ends up being good, It, Clown... There's a few more but they escape me at the moment. Unfortunately, Clown in a Cornfield isn't a good film. Despite some cool kills and a interesting premise, there are two things that stood out to me when watching the film. The pacing was sluggish which tuned me out at times which is a shame because I really wanted to like Clown in a Cornfield. The script needed work which results in it's clunky pacing and if there's one thing I despise it's social media influencers. Every horror film I've seen has characters that are addicted to social media and all I want to say is a get a job. I can't stand them at all. But I'm trailing off here. Apparently, this is based on a book series and they are coming out with book 4. If they really want to do another film, I suggest writing a strong script to maintain the pacing or *shudder, a soft reboot of the film. I can'...

Purple Hearts (2022)

If there's one thing that you won't see me comment on a lot of in this blog are romance movies as I find them to be too sappy for my liking. But for this Valentine's Day, my wife has picked out a few romance movies she wanted to check out and even put together a list for my blog. She has a few ideas on other movies I should check out so, I can't wait to see what she has in store. Please do bear in mind for the few romance films that I do a commentary on here. Purple Hearts is a sappy romance flick whose main character I found extremely irradiating in the beginning. If there is one thing I hate in a film is dealing with characters who are annoying. In any other film, I'd expect them to be killed off within an hour, here I had to put with it throughout the entire film. I've seen a few romance films back in the day and the script for Purple Hearts is as sappy as you can get. Pacing is a little slow. Why does this film need to be 2 hours???? Acting is decent. Overal...

The Warriors (1979)

Image
I don't watch a lot of films that depict gangs but when I do, they're usually mediocre at best. But there's one film that I have enjoyed since I was a teenager and I remember playing the video game for hours, The Warriors. With a killer soundtrack and creepy background, The Warriors is truly one of the best films ever made. The script is phenomenal along with the acting. It may be a movie about gang life, but it's got some amazing acting performances. The pacing moves at warp speed. This is one of those rare moments where I wished this film had a sequel, but I'm glad it never did. The film is beautiful as it is and no sequel, no remake would ever come close to this. In conclusion, if you want to watch a great film about gangs, The Warriors is the one for you. I'm Jeff Roman. 5/5
