Hi I'm Jack and welcome to my movie review channel! I have a passion for watching and discussing movies, with a particular love for horror films so please take a look around if you enjoy movie discussion, horror and ranking videos.
Best horror film I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen a lot. Before he goes into teleporter he had already successfully teleported another baboon hence the alcohol influenced decision to teleport plus worried that Ronnie is still seeing stathis by leaving suddenly.

1. Fury Road 2. Road Warrior (both this and Fury Road are genuinely thrilling to watch due to the evidently dangerous stunts on display) 3. Furiosa (better story than Road Warrior and Fury Road but the action scenes already haven't aged as well, looks like they were inside a sound stage which sadly isn't thrilling to watch). 4. Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome is actually my personal favourite film of all these but not my favourite Mad Max film in the sense that it feels like a completely seperate fantasy film but the thunderdome scene, final chase scene and Max portrayed at his most heroic are all standouts for me.

Right, since it's as good or better than Fury Road, I definitely need to see it, and on the big screen, having absolutely loved Fury Road, back in, gosh was it really 2015?? That's scary.
@jackpetriereviews5 күн бұрын
The more time I’ve had to think I definitely prefer it to Fury Road! I know I was thinking that.. time goes too fast 😩 Furiosa isn’t doing well financially I’m wondering if it’s because they’ve left it too long since the last!
@baraka998 күн бұрын
In many ways, I found Furiosa to be a superior experience compared to Fury Road. The Mad Max universe feels even more expansive and yet more intimate and layered. Furiosa compelled me to revisit Fury Road. An outstanding prequel.

This is much more of a phycological, political thriller than a "horror film" Richard Donor himself said "I didnt want to make a horror film" and he didnt, hense why the film is so great, its clever the way you sense evil is going to happen, and yet you don't know what it will be all the time. FINAL DESTINATION Didnt impress me it all felt much more like some horror video game, not in the league of THE OMEN.

What are the MAJOR differances between EXORCIST & OMEN In the Exorcist were briefly in Iraq the rest of the time stuck mainly in a child's bed room & from the moments the Priests arrive were stuck there through out. THE OMEN the Directing approach is more...traditional drama, with little symbolism, (& when it's used, it works brilliantly the photographs with the eery shadows etc) the film goes on an international quest to understand & stop what's being foretold (a journey that takes us to England uk, Italy (both Rome & rural Italy to a Monastry and Israel the sense of international mystery & suspence is much stronger & the film dares NOT to have a happy ending cop out

THE EXORCIST done in the style of a documentry/diary I felt was far too arty for a horror type film, with too much symbolism like in an art house film, best for being atmospheric, & obviously frightening for ground breaking for it's effects at that time, it had the pond to itself

That’s interesting you say that, I enjoyed it I felt like it had a more sinister feel to it than The Omen which I liked. I do see what you’re saying but I found I got more into the story of the characters in the Exorcist

OMEN the awakening, you might not know was originally a made for American tv offering (hense the puny horror set pieces, they had the nerve in the Uk to put this out at the cinema only) DAMIEN 3 basically a persuit film trying to stop an Evil entity before it's too late & that's about all we got, the weak tea ending was especially disappointing - he gets stabbed in the back & falls, no thunder bolts or slow motion dramatic music, as there was in the beginning. OMEN 2 not bad a bit plodding, but again an anti climatic ending that felt VERY much set up for yet another sequel. THE OMEN itself a VERY important film, about the nature of Evil & being marked for death, also a clever & unique film daring for it's time. THE FIRST OMEN I can't comment (i havent seen it & missed the boat like most modern films it got very little publicity, & a limited cinema run.

In fact I've only seen a couple from your list (to be honest the others mostly don't sound much like my cup of tea from what I've heard about them). Nevertheless here's my Top 10 of the 2020s so far goes something like this (I'm counting anything that's labeled 'horror' on IMDB, whether it's a horror comedy, action horror, sci-fi horror etc): 1. Last Night in Soho 2. Old 3. The Black Phone 4. The First Omen 5. Scream 6. Knock at the Cabin 7. Freaky 8. Peninsula 9. A Quiet Place Part II 10.

I haven't seen them in quite a while (aside from the new prequel), but I feel like I would rank them roughly the same as you did, though I am in general less critical than you seem to be and overall enjoy most of them to some degree. I am pleasantly surprised to see you rank the remake so highly when many people online seem to dismiss it as one of the worst things ever produced. For my money it's a very solid remake, well shot with a great cast, just perfectly solid. I believe one of the main reasons fot it being made was to take advantage of the 6 June 2006 release date (6-6-6). Regarding the prequel, I find your comment regarding the ending interesting, as in creative writing you are often told to keep your endings open, not closed, but it seems you like it the other way around! One piece of work that went unmentioned here is the short-lived 2016 TV series which serves as an alternate sequel to the original, ignoring the film sequels. And there are a couple of sequel novels which continue on from _The Final Conflict_ and are apparently quite entertaining (Damien's son is born "from behind" from the reporter he took "from behind" in the 3rd film). But another short-lived TV series I'd recommend is 2005's clearly _Omen_ influenced _Point Pleasant,_ which was sadly canceled after only 13 episodes, but at least they were aware of this after filming the tenth one so the last three suddenly rush to get to some sort of an ending. In any case enjoyable ranking, and I appreciate that you seem to not spoil too much and go into the plot details of the films you're discussing, a pretty rare quality nowadays. Keep at it!
@jackpetriereviews11 күн бұрын
That makes sense re the remake! I didn't realise that. It definitely doesn't deserve the hate, it's a decent film. I just found myself wondering whilst watching it why they decided to make it. I probably sounded too harsh on Omen 2, just the fact it's reviewed so well and I look at a lot of horror (particularly modern horror) that receive huge amounts of criticism so wanted to make my point on that. That's interesting, I mean I would agree with that for the original in which it's left fairly open ended. it just sat with me wrong in the prequel because it's specifically to tell the lead up to the events of the OG and to have that story running parallel didn't feel organic to me and more like an afterthought as a setup for potential sequels.

If I had to make a list of the greatest scenes from the world of horror, I'd probably put the graveyard scene with the mass dog attack near the top. Right along with the pigs' blood being dumped in Carrie, or the closet scene from Halloween....it's one of those galvanizing moments, absolute perfection. I'm a slasher fan, but if I had to make a list of the best non-slasher horror movies I've seen, The Omen would be awfully close to the top(along with Carrie)...

Totally agree with your comments. A superb movie, both in its own right, and as part of the ongoing Planet of the Apes adventure. I didn't quite "get" some of plot points around Mae either, so I'm glad to hear it's not just me!
I will be interested to hear more about that plot line and the questions I have, still can’t find much online about it
Great review!
Thank you
@@jackpetriereviews keep it up!
@@augustkellerwrites will do thanks, I saw all of the planet of the apes movies recently so thinking about making a ranking video over the weekend
@@jackpetriereviews great idea!
Great review! Yes, I agree with your assessment of your Number 1. I've only seen a few (3?) but only that one stands out as memorable to me.
That and the new prequel I would say are the only 2 worth watching! I can understand some people enjoying 2, but not for me. Thank you!
Great review!
You've been busy! I need to get on Civil War. And I've added Abigail to my watch list now too, it sounds great!
You’ll love both!
Monkey Man Abigail Música Civil War The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare Arcadian Scoop Strictly Confidential
I want to see Arcadian but it’s not available to watch over here in the UK yet
9/10 from me! Was fun to watch from start to finish
Glad you loved it too, it was a lot of fun
@@jackpetriereviews yup. I WAS expecting jump scares though
Great review man glad to hear that you had a good time with this movie been hearing nothing but positives things for this movie and its def one i plan to check out asap just subbed to the channel i also do movie and series reviews amongst other types of videos over on my channel
It’s very good, probably the best horror movie we’ve had this year so far I think. Thanks for that, will check your channel out
This was such a great time. I loved the buckets of blood, comedy, call backs to ready or not and Alisha Weir did an excellent job.
The more I’ve thought about this one the more I like it! Such a good time, I’ll probably see it again fairly soon. I actually liked it more than Ready or Not
Sounds very interesting. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this is the first time you've praised a comedy horror?!
You might be right! Not my favourite type of film. Can’t remember which I’ve reviewed on the channel though
I really loved the visuals and sound. The war action was great as well. I wasn’t big on the characters though.
Hi Jack. Just got recommended your channel and subbed. I also review movies on my channel like yourself and I did not like this at all either.
Thanks for the sub! Yeah, wasn’t a fan of this one. I’ll take a look at your channel
@@jackpetriereviews Sounds good. Definitely appreciate it.
Gonna need a director ranking by the way, didn't realise he did 28 days and ex machina!
I was thinking about doing this! He wrote 28 days but didn’t direct it. Was debating doing one for all the movies he directed and the ones he wrote as well
Sounds great! I'll have to give it a watch
This is the movie to see in IMAX
Absolutely!
If I had to make a list of the greatest scenes from the world of horror, I'd probably put the graveyard scene with the mass dog attack near the top. Right along with the pigs' blood being dumped in Carrie, or the closet scene from Halloween....it's one of those galvanizing moments, absolute perfection. I'm a slasher fan, but if I had to make a list of the best non-slasher horror movies I've seen, The Omen would be awfully close to the top(along with Carrie)...
It is an excellent scene! I saw Carrie for the first time last year and really liked it, some very memorable moments in that film
What are you talking about? A park! It their garden party for his birthday 😂. And it's a heavy satanic film from the word, action...
Okay a garden filled with park equipment as opposed to a park.. my bad. You’ve got some time on your hands 😂 Also I was talking about the intentions of the director and the fact that he wanted it to be subtle rather than an over the top demon possession film. I guess that was lost on you, but fair enough!
@jackpetriereviews and did you know Gregory Peck, his own young child had died less than a year before filming took place
And no, that's what makes donner so good. The film feeling like real life
@@jimmyeatsmovies893 yes I did know about this. Does make it so the role is more close to his heart I’m sure and as I say he’s definitely likeable
@@jimmyeatsmovies893 this is effectively what I’m saying in the review though? I like the direction that Donner went with it whereas the producer wanted it filled with tons of supernatural imagery
Being lazy and poor, we haven't been to the cinema for years, instead waiting for stuff to turn up on Amazon or Netflix etc, but after watching your review, and having seen Dune 1 again recently, we had to go and see Dune 2 as it was made to be seen and wow! What an experience! It delivers on every level. Now we need Dune 3! I'm saving up already 😊
A classic horror film.
It is! I’m planning to make my way to reviewing some more of the horror classics that I’ve never seen before
100% agree with everything you say here! Great review. I haven't seen The Omen for decades but it stays with me, and the iconic scenes are as fresh in my mind as they were when I saw it in the early 80s. The building sense of dread really works, but totally agree that there are issues with the pace and development. It's one of the few movies I can think of which both terrified me and slightly bored me in parts too 😊
I think originally I watched this years ago when you told me about it! It’s a good horror movie and one of those that with a few changes could have been great
Yes! I seem to remember the others in the Trilogy (1978 and 1981) were not much good at all, but I'd have to see your review of them to be sure ;-) @@jackpetriereviews
@@IKP1000 I have heard this also, there is actually 4 of them! Apparently 2 is okay and 3 and 4 are terrible. I probably won’t watch them individually but I’m thinking about watching them all next week and doing a video ranking them 🤣
Four?? I definitely gave up at 3 then... I do remember 2 and 3 quite vividly though, so they can't have been totally unmemorable. I look forward to your thoughts on them!

I love the new review. Definitely made me subscribe. I loved the movie and she actually wanted to do this film 10 years ago when she was a teen but it got scraped. She was the reason that it got made now. She produced it and picked the director.
Thank you, and yeah I read about this after seeing the film! Didn’t realised how involved with it she was. I will be interested to see it again at some point it’s a movie that has stuck with me somewhat since I saw it
*You need lots of clips this is boring af ngl.*
It’s not easy to get clips of Scanners, the original trailers are just one scene. The title says it’s a movie review and that’s what this is, why would you watch a review for Scanners if you find it boring?
Loved it. Seen it twice. Beautiful film.
It is an amazing film, I’m so glad I found out about it. Looking forward to seeing it again one day
"PromoSM"
Great review! Keep it up
Thank you
Omg omg are you a horror reviewer? I love horror movies. Subscribed

I’m glad you did, it’s got some good things about it I understand why some people like it, just not for me
