Tranquil-Moon Movie Reviews

A Perfect Getaway (2009) Thriller/Drama
Unlike some other reviewers, we thought this a preety good psycholocgical thriller. It has some very tense moments and frankly the charactor ‘Nick’ was not so unlike others we had met on vacations in our own past.
Steve Zahn, we think, did the best with his portral as ‘Cliff’ a seemly whimpy, [...]

Zombies! Zombies! Zombies! (2008) a.k.a.
Strippers vs. Zombies
Don’t let the low budget of this movie stop you from watching it!
It’s great fun and entertaining done in the style of ‘Troma’ but better than some of them. Well worth your time and effort, as long as it’’s not to much time and effort, but watch it if [...]

The House of the Devil (2009) Satanic Horror
This movie was so placed in the 80’s time frame that when watching we forgot it was made in the 21st Century, they did good.
We thought it took a bit to get the story going, character building and all that. But when Samantha get to the house to [...]

Gamer (2009) Action/Science Fiction
Had an opportunity to watch ‘Gamer’ last night, found it at least entertaining. The concept was pretty good and the charactor Castle had some dept but I felt Butler (Kable) was kind of typical Gerard Butler.
Lots of action and the effects were good.
Due Out On DVD and BluRay January 10, 2010
Plot Summary
Kable, [...]

The Tournament – Action 2009
Interesting story concept 30 assassins battling it out with only one winner and that winner takes it all. But there’s a twist, Father Macavoy, he doesn’t belong in the competition.
One of the contestants decides he doesn’t want to be tracked so he cuts the tracking device out and finds a way [...]

Taintlight – Comedy/Horror Parody 2009
An over the top parody of the hit movie “Twilight”. Low budget, campy and highly over acted it delivers some laughs, hopefully intentional.
Stella and Edgar (Meredith Host & Kurt Indovina) the angst filled teenagers in love and while Edgar tries very hard to push Stella away emotionally, to no avail, Stella [...]

Drag Me To Hell – Horror 2009
We’ve been Sam Raimi fans since the original Evil Dead, all through the Hercules TV series, the Spiderman’s and this movie is no different.
One of the best horror films of this year.
Excellent special effects, good acting and some real surprises within the story line.
Rent it, Buy it whatever if [...]

Tomboys – Horror 2009
These girls take the time to exact revenge on past abusers, men who have raped them.
The entire movie takes place on one set, a large shed, where the girls find ways to make it memorable to the rapists.
The audio on our edition was a bit garbled at times or maybe it was [...]

Black Dynamite – Comedy/Parody 2009
Frankly, never heard of this movie until someone told me about it. Was it in the theaters?
Well I need to say this is one of the funniest parodies of black exploitation movies I’ve ever seen. The actors play it to the hilt.
The primary character, Black Dynamite, is an expert at everything, [...]

Necroville – Horror/Comedy 2007
If the reports we heard about this movie are true then the producers and director did a pretty good job. We heard this movie was made independently with private funds (meaning max’ed out credit cards).
The acting wasn’t bad and the zombie effects were pretty good.
Overall, a decent 90 min. of entertainment for [...]
