Killing Ariel (2006)

The best part of this movie was the nightmare I had while sleeping through the last thirty minutes. It was a terrifying dream; the most frightened I've been in a long time. Killing Ariel tried so hard and is lame at best. The tone, acting, and visual gags reminded me of a full-length version of one of the tales from Campfire Tales (1997). If this comes on TV during an October horror movie marathon, it might be worth checking out, but don't waste a spot in your Netflix queue, or a slot in the torrent downloader.

  1. This was one of my favorites of last year, mostly due to the roller coaster construction you pointed out and the ending is just spectacular (what the hell is that thing doing with that hammer?!?). If you haven't seen it, yet, check out Deadgirl for a unique take on the zombie genre.

  2. Bo - I was puzzled when I saw that this was "one of [your] favorites." Now I see you meant [REC].
