Twilight - 4/10
I think it was Jimmy O on JoBlo.com who said "see Let the Right One In instead", and I couldn't agree more. What a terrible excuse for a film. I haven't read the books, but if the character relationships are as shallow, badly paced, and tedious as in the film, I'm glad I didn't spend the money. Wooden acting and an awful script really put the nail in the coffin. Kudos to the guy who played Carlisle, the chick who played Alice, and the dad though, they were pretty good.
Return of the Living Dead Part III - 7/10
Not quite as great as I expected, nor was it as good as the original, but still a worthy successor with a nice human/zombie love story and some fan-fucking-tastic FX.
Serial Mom - 7/10
A very cheap affair, but Kathleen Turner going demented over suburban imperfections and beating a woman to death with an overcooked turkey leg gets my vote any day. Also, Matthew Lillard plays a character similar to his role in Scream which is equally entertaining. Plus, it's John Waters.
