I actually went on a tear this weekend.

The new Mission Impossible movie was my theater viewing. It delivered on everything I expected it too, and even managed a few surprises.

I watched Evil Dead Rise which weirdly kinda worked as a proper Evil Dead movie. I tend to put most of my horror film watches in the guilt category as they rarely transcend their genres and are so often just schlock, but I can enjoy a film in almost any genre. If you like horror films, or more specifically the Evil Dead genre style, this one works. It manages to feel close enough to a Sam Raimi made installment.

I saw a low budget thriller called Unseen which was strong for its premise. And had several great moments (although I did feel there was a big gap in how one of the minor characters was handled).

And watched two other terrible Horror films:

• There’s Something Wrong with the Children – not good at all, skip
• The Deep House – also terrible, but was interesting to see a horror film shot almost entirely underwater in scuba gear. An interesting experience in that sense.
