    The Orphan Killer

    • 727 Words
    • 3 Pages

    First things first, I want to apologise to any of the film crew will have worked hard on this movie in some form or another. What I have to say is in no way a reflection of your overall talent or skills. This is merely a review of a movie that tried and failed. It tried to be a gory, slasher flick and it only ended up being a mean, bloody mess of a film. With its crass death metal soundtrack and anti-religion message, The Orphan Killer is a flick that does gore for gore sake and not much else.…

They would trip me, bursting out laughing with their friends, jeering, making comments like "It won't hurt you; you will just bounce or roll." Where did kids learn such nasty things.…

    Everyone was gone. That is the only way I can explain it. One day I woke up and no one one was there. I first thought that mom and dad went to work early, but I noticed more peculiar things as the day went by. I opened my car door, and for some reason it was filled with water. The water startled me as it came dripping towards my feet. Along with that, no one was at the bus stop as they usually were. No one was at school either. I came home with nothing to do.

    • 905 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Director Zack Snyder’s “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” took its hype train to terminal velocity with a too-big-to-fail marketing approach that eventually crashed into a cinematic cacophony that might just be best to the deaf viewer. Like dropping names of high-brow friends at a posh party, Snyder lobbed out a pitch some years ago to pin the world’s two most revered superheroes against one another in a sort of theatrical cage match that any unsuspecting moviegoer could sink his or her teeth…
