Children of the Corn is by no means a good movie or anything, but the cheesiness does make it entertaining even if there isn’t anything particularly scary.

Deep Red 4K Ultra HD Review
Deep Red, flaws and all, is a top-tier giallo film co-scripted and directed by horror-maestro Dario Argento, featuring some impressive gore and make-up effects.
Scream 4K Ultra HD Review
Overall, I can’t say it enough that the original Scream is right up there with Halloween and Friday the 13th with an amazing cast ensemble and a production that overcame the odds and made an iconic movie.
Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins 4K Ultra HD Review
Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins wasn’t a big disappointment since I went in with zero expectations. Although Henry Goulding was good in the lead role, he didn’t get much to work with both with the script and supporting cast.

The Suicide Squad 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Review
The Suicide Squad might not hit the levels of something like Guardians of the Galaxy (still an MCU favorite of mine), but it does take the material in the right direction when compared with Ayer’s 2016 original with a better story and characterization.

The Protégé 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
The Protégé isn’t quite as good compared to Anna but I still was consistently entertained even with some of the flaws, which were overcome thanks to solid direction from Martin Campbell and a good core cast with Michael Keaton, Maggie Q and Samuel L. Jackson.
Space Jam: A New Legacy 4K Ultra HD Review
Space Jam: A New Legacy isn’t all that good but to be perfectly fair, neither was the 1995 original, though 14/15 year old me probably loved it (don’t have much memory, must’ve been a short-lived love).

A Clockwork Orange 4K Ultra HD Review
A Clockwork Orange might be a classic and I can see some of its attributes with the style and acting from Malcolm McDowell, but for myself I found it difficult to sit through, mainly for a lack of interest in what was going on.
Inglourious Basterds 4K Ultra HD Review
Inglourious Basterds is a standout film amongst the other greats from Quentin Tarantino with sharp dialogue and incredible performances, especially from Chrisoph Waltz.
The Shawshank Redemption 4K Ultra HD Review
The Shawshank Redemption is a movie I really should re-watch every other year if not every year as it’s an extraordinary and perfect film from the script to direction to the phenomenal performances from Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman.

F9: The Fast Saga 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
F9: The Fast Saga might have some insane scenes but not quite in the good way. There are some okay little moments like seeing some old character reunite, however this is missing the magic with the series’ height: the chemistry with Vin Diesel and the late Paul Walker.

Two Evil Eyes 4K Ultra HD Review
Two Evil Eyes puts together two of the most prominent horror directors, George Romero and Dario Argento and while the movie is far from perfect, these were at least entertaining.
Star Trek: The Original 4-Movie Collection 4K Ultra HD Review
The Star Trek: The Original 4-Movie Collection is a solid enough of a set and does have respectable 4K video along with the audio which is likely the same from past Blu-ray releases, even so still high quality.

Dune 4K Ultra HD Review
Dune wasn’t a movie that I found incredibly engaging or even entertaining from a story or character standpoint, however I can at least appreciate some of the more technical aspects with respectable effects work for its time, and some even stand out today.
Zack Snyder’s Justice League 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Review
Zack Snyder’s Justice League is an okay, if not exceptional lengthy, film and well worth checking out, especially if you’re a DC fan or just curious, plus splitting it into parts does help if you don’t want to watch in one sitting.
