"Bedevilled" is another and once again brilliant tale of revenge coming from South Korea which is in the vein of already now legendary masterpieces such as "Oldboy" and "I saw the devil". What distinguishes this movie from the other ones and justifies...
This cult movie is a must see for any fan of humorous movies even though it won't beat "The naked gun" series or the Monty Python movies such as "Life of Brian". It's maybe on the same level as the "Vacation" series minus the cultural part of those ones....
I know that one shouldn't take this kind of movies too serious and the main public of this kind of films might still be twelve year old boys and girls that are excited to see a movie with many sexual allusions, exaggerated gore scenes and absurd slapstick...
I was really looking forward to watch this movie. I thought that the story could be interesting. I think that Roman Polanski is normally a great director and has done some masterpieces like "The pianist". Pierce Brosnan is a actor with whom I have grown...
A friend of mine told me that this movie was worth a watch and that himself as well as his whole family had adored this funny movie. As I am fan of spy or police parodies in the key of "Mad Mission", "The naked gun" or "Austin Powers", I was looking forward...
One friend of mine, who was normally likes movies that I like, absolutely wanted to show me this movie and said that it would be a funny and very gore horror movie that wouldn't not take itself serious at all. My friend had presented me "Shaun of the...
I remember that I have seen this mini-series on an autumn night because there was nothing else on the television. They showed the whole three parts of this mini-series in one single movie. I didn't expect much from this film and I began really slow paced...
It took a full decade for the the People's Republic of China's pioneer heavy metal band to come around with a third and until now last album. While their first record was groundbreaking with its fusion of Western rock music and Chinese folk sounds and...
OSI are an abbreviation for “Office of Strategic Influence” which was also the band’s first release nine years ago. The group is composed of the two famous Progressive Metal musicians Kevin Moore who has been in Dream Theater as well as in Fates Warning...
The record of the band Onmyo-Za attracted me because of the stylish band photo, the unusual cover artwork and many positive experiences with diversified, stunning and sometimes surreal Japanese metal bands from classic groups such as Loudness or X Japan...
Mêlée des Aurores is a side project of the famous Quebec underground black metal band Chasse-Galerie. Their first release called Errances is a piece of calm and atmospheric black metal that has some addicting interludes with some folk vibes, a very hypnotizing...
The band name sounds like kitsch, the cover artwork looks like kitsch, the music sounds like kitsch but Magic Kingdom from Belgium eventually deliver some truly entertaining high quality symphonic power metal kitsch. The special edition of this record...
“A pale horse named death” is a band with a very cool name and a great album cover that plays first of all a melancholic mixture of gothic and doom metal in the key of “Type 0 Negative”. Even though the influence of this band is omnipresent and weighs...
This album is a truly hypnotizing and chilling record. Amorphis moved away from their experimental death metal roots and passed through a short transitional era to arrive at a very progressive and experimental point of their career. This album has many...
The first album of "The Dogma" is a dark, symphonical and quite diversified album that mostly touches the Power and Symphonic Metal genre with some slightly Gothic influences. The first track and title song already shows the diversity of the band in one...
This is In Extremo's second live release and first live release of their Medieval Rock material and I was really looking forward to purchase this album as I've known the band as a really good live band. But the performance and especially the fans during...
This is a solid drama about true events that happened in a working and correction camp of young criminals on a lost island of Norway. The story tells the acts of rebellion, vengeance and escape of young males in 1915 when a paedophile supervisor comes...
The young German band Kingdom of Salvation plays a rather melodic Death Metal with some Thrash Metal influences. It is very easy to get an approach to this solid debut album as the band is very diversified but always straight and heavy. The band opens...
Let me first tell you that this album has nothing to do with metal, it is simply a progressive rock album. But that's not a bad thing at all. The main problem of this album is, as strange as it sounds, its perfection. Let me explain you this antithesis....
Even though this movie is not as great as "Good cop, bad cop" and, as some critics said, copies a little bit the typical American comedy action cop movies or series like "Beverly Hills Cop" or "Rush Hour", this one is still one of the better movies of...
I really have a lot of difficulties to appreciate modern movies about vampires as the "Underworld" saga, the "Nochnoy dozor: Night watch" and its sequels or the Blade saga. I'm a fan of old and sometimes even modern horror movies ("30 days of night" is...
On its third output entitled Symphony Masses: Ho Drakon Ho Megas, Therion slowly starts to sound the way that most fans of the band are used to. This album still features some death and gothic metal influences however, especially in the form of powerful...
Lord Symphony is a promising new underground band on the rise. The band hails from Solo, Central Java, in Indonesia and mixes traditional European power metal in the key of Gamma Ray with a more epic and symphonic touch inspired by Rhapsody Of Fire, and...
Holy Dragons is a power metal band from Almaty, Kazakhstan that is a lot better than its cheesy band name might suggest you at first sight. The band plays in fact power metal with grounded vocals and guts. They skip all unnecessary stuff such as narrations...
"Already Dead... But Alive!" is the debut EP of the Laval based progressive power metal band Eclipse that is now called Eclipse Prophecy. When I saw the Quebeckers in concert three years ago, they were quite ashamed when I asked them if they had put out...
