Pearce’s Film Reviews
239 Films have been rated or reviewed by Pearce.
Ring, The (2002)
Take a foreign–language film with an elegantly simple premise, douse it liberally in special effects and over–explanations, turn the scariest ending of all time into "a damp child looked at me" and voila, Hollywood remake.
Pearl (2022)
And the award for Most Acting goes to Mia Goth, whose performance was applauded by people for whom size matters.
Crimson Peak (2015)- Heathcliffe, it's me Cathy, and Jane Eyre, and Rebecca, so warmed–over let me in your window
Jack's Back (1988)
An underrated little psycho thriller that bears absolutely no resemblance to the synopsis above. Best watched with no spoilers though so don't look up what it's really about!
K-20 - Legend Of The Mask (2008)
Inspired by the work of Japanese writer Edogawa Rampo, this is a fun pulp adventure in the vein of '90s movies like The Shadow or The Rocketeer.
Eko Eko Azarak (Wizard of Darkness, Birth of the Wizard, Misa the Dark Angel) (1995)- Proof that a woman can direct a movie that's just as exploitative of female nudity as a man. Also, it's quite good.
Suspiria (1977)
Look if you don't turn it up LOUD you haven't really seen it.
Re-Animator (1985)- Night of the Giving Head.
Grudge, The (Ju-On) (2003)- On a recent rewatch this held up remarkably well, though I think you could probably throw each individual sequence from the first four movies in this series (two directi–to–video, two cinema) and reassemble them in any order.
- DVD $19.95
Pontypool (2008)- Kiss is kill
