Psycho 2 (1983): Well worth watching although I think it lost its way a little toward the end. Using the original house and being able to cast Anthony Perkins were big pluses.; DVD $14.95 | Blu-Ray $19.95
Raven, The (2012): The buried alive bits were fine but the acting was very ordinary. John Cusack usually does far better so maybe he was misdirected(?).
A Little Chaos (2014): Kate Winslet once again holds her own among some pretty worthwhile acting talent. The romance doesn't slow the story telling too much although it does weaken a shade over the final stages. The ass licking court scenes are well done.
My Girl (1991): Crucially the kids aren't too annoying and the adult cast is very good. There are one or two genuinely funny moments.
Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007): A catchy tune and 3 endearing characters make it watchable. Lee is fine as the target.
Omen, The (Omen 666) (2006): Not really necessary to remake but Thewlis and Pete P are always good to watch. It relies on sound effects and a heavy musical score to heighten the suspense (plus a bit of wet weather to add to the mood).
Night at the Museum 3:Secret of the Tomb (2014): Even though it is a second sequel it is still worth a watch which is a compliment to the original plot idea.
Tomorrow, When the War Began (2010): The characters let the film down – they don' t give the screenplay much of a chance.
For Your Eyes Only (1981): Excellent stunt work and the set designs make it worthwhile.
Somebody to Love (1994): More than useful cast which also includes Buscemi & Tucci – the film has some good moments but if it wasn't for Rosie P it would have fallen over long before it did.
