Red Eye-Feels like this Wes Craven thriller/horror is forgotten. Hell I had forgot about it till I found the dvd cheap at a garage sale 2 weeks ago.
Fun thriller. Sure it ain't top tier Craven but it is better than most of the stuff he made after People Under the Stairs.

THE INVIT​​ATION - Another head scratcher as far as wondering what people expect from a genre film. I really really enjoyed it. Good performances (not an easy hat trick making such broad material believable), a LOT of respect shown to classic vampire cinema, in particular Hammer, absolutely gorgeous lightning and cinematography, and the modern tropes regarding wokeness and privilege are done with balance and add to the narrative rather than distract from it.
For me? And I am an old man who grew up seeing stuff from Hammer and AIP in theaters as they died their last post-THE EXORCIST breathes.
THE INVITATION, for me, is one of the most legit vampire films to hit theaters since 30 DAYS OF NIGHT.
Had a great time with it tonight.

BREAKING starring John Boyega, based on the real life incident of a Marine get who takes a couple hostages, and threatens to blow up a bank if the VA doesn't return money they have duped him on.
Part DOG DAY AFTERNOON and part JOHN Q. Good performances, solid direction.
