I had not seen this one before and it was fairly decent! The story is simple, in that another group of camp counsellors are opening another new camp on Crystal Lake and Jason shows up, but the acting is quite good from some of the cast! The production quality is above average for what you would expect from a fan film. It's not quite Never Hike Alone (2017) but that fan film is the exception and not the rule.

Some of the kills are off screen with bodies discovered later but there are some solid special make-up effects here too and for a 60 minute story it breezes along. If you're itching for a Jason fix and haven't seen this yet, you could absolutely do worse!

Clearly made by those with a passion for the Friday the 13th franchise, My Special Boy is a fun bitesized homage to the most iconic slasher from the 80s.

Gotta give some credit here. The framing narrative for this anthology, that of a random bloke surfing an extreme porn site on the deep web, is a very interesting idea. Unfortunately, it is also very boring to watch a guy as he is watching porn on the internet. An idea more interesting in concept than execution, I think.

Well this sure lives up to the XXX in that title. There is straight up some pornography in this. Fully visible anal fisting and masturbation. Definitely not a film to watch with your parents.

There are some decently shocking bits and pieces here towards the end I suppose, but there is even more pretentious torture porn nonsense that spends more time showing people scream and squirm than actually anything shocking. If the videos showcased on that dude's favorite porn site are indeed the grimmest stuff to be found on the deep web, then I suppose the deep web is a bit more tame than I thought. If the most shocking content to be found there is truly just a bunch of gay men fisting each other, then I can probably handle it.

Eh... A bit dull. I suppose if you're into the whole shock horror thing this may be one for your completionist list.. But general audiences will find little reason to seek this one out, even for the sake of intentionally upsetting themselves.

I love Our Town! I first found it when I was visiting the UK and fell in love with the country and this amazing slice of life in Great Yarmouth.

The acting is unbelievable, and the characters are so lovable and complex, I'm hooked for life. I especially love Karen and her family, and Mick and his brood are amazing as well. I laughed and loved every minute of the Liam and Stacey chemistry, and I can't imagine how it can be rekindled, but wish it would! I'm so happy to see Rocky's complete metamorphous, and reinvention, and I have hopes for Karen to become softened and more likable as time goes on. I have to say I'm glad Troy is gone. He was just so harsh and pretty much a bad person. I love that most every character has a good heart deep down.

So whatever happens next, I'm up for the ride with all the great people of Norfolk. Love them all!!!!
