94) SHUTTER ISLAND
(2010 dir. Martin Scorsese) 2nd Viewing: July 8 2010
This blu-ray is phenomenal & the film itself only gets better with each viewing. At first it comes off as a standard insane asylum thriller, but if you take a closer look you'll realize just how intricate & deep-seated the focal madness is. And how dangerous a patient with that specific type of psychosis would be. That's where the real horror of the film lies to me; in how people form powerful delusions to deny their reality and personal traumas. I'm honestly starting to think this film might be a masterpiece. The kind with vision the old Hollywood studios used to produce all the time. Bravo, Scor-zah-zah.
93) THE CRAZIES
(2010 dir. Breck Eisner) 3rd Viewing: July 8 2010
Had a movie date tonight with Jessica. She wanted to see this again!
I'll be damned if it's not one of the finer horror films of 2010. You turdburglars at Platinum Dunes take note; this is how you remake a genre classic.
