Netherworld Cinema: Fertile Ground 2011 [Full-Movie]

Rated R for nudity, violence and profanity. The nudity isn't particularly obtrusive and the pseudo-sex is pretty toned down, although predictable.

The cast puts in good performances. The plot is predictable. The special effects are cheesy overall, although the miscarriage scene is striking and disturbing.

Overall rating 2.5 out of 5 stars. I've certainly seen worse, but I've definitely seen better.

Netherworld Cinema: The Silence of the Lambs

I'm a fan of horror, but I prefer monsters and atmosphere to "slasher" type horror, so I never watched this movie. It was my son, who was born just a year before Silence of the Lambs came out, who recommended it to me. He's not big on slasher flicks either, but he said that the characters are so well crafted and portrayed that it's worth watching. He also said that it isn't a gratuitous "slasher flick" in spite of the subject matter, it's more of a psychological thriller.

I would have to agree on both counts.

Anthony Hopkins is utterly terrifying in this role. He's one of those actors who is more frightening when he plays "evil" because he looks so completely normal and nondescript, like someone you'd see in the grocery store. Or the liquor store, buying a nice Chianti.

I'm working on a story that I describe as the illegitimate child of the Lifetime Movie Network and the Chiller Channel. This is what I'm listening to.
