Aunt Rose (2005)
Mediocre at best....wait, does that make any sense???
My wife has a knack for renting these type of extremely low budget horror movies. So I have seen a fair share. At first I though "here we go again, at least I will get to bed at a decent hour."
Well the start of the movie was, well... bad. I was ready to give up on it when it took a sick twist. Which sparked my interest for another few minutes. Although poorly acted by a majority of the cast two or three sorta put the rest on their shoulders and waded through some really, really bad dialog.
Here is where I give the movie credit. Somewhere down the line I actually wanted to watch the thing to the end. And felt the need to see what happened. So, to me they accomplished something. Like a said most of the time I will give up on these things after 15-20 minutes.
Granted there are times watching this movie where you will just shake your head, but gosh darn it, its worth a watch, if your extremely board with nowhere to go, and about an hour and a half to kill.
A History of Violence (2005)
Not near as well written as I would have hoped.

I was disappointed in this movie, yet still gave it a 5 out of ten stars; because, hey, the violence was at least good in this movie. As Everything else was average at best.
For me the movie started to go down hill when he states that "he thought he killed Joey years ago in the desert." I told myself, oh no, they aren't taking this approach are they? And pretty much they did. I just don't buy a person with multi-personality disorder who is / was ultra violent at one time, can go years while living a Mr. Rogers-esk lifestyle with no other hints at violence. Hard to swallow in my opinion.
I also rolled my eyes when after he tries choking his wife on the staircase, she gets...incredibly horny? and does him right there. I also thought that the Richie character was poorly acted. The whole thing just starts go get lame and predictable as any B movie from half way on.
Invincible (2001)
Not good, not good at all
I kept waiting for something cool to happen...it never did. Zane's pulled of his tired dialog rather well. Heck it even got a chuckle or two out of me. (Hence the 3 rating) I rented this movie with low expectations. I figured it would be somewhat stylish with some decent fight scenes. Yet it wasn't. Somebody mentioned they might have been trying to push a series for cable T.V. I agree, the movie had a feel what the Highlander series must have been like, Even though i've only seen the advertisements. But I suspect Highlander was better. I think the target audience must have been hard core nerds into that corny holy vs evil apocalyptic showdown. No offense intended to the nerds of the world, I consider myself one of them.
