American Gothic (1995)
AG has left me haunted... 10 years later.
Man did CBS blow it. This series was incredible and ahead of its time. I remember making a point to watch it weekly. And how disappointed I was when CBS kept tossing it around like a bastard son. The many nights when I expected it to be on, it wasn't! Sometimes it be 2-3 weeks before they'd air the next episode! Are they sadists? I'm not one of those tools who makes a point to watch shows like Friends and "Must See TV" weekly (I have a life). But American Gothic was different, it called me, and I obeyed it's call. But CBS let us all down and destroyed this wonderfully dark program.
I hope it is released on DVD very soon. Side note: The kid who played Caleb was amazing. Hardy Boy Saun Cassidy- way to go!
Shower of Blood (2004)
Awesome! Must see.
I don't know what you're drinking in Scotland, Jamie, but this movie is brilliant! It's one of the best produced low budget movies I've ever seen.
The visual effects, steady camera work, and great use of shadows was clearly well thought out, unlike most movies in this genre/budget range. Most of the crap out there is just that- crap. Someone holding a camera- hand-held and then they call it a movie. Not this... again well thought out, clearly these guys new what they were doing.
The love scene was very erotic, yet tasteful. Vampires by their very nature are erotic.
I don't care that the story is old. What vampire movie isn't???!!! Hello?! Let's see... you got a vampire, they suck blood. Duh. So never is a vampire movie about the story in the year 2005. It's what you do with it- visually. And this movie was great visually.
Why isn't anyone mentioning how awesome the score and soundtrack are? These are just 2 additional benefits for this movie.
I'm glad I found this movie too. Check it out. Trust me.
