Most Thought-provoking film
The Usual Suspects
Why?- The ending really presents something to get
your head around. You'll still be picking up on little things even
after several viewings.
Goriest Film
Evil Dead
Why?- There's something about decomposing zombies,
thumbs in eye-sockets and hands exploding out of chests that makes Evil
Dead a puke-inducing film.
Scariest Film
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
Why?- Seriously disturbing. What other film
has decomposing grannies kept in living rooms, double-faced psycho's and
zombie-granddads?
Funniest Film
The Frighteners
Why?- Despite not being particularly hilarious, this
is the funniest film on here. Reservoir Dogs and Shallow Grave were
just a bit too shocking.
Best Action Film
The Matrix
Why?- One Word. Bullet-Time. Or is that two
words?
Worst Action Film
Universal Soldier
Why?- Robo-van-damme is just as bad as
regular-van-damme. That enough reason for you? If not
then check out essential viewing.
Best Horror Film
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
Why?- Because it's a milestone in movie-making
history. Practically every horror movie since then was influenced by
it in some way or another.
Worst Horror Film
The Haunting
Why?- Because it's not in the slightest, teeniest
bit frightening.
Best Sci-fi Film
Aliens
Why?- Because it's violent, over the top and very
exciting. Whilst The Matrix is technically Sci-fi, I decided that
Aliens was more conventional science fiction.
Worst Sci-fi Film
Robocop 2
why?- I almost fell asleep watching it.
Best Thriller
The Usual Suspects
Why?- Because of the ending.
Worst Thriller
Virus
Why?- Event Horizon on a boat, anyone? Hello??
Anyone at all???
Best Psychological Thriller
Stir Of Echoes
Why?- Unlike the Sixth Sense, Stir Of Echoes has a
much better pace, and as a result is much more exciting and thrilling.
Worst Psychological Thriller
Nope, no really bad ones yet.
Best Film Of The Seventies
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
Why?- Mainly because there aren't many other 1970's
films reviewed on Pulse Cinema.
Best Film Of The Eighties
Aliens
why?- Because it's one of the only 2 1980's films to
receive five stars yet on Pulse Cinema.
Best Film Of The Early Nineties
Speed
Why?- Because it was original, explosive and very
exciting.
Best Film Of The Mid-Nineties
The Usual Suspects
Why?- It's incredibly gripping, very dark and
extremely satisfying. Did I ever mention it had a good ending?
Best Film Of The Late-Nineties
The Matrix
Why?- Dazzling special effects, many discussion
issues, and, of course, Bullet Time!
Worst Film
Scream Bloody Murder
Why?- See Essential Viewing
