Seems like every Neftlix-made sci-fi film follows the same dark formula. So much so that you can virtually predict the ending just by seeing that it’s a Netflix made flick.
Someone over there must really like this kind of movie.
Made for HBO movie starring Fred Ward with Julianne Moore & Clancy Brown. A pulpy noir urban fantasy yarn set in a late 40’s Los Angeles where magic (and mythical creatures) are real. Ward plays detective H. Philip Lovecraft who gets roped into a search for …wait for it….the Necronomicon.
Huh… I think I “saw” that movie a bunch of times, but still can’t recall what it’s about, other than Angus Young chasing people around with tres kewl spheres with fondue-forks in front. Pretty sure he drove a hearse, too, for whatever reason.
Well I said I wouldn’t do anything from TV but I was caught off guard by a movie I recorded from TMC.
One of my first movies that actually scared me as a kid was “Ghost Story”. I don’t generally give much credence to ghost stories but I just watched “Winchester” which is (loosely) based on the Winchester Mystery House story. It’s a local attraction (San Jose Ca.) that I haven’t gotten around to checking out. Very good, I was surprised at the mediocre rating it got and I’ll probably watch it again tonight. I never watch the same movie 2 days in a row.
