The Bell Witch Haunting

The Bell Witch Haunting
Starring Laura Ramos, Cat Alter, Natalie Burtney, Drew Cash
Directed by Glenn Miller

A family moves to a new house in Tennessee, and almost immediately strange things begin to happen.  They learn that the house was built on the same ground that once belonged to the Bell family, who's well known for being haunted by an evil witch that might've caused one of the family members to die.  Now the witch is back and out for revenge.

If it were possible, this is an even cheaper version of "Paranormal Activity."  Filmed entirely in the now annoying found footage style, this could've been any haunted house movie, but they decided to delve into the Bell witch legacy, and not even in a good way.  The real history is much more fascinating, and terrifying, than this low budget dreck.  The only scary scenes was when someone popped on the screen, and done so in a highly cheap manner.

My Rating: D-

Major Theatrical Releases May 2019 After the hype that is "Avengers: Endgame," May offers a massive collection of differing types of movies, enough to entertain everyone. Here are the major theatrical releases for May 2019. **THERE WILL BE NO SPOILERS** **DATES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE**  The Intruder May 3 Dennis Quaid goes from starring the family-friendly "A Dog's Journey" to playing a total psycho in "The Intruder."  When a young couple purchases a home from Quaid's character Charlie, they didn't realize it came with an addition - Charlie himself, who can't seem to let his old home go.  I don't expect any twists or turns in this tale, and this looks like a film better fit for Lifetime than the big screen.  Long Shot May 3 Charlize Theron stars as Charlotte Field, the current Secretary of State and who's running for President.  Seth Rogen stars as Fred Flarsky, a

Major Theatrical Releases May 2016 May is the start of summer, which means warmer weather, no school, more sunshine, and of course, MAJOR BLOCKBUSTER MOVIES!

The Living Dead Starring Jessica Jane-Stanford, Paul Danan, Aurie 'Styla' Green, Hakan Hassan Directed by Fredi Nwaka What I appreciate the most about horror cinema is the fact that its the easiest genre for an up-and-coming director to direct, and provide a unique vision that's set apart from different genres - in horror, you can make anything if you set your mind to it.  Horror can also blend different genres within itself, producing horror/drama, horror/action, and even horror/comedy, which is the route taken by first-time director Fredi Nwaka's "The Living Dead" (also known in the U.K. as "Are We Dead Yet?") - it's not just a horror film, but also blends action and comedy and produces a worthwhile whole. Madison (Jessica Jane-Stanford), Barry (Aurie 'Styla' Green), Gavin (Paul Danan), Alan (Hakan Hassan) and Parksey (Bradley Turner) are a group of robbers who, after their getaway car breaks down, find themselves in front of a towering
