8/10
     (2006)      "While Hostel reeked of xenophobia, 13 notes that often the boogeymen are in our own backyards, and that most are within a few paychecks of falling prey to them." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
6/10
     (2007)      "Like a Hong Kong 'pistol opera' only without any pistols, or shirts. I guess it's more of a 'nipple opera'." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
6/10
    
9
(2009)
     "While it brings the unique and striking vision of Acker to the table, in the end it's not much more than playing with dolls." [movie review]      CampBlood.org   
  
6/10
     (2006)      "While Accepted isn't great, its genuine admiration for the scratch-and-dents of society lends it a certain unexpected sweetness." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
6/10
     (2009)      "Deserves credit for managing to make prep school seem like the most hellish place on the planet, but is at some points hard to watch for all the wrong reasons." [movie review]      CampBlood.org   
  
7/10
     (2006)      "A comedy satire as proudly silly as its awful title." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
5/10
     (2005)      "Hovering between amusing and entirely unnecessary, the remake of The Amityville Horror is not the flat-out disaster it could have been." [movie review]      Bloody Disgusting   
  
4/5
     (2004)      "So funny that you won't care that it has no real plot but boasts more bad wigs than The Lord of the Rings..." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
8/10
     (2005)      "Antibodies is refreshing in that it admits that everyone -- from apple-cheeked youths to ruthless killers -- is on a sliding scale of good-to-evil." [movie review]      Bloody Disgusting   
  
3/5
     (2004)      "Millions of dollars were wasted in Hughes' stumble to infamy, and I'm hard-pressed to get too upset by his romancing starlets or peeing in a bottle." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
7/10
     (2005)      "Like a trip to visit the fascinating relatives you spend the other 364 days of the year pretending you're not related to..." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
8/10
     (2005)      "Buoyed by a crackerjack script, a horrifying villain, and a dramatic momentum that pulls like a dark, deadly undertow -- this is one summer blockbuster to be reckoned with." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
2/10
     (2007)      "It's a perfect title for a film so utterly lacking in worthwhile qualities that there is no logical reason to actually see it." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
6/10
     (2006)      "Would easily qualify as the most aggressively stupid movie of the year had it not been trumped by a movie about NASCAR." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
4/10
     (2006)      "This muddled late-career meditation on Hollywood artifice and ambition only captures brief flashes of the director's former glory. The rest just feels like a bad joke." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
7/10
     (2004)      "Reynolds, Biel, Posey, and Lyonne amble around a warehouse trying to out-snark one another -- call it Blade: The Real World." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
6/10
     (2007)      "One of the most keenly perceptive comedies ever made about straight male bonding, fear of intimacy, and masculinity. Not to mention figure skating." [movie review]      AfterElton.com   
  
3/10
     (2006)      "Zwick wants to have his cake and eat it, too -- and the result is an uneven, overlong bore. Call it Ramifying the Stone." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
8/10
     (2006)      "Esteves's curious multi-strand film carries us to a quietly devastating conclusion." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
9/10
     (1970)      "Unapologetic, ambitious, wonderfully vibrant, and more than deserving of a second chance from those who found it to be an unfair look at the lives of gay men in the 1960s." [dvd review]      AfterElton.com   
  
7/10
     (2007)      "A compelling character study of a man whose ego took down his career, and very nearly much more." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
5/10
     (2006)      "You have no desire to see them either get back together or murder one another - you just want them to leave each other alone. And that's not exactly compelling cinema." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
8/10
     (2008)      "Themes of religious oppression, particularly of gay people, are especially pointed and unfortunately still relevant enough today to sting." [movie review]      AfterElton.com   
  
9/10
     (2005)      "It's such a slow burn that you likely won't even smell the fire until after it has surrounded you... measured subtlety makes this simple story an emotional masterpiece. " [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
0/10
     (2005)      "To endure Chaos, keep repeating: “It’s only a ripoff… it’s only a ripoff…”" [movie review]      Bloody Disgusting   
  
7/10
     (2005)      "Enough to keep my sweet-tooth satisfied, thanks mostly to Johnny Depp’s unbridled lunacy as the master of ceremonies." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
8/10
     (2006)      "Cuaron has once again proven that he is a filmmaker to be reckoned with in both technical prowess and keen, quiet observance" [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
1/5
     (2004)      "...almost had me convinced to convert to Judaism to avoid having to go through anything ever again that even remotely resembles this movie." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
1/5
     (2004)      "Riddick starts the way that all great storytelling should: with a voiceover by an old British woman." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
10/10
     (2005)      "As touching, thrilling, and inspiring as they come – and a welcome return to the kinds of films that make you leave the theatre feeling better than when you entered. " [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
8/10
     (2004)      "Since we only glimpse these personalities when they are threatened, the fun of the movie becomes trying to guess which behavior is genuine, and which is a means of defense." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
5/10
     (2005)      "I'd argue that Constantine could be watched with the scenes rearranged in any order and still make sense, like episodes of The Simpsons." [movie review]      Bloody Disgusting   
  
2/10
     (2009)      "If battering an audience in the face with Jon Favreau's waxed bosoms for 102 minutes now qualifies as comedy, I never want to laugh again." [movie review]      CampBlood.org   
  
5/10
     (1980)      "Is it offensive? Yes and no. It's insensitive, certainly. And I wouldn't want my mother watching it, lest she think I've been in a sling in the meatpacking district for most of my adult life." [movie review]      AfterElton.com   
  
7/10
     (2008)      "An assured, creepy effort that skillfully integrates gay themes and characters into a straight-up horror story." [movie review]      AfterElton.com   
  
7/10
     (2006)      "It's cute, it bucks the trend of high-teching our classics, and it's got moments of visual cleverness and simple, childlike wonder." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
2/5
     (2005)      "Cursed feels like a series of curveballs designed to confuse the audience into thinking they're watching anything other than bad dialogue." [movie review]      Bloody Disgusting   
  
10/10
     (2008)      "From its grim palette to its wonderfully eerie score, a departure from what Hollywood has always told us a superhero film should be ... Complex, unsettling, and rewarding." [movie review]      AfterElton.com   
  
5/10
     (2005)      "It's more Kramer vs. Kramer than Jennifer vs. the Dead Kid in the Sink... still, too-familiar territory lacking an original ghost story." [movie review]      Bloody Disgusting   
  
     (2004)      "In case you missed the memo, it's official: God hates us." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
9/10
     (2006)      "The balance of brutal violence, wildly inappropriate humor, and easy, low-boil romance is nothing short of masterful... a hell of a good time." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
9/10
     (2006)      "A harrowing, brutal piece of work -- my hand was over my mouth for the last 30 minutes, lest I scream like a little girl on fire. Not to be missed." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
4/10
     (2005)      "I’m all for horror fans having their go at the genre and paying respect to the classics - but affection doesn’t equal execution." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
6/10
     (2007)      "Is it sidesplitting? No, but it's cute. Is it wonderfully wicked? No, but it's got a few twists and turns. Is it a classic? Probably not, but it's an encouraging move into a new kind of gay film and a story not often told." [movie review]      AfterElton.com   
  
     (2004)      "The filmic equivalent of a child reading aloud the Dictionary of Filth with the express intent of giving his nanny a heart attack." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
10/10
     (2009)      "Like all great science fiction, District 9 entertains mercilessly even as it challenges us to be better people. Original, urgent and not to be missed." [movie review]      CampBlood.org   
  
0/10
     (2005)      "Every element is off-key, and the cumulative effect is staggering -- think Showgirls with a demon possession (and Elizabeth Berkeley's dancing doesn't count)." [movie review]      Bloody Disgusting   
  
9/10
     (2009)      "A gooey, frenetic, raucous and mind-meltingly clever delight. This fabulously compact little morality tale is the most fun you'll ever have analyzing our economic collapse." [movie review]      CampBlood.org   
  
2/10
     (2005)      "A lapdance, a fifth of cheap whiskey, and a lube job would offer the same elements and be a hell of a lot more fun." [movie review]      Freeze Dried Movies   
  
8/10
     (2007)      "Brutal, but not cruel." [movie review]      AfterElton.com
