Film Filter: Off- Final Destination 5

Final Destination 5 (2011) R


Nicholas D'Agosto, Emma Bell, Arlen Escarpeta


Film Filter: On On a bus trip for a work related conference, Sam envisions a horrific bridge accident, and is able to save the lives of a handful of co-workers.  Realizing that they have escaped death, the group of colleagues must now figure out how to regain their lives back, even if that means taking someone else's.
Things to note: Very exciting 3-D effects, several plot twists, unexpected deaths, (slightly) better acting, story information spoon-fed to audience

Pretty good...if it's viewed in 3-D

Film Filter: Off- The Last Exorcism

The Last Exorcism (2010) PG-13 


Patrick Fabian, Ashley Bell, Iris Bahr


Film Filter: On- When an evangelical minister struggling with his beliefs is sought out for an exorcism, he makes the decision to capture the event on film.  His intent in doing so is to prove that the ritual of exorcisms is unnecessary, and that the possessed individual is only in need of the idea of an exorcism.  Using high tech equipment, hoaxes, and deception, Reverend Cotton Marcus attempts to prove once and for all that exorcisms are irrelevant, although he will ultimately be forced to question many of his beliefs along the way.
Things to note- Filmed in a documentary style, very believable acting, takes a standpoint of mocking exorcisms as opposed to supporting them, most character names are derived from the first name of the actor (most likely to enhance the believable nature of the acting)
