Mass listing of the movies simply because I have not been keeping up with posting.
Disturbance: Straight to video sci-fi cheese. A blatant rip off of The Hidden but done with a $100 budget. Aliens come upon Earth because their planet is dying but the only way to them to live on Earth is to take over human bodies. Most decide that is not worth it but a few come to earth anyway and body jump (neon green slime passed between mouths). One alien decides to help earth and is placed in the body of a serial killer.
Live Feed: American tourists are entertainment and meal for a Triad gang. Sex clubs rooms have videos leading to a screening room. After their sexcapades, they are killed, cooked and served to the Triads and their friends.
Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian: Didn't get nearly the hype of the first film. Not sure of how well it holds the story, but is an enjoyable fantasy film. While there are quite a few battle scenes, it's not terribly bloody. The four children return to Narnia when the horn is blown by Prince Caspian who is fleeing his kingdom since his evil uncle wants to kill him. Upon their return, they find that the Narnians were driven to near extinction.
The Golden Compass: Again, I lack in having not read the book. This was a pretty good story but I can definitely understand why the church had it's panties in a twist over the concepts. A bit annoying that it simply kind of ends in the middle of the story while things are still progressing but hopefully a second installment is on it's way soon.
Nightfall: Early 90s film adaptation of the story by Isaac Asimov. Civilization that lives on a planet surrounded by 6 suns so it is always in constant light. Speculation about darkness 1000 years ago with different view points by the scholars and the religious fanatics.
Hercules & Xena The Battle for Mount Olympus (animated): Totally cheesy. Reminds me of Saturday morning cartoons in the 80s based on some of the animation styles. Zeus kidnaps Hercules mom and Hera gets pissed and frees the Titans. Xena tries to help the gods fight since Hercules is sulking and only interested in saving his mom.
