the beast of bray road

i just got through watching two movies and they were both pretty good. the first was Blue Demon and it was about genetically engineered sharks. six sharks were named after the Marx Brothers and the seventh shark, the rogue, was named Red Dog. the military had taken over a project to train sharks to patrol waters for terrorists. the military turned it into a project to arm sharks and blow things up. that would be our military alright...the higher-ups, not the soldiers. i like the characters a lot, though the sharks were phoney. any movie with a Little Person in it has to be quirky. if you have MVP at Hollywood Video, or Netflix, i would recommend it, but don't pay for it.
the second movie was The Beast of Bray Road and it is an Asylum production and, wow this is a first, i actually liked it! i liked the actors, they were pretty good. i liked the twist at the end. the 'creature' was just a guy in a costume, but it wasn't bad. i'm a sucker for creature features. you should check this out and it would be worth a $4 rental if you like this kind of thing. what really made the movie were the actors. the Sheriff was pretty hunky and check out the barmaid Kelly. they got pretty hot together, but alas, they did not go all the way. damn. you may never see me praise an Asylum movie again, but if they make some more movies like this, i just might.

I would try to catch both movies on video. I think I heard something about the second film before and the feedback was pretty good.
