A fun disaster movie. I enjoyed it, kind of wonder what the other reviewers were talking about. not every movie has to be a big budget theatrical release! Definitely worth adding yo your collection if you enjoy disaster movies. Check it out!

Movie is alot better than most give it credit for, I don't know what people were expecting. It's a adapted from a videogame. Even the Resident Evil movies have their flaws. Check it out, it is a fun movie and Kristanna Loken played a great Rayne!

Awesome movie, if you like the games you will love this movie. Kristanna Loken was awesome as Rayne! It was done very well, the people that don't like it are too close-minded. It's a videogame adaption, they aren't suppose to be mainstream films anyhow!

This was great entry in the series, but sad without the legendary paul walker, however he said and 8th film was guaranteed so here it is. I believe Paul would have been proud of this film. Love that ice charger Dom drives. My only gripe is that the extended cut should have been on the blu-ray/dvd instead of just digitally, but it is what it is I guess. Anyways grab this one if you don't have already have it.

This was in my opinion the best of the original 8 films. Great story, great acting, great special effects. The total package! I never tire of watching this one and you can't go wrong with the deluxe edition. They are working on a direct sequel to this (un-official since the rights are tied up in court still) but looks great, and director of Jason Lives is a consultant for the sequel. Can't wait to see it. But in the mean time check this out.

nothing beats the first 2! these movies are classic Halloween movies, put them in your collection along with Hocus Pocus, Nightmare Before Christmas, and The Halloween Tree to name a few. 3rd halloweentown film was ok, not really worth owning though and the 4th one with the re-castings isn't worth bothering with.

so bad it's just bad! Jeff Fahey and Christian Slater are better than this and should have never been in this travesty of a film. This was nothing more than a cheap attempt to cash in on the History Channel miniseries starring Kevin Costner and the late great Bill Paxton. This film however really looks like a bad wild west show, a really really bad one. Avoid this film at all costs!

Very good film. Kind ofa cousin to the Fast & Furious movies so to speak. Granted it didn't have the insane budget that those did but doesn't hurt it one bit. Rob Cohen who directed the first Fast & Furious film directs this film( even though swapadvd credits someone else) and does a very good job. Definitely worth owning if you can find a copy. I'd put it right with The Fast & Furious movies on the shelf. Legendary actor Dennis Hopper stars as well as, Fred Ward(Tremors & Tremors 2: Aftershocks) and Nadine Velazquez (Biker Boyz). Great action, great story. Add it to your collection.

Better than Ghost Ship. This and Triangle with Luke Perry which came out the year before ghost ship are both better films. The storylines and acting is better overall. The special effects are great despite what some reviewers may say. The only 2 things ghost ship had going for it were a young Emily Browning ( the only star really), and the opening scene. Watch this and Triangle instead.

All around great film. goes good with and Triangle (2001). if you are into haunted ships and horror on the high seas, I highly recommend you get this and the other 2 I mentioned. you must have both of them, just one of them is not enough trust me. This actually came out before Ghost Ship, as did Triangle 2001 and both are way better than Ghost Ship! Also check out Ghost Voyage from around 2007-2008 I think it came out.

One of the worst remakes ever! Freddy is suppose to be a dream demon and he looks like a burnt turtle in this film. Jackie Earle Haley was definitely the wrong choice. I mean they should have never remade it anyways. Robert Englund is Freddy period! It's not like Jason or Michael which can be anyone behind the mask. Freddy is different entirely. Avoid this remake at all costs!

One of the best Scooby Doo movies ever! Right up there with Zombie Island (The first one) and Witch's Ghost! Love everything about it. The Boo Brothers are basically ghost versions of The Three Stooges, whom I Love as much as Scooby Doo. Loved seeing Scrappy in this who we no longer see because of that useless overrated live action film. He is a good character. Also look for Sorell Booke (Boss Hogg from The Dukes Of Hazzard) as the sheriff, and Arte Johnson (Renfield in Love At First Bite) as the butler Farquard. Very funny and great movie to watch that's good for multiple views. Get yourself a copy!

complete crap! don't even bother with this one. If you enjoyed the original this one is nothing like it, every possible thing they could do to screw it up they did. The 13th ghosts follow up fiasco should have been enough to discourage them from making this but this is warner bros we are talking about they aren't known for making smart decisions. This is yet another film to try and fit velma's narrative. Her character needs to go or be toned way down. I mean from what I understand they plan on ruining Reluctant Werewolf next. Warner needs to do it right or stop all together. Avoid this and Curse Of The 13th Ghost at all costs!

wasn't that great and scrappy as the villain was an all around dumb idea. The writer had a vendetta against scrappy so this is the result. Scrappy wasn't a bad character at all. Don't bother with this one. If you must watch Scooby in live action watch the second and much better film.
