hunting for humans in A*List silver screen

That truly did seem to be the theme in this week's science fiction trio.

Quite odd selection for this holiday period, but there ya go!

Amazingly, they're even listed in the order, and on the days, of my viewing them.

It's been a while since AMC got my dance card correct.

Such a nice change of pace!

(Yes, pun intended!)

"Y2K" was the most fun, with a lot of laughs as a bunch of stoners find themselves being pursued - and killed - by their electronic gadgets.

Plus, it had a fabulous soundtrack and a mini-concert of Fred Durst singing George Michael's "Faith" - well done!!!

I think it may have been meant as a horror flick, but it was more of a spoof.

I hope it'll still be around net week so I can watch it again.

"Werewolves" had some unintentional funny moments.

Well, for me it did.

That's because it reminded me of the rather tame horror movies that appeared on TV in the early to mid-1970's.

There was a bit of gore, but, like I said, rather tame stuff by today's standards.

I actually enjoyed being reminded of those late night flicks by Robbin Graves!

So far, that's humans chased by killer robots and humans chased by killer werewolves.

"Kraven The Hunter" was a little different, as it was a Marvel movie, featuring folks I'd never heard of: The Rhino, The Chameleon, The Foreigner, Calypso.

I was mostly there to gawk at Aaron Taylor-Johnson.

 

Oh, and to collect 1000 bonus points from AMC.

Plus, to gawk a bit at Russell Crowe and listen to his Russian accent.

Nice!

But the story of a son of a mobster turning into a killer of mobsters just didn't hold me.

It was good to see once... like "Werewolves"... but I'm done with it.

That's how I felt about "Bonhoeffer. Pastor. Spy. Assassin." the previous week.

The difference is that I knew the movie last week was based on a real person and that it was set during World War II, so I knew going in to it that it would be one and done.

I had hoped for more with the Marvel movie.

Speaking of last week, the only other film seen was "Gladiator II" again.

That was done for 1000 bonus points, too, just as "Kraven" today had been.

Here's hoping for new movies soon at AMC.

I've already seen "Wicked, Part 1", "Moana 2", "Red One", and "Gladiator 2" at least twice each, which is why I took a chance on those  two first movies this week.
