4-0 out of 5 stars I love the movie
I would like to see a preview of the movie demon wind please.

4-0 out of 5 stars A good scary movie
when I first saw this movie I thought it was really scary it still is scary think about it being trapped there with zobmies and you could become possessed by a demon too.

3-0 out of 5 stars Could Have Been Better
This film to me was one of those "Almost" films. Almost, but no cigar. Not much thought in the storyline, and the acting was somewhat weak. To myself, it was like an Evil Dead, Night of the Living Dead, and a touch of Friday the 13th, ripoff. Friday the 13th, meaning at the begining of this film, with the old man, Harcourt, telling them not to go there, to stay away if they know what's good for them, etc. But then again, there are quite a few movies that do that. The movie starts with this couple in a farmhouse in the year 1931. She's praying and whatnot, while candles burn in the house, as well as in the center of a pentagram, while demons are screaming,"you can't keep us out". It seems that this farmhouse is some gateway to hell, and grandma has some spell that keeps them at bay. Until this night. They seemed to have possessed her husband, and all hell breaks loose. Then we skip to present day.So, here we have a young man, his girlfriend, and a couple of car-loads of their friends, in the middle of nowhere, in search of a rural farmhouse, where the lead man, Cory's grandparents had suffered a horrible fate, almost 60 yrs. ago.It seems Cory is determined to find out what or whom killed them.(pretty stupid reason wanting to find out after all these years, but hey, it's a movie) When they find the farmhouse, a couple of the girls, mainly Molly, feels some bad vibes there.Cory, determined to find out what happened to the grandparents, does not really care about the bad vibes, and decides to investigate inside the house.There, what was left of it, is everything in place the same night his grandparents were murdered. (even the beautifully cooked turkey, that still looks like it just came out of the oven, I'd like to know where you can buy a turkey like that, that stays that good sitting around for 60 yrs.) Practically all the stuff in there looked brand new. It must have been some great weather conditions to keep all that stuff looking like that. Could'nt the makers of this movie at least thrown some dirt on stuff to look like it's been sitting around for years? Anyway, strange things start happening. These 3 little girl ghosts, demons, or whatever they are, appear and takes one of the girls.So, they deceide it's time to leave, but the cars will not start. They decide to walk, but then a mysterious fog keeps coming while they are walking, and takes them right back to the farmhouse.Seems there is no escape, and they systematically start getting bumped off. After being killed, they come back as "DEMONS", and go after the living that remain, at the farmhouse. (Kind of sounds like Evil Dead to me). This movie, I think, could have been alot better, if there was more gore, and made a little more sense.The acting was typical b-rated I guess. About as corny as you're gonna get. There's some decent one-liners, some slimy, gorey effects, but just not enough. The make-up was pretty impressive though. That I did like.All in all though, the movie was not that great. Nothing new presented here. Like I said earlier, you can definetly see that they relied heavily on copying Evil Dead. Personally, I would skip this one, and go buy Evil Dead if you haven't seen it yet.The only reason I gave this 3 stars was for the great make-up, and special effects. Otherwise, i can't say I enjoyed it. I bought it after reading the reviews on here about it.It sounded pretty good, but I was pretty dissatisfied overall.

3-0 out of 5 stars Pleasant suprise!
I didn't expect much of this movie, particularly after seeing the hologram packaging, but it turned out to be _really_ good. It has some nice touches, some bizarre twists, and some really likable characters. It did have me scratching my head from time to time (why does the power of good imbue you with a troll head? ), but it was altogether a good romp of a film. The magician duo and their last stand against pressing hoards of zombies is just a classic moment. If you're a horror fan, you'll get a kick out of this film.

3-0 out of 5 stars Night of the Living Dead and The Evil Dead put together!
This turned out to be a neat horror film with descent gruesome effects. Eric Larson and Francine Lapensee did a fairly good job in their roles. We also have good supporting roles by Sherry Bendorf (Who starred in a sick, gory, pointless, and disgusting teenage slasher flick "Slaughterhouse", and did a better job on this one)and Richard Gabai (Famous for his lame cheesy comedy flicks "Assault of the Party Nerds " and "Virgin High"), who both did a fairly good job in this movie, which is "Evil Dead" and "Night of the Living Dead" in one, but alot better, with a better storyline! ...

2-0 out of 5 stars Lost Platoon
Lost platoon I thought was a LOST BOYS/NEAR DARK/PLATOON type of movie. The concepts are somewhat there, the actors are not though. The acting is very bad, the production ... there's not much blood for a movie that's suppose to be compared to Platoon. It has a good concept but it could have been done a hundred times better...I found it very boring. Some like some may not. This is one person who did not like it.

4-0 out of 5 stars At Last! A Truly Different Vampire Film!
This is a truly different vampire film. The premise is there is a platoon of vampire soldiers that travel from war to war, century to century, tipping the scales of wars in the name of defeating evil. In the movie this platoon is trying to tip the scales for the greater good in the civil war in Nicaragua. They meet up with a reporter who last crossed paths with them when he was a soldier in World War 2. We eventually learn that they had saved his life in that war and continue to keep him alive in this one as they battle the evil dictator and his deranged lady love who are at the heart of the problem. The movie itself is worth watching although by no means what one would call a polished production by anybody's definition of the word. For diehard fans of vampire films this is one that shouldn't be missed. At least it's a completely different story line than the usual worn out themes of the vampire cinema. Vampires using their powers for the good of mankind . . . what a concept! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Dr.Caligari; The best cult film since Cafe Flesh
If you like artistic,witty,cult films then Dr.Caligari is for you. Director Stephen Sayadian has done it again! He has managed to make a unique cult film on a budget that some directors spend on catering. Sayadian's use of color,sets and lighting are all masterful, not to mention his original directorial style. Dr.Caligari is the final installment of the Sayadian cult film genre. From Nightdreams to Cafeflesh to Dr.Caligari,it is time to see Sayadian direct a big budget movie. We all will be delighted,surprised and entertained. *****stars-"I know your watching me"

5-0 out of 5 stars holy something or other
My friend said that he looked everywhere for a copy of this, and now I understand why. Its impossible to find, but if you find a copy grab it under any and all circumstances! If you are at all interested in the insane, the psychadelic, the macabre, then this is the movie for you. Body swapping, drugs, giant tongues, electroshock junkies...its totally unique. I cant believe such an incredible film is not being reproduced by loads. It is cerainly subculture du jour.

5-0 out of 5 stars Classic Cult Film surreal, sick, and sexual!
1989s Cult Comedy "Dr Caligari" Lets us peek into the surrealistic world of psychiatrist, mad woman, Dr. Caligari.
She continues mind bending experiments inspired by that of her grandfather, the original Dr.Caligari.
She treats her patients like lab mice, and deals with swaping patients psychoses with each other. Strange sexual fantasies, Canibalism, and the weird psychopathic musical score really play at bending your'e view of reality. The movie is written like a strange piece of poetry, every line is magic!
This movie is not for the faint of heart and is really for a certain demented kind of individual...Think "Frankenhooker", "Basketcase", "Cafe Flesh", this film joins in that twisted kind of sensibilities!
Utterly briliant! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Brilliant 1980's "B" Horror Movie
Since the first time I saw this, I have been an avid fan of this over looked, would-be "Cult Classic". The story line is typical. A down trodden and geeky youth, sells his soul to the local voodoo priestess, and in turn gains incredible Electric Guitar skills, A fancy house with three other equally cursed women, who also sold their souls for various reasons, and a position in a rising Metal Band, "Spastic Colon". The name of the Band alone is awesome! The catch is, he must feed on the living to keep his powers and immortality. There is a minor dramatic love-conflict, in that he desires "the other Girl", in this case played by Traci Lords. It is a fun movie to watch with a beer in your hand, and to just get your mind off of things.
This movie is hilarious if you approach it with the attitude you do all "B" Horror films.

3-0 out of 5 stars SEX,DRUGS,AND ROCK'N'ROLL!!!
If you like girls in leather,guitar solos,and gratuitous death scenes than this is the movie for you.It's straight out of the eighties and the thing that surpised me the most was that Traci Lords accualy kept her clothes on!Don't worry though it has lots of groupie scences were they just can't seem to keep their clothes on.The main charector has to eat people to stay alive so it's a cannibalistic gorefest threw most of the movie.I would recommened this film to anyone with a good sense of humor and everyone who has ever dreamed of what it would be like to be a rock star! ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Plot finally outweighs the action.
'Cradle 2 the Grave' looks like it would be the typical martial arts action flick. But there is very little martial arts, and I thought the action was rather laid back as well. Seems that the Hollywood people are beginning to realize that there is room in the industry for action films with good stories and plots.

In 'Cradle', DMX portrays Tony Fait--a high-tech thief who goes into a building one expects to be well-guarded and steals fifty black diamonds. Of course, he has help. This is one of the best opening sequences I have ever seen. Perfectly timed.

Jet Li plays Su, an agent from Taiwan. He also wants the weird, black diamonds. So does everyone else. Fait and Su team up when Fait's daughter is kidnapped. All of this leads to the climax--another well timed cut between three fight sequences.

The movie only goes bad during the end credits. But I am giving this film five stars because I really enjoyed Anthony Anderson, who finally tones down and plays a more serious role--and he is able to remain funny at the same time.

5-0 out of 5 stars Like action flicks? C2G does not disappoint!
Popular rapper DMX has teamed up in an earlier martial arts film with Steven Segal, and has stepped his role in action films up a notch with martial arts superstar Jet Li, who has (to my mind)established himself as one of the greatest martial arts stars of our time.

DMX's role is Tony Fait, a smooth (but somewhat excitable)master thief. He and his crew (including the lovely Gabrielle Union and his partner-in- crime from the afore-referenced "Exit Wounds" Anthony Anderson) break into a diamond exchange, and steal a cache of black diamonds. They were created by the Taiwanese government, and when agitated (kinda like what we saw as the principal weapon in the fifth Bond flick "Diamonds Are Forever") unleash incredible energy. They were originally stolen by the real bad guy Ling (Mark Dacascos), who intends to auction them off to a room full of worldwide nogoodnicks. Ling then abducts DMX's baby girl to ransom them back. And as they say, it is ON.

You cannot have these guys together without great fight scenes, and this movie does not disappoint. Li has an incredible nonchalance about himself, and actually fights (and easily handles, of course) his first few adversaries with one hand in his pocket! He has to use both hands, though, when he ends up in the middle of a brawl with a crew of Ultimate Fighters. Of course, he can, and does, without raising much of a sweat (but he does get around to tossing around a midget as a "weapon").

Just as he did in Exit Wounds, Tom Arnold provides some comic relief (among his best lines: "I cannot read Chinese, but I know cop in every language").

Forget about the folks who dog out this movie. The acting is just fine. This script does not call for Meryl Streep, and neither is it incredibly thought provoking screenplay. It does not need to be. It doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is, a slammin', ultra-violent, retribution filled, sexy action film. While I thought at first that the one-handed fight scenes were a bit much, as another reviewer noted, it does show another side of the virtuosity of Jet Li. And I don't really care whether Kelly Hu (bad-guy Ling's equally ultra-fine sidekick) would have beat down Gabrielle Union in two seconds "in real life". The two of them on the screen is worth seeing, in my humble opinion.

Like action movies? Then this one is for you. Enjoy it for what it is, and you will have spent a great ninety minutes.

2-0 out of 5 stars yawn............................................
dmx knows his tired rap act is through,so now hes trying to spread his tired image into movies.is it any wonder his movies(AND EVERY MOVIE OF THIS KIND)barely make it to see a second weekend?the saving grace here is jet li(a minimal save).jet li is also in a massive decline and proved that action also needs acting/believable plot.every rapper acts the same way,they are interchangable/easily forgotten.since i rented this,im not so upset.can you imagine how the crowd was during and after movie?rowdy and uncontrollable as if they were on prison leave.to some extent,you can tell the charactor of a person by what entertains them.im pretty sure the males in the audience couldnt wait to be dmx tough and start some nonsense.we all know how tough guys are....tough from a distance and only with alot of backup.typical and pitifull.any monkey can direct movies this horrible,but how can people actually rush to see this?so very sad...............................

3-0 out of 5 stars dissapointing
Only saw this movie because I'm a Jet Li fan. This is definately not one of his best movies, probably because he is redelegated to the role of sidekick. Some fights were decent but story wasn't very intertaining. DMX is only good at playing one role-gangbanger. Maybe he should stick to his day job.

3-0 out of 5 stars A Solid Action Film
"Cradle 2 the Grave" stars Jet Li and DMX as an odd couple duo who must get back a package of black diamonds from a rogue Taiwanese intelligence agent. DMX plays Fait, a master thief who undertakes a very high-paying job to steal some black diamonds from a very high security vault. Jet Li plays the Taiwanese intelligence agent Su who has to get them back.

At first Fait and Su are opponents after the diamonds. When they are taken by Ling (Mark Dacascos) they team up to retrieve them. Su wants the diamonds and Fait wants his daughter Vanessa (Paige Hurd) back. Ling has kidnapped her as leverage against Fait.

"Cradle 2 the Grave" also stars Anthony Anderson, Tom Arnold, Gabrielle Union, and Drag-On as Fait's assistants, willing and forced. They stage a raid on a deserted airfield where Ling is holding Fait's daughter and the diamonds.

As far as martial arts movies go, "Cradle 2 the Grave" isn't bad. Many of the fight scenes are too well choreographed though and far too Matrixy in the way the actors bodies seemingly mock gravity. I seriously doubt that Jet Li can throw a 200 pound man about 20 feet through the air. This movie also makes the horrendous mistake of having one guy fight about 15 other guys one at a time. Just once I'd like to see all 10 or 15 guys jump the hero at one time and see how he gets out of it. I know that if I were one of those 15 guys, I'd be looking to take a cheap shot while he's working over one of the other guys.

My only real problem with this film is the title. What exactly are they referring to when they call it "Cradle 2 the Grave". Ususally that term is reserved for discussions about Swedish social programs. At no time in this movie did Jet Li and DMX expound upon the benefits of an all-encompassing social safety net vis-a-vis the social benefits of a low-tax economic policy to foster long-term wealth production and distribution. Then again, the movie producers didn't even have enough time to spell out the word 'to'; so, I doubt they had the time to work such a policy discussion into the movie. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars Pure Rocky Road Trash! It doesn't deserve a star!
I can't believe I watched the whole thing! This is a HUGE load of pants! It's so bad it's on my top ten list of worst movies of all time.Joe Lara is a great actor but he was COMPLETELY wasted! Every other actor was just plain awful.They were reduced to such garbage.The script and storyline are seriously PADDED! And Joe looked like a major fag in that white leotard.I must admit that the FX were decent,but the film is sooooooooooo terrible. It's as boring as hell and is so heinous that it's laughable.The makers of this movie should go to a maximum security facility and a million dollar fine! The film is far too gory and the body count is WAY too high.What a pathetic waste! Rated R-contains gruesome,gory violence,strong profanity and a scene of strong sexuality.

1-0 out of 5 stars A waste!
Shame on Joe for wasting his fabulous talent in this movie!Decoda was undeveloped,and not the brightest. As a cop, he should've done his job not beg permission to dispatch Slash from Jamison who was a total idiot.Only after being hologrammed did Decoda get the job done when he could've taken care of him much sooner!The fight scenes and seeing Joe in a beard changing his look made this movie barely palatable.He looked horrid in that white leatard because white is just not his color and it was just too tight in certain places. The only redeeming quality was his destroying Slash which in my opinion took too darn long.How dare Evan Lurie give his character substance and leave the others to suffer. Evan Lurie who wrote this movie should've given himself a ticket! ... Read more

This was a good film all around. Though it was a low budget film it had a good story line. The action was beleivable through most of the film. Cynthia has some good passion shots in this film that you don't see much of in her other films. I think this is one of the best films Cynthia has done thus far. I think Cynthia enjoyed doing this film because her character is convincing.
This is worth owning...

3-0 out of 5 stars Don the Dragon returns
This was an average movie with the one true standout being that Paulo Tocha(Paco the Tai fighter from Bloodsport, Born to defence ect.) is here to be the for hide tough guy who doesn't get to display any of his Tai fighting skill and gets his neck snapped. Bad use of talent if you ask me. Don the dragon offers his standard fare as usual.

5-0 out of 5 stars Don Wilson is your god and mine!!!!
Any fan of B grade martial arts movies knows who Don "The Dragon" Wilson is. This is on par with the other 6 Bloodfist movies. You won't get much from this flick but it has Don kicking people in the face so what more do you need. Hit MUTE and add your own dialogue, it's twice as good.

5-0 out of 5 stars Plot finally outweighs the action.
'Cradle 2 the Grave' looks like it would be the typical martial arts action flick. But there is very little martial arts, and I thought the action was rather laid back as well. Seems that the Hollywood people are beginning to realize that there is room in the industry for action films with good stories and plots.

In 'Cradle', DMX portrays Tony Fait--a high-tech thief who goes into a building one expects to be well-guarded and steals fifty black diamonds. Of course, he has help. This is one of the best opening sequences I have ever seen. Perfectly timed.

Jet Li plays Su, an agent from Taiwan. He also wants the weird, black diamonds. So does everyone else. Fait and Su team up when Fait's daughter is kidnapped. All of this leads to the climax--another well timed cut between three fight sequences.

The movie only goes bad during the end credits. But I am giving this film five stars because I really enjoyed Anthony Anderson, who finally tones down and plays a more serious role--and he is able to remain funny at the same time.

5-0 out of 5 stars Like action flicks? C2G does not disappoint!
Popular rapper DMX has teamed up in an earlier martial arts film with Steven Segal, and has stepped his role in action films up a notch with martial arts superstar Jet Li, who has (to my mind)established himself as one of the greatest martial arts stars of our time.

DMX's role is Tony Fait, a smooth (but somewhat excitable)master thief. He and his crew (including the lovely Gabrielle Union and his partner-in- crime from the afore-referenced "Exit Wounds" Anthony Anderson) break into a diamond exchange, and steal a cache of black diamonds. They were created by the Taiwanese government, and when agitated (kinda like what we saw as the principal weapon in the fifth Bond flick "Diamonds Are Forever") unleash incredible energy. They were originally stolen by the real bad guy Ling (Mark Dacascos), who intends to auction them off to a room full of worldwide nogoodnicks. Ling then abducts DMX's baby girl to ransom them back. And as they say, it is ON.

You cannot have these guys together without great fight scenes, and this movie does not disappoint. Li has an incredible nonchalance about himself, and actually fights (and easily handles, of course) his first few adversaries with one hand in his pocket! He has to use both hands, though, when he ends up in the middle of a brawl with a crew of Ultimate Fighters. Of course, he can, and does, without raising much of a sweat (but he does get around to tossing around a midget as a "weapon").

Just as he did in Exit Wounds, Tom Arnold provides some comic relief (among his best lines: "I cannot read Chinese, but I know cop in every language").

Forget about the folks who dog out this movie. The acting is just fine. This script does not call for Meryl Streep, and neither is it incredibly thought provoking screenplay. It does not need to be. It doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is, a slammin', ultra-violent, retribution filled, sexy action film. While I thought at first that the one-handed fight scenes were a bit much, as another reviewer noted, it does show another side of the virtuosity of Jet Li. And I don't really care whether Kelly Hu (bad-guy Ling's equally ultra-fine sidekick) would have beat down Gabrielle Union in two seconds "in real life". The two of them on the screen is worth seeing, in my humble opinion.

Like action movies? Then this one is for you. Enjoy it for what it is, and you will have spent a great ninety minutes.

2-0 out of 5 stars yawn............................................
dmx knows his tired rap act is through,so now hes trying to spread his tired image into movies.is it any wonder his movies(AND EVERY MOVIE OF THIS KIND)barely make it to see a second weekend?the saving grace here is jet li(a minimal save).jet li is also in a massive decline and proved that action also needs acting/believable plot.every rapper acts the same way,they are interchangable/easily forgotten.since i rented this,im not so upset.can you imagine how the crowd was during and after movie?rowdy and uncontrollable as if they were on prison leave.to some extent,you can tell the charactor of a person by what entertains them.im pretty sure the males in the audience couldnt wait to be dmx tough and start some nonsense.we all know how tough guys are....tough from a distance and only with alot of backup.typical and pitifull.any monkey can direct movies this horrible,but how can people actually rush to see this?so very sad...............................

3-0 out of 5 stars dissapointing
Only saw this movie because I'm a Jet Li fan. This is definately not one of his best movies, probably because he is redelegated to the role of sidekick. Some fights were decent but story wasn't very intertaining. DMX is only good at playing one role-gangbanger. Maybe he should stick to his day job.

3-0 out of 5 stars A Solid Action Film
"Cradle 2 the Grave" stars Jet Li and DMX as an odd couple duo who must get back a package of black diamonds from a rogue Taiwanese intelligence agent. DMX plays Fait, a master thief who undertakes a very high-paying job to steal some black diamonds from a very high security vault. Jet Li plays the Taiwanese intelligence agent Su who has to get them back.

At first Fait and Su are opponents after the diamonds. When they are taken by Ling (Mark Dacascos) they team up to retrieve them. Su wants the diamonds and Fait wants his daughter Vanessa (Paige Hurd) back. Ling has kidnapped her as leverage against Fait.

"Cradle 2 the Grave" also stars Anthony Anderson, Tom Arnold, Gabrielle Union, and Drag-On as Fait's assistants, willing and forced. They stage a raid on a deserted airfield where Ling is holding Fait's daughter and the diamonds.

As far as martial arts movies go, "Cradle 2 the Grave" isn't bad. Many of the fight scenes are too well choreographed though and far too Matrixy in the way the actors bodies seemingly mock gravity. I seriously doubt that Jet Li can throw a 200 pound man about 20 feet through the air. This movie also makes the horrendous mistake of having one guy fight about 15 other guys one at a time. Just once I'd like to see all 10 or 15 guys jump the hero at one time and see how he gets out of it. I know that if I were one of those 15 guys, I'd be looking to take a cheap shot while he's working over one of the other guys.

My only real problem with this film is the title. What exactly are they referring to when they call it "Cradle 2 the Grave". Ususally that term is reserved for discussions about Swedish social programs. At no time in this movie did Jet Li and DMX expound upon the benefits of an all-encompassing social safety net vis-a-vis the social benefits of a low-tax economic policy to foster long-term wealth production and distribution. Then again, the movie producers didn't even have enough time to spell out the word 'to'; so, I doubt they had the time to work such a policy discussion into the movie. ... Read more
