4/5	"*This is Rambo* for a new generation--bigger, more violent, and yet somehow a little smarter and nuanced too. It's not high art, but who expects that from a Rambo movie to begin with?*" -- Mike Bracken's Horror Films* Posted Jan 24, 2008	Rambo (2008)	33%

4/5	"Feast has all the earmarkings of one of those cult films best seen at midnight, in a crowded theater, with a rowdy audience of horror geeks and drunken college kids.

3/5	"Whether or not one enjoys Evil is dependent on a variety of factors. How tired are you of zombie films in general? Do you mind a low budget movie with subtitles throughout? Does good old fashioned gore FX work trump slow stretches in a script?" -- Mike Bracken's Horror Films Posted Feb 28, 2007	Evil ()	n/a
4/5	"If I were a hack critic I'd call it "the feel-good movie of the year", but instead I'll simply say that everything old is eventually new again, and in the case of Rocky Balboa, that's okay with me." -- Mike Bracken's Horror Films Posted Dec 20, 2006	Rocky Balboa (2006)	76%
