Coming out the same year as the excellent cave-related horror, The Descent, The Cave had a much larger budget and a cast that included some well known names. It should have wiped the floor with The Descent but ultimately failed at the box office and is regarded as a below average movie.
The Babysitter: Killer Queen is a mess that has no direction beyond; do the same things as before, yet worse.
Deep Blue Sea is a shallow and boring effort. Those hoping for a silly romp in the vein of the original will be very disappointed to find it has more in common with the second film.
Written and directed by Jess Norvisgaard, The Good Things Devils Do has an all star cast that includes horror icons; Bill Oberst Jr., Linnea Quigley and Kane Hodder as well as David Rucker III, Mary Katherine O’Donnell, Kelley Wilson Robinson and Veronika Stoykova.
