What would you do if there was a house in your neighborhood that was supposed to be truly evil from the events that have taken place in it? You know like an Urban Legend… well Hell House: The Book Of Samiel is a film about just that experience. A long time ago a dad did not want his daughter to be with the guy she was with and forbid her to see him.
Well of course with young love, 9 outta 10 the girl is not going to listen and probably get caught sometime within the process. One night the Dad follows the girl and finds her getting busy in the car with her love. Let’s just say that things get out of hand and the blood flows freely. Now teens like Steve and Paul wanna take their girlfriend to the house to party and play doctor.
Steve’s Dad is a real estate agent so he steals the keys to the house and the party is on! They get there and weird things are happening like Sasha wanting to take a bath and feels something touching her and Steve gets acquainted with some nasty cockroaches. Danny is abused by her father and has a very timid personality and is easily tapped into by the restless spirits residing there.
These kids wish they never got involved with the house but it is too late the book of Samiel has been opened and there is no turning back. Who would of thought that the whispered rumors were real and the house doesn’t want them to ever leave especially since Danny is a virgin and just what they need to be able to roam the earth freely again!

Flying By
Sometimes in life you make choices that you later grow to regret. In Flying By, George who is played by Billy Ray Cyrus seems to have fallen into this category perfectly. When George was young he loved to play music with his friends. They even had their own band and would practice in his garage. His father hated the racket and never offered him any kind of encouragement.
Now it's later on in life an George has a family of his own. He still holds a great love for music that seems to have been passed down to his daughter Ellie. His pretty blond wife Pamela is played by Heather Locklear who doesn't have any remote interest in music. She seems to like the finer things in life but also seems a little cold towards George.
When he goes to his High School Reunion alone and he is reconnected to his musical past she becomes disgusted and embarrassed that he wants to play gigs at his age. Now his old band has reunited about five years prior and want George to join them again. Will he chose his passion over his wife? Or will he decline and remain miserable with the nagging thought of -I should of done it feeling?
I thought it would of been more of a heart felt film but it wasn't. It just seemed to be a little bland for my liking. Are they making this so that Billy Ray Cyrus can try and jump start his musical career since he was only a one hit wonder and his daughter is already a teen legend? It wasn't a horrible watch but it had way too much of the band and not enough family.

Evil Bong II: King Bong
King Bong is the follow up to Evil Bong starring Tommy Chong. The first film had a few special guests like The Gingerdead Man, Bill Mosely, and my personal favorite Ooga Booga from Doll Graveyard. If your curious or if you haven’t seen Evil Bong you can find my review here:http://thisissomescene.com/?p=368
Charles Band is well known for his killer movies with kooky characters. Whether it be the dolls in the Puppetmaster series or Eebee the vintage powerful bong herself from Evil Bong. King Bong even has a quick intro so you get a quick feel of the first film, you know a little explanation on how it all began. Our trio of dedicated pot smokers are back Larnell, Brett, and of course Bachman… oh monkey! They are all still puffin away but only know each of them has a little problem.
It seems that ever since they smoked from that evil bong Eebee they all are having weird exaggerated side effects. Bachman keeps passing out cold and then not remembering that he did, Brett has the severe munchies and can’t stop stuffing food into his now mammoth mouth and Larnell has a weird sex drive where he’ll hump anything from people’s legs to chair arms. After getting Allistar to come over they devise a plan to figure out this whole mess.
Rabbit the delivery guy shows up and they now know they have to head to the Amazon where the bong originated. They meet Velicity and Larnell’s mean old grandpa there. Legend has it that the Poontang clan follow orders from the baddest of them all, King Bong. Now they all need to take a toke off of King Bong and travel inside his trip to destroy him. King Bong is also Eebee’s ex and she is pissed at all the bare breasted Poontang girls he now has worshipping him.
Will these stoners be able to handle King Bong’s plan for them all? Will they be seduced by the Poontang clan? Or will they head in there and get the job done? Will Brett remain a fat ass forever while Larnell will be stuck grinding on anything that he can straddle? You’ll all have to delve into your stoner mindset and find out for yourselves! King Bong has it’s laugh out loud moments as well as it’s so corny you can’t help but smile!

The Mystical Adventures of Billy Owens
I grew up with a kid named Billy Owens but he never had any special abilities or luck like the kid in this film. The Mystical Adventures of Billy Owens is all about magic and what can happen if you believe in yourself. Today is Billy's 11th birthday and he thinks it's going to be another boring day, well believe me he is way off on this guesstimate and soon he'll be proven wrong!
He has two very close friends Devon and Mandy that he does basically everything with. He gets dropped off at school by his mom with a birthday card with some cash in it. A kid that constantly bully's him tries to get that cash but thankfully a teacher intervenes. After school as he is being chased by the bully he runs into William Thurgood's (Roddy Piper) Treasure Trove and Pawn Shop and finds a magical wand that he likes and purchases it.
Suddenly he is equip with an array of powers and his simple life changes into a magical adventure. His friends are along for the ride as they deal with mythical creatures, caves, and a mission that he must complete to save his town of Spirit River. The effects in this movie are minor but the storyline for the kids is highly entertaining.
Soon things start to fall into place and he learns that there are teachers at school and family members that have been involved in magic the whole time. Will Billy be able to save Spirit River? You'll find that out and more if you watch The Mystical Adventures of Billy Owens. There is also a to be continued at the end so I am sure there will be more quests for the kiddies to enjoy in the near future!

Rough Cut Article
Would you kill to make a movie? The scary thing is, two independent filmmakers did. In January 2003 a woman was found beaten, strangled, and stabbed in her Pennsylvania home. 8 months earlier, an independent horror film was shot on the nearby Appalachian Trail. Rough Cut is a feature length documentary that explores the twisted true tale of two first-time filmmakers who had a dream of making a horror movie and the bizarre events that followed.
Blaine Norris decided he wanted to make a horror film. He didn't really have much cash and only one actress that was experienced and had already made a name for herself and that was Robin Griggs. Robin was from Scranton PA and starting acting at the tender age of three. She ended up moving to New York to appear in Annie. She got an agent and was cast on One Life To Live and then later on Another World. She left the soaps and now has become a female fixture in Horror movies.
Girggs was injured and broke her wrist so she had to drop out of Through Hike, the film Norris was counting on her name to get it some exposure. Here are the events that led up to the gruesome discovery that Blaine had actually committed murder for his film:
At 8:29 p.m. on January 10, 2003 police in Camp Hill, PA received a frantic 911 call from Brian Trimble. He had just returned home from dinner with a friend and found his wife, Randi, in a pool of blood on the garage floor.
Before the brutal murder occurred, the house looked as though it was burglarized. Suspicions immediately arose in the seasoned detectives investigating the case. Evidence pointed towards the husband, but his alibi was airtight.
For the next 9 months detectives and law enforcement officials used every tool at their disposal to solve this truly bizarre crime.
Randi's husband Brian was friends with Blaine. Randi didn't link the idea of him loaning out his expensive equipment or even being involved with the film.
If the couple were having problems why not just divorce? Why on earth did Brian feel that murder was the better way to go.
Watch the film/ documentary and see why this man did what he did. Randi didn't deserve to die because of her husband wanting to get a divorce or for the future of the film Through Hike!
