Pure Evil - Starfish

[Evil Avatar]

Feeling a little under the weather, I stayed home from work last night and caught a new indie horror film on iTunes, Starfish. It’s the story of a girl, a mix tape and the end of the world.

It’s a bit slow and the back-story stuff is a little confusing, but still a good watch with a lot of emotional moments and some fantastic music. It’s a bit like The Mist, without a bunch of people running around screaming all the time.

If you watch it and you can figure out what was going on with the boyfriend, let me know!

Nice, I almost watched that one last night. Looks like my type of weird, creepy, intriguing film. I'll plan to watch it next.

I just finished watching a film titled "Sick for Toys." It is a similarly weird and cool horror/thriller. You might like it.

That looks pretty twisted. I’ll watch it.

The more I think about it, the more I liked Starfish. It kinda sticks with you and I do need to catch a second viewing to get a better grip on what was going on with the boyfriend and to check out all the cool indie music tracks.

It’s getting great reviews too, so hopefully the studio will see enough cash to fund this director’s next project.

I did end up watching Starfish and while it was different than I was expecting, it was very interesting. I definitely noticed the Mist influences. I bought it so I'll need to watch it again, but it's been a few days so I'm not sure either what the deal was with the boyfriend. Was it alternate realities, just old memories?
