Messed Up Movies

It's New Movie Monday! Today, we find ourselves in a tournament of endurance as we fight our way through a conversation about a movie that is far more video game than film. Griffey, Heath and Sam conjure their special powers of bs to analyze the merits of Mortal Kombat II, how it compares to past iterations of the franchise, the lore it invokes from its arcade origins and ask why it was packaged as an R-rated ride instead of a movie aimed at kids.

Synopsis: The fan favorite champions -- now joined by Johnny Cage himself -- are pitted against one another in the ultimate battle to defeat the dark rule of Shao Kahn that threatens the very existence of the Earthrealm and its defenders.
Starring: Adeline Rudolph, Karl Urban, Martyn Ford
Directed by Simon McQuoid

Today Griffey and Dandino press play another haunted tape in Ringu 2. They discuss the film's interesting approach to sequel story telling changing many of the mechanics of it's predecessor, the introduction of science to battle Sadako, and the idea of the tape going "viral" as it enters our collective minds. While this movie goes on a very different journey than the original, it manages to deepen the lore and add new mechanics that make it a Messed Up gem. 
Synopsis: Reiko takes Yôichi into hiding when her son begins to display frightening powers. Meanwhile, Mai Takano and the authorities begin a desperate search for them, as the mysterious Ring curse spreads.
Starring: Miki Nakatani, Hitomi Satô, Kyoko Fukada
Directed by Hideo Nakata

Today Griffey, Heath and Sam go deep into Irish folklore to study the haunted offerings of Hokum, the latest spookhouse horror from Oddity filmmaker Damien Mc Carthy. A mixed bag of story threads that never fully pay off, creepy objects that provide arresting imagery and one amazing sequence in a hotel room that could be one of the scariest scenes of the year.
We're evaluating this one from every angle, so go see the movie and come join us for this first movie in a very Messed Up May!
Synopsis: A horror writer visits an Irish inn to scatter his parents' ashes, unaware the property is said to be haunted by a witch.
Starring: Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot and Florence Ordesh
Directed by Damien Mc Carthy
