Final Destination

Incredible plot, good actings, thrilling moments, interesting characters and amazing death scenes.

Dan's rating:

Final Destination 5 (2011)

Good plot, entertaining death scenes and a great ending. This new one has the same feeling as the two first movies and that's a great thing.

Dan's rating:

6.2

Final Destination 2 (2003)

Still good with a well done connection with the first movie and a plot that try to make more sense and clarify the story.
The characters are still fine and the thrilling moments and the death scenes are remarkable (the accident in the beginning is epic). What a pity the actings are poor (Ali Larter is not included, of course)

Final Destination 3 (2006)

Forget a plot that try to connect things and make sense. This one looks like a remake for the first one.
Yes, they drop away the plot but at least they worked hard on entertainment.
Great characters, awesome death scenes and amazing thrilling moments.

The Final Destination (2009)

Poor, laughable, awful, weak.
Horrible actings, death scenes and plot.

Scream

Killer: Ghostface
Sequels: 3
Remakes: -
Others: A documentary and a parody that turned into a Comedy franchise (Scary Movie).

Scream (1996)

Clever, funny, terrifying, thrilling, classic.
A new-breath for the slasher genre. Great characters, great scenes. Wes Craven showed once again he's a real mester of suspense.

Dan's rating:

1199

6.2

Scream 4 (2011)

Once again clever, funny, terrifying, thrilling, classic.
Countless years were not enough to bring Scream down. More blood, more action, more great characters, more killings, more fun. The only reason why Scream 4 is not better than Scream is because Scream is Scream, but it's really almost there.

Scream 2 (1997)

And Wes still got it. A great sequel. All the aspects from the first movie are still here.

Scream 3

I think they lost it a little bit in this one. It's still a nice slasher, but they put too much the 'comedy' aspect. It was more like a Comedy with some thrilling scenes and not a Horror Movie criticizing it's own genre (like the other ones)

Saw (2004)

A clever and thrilling horror movie. Started all a new torture porn thing and deserves to be watched.

Saw II (2005)

A pretty good sequel. More traps and blood. Everything worked fine.

Saw III (2006)

A lot of great traps and deaths with a tone of blood and a good twist ending....

Saw V (2008)

A lot of great traps and deaths with a tone of blood and a good twist ending...

Saw VI (2009)

A lot of great traps and deaths with a tone of blood and a good twist ending...

Saw IV (2007)

I need to tell you this: After the third one I can't see the difference between the movies.
They're all about great trap and death scenes with a twist ending involving all the movies, that's it. And I love that. But I'm just saying because is hard for me to talk about the others, they're just like this: Traps, Blood, Deaths, Twist Ending...

Dan's rating:

Saw: The Final Chapter (2010)

The weaker one, but still pretty good.

Red Dragon

One of the best thrillers ever. I missed Hannibal, tough.

Hannibal (2001)

Kind of boring but still good.

Dan's rating:

6.1

Hannibal Rising (2007)

As a movie is pretty fine, but I liked more when Hannibal was just a crazy, clever and mysterious psychopat and not another victim of the society.
