#152 Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (2009)

I liked the first Night at the Museum better. For the sequel, it felt like they just threw every idea they had out there even if it was extra stupid and didn't fit into this already crazy universe. Feels sloppy.

#150 The Stepfather (2009)

The Stepfather is a remake of an '80s horror film about a guy that wants the perfect family. When they start disappointing him, he kills them and starts over. Dylan Walsh from Nip/Tuck is great in this role as the serial killer dad. The kid from the poor family on Gossip Girl is the suspicious soon to be stepson and he maintains his one-speed acting ability from that show. I don't know if it was intentional, but the movie was far more funny that it was scary. Maybe it was the audience I saw it with, but every time there was a jump scare or the dad killed someone everyone laughed. Walsh being super frustrated that his new family was messing up was always hilarious because you just new they were going to get it.

#148 Seven Pounds (2008)

One part sad, one part convoluted and ridiculous.

3.5/5

#147 Deadgirl (2008)

This indie horror film started out with an interesting premise (finding a 'dead' girl in an abandoned hospital that can't die), but ultimately squandered it by choosing to use her as some kind of zombie sex slave for high school nerds that don't have girlfriends. Stupid characters leading to stupid decisions resulting in a stupid movie.

Note to self - don't take recommendations from twitter seriously.

#145 Nerdcore Rising (2008)

Nerdcore Rising follows MC Frontalot on his first nationwide tour, finishing up at PAX 2005. It also goes into what nerdcore is and asks if it is a valid genre that will have any staying power. Even though I don't listen to any nerdcore, this was a funny documentary and it was fun to watch since I just went to PAX and saw MC Frontalot (though I missed the concert).

4/5

#144 Big Man Japan (2007)

If you like mockumentaries and ridiculous monsters you should like Big Man Japan. It follows a guy that's job is to protect Tokyo from whacky monsters. Sounds simple, but it's funny as hell. I was laughing my ass off every time a new monster showed up and he had to fight it. The last 20 minutes of the movie take a strange twist and it gets even weirder. Nothing else like it out there.

4.5/5
