How come? I remember it being pretty good (a tad overhyped maybe).
In the valley of Elah - Good movie, at times maybe a bit "easy". I knew very little about the "true facts" this movie was based on, so I was intrigued until the very end.
Also rewatched Crank. Doesn't make any sense and is completely over the top & ridiculous on each level, but in a good way. Really enjoyable.

Trick r' Treat - Billed as the next great Halloween classic by critics. Filmed in 2007 and set for a straight to DVD release after a studio rumble over distribution rights. Saw it last night and I have to agree with the critics. It's a smart "holiday" film which plays to all the traditional rules of a good Halloween movie with out being lame or over the top. Basically an R rated Hocus Pocus meets Halloween (the original). Plot us simple, non linear film in which the characters of 4 scary stories weave their way through an overzealous, Halloween loving Ohio town. A couple of the stories are rather disturbing, one funny, and another surprisingly heart warming. Ana Paquin in the Little Red Riding Hood costume... Need I say more? A shame it's not going to get a theatrical release, though the straight to DVD could pave the way to cult status.
