Movie Maniac added 1 item to Terror Blurbs! Part II (An Ever-Expanding List) list

Plot: An earthquake unleashes an ancient evil that consumes a mother and turns her against her own family for its own delight. The fifth cinematic entry into the Evil Dead franchise comes loaded with good concepts but a flimsy script that sputters to get beyond its trope heavy and generic delivery. Some elements shine while others are bland or groan-inducing. Still, a relatively strong heroine, some groovy lore and villains, and a solid third act heal most wounds. Lots of potential, tepid delivery, but I've seen worse.

Plot: A man is locked both into a public restroom and a ritual of cosmic importance with an unfathomable entity that resides therein. For a film that largely depends on a single location and a couple of actors (one of which is not onscreen), Glorious mounts quite the competent punch as an entry into Lovecraftian/cosmic horror. Making potent use of dark humor and a constant dialogue exchange, the flick paints a picture for the viewer that could serve as a pretty solid introduction to Lovecraftian concepts for any novices while providing clever fun to anybody well-versed in the subject. It also builds up quite nicely and comes with a couple of twists that play with expectations quite nicely. A surprisingly good example of a low budget being used to your benefit. Funny, weird, and fresh.
