    Primeval (2007) Rated "R"
    Starring Dominic Purcell, Brooke Langton, Orlando Jones, Jürgen Prochnow
    Directed by Michael Katleman
    Reviewed by Nicholas Ozment
    Rating: (1/5)

    The most interesting thing about Primeval was the advertising campaign. If you only saw the preview before watching it, you'd probably go in expecting a serial-killer horror flick. ...

    Bug (2006) Rated “R”
    Starring Ashley Judd, Michael Shannon, Lynn Collins, Brian F. O’Byrne, Harry Connick, Jr.
    Directed by William Friedkin
    Review by Nicholas Ozment
    Rating: (2/5):

    In the trailer for Bug, Mr. Movie-Preview-Voice says in that slow, deep, menacing tone, "They live in your blood. They feed on your brain." The trailer also emphasizes it is from the director of The Exorcist (William Friedkin), and quotes a critic proclaiming, "One of the most disturbing horror movies imaginable." ...

    1408 (2007), Rated “PG-13”
    Starring John Cusack, Samuel L. Jackson, Mary McCormack, Jasmine Jessica Anthony
    Directed by Mikael Håfstrom

    Rating (3.5/5):

    “It’s an evil f**king room.”

    You can guess who speaks that bit of dialogue, since the cast includes Samuel L. Jackson. The room he’s describing is 1408 of the Dolphin Hotel.

    Note that a classic, old-style building like the Dolphin does not have a thirteenth floor: floor 14 is, in fact, floor 13. And also note what 1+4+0+8 add up to. That’s all a bit of Stephen King having some fun. ...

    28 Weeks Later (2007), Rated "R"
    Starring Robert Carlyle, Rose Byrne, Jeremy Renner, Harold Perrineau Jr.
    Directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo
    Review by Nicholas Ozment
    Rating (3/5):

    So everyone who knows me knows I’m a sucker for zombie movies. When this one came out in 2007, I was looking forward to learning what was happening in the British Isles seven months after the first outbreak of the Rage virus, which had turned virtually every Brit into a bloodthirsty zombie. ...
