The Movie Guy

It’s amazing how a good sports movie can suck you in: take a talented, determined underdog who, with a small support group, overcomes obstacles to show they’ve got what it takes. “Gran Turismo” sucks you in.

Despite its drawbacks, “The Last Voyage of the Demeter” treats its terror movie trope seriously, particularly in the logic and likable cast departments. More ghost story than gore fest, it’s decent enough to wind up being a decent movie in return.

Imagine spiritual possession as a party game and you’ve got “Talk to Me,” the debut horror film from Australian twin directors Danny and Michael Philippou that doesn’t cheat filmgoers with jump scares for jolts- they go right for the jugular.
