One hour photo; referring to the time it usually takes for the photo developer Sy Parrish to get his customers' pictures printed.

It's scarily accurate in how people act once they get famous, but most of all it's hilarious in a way only silent movies can be.

The movie reaches very far to try and convince you how the jews are ruining society, for example claiming that people in ghettos are just rich people in disguise, and one particularly manipulative moment is one where the camera pans across several smiling children trying to make them look evil.

The director Gary Cohen was himself an owner of a video store, but annoyed over how people always rented horror movies (particularly slashers) instead of any classic Golden Age features.

His portrayal of this heinously evil and demented (and also hilarious) boss of this mangler factory is such a joy to watch that even if all the supernatural elements got too much for me, I couldn't bring myself to give this movie a low rating.

Supposedly a prequel (there have been some arguments due to the presence of more modern day items, but that's a common goof with many movies taking place longer back) to the first one, this movie is based on another true story...

Notoriously spoken of as possibly the most controversial biker gang of all time, this movie doesn't debunk those claims.

But it also makes the movie feel dragged out, with some scenes hitting a dramatic high point but then not really doing anything with it.

It's about an ending which makes sense and feels right in the context of the movie.

I think that makes it really stick out, and differentiate from many other horror movies in this vein.
