Diagnosis:
Death
(2009)
Johnny's
comments:
Diagnosis: Death is a 2009
comedy horror movie where
sleazy teacher Andre
(Raybon Kan) and school
girl Juliet (Jessica Grace
Smith) contracted a rare
form of cancer from a
ghostly presence and are
put into a drug trial at
the same hospital in their
dying days. Run by a
vicious nurse (Suze Tye)
and a doctor (Bret
McKenzie), Andre and
Juliet become friends as
boredom sets in as they
can't go outside the
hospital. Then the visions
start of a young boy
drowning possibly by a
woman who turns out to be
a famous author who was a
resident at the hospital.
Andre and Juliet decide to
investigate including
stealing the keys and
leaving the hospital. Is
it the experimental drugs
they are taking or is it
the ghostly presence that
is causing this. Or is
something more sinister at
hand. Another OK movie
that benefits from good
chemistry between the
leads more than the
attempts at comedy or
horror, neither of which
reaching any great
heights. There's also the
full Flight of the
Conchords cast in cameos
(well, Bret McKenzie is
slightly more than a
cameo) as well as Loren
Horsley from Eagle vs.
Shark, none of which are
all that funny. A shame
really because the film
never really decides what
it wants to be, a straight
horror movie or a comic
one.

Luella
Miller
(2005)
Johnny's
comments:
Luella
Miller is a 2005 drama
about Lydia (Sara
Wiseman), a shy woman
living in the shadow
of her mother, who was
a notorious, but now
dead, local
prostitute. While she
works at a local
factory, he main love
is as a dress maker.
One day, Lydia is
startled by a
frightened, child-like
woman Luella Miller
(Sia Trokenheim), who
has hidden inside her
house. She decides to
help out Luella, but
it isn't long before
friction begins
between the two women
as Luella forces
herself onto the town,
impressing all the men
and pissing off all
the women. Then,
Luella sets her sights
on troubled Christian
(Phil Brown), who is
Lydia's best friend
and who she has been
harbouring a major
crush on, but is too
scared to take that
step. Luella
recognises this and
plays a dangerous game
where she attempts to
get Lydia and
Christian together
just as Christian is
leaving town. This is
not going to end
well... An OK, if
slightly underdone
movie that begins
rather oddly with the
bizarre behaviour and
then completely out
there suicide of
Luella's father, which
I assume was supposed
to be a bigger part of
the plot, but is never
mentioned again after
it happens in the
first ten minutes. And
while it promises to
be some sort of erotic
thriller, it really
isn't even close, it's
actually quite a
depressing movie and
not really erotic
unless you count a
quite out-of-nowhere
facial scene as sexy.
