Animal Among Us

If you think that "Animal Among Us" was a film that you know all too well without seeing it, guess again. This film keeps you guessing until its mind-blowing ending. 

When a campground is reopening celebration fifteen years after two girls were murdered and lead to a best-selling novel, Anita and Penelope Bishop (played by Larisa Oleynik and Christine Donlon), deals with issues of an animal like creature on the campsite, after two people had been attacked and killed. But when the author. Who wrote the book on the previous murders comes for the celebration at the Bishop's mother; the plot twists and turns about man and creature.

"Animal Among Us" is a horror film that might have the same plot devices as previous classic horror films like Friday the 13th. I enjoy some originality in this film; while for a 90-minute movie with some slow parts, it builds to an ending that I would have never had thought of. Larisa Oleynik, who won Best Actress in a Feature at Northen Horror Fest 2019, gives a stunning performance unlike we've seen her do from her previous roles. Even Don Frye and Erin Daniels were outstanding and stood out in the film as well.

I give the film an 8/10.

Last Call! Pitch Perfect 3

If this is the last call for our Bellas, I'm totally comfortable it after watching Pitch Perfect 3 that just it theaters this weekend.

After graduating from college, the Bellas are having difficulty with their careers and tries to get one last performance when they perform for the USO tour. They learn that they must complete against bands that us instruments.

After getting a bit of taste from other performers, they try to make their act a bit better and lose the fun of what they have done in the past. But as they finally find their way, Becca gets a record deal, but only her and not the rest of the Bellas. But when it comes to the Bellas, they learn, grow and move forward.

I've enjoyed this movie from start to finish. The performance from the cast was hilarious and at times emotional when it comes to the scenes of the characters embarrassing the future, let alone the last performance and the end credits as well. The song choices in this film was amazing with "Toxic," "Cheap Thrills" and "Freedom! '90" were outstanding and John Lithgow's performance in the film is funny at times. The film depicts on how when you miss something so bad that even though you can't do it forever, you'll always have the people you were around with still with you.

Even though it doesn't top Pitch Perfect 2, Pitch Perfect 3 gets close enough be what we expect the film to be with great songs, hilarious jokes and characters that we watch grow move forward to their new chapters. Overall, I give this movie 8/10.

You can catch Pitch Perfect 3 in theaters now.
