Godzilla vs. The Sea Monster
Letterboxed and subtitled!
The Zombie Diaries is told in three related segments, each from the perspective of a different hardy soul who, from behind the lens of a handheld camera, documents a world (or rather, an English countryside) overrun by the undead. The first segment follows a roving news crew during its investigation of the spread of the virus. The following two segments have even more doubtful excuses for the presence of a camera during this de facto apocalypse, but without these rationalizations there would be no movie — and the audience might have been better off.

It's taken almost ten years, but the children of The Blair Witch Project are finally coming to visit.
Pity the poor giant monster fan; even in the subgenre's heyday, the pickings were few and far between. These days, Godzilla is in hibernation (and will be until 2009 brings Godzilla 3-D to the iMAX), and all the discerning kaiju junkie had to sustain him was the intensely hyped Cloverfield... and Dragon Wars, a somewhat schizophrenic Korean fantasy film that plops giant chubby iguanas with magic rocket launchers in the streets of Los Angeles.
Now, it must be admitted that DOK-TOR SEY-TAN is a great villain. I can't find the actor's name with any reliability, but he is obviously relishing this role. He's a large, imposing fellow, moves well, and has a good, hearty I'm-a-bad-guy-and-enjoy-my-work laugh. During most of the movie he seems to be wearing Dr. Strange's tunic... although often with a plain black jacket over it. Perhaps this is symbolic of the evil pall he casts over all in his domain, or it was just cold on the set that day. To top it all off, he has Josef Stalin's moustache, so you know he's really, really evil. Really.
Has it really been nearly twenty years since they killed Superman?
