    "Oculus" is unusual though because it's one of the few modern day horror films where the script is the primary focus, not the direction. It boasts a very clever, inspired and engaging story, which is so successful that I didn't even realize it was lacking in the scare department until the film was over.

    "Annabelle" proves that the character of Annabelle only really works as support, as she isn't scary enough to sustain her own movie..Although to be fair, the lazy and formulaic script didn't do her any favors.

    "The Protector 2" (starring Tony Jaa) feels more like a parody of "The Protector" than a sequel. Fans have complained about the sloppy screen-play, the reliance on bad special effects, the lack of Jeeja Yanin ("Chocolate") and the cushioned punches and kicks of the fight scenes. Those are all very correct criticisms. But even when I was agreeing with the detractors, I found myself enjoying "The Protector 2"...even if it wasn't always for the right reasons.
