Thankfully, It Does

If only the new horror movie It Ends was a great as that poster is! Thing is I think that poster is an unofficial one made by somebody online -- the film's official poster is fine not special (like the movie). But the poster above? Killer. Anyway we've got a big case of the second watch blues with It Ends -- I originally saw this movie last year at 2025's "Scary Movies" series here in NYC and it would've been better for the movie had I reviewed it out of there since I remembered liking it. But then I re-watched it for this past weekend's actual release to theaters and... I did not like it nearly so much. Click here to read my review at Pajiba if you care to. I haven't had my opinion on a movie switch this much between a first and second viewing since Cronenberg's Cosmopolis. And that was in the opposite direction -- I went from hating it to loving Cosmopolis. Although I can't say I "hate" It Ends -- I look forward to seeing what writer-director Alex Ullom does for a second film. This one just very much suffers from First-Film-itis.
