Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark ダークフェアリー : I figured Guy Pearce and Guillermo del Toro with faeries would be an automatic win. Nope. Self-indulgent suspense scenes instead feel like lingering establishing shots. Casting of the daughter was odd; she looked like she /could/ be Katie Holmes’ daughter, but she’s Guy Pearce’s daughter, and Katie’s the stepmom. I guess a daughter that looked like Guy Pearce would be a different kind of horror movie. I quit halfway through this turd.

Justice League: The New Frontier: Lots of fun superhero stuff, cast against the Cold War and McCarthyism. I liked the older costumes, including a costume transition for Batman. I want to pick up the Darwyn Cooke original works now.
