HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE SAW IV FROM DVDTALK

Once a horror flick has this many Roman numerals tacked onto the end of the title, it's pretty clear that it's being hammered out just to service the fans and snag seven bucks a pop in the process. Saw IV really isn't for the uninitiated. To get much of anything out of the movie, you'll at the very least have had to have sat through Saw III; otherwise, nothing makes a whole hell of a lot of sense, especially once the climax rolls around and characters start appearing with no setup, explanation, or...hell, even any dialogue. Anyway, it's impossible to say anything about Saw without giving away the ending of the last movie, so if you're new to the franchise, go ahead and click off to something else now. By the time Saw III faded to black, Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) and his seemingly heir-apparent were both dead. Just to stamp out any lingering doubt, Saw IV opens with the lifeless body of John Kramer -- the Jigsaw Killer -- having the flesh of his face peeled back, his skull sawed open, his brains scooped out, his ribs spread apart, and his stomach carved out and sliced open. So...yeah. Dead. And just like the impromptu shark autopsy in Jaws sent fish guts and a crumpled license plate spilling out, the coroner carving up Kramer's corpse finds an audio cassette coated in wax in the murderer's severed stomach. Jigsaw bellows in that final recording that the game isn't over yet, although that kinda stands to reason when there are still eighty-something minutes to go in the movie. Anyway, considering that Jigsaw's always kept himself somewhat detached from his grisly tests of morality, speaking as a rumbling, disembodied voice or an eerie image on a video monitor, it's not that hard to keep the vivisections and dismemberments splattering along outside of this mortal coil...as long as you have help. Anyway, the primary focus of Jigsaw's tests this time around is the impulsive Lieutenant Rigg (Lyriq Bent), whose fruitless obsession to track down his missing partner has nearly cost him everything. Jigsaw reveals that Eric Matthews (Donnie Wahlberg) is still alive all these months later, hanging from some remote ceiling by an iron chain and only kept alive by the quickly-melting block of ice under his feet. The movie from there unfolds almost in real-time -- which is completely unrealistic, but...y'know, suspension of disbelief and all that -- as the 90 minute timer ticks down. Rigg becomes increasingly ensnared in Jigsaw's machinations, faced with a slew of victims inches from a bloody end in the psychopath's legendary death traps while struggling to make some sense of the clues he'd left behind. The torture-fu this time around includes eye gouging, total body dismemberment, scalping, a hear-no-evil-speak-no-evil tug of war to the death, head mashing, face slicing, double-impaling... Yup, it's a Saw flick. While Rigg is following Jigsaw's blood-spattered trail, two feds (Scott Patterson and Athena Karkanis) are tailing Rigg, convinced that he could be another of the killer's accomplices.

COLLEGE NOW AVAILABLE

COLLEGE NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE COLLEGE FROM IMDB

A wild weekend is in store for three high school seniors who visit a local college campus as prospective freshmen.

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE COLLEGE FROM DVDTALK

The first and last laudable element of "College" is the spirited opening title sequence. Skillfully mixing high school iconography with contractually-obligated acknowledgments, the opener, designed by director Deb Hagan, is an inventive, bouncy way to start off the picture. From there, the movie falls right into the toilet. Willfully or accidentally is up to the viewer.

Enjoying their senior year of high school, conservative Kevin (Drake Bell, "Superhero Movie"), fatty blowhard Carter (Andrew Caldwell, "Hannah Montana"), and nerd Morris ("American Idol" reject Kevin Covais) are three friends begging for some excitement. Planning a college road trip to sort out their academic options, the boys instead turn the weekend into a drunken free-for-all, moving in with a malicious fraternity for shelter. While embracing their inner homophobic, boozehound personalities, the boys meet a few comely sorority sisters, presenting an opportunity for sexual intercourse and profound self-examination over future plans.

Using cartoony campus life to backdrop a larger statement of farcical social release is nothing new to the big screen. It's a conceptual well Hollywood loves to abuse, averaging one legitimate classic for every 20 stinkers. "College" is, not surprisingly, one of the misfires. Actually, misfire is being too kind. The film is more a waking nightmare of lethargic screenwriting, unbearable performances, and an overall disrespect paid to the fine art of the party movie. It's a crummy comedy, and it's no surprise the studio kept it away from early critical view and left it to rot with a late-August opening date.

My discontent with "College" is exhaustively felt in two major areas of the film. The first is Deb Hagan, who snatches a rare directorial opportunity for a woman (an unfortunate truth) and proceeds to submit a motion picture any brute could put together. Perhaps it's unfair to bring Hagan's gender into the argument, but honestly, does the world really need another film that celebrates binge drinking, homophobia, appalling improvisational skills, and lousy production value? Lady, there's enough of that around to last two lifetimes. Hagan lacks the spirit to take the material to another level of encouragement. All she aspires to do with "College" is gross-out the audience with fecal-centric humor and further the careers of actors who have no business being in front of a camera. What a waste.

My second area of distress is the aforementioned acting. There are some sincerely deplorable performances in "College," even for an easily forgettable, future Spike TV staple like this. Andrew Caldwell is the definitive offender here, contorting himself into a rotund Farleyesque oaf, screaming his lines and furiously trying to "outfunny" his co-stars with his noxious variety of comedic larceny (the Disney Channel seems to breed these guys by the thousands lately). Caldwell is an inexcusable, exasperatingly vile screen presence in a film with considerable competition for such a title.

And don't get me started on the picture's dramatic turn in the final reel. Seriously, "College" asks the audience to care about these characters. Where's Caldwell's diseased sense of humor when you need him!

Sure, scenes with the boys doing body shots off a furry frat brother in extreme close-up, cleaning overflowing toilets in extreme close-up, and getting nailed with urine-filled balloons might seem like an awesome night at the movies. For me, it was agony.
