A Samurai in Time.
Not a new concept but interesting from a Japanese perspective.
Also, got me involved to the point that I spent some anxious moments hoping this samurai from the past wouldn't slaughter a bunch of extras, out of habit.

If you feel like you've been making too many good decisions lately and you're worried that your streak is about to end, then get out ahead of your imminent bad luck and watch this movie. Surely the universe will call it even and your good decision making can continue.
I watch a lot of movies and many are so dull I only remember that I've seen them when I turn the movie on, having forgot that I'd already watched it.
I will not forget this one.
I had to keep watching because I was compelled to see how dumb it would get; and the movie absolutely did not disappoint. They indeed saved the best for last. By that I mean that the ending somehow managed to top all the stupidity that came before it; a piece de resistance that's only equal could be found in a cat litter box that hasn't been changed in a month.

Sky Sharks -2020 - German movie, that was kickstarted like Iron Sky (another German movie about Nazis).
One of the main stars, and also an executive producer, is Eva Habermann, who was the original Zev in Lexx series.
It features former Nazi scientists, zombie Nazi super-soldiers, and cybernetic mutant flying sharks.
It is entertaining, and features lots of female nudity, and violence.
Many reviewers on IMDB give it a rating of 1, but there are many worse movies. I have seen many times on IMDB that the majority of movies and TV series have a wide range of ratings, and the people who give low ratings invariably say the acting was bad, while those who give high ratings say the acting is good. Of course perceptions of quality have a large subjective nature. I would say it rates about 4 or 5.

That was the one that involved the moon, right? I think I saw that with some mates and all of us couldn't stop making Wolfenstein references. I think we all had a lot of fun joking about that movie than actually watching that movie.

Evil Dead Burn
It's a solid entry in the franchise; certainly better than Evil Dead Rise.
It starts off a little shaky but really picks up and manages to keep the pace going until the end of the third act, where unfortunately it kinda goes to pot. However, it doesn't ruin what came before it. There are also some well done humorous moments that Rise lacked.
The Evil Dead franchise is still the best in horror by a long ways. However, given the post credit scenes, of which there are two, it appears that there are going to be sequels featuring Rise and Burn characters. It sucks because part of what keeps these movies going is the challenge of having to come up with new ways to keep old things interesting.
If you like horror, you'll like this one. If you don't like horror, then don't watch. It's quite gory and violent.
7/10

I made it to bodily fluids on the living room rug.
This is not entertainment.

I've still got a few hours left on my rental. Maybe I'll try and finish it.
