Welcome to The Movie Tree

Hello and welcome to The Movie Tree. Like most people, I am a big fan of movies. I, however, take movie watching to the extreme. In 2012 I watched 242 'new' movies (Yes, I track how many I watch). When I say new movies, I mean new to me. This number does not include the movies I watched for a second, or however many, time. You might be wondering how I was able to watch 242 'new' movies in 365 days. Well, I tend to watch movies in segments. I'll watch a little during lunch, a little more while working out, then finish it up during my early morning shift of feeding our baby boy. It's probably not the way the director intended me to watch it, but it allows me to watch more movies! I also have a wife that enjoys watching movies as well.

I am also big on rating movies. Usually I rate movies on sites such as IMBD and Film Affinity, but I will share those here as well. I rate movies based on a 1-10 scale ( you can see my translation of the scale on the Rating Tree). I'm not big on writing lengthy reviews, but I will from time to time. You will also see Top 10 lists, weekly recaps of the movies I watched, and my reactions to upcoming films and movie news. Feel free to agree or disagree with any post- I welcome the discussion. Enjoy!

Trailer of the Week: Devil's Pass (2013)


The Dyatlove Pass Incident is one of the most fascinating stories I have come across. You should read up on it if you have not already heard of it. I'm glad that there will finally be a movie made about the incident, but I am a little wary of Devil's Pass. The found footage approach is a nice touch but it looks like the filmmakers may screw up a great historical story. It is hard to tell form the trailer, but there appears to be some underground bunker that houses strange creatures- not what I think of when I read about the 1959 incident. Regardless I will be checking it out. Devil's Pass has already been released in other countries, but is set to release in the US late August.
