Sunshine Cleaning

This was an okay film. I enjoy watching Amy Adams; she's like a slightly less awkward Pam from The Office. The film had wonderful cinematography and I thought several of the setting shots and compositions were very nice. The rest of the film was cute and quirky. It was weird seeing Alan Arkin (the Grandpa) in Sunshine Cleaning after his role as the Grandpa in Little Miss Sunshine. All in all I would recommend it as a renter, but titles with "sunshine" that are better include (but are not limited to): Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Little Miss Sunshine

Dead Silence

This was a fun movie. Growing up with Goosebumps and Child's Play I have vivid childhood memories of reading about possessed dummies. Dead Silence is a B movie that has a lot of elements of a TV show. The acting is average, the cinematography is hit or miss. But the creep and horror elements are old school horror, something sorely missing from the genre today. If you're sick of slasher films, psychological nappers, or gross out films/gore fests/torture porn, then this film is right up your alley. Like King/Kubrick's The Shining or The Skeleton Key, this film relies on good old fashion creepiness and imagination to deliver the scares. I think this film is underrated if you enjoy fun mystery, suspense style horror.
