A prequel to the 2 films that were previously released over a 10-year period, this film follows the same formula: a couple, Maya (Madelaine Petsch) and Ryan (Froy Gutierrez), are stuck in Venus, Oregon after stopping off for a bite to eat when their car won't start. The damaged part can't be replaced until the morning and with few lodging options available to them in the town of 462 residents, they're stuck at an Airbnb in the middle of the woods before being terrorized by 3 masked strangers. I'm not sure why but this franchise continues to get breath breathed back into it every couple of years? 10 years past between the original and the sequel and now another 6 between the sequel and this prequel, which begins a trilogy of films that were shot back-to-back-to-back. To me, these films have always been rather lite and more of a psychological horror, the uneasiness of people right outside your door, invading your privacy for no apparent reason. These films attempt to make you uneasy, with the strangers coming and going out of the house, playing a cat-and-mouse games with their victims without uttering a single word. Petsch gives the best performance here but overall, this like its predecessors, is average. My expectations were just that heading into this and I was hoping to be proved wrong but I wasn't. I'll still check out the other 2 films to see how it plays out but I'm expecting to enjoy them as much, if not, less than this. 5/10
Bravo, Hollander! THIS is a very good news article. Good post!
wow, look who's talking! who made you the arbiter of a good vs bad post, Hollander knows whats good, or he would not post it and dont need your hollow support........like many have said before, this forum has gone down the drains since pizzaboy and others left and they let strays like nymafia and its infomercials run wild.....
Mr. Gribbs, huh? Is that what you like to call yourself? LOL
Let me see if I understood you correctly, ok. You joined the GBB forum way back in 2013. Thats over 11 years ago. Yet, you’ve only commented a measly 4 times over the past 11 years?
Thats less than 3 times each year. Thats not even once a month, let alone once a week, which would be considered by anybody’s measuring stick to still be a very dismal and lackluster contribution to this forum…to say the very least.
Yet, you have the unabashed arrogance to run your big mouth and that pea brain of yours to criticize others, especially me of all people, who has been a major contributor to this forum with interesting and positive content here since day one?
If you had even posted once a month, thats still only 12 times per year. Over the course of 11 years that would still amount to only 132 posts. But it would still be a helluva lot better than 4 measly posts! (And thats putting it kindly.) LOL
Basically, you’re on the “pay no mind list.” Which is exactly where a troublemaking loser and troll like you belongs. LOL
Go peddle your papers somewhere else you stumble bum! LOL
Weert: almost a ton of MDMA intercepted June 12, 2024
An extremely large stock of MDMA appears to have been found in the company warehouse in Weert where the police raided on March 11 : 920 kilos. The lab was in operation at the time of the raid. A suspect was arrested at the scene.
Four suspects De Limburger writes that four suspects in the case are now before the judge. One of the suspects is Bas M., who was convicted in Belgium in 2022 for involvement in a drug lab in Leopoldsburg. Bas M. is the only one who has been completely released by the court for the time being. Another suspect is allowed to go home temporarily for his partner's delivery.
The police believe that other hard drugs were also produced in the lab on Ittervoorterweg in Weert.
Huge amount of 920 kilos is a huge amount of MDMA. Quantities like this are rarely found by police. MDMA is the active substance in ecstasy pills.
Depending on the strength of the pill, 15 to 20 million ecstasy pills could have been made from it, a value of more than 100 million euros on the Dutch market.
Largest lab Justice places Bas M. in the group of Damien B. (33) and Gianni van der B. (31) from Weert, who are suspects in the Kiekendief investigation, about the largest lab for crystal meth discovered in the Netherlands: at the Hoogbosweg in Nederweert in July 2021.
The current face of Emanuele Libero Schiavone , son of the Casalesi boss Francesco Schiavone “Sandokan” (the latter collaborator of justice since last March) was released today on Facebook by the reporter Marilena Natale . Today Emanuele Libero was arrested together with Francesco Reccia , son of the Casalesi ras Oreste Reccia known as Recchia 'e Lepre.
An operation that comes a few days after the recent armed incursions that took place at night in Casal di Principe, with several shots reported in Piazza Mercato and also in Via Bologna, against the gate of the house where Emanuele Libero Schiavone lives with his brother Ivanhoe . Neither of them wanted to join the protection program, arranged after the clan leader's repentance.
Many of the "desperados" who were closely tied to some members of the Outfit, by the mid 1930's were killed by the Mafia mainly because of the sensitive jobs they previously did for them like the professional hits in the massacre or on Aiello and Barker
You mean George "Red" Barker? But wasn't he allegedly killed by the Touhy gang rather than the Mafia? Although maybe I am confusing him with some other gangster.
Yes, there were probably few Outfit associates who were killed by the Touhy gang, especially associates of Rocco DeGrazia's crew. But Barker was a completely different case and he was allegedly killed by the Outfit by being almost cut in half from machinegun bullets from a long distance, and the interesting thing is that none of the people around Barker didnt receive a scratch, which means that the shooters were quite experienced (same as the Esposito, Aiello and other hits from that era).
F-2 was the notorious New York City mobster, Charles “Ruby” Stein.
Ruby Stein lived and plied his criminal trade in New York City. As a young man he initially tried his hand as a prize-fighter and street hoodlum. But he soon found his life’s calling when he stumbled upon the usurious loan business.
Better known on the gritty streets of New York as the “shylock” racket, Stein quickly became a natural at it. With his base intelligence and sharp mind, Ruby excelled as a shylock, or loan-shark. He had a near photographic memory and was quick with numbers, which only added to his success in the business.
He started out by providing small loans to needy businessmen in Manhattan’s “Garment District” and around Queens County. But with his growing success, he soon attracted a few legitimate businessmen as investors who provided the young hoodlum with much needed funds to bankroll his growing “shylock book.”
By the mid-late 1940s, Stein had established himself as a major loanshark figure in the metropolitan area. By this point in time, he had also branched out into the field of illegal gambling as well. Specifically, horse and sports bookmaking.
With his natural ability at mathematics and sharp business acumen, bookmaking was another field of endeavor he was successful at. In fact, he soon became something of an “oddsmaker” that other local bookies utilized to set the days figures for races and games.
But his growing success did not go unnoticed. He soon came to the attention of various organized crime figures who realized Stein was an “independent” as they say, and not tied into any one crime Family.
Soon, other hoodlums started targeting him for ripoffs, strong-arm tactics, and shakedowns. They’d send in an innocent looking “beard” to ostensibly borrow money from Stein. But once the budding shylock went to collect his payments, they’d scare him off with threats of violence.
So, ever the businessman, he decided to go partners with another young hoodlum, a tough, up-and-coming mafioso by the name of Nicholas “Jiggs” Forlano. They dovetailed together beautifully. Coincidentally, Nick Forlano also happened to be a fully “inducted” soldier of Brooklyn’s notorious Joseph Profaci Family.
With Forlano now providing the muscle, and Stein providing the brains, their partnership was an instant success. From that time forward, nobody who ever borrowed money ever dared tried to “stiff” Stein again. They all paid their vigorish.
By the early 1950s, Stein and Forlano had become notoriously known throughout the underworld as simply, “Ruby and Jiggs.”
By this point in time, due to Forlano’s Mafia connections, old man Profaci was now adding to their growing shylock book by helping to bankroll their business with funds invested from the Profaci Family’s treasury. By the late 1950’s, top members of other New York Families were also investing money with Ruby and Jiggs.
All through the 1950s and 1960s era, “Ruby and Jiggs” were widely considered to be the biggest loan-sharks in the nation.
But, after several decades of unrivaled success, by the early 1970s, the magic that had once made for an unbeatable partnership was gone, and everything would change...for them both.
