Blu-ray/DVD Review: War Horse
by Karissa Barrows, Editor
Albert Narracott (Irvine) and Joey
When you think “horse movie”, what do you think of? Black Beauty? Seabiscuit? Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron? Typically, I usually think some movie that’s going to make me cry because of shameless horse-killing, the overplayed horse-separated-from-loved-owner-and-later-reunited storyline proven to elicit tears, or some cowboy movie. War Horse, Steven Spielberg’s newest film, uses those first two, mixed with a little Seabiscuit-style “miracle horse” aspect, and a little bit of storytelling I thought slightly reminiscent of Tarantino – and makes for a huge success.

Instead of building the second movie off the events, and timeline, of the first film, this sequel uses the First Sequence as the catalyst for the events of the Full Sequence. That’s why this film is 100% medically inaccurate instead of the first Human Centipede’s 100% medically accurate status.

I have been raised in the horror genre. In fact, the first movie I can ever remember watching is “The Blob”. Yep, that one with the big pink thing that consumes people. Thanks, Dad. B movies for the win! Anyway, I’ve loved horror ever since. That’s usually Karl’s territory here at ComicsOnline, but I got the Blu-ray copy by accident. So, not only am I going to tell you just a little bit about this amazing series, The Fades, on BBCThree and, as of recent, BBC America, but I’m going to give you the chance to win a DVD of series 1 of your very own.
