Cabin in the Woods Trailer

Planning on watching this today, so I decided to post the trailer for it.

Happy Death Day

 

The murderer who is anonymous until the very, very end.

    

    This particular movie didn't host any actors or actresses that I was overall familiar with, but after I saw the trailer, I knew I had to see it. Though, I missed when it was in theaters and had to find it elsewhere. Eventually, I managed to find it on Amazon Prime and watched it with my friend Adam.

    First off, I want to say that there are some movies where you want to yell at the protagonist not to do anything stupid, we've all been there. In Happy Death Day, at the start, you can tell that our protagonist Theresa Gelbman, or Tree as she's referred to, is a bit self-centered, and honestly not the brightest. But in a movie like this, she can afford to be stupid up to and including getting herself killed. Eventually she does get smarter with enough deaths staying alive longer and longer in each encounter with her killer.

    Here's a picture of Tree now, with a guy she keeps waking up in the same room as.

    I think her final death was so surprising it was epic, before she finally confronts her killer and survives, breaking the time loop. I came across an alternate ending for the movie, and thought I'd share it here. It could've ended quite differently than the way it ended up going.

    One of the things I look for in a movie, that I found in this one, is its ability to creep you out after the movie is over. You walk into a dark room in your house and suddenly you wonder whether someone in a creepy baby mask is waiting to step out of your closet and stab you. That's something I look for in a horror movie, its ability to leave you on edge, even after you stop watching it.

    I think that's about it for now. Maybe at some point I'll watch and post about the sequel; Happy Death Day 2U.

Black Swan

Black Swan was a movie I saw in theaters, actually a couple of years ago, now. I was thinking about it, and decided to do a post on it now after watching Jupiter Ascending with Mila Kunis in it. I thought it was absolutely splendid. However, for anyone reading this that hasn't seen it yet I won't be too specific on any of the scenes. I always love scenes that turn out to be hallucinations later on, especially if no one knows that they are in fact hallucinations until a bit later in the movie as it did in this movie.

I like Mila Kunis, but despite that, I think Natelie Portman did a excellent job throughout the movie. Some of the movie seems to be what my friends Lisa and Chloe would watch, up until the part where the hallucinations and horror start. I thought the movie started off a little slow, but once it got started, it really got started. It was intense and I loved every minutes of it. Despite starting slow, I can see how the beginning was needed to set the stage for the rest of the movie and was in fact necessary for the rest of the movie.  I thought the good old fashion competion did wonders for the movie, especially how it twisted with a couple of other things. The fact that both Natalie Portman's charactor and Mila Kunis' charactor had a twisted sort of friendship; being friends and yet rivals for the same position with something else mixed in. As well as the fact that each of them had one role that they were better at than the other one. Though I think Natelie Portman's charater started taking her role as the black swan side very seriously and it started to consume her.

31 Official Trailer

I'm much anticipating the release of this movie in September. Unfortunately, I didn't see the early release of it, where ever that was... Now that there's an official trailer, I've decided to share it.

Crimson Peak Trailer!

Recently I did a post on the trailer for Crimson Peak. I liked it so I thought I'd repost it here. Enjoy!

Crimson Peak

This guy looks like a vampire to me.

 I just watched the trailer via twitter of Crimson Peak. I must say I am really really looking forwards to seeing it. Nothing like a haunted house of something of the sort to make a good movie. Unfortunately, we all have to wait until October to be able to watch it. At least it's going to be in 2015 rather than 2016. For anyone who is interest, you can get the official trailer for Crimson Peak here. I'm looking forwards to watching the seen with the bathtub for sure. And the scene with the casket in it. And the scene with bloody skeleton coming out from the floor. So there are lot of great scenes to look forwards to in this movie, and probably a lot more that weren't shown in the trailer. :) Ya know, I have seen a different movie with a house that was supposed to be alive. If I recall it was pretty good too. From what I can tell, the guy to the right over there, must be old then he appears. That's what  I get out of the old photographs anyways. I'll say whether that was true or not after I've seen it. See you then!

New Blog

My blog has always been about horror movies that I watch. Recently, I've been thinking about posting about a few movies that aren't horror movies. I've been wondering whether I should create an exception for those movies. Later I got to talking with my friend Adam a bit about blogging. He has a blog about food, but created a new blog to talk about restaurants. With that said,  I decided that I should start a new blog to talk about all the movies I want to talk about that aren't horror movies. My new blog will be here.
