I seriously have no idea what’s supposed to scary or horrifying about Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman in the upcoming Black Swan. They are doing pretty, pretty ballet as far as I can see. Nevertheless, it’s supposed to scary. I don’t know. But, one thing I’m loving are the posters. Keep those coming they make …
Mother isn’t traditionally what we would call horror, I guess if we had to classify this film, it’s more mystery thriller. Mother or Madeo comes from from South Korea and it stars Kim Hye-ja and Won Bin (as a mother and son) and directed Bong Joon-ho. Bong Joon-ho also directed The Host . Let’s just …
This one is called In My Sleep and let’s just say this guy’s sleeping disorder is way cooler than mine.
Marcus suffers from parasomnia, a rare sleep disorder which causes him to do things in his sleep which he cannot remember the next day. His situation takes a horrifying turn when Marcus wakes up covered in blood with a knife at his side. Then, the wife of his best friend is found stabbed to death. Marcus is terrified to put
together the pieces – could he have murdered her in his sleep to hide a dark
secret between them?
See jump for trailer.
This looks disturbing enough for us. We’ll bite. Mother (Madeo) is opening today in limited release. If you dwell in the states called California and New York you can check this out right. If not? Rent Host. It’s directed by the same dude (Bong Joon-ho) Enjoy! Hye-ja is a single mom to 27-year-old Do-joon. Her …
Directed by Fede Alvarez (2013) No Ash? Wait, they are remaking Evil Dead, without Bruce Campbell? What? That’s crazy talk. That will never work. The Ash character is now a girl? Remember when the internet world went all flavors of nutters when that information came out about this remake. Guess what? They were WRONG! I …
After a much needed break, I have returned from my walkabout. Walkabout, that spontaneous journey through the wilderness of one’s choosing in an effort to satisfy one’s itchy feet, a need to be elsewhere, the craving for the open road, that space over the horizon… You guessed it I walked about the shoes stores across …
Directed by Andrés Muschietti 2013 I’ll just say this right off, I’m a big fan of Guillermo del Toro, so I came into Mama with bias. Technically this film was not directed by Guillermo, but by Andrés Muschietti, who actually co-wrote and directed a Spanish short by the same name in 2008. However, when you …
We laughed, we cringed, we booed and we laughed some more, because it’s us. That’s we do. I always procrastinate with this list because I see dozens upon dozens of films each year and I’m always somewhat unmoved lately that is. I long for the days of Jason and Freddie. There are just no good …
Juan de los Muertos (original title) Directed by Alejandro Brugués 2012 How can a film go wrong when you include Sid Vicious crooning Sinatra’s ‘My Way’ on its soundtrack I ask you? Answer is you cannot. This film actually had my approval with its title, ‘Juan of the Dead’. Remember that cool little British film, …
