halloween ii

Rob Zombie’s Halloween II

If you have watched the first Halloween then you already know what to expect from this second film – a lot of stabbing and blood. Even if you haven’t watched the first movie you would still be able to keep track with the story through Laurie’s recollection and flashbacks.

last vampire

Chris Nahon: Blood – The Last Vampire

This is a thriller, action and horror flick in one. The main character in the movie is Saya, a beautiful 16-year-old Asian girl who is actually 400 years old. She was born by a vampire with a human father and she had been fighting vampires since she was young.

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

Carlos Saldanha Takes Us To Ice Age 3

This is definitely the best Ice Age sequel ever and you’d surely laugh your hearts out from the beginning up to the very end as our wacky favorite characters such as Sid, Diego, Manfred and Ellie are out for another awesome adventure.

hotel for dogs

Thor Freudenthal’s Hotel for Dogs

It’s a story about the siblings Andi and Bruce who live in a foster home. In their foster home, dogs are strictly not allowed and the two had no choice but to follow the rules. Then, one day, they met an adorable dog that they just can’t let him go so they thought of a way on how to take care of their new pet.

Mark Herman’s “Boy in the Striped Pyjamas”

This is a very heart-warming movie that was set during World War II and when the Nazis put all the Jews in concentration camps. The movie is not focused on the war or the deaths of the Jews and how they were all tortured but it’s a story that focused on 2 little boys with very innocent minds that was bound by friendship when they should be, in fact, enemies.

The 2 main characters here are Bruno and Shmuel. Shmuel is the boy that is wearing the outfit that looks like striped pyjamas while Bruno is on the other side of the electrified fence, living a very comfortable life as the son of a Nazi commandant. Shmuel is held as a captive in a Jew concentration camp and as unlikely as it may seem but the two boys became friends even if they were separated by electric fences.

It’s a movie that will surely make anybody cry. The innocence of these 2 little boys and the situation that they are in is enough to make the toughest of hearts start to cry.

night at the museum

Shawn Levy – Night at the Museum 2

Ben Stiller’s Character, Larry, is back for another awesome adventure. This time it involves the Smithsonian and he has to save his old pals from the Smithsonian and especially from Kahmunrah, an evil Pharaoh that actually proves to be a very entertaining character in the movie.

friday the 13th

Marcus Nispel’s Friday the 13

If you love a movie where most of the people die and just 1 or 2 lives in the end then Friday the 13th is always the best movie to watch. We’ve watched this since the first movie was released in 1980 and it became so popular that Friday the 13th is always feared that maybe Jason would come out and kill us all.

bled

Christopher Hutson’s Bled

This is a vampire movie that does not follow with the traditional belief we have about vampires. It wants to go away from the usual and create a new version of how vampires come to be. Although vampires are indeed fiction but they want to make the vampires seem real with how they blend it in the story as if the vampires are from another dimension and they thrive by the blood of their victims so they can cross over into our realm.

James Gray and Two Lovers

This is a story about the man named Leonard, portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix, and his romantic relationships between two women whom he met almost at the same time. The character of Leonard is a troubled man who lives with his parents in Brooklyn.

The two women are named Michelle, portrayed by the alluring Gwyneth Paltrow, and Sandra, portrayed by Vinessa Shaw. He met Sandra after a big dinner with his family as a way to introduce him to her. His parents wanted to set them up because Sandra’s family would soon be buying the dry cleaning business of Leonard’s family. Michelle, on the other hand, is a woman who is quite as troubled as Leonard is but there’s just this chemistry between them that seems to burst almost instantly as his eyes met hers. She’s their new neighbour and in the story, slowly the deep secret of Michelle is discovered. She actually lives in a unit that a married man actually pays for and that adds more to the ensemble.
