The Prestige
I was really looking forward to seeing this film since the first trailer was shown and after seeing it, I must admit that I am not happy. The story behind the prestige is one of rivalry and jealousy; Two magicians bonded by the ties of scholarship in the art are suddenly torn apart when a tragedy occurs. Alfred Borden (Christian Bale) is the more talented of the two and has a gift of not... [Read more]
The Grudge 2
If you aren’t a fan of Japanese horror then please stop reading my post. You may call me an ass and ask why I would say something as assinine as that but to tell you the truth, I am being honest.

Having been one of the first if not the first game of survival horror, Resident Evil trailblazed the genre for yet another memorable game. Where Resident Evil made... [Read more]
Hostel (2005)
I liken a good gore movie to a good roller coaster; and like a roller coaster, there are some who love it, some who can be talked into experiencing it and others who stay far away from it. Hostel in of itself is like a brand new roller coaster that is made to shock newbies to the ride itself. It starts out smoothly, teasing you with occasional loops and deep dips here and there to get you... [Read more]
White Noise
White Noise stars Michael Keaton in a role as a widowed young husband who is haunted by the sudden loss of his beautiful wife. The outline of this film is revealed when he tries various mediums to contact his fallen bride and discovers EVP, an electronic method of contacting the dead. This movie started out beautifully, with Keaton’s acting and a great build-up, you can feel his love for... [Read more]
