Jeepers Creepers

EXCELLENT

Year: 2001

I started to watch this film at random as I was zapping on the TVdidn't not even know it was a horror movie until I saw the monster. At that time I didn't like horror movies and ‘Jeepers Creepers’ is the first film which make me like the supernatural genre. I was not expecting anything from it and this is why I liked it so much as the movie surprised me at different times. The story about the devil monster was told on how he wakes up every twenty-three spring during twenty-three days. During those days he has to eat as much people as he can. He also has and a hobby, he likes to conserve the bodies of his victims at least the parts of them which he hadn't eat. When he targets a prey he will not let it go for any reason and unfortunately for his victims, he succeeds all the time.

Quarantine 2

GOOD

Year: 2011

I was a little disappointed at the beginning because I thought that the second ‘Quarantine’ was at any point related to the first one, OK may be it had the same virus. Yet when I continue to watch the film, images of the first movie was being diffused as news in the second one. So it was obvious that I was wrong and that they were related. The best is that not only being filmed in a different environment that the first one, the history of how the virus was created was told and explained. In ‘Quarantine 2,’there are two survivors but one is contaminated and is going to repeat the same story. So the movie didn't end well, which was expected as in the first one everybody died

Quarantine

GOOD

Year: 2008

I watched this film because I knew that Jennifer Carpenter was playing in it. Normally I don’t like films which have been filmed with a single camera because only one angle is been offered and I don’t appreciate the amateur effect of the cameraman. But when it comes to horror movies, I have found that it is a good way to make the audience feel as if they are part of the characters. The thrill can be experienced more intensely. Well as it is the name of the movie we expect that there is quarantine in it but we don’t know why. There is like and infection which turns people and animals into very primitive, aggressive and hungry creatures. I was hoping that some people would survive BUT NO; they were all transformed or eaten. The only thing which I reproach is that we don’t know how the virus is spread but it is explained in 'Quarantine 2'.

Blackout

GOOD

Year: 2008

It is a good movie, not very scary but still it is entertaining. Three completely different characters and the only thing which they have in common is that they lived in the same building and they got stuck in the elevator. I like the fact that the stories of the three of them were told and that we have to guess which one was the murdered. I thought at first that it was the young guy but it was too evident and then I thought of the doctor. The role of father and a doctor who use to save lives seem so fake to me. The guy is a complete psycho. Unfortunately the film didn't finish that well but at least among the three people in the elevator, one survived.

Shelter

EXCELLENT


Year: 2010

I really appreciate trailers because I like to have an “avant gout” of what is going to happen in a movie before watching , just to know if it is going to please me or not. But I must say that sometimes viewing a film without knowing about it is pleasant as well as it is full of surprises. ‘Shelter’ is nothing like the other horror movies I've watched. I was not able to guest why and how the people were dying in such pain. It was quite an enigma to guest the reasons of these murders and why David had so many different personalities. For my great pleasure I was able to know the history of the film, so everything was explain in time. Yet I was expecting a happy ending which never happen as Cara Harding the main character was not able to save the soul of her daughter Sammy. But it is still and excellent movie, WATCH IT!

The Forgotten

EXCELLENT

Year: 2004

didn't know anything about the film, no trailer, no people talking about it to me, I just watched it randomly. I found it fantastic and I could not guest mostly anything which was going to happen and I liked that. I really thought that the principal character, Telly Paretta was crazy and that she was imagining and creating the whole story about her son Sam. Her own husband was not even believing in her, why should I? I thought that she would fight alone to reconquer Sam but she succeeded in making other people believing in her such as: Ash Correll who lost his daughter but forgot about it, her psychologist Dr. Jack Munce and the Det. Anne Pope. It is scary to think that aliens are everywhere and that they are able to control and manipulate us like they did in the film. Hopefully the movie ended well but the extraterrestrial lives are still watching us.
