Sal in Ja (2014)
Movie started off well but faded towards the end with pretty bad loopholes and illogical scenes
A serial killer....and a good son...A big dilemma and anguish faced by the son when he realises his father is a serial killer who killed his mother. A girl who made friends with the boy eventually realises his father was the killer whom she witness in the middle of a killing act previously. In the end, the boy stabbed his father to death when his father caught up with both children and tried to strangle the girl.
Storyline and pace of the story started off well. Audience have great empathy for the boy who is confused and sad that his father was a serial killer. What became illogical was how the boy decided to stab his teacher. He was of a good character and couldn't have possibly done that. And how would the boy for his tender years be able to inflict stabs strong enough to kill his father? Show was quite a let down towards the end. Although it was overall good enough to get a passable rating from myself.
The Exorcist: Believer (2023)
Very poorly scripted, directed and acted sequel to the original The Exorcist 1973
Watched this show yesterday evening at my local cinema. The movie is bad and greatly disappointing. It is nowhere even 1/5 of the standards of the original Exorcist 1973. The exorcism scene was badly done. An exorcism carried out by a motley crew and led by a woman who is not even an ordained nun. No exorcism should be carried out in the presence of such a big audience, even the victims parents was there. You will only have a qualified priest who is ably supported by a junior priest. The lady who led the exorcism has no aura, she is basically just chanting from the bible. The priest who withdrew from the start and later return looked more like a character from comedy film. The whole exorcism scene was a huge let down, saved only by a slight twist towards the end.
Bringing in the characters of Chris and Reagan from 1973 show has no relevance to the plot in this current sequel. The director tried to make the link but it fails miserably.
Very disappointing, as a sequel to the best horror of all time (Exorcist 1973 was the only horror movie till today that ever won a nomination for Best Picture at The Oscars), I seriously expected much more. I would have given it 2/10 but revised to rating of 3/10 because at least there was a twist to the end but it wasn't enough to save the movie. I'm horrified that this was to be part 1 of a planned trilogy.
Vikingulven (2022)
Intense and enjoyable show
The movie was a bit like the American Werewolf in London in the 80s. Setting was in a small Norwegian town. The girlfriend of Thale (daughter of the policewoman) was killed by a wolf and Thale was bitten by it. She was eventually undergoing a transformation when the full moon night comes. Towards the end, she attacked a bus of people and her mother have no choice but to destroy her own daughter to stop her from killing more people.
I do not understand why the movie attracted so many negative reviews and comments. It was for me a rather decent thriller and intense. Maybe the plot was simplistic but it's a movie about werewolf and not sure what majority of the audience expected.
Quarantine (2008)
Entire movie is shaking
The storyline and plot was fine actually. Rabies and humans was infected and they start attacking humans. What makes this almost unwatchable is that the entire show was shaking, you then hear constant screaming and it was near impossible to make out what was happening. Then as the screen continues shaking, it gives one almost a headache watching it. So it was like everyone inside the building was attacked and then infected one by one, including both the male and female lead. I would have thought that both might survive. Disappointing, have seen better shows with a lower rating from the audience than this.
Aftermath (2021)
Not the best but pretty good
I don't get why this movie have such low rating and the various reviews about how terrible this is.
Story was a bit slow at some parts but the climax builds up and had a pretty intense ending to it.
