SUCKER PUNCH
Weak, weak, weak storyline. Nice eye candy, but the rest is a ripoff of Anime classics like Battle Royale...

CIRQUE DU FREAK: VAMPIRE ASSISTANT
Another one I really wanted to watch... The story is simple, straight-forward... no surprises here. The good: Entertaining if you don't think about it. I loved the red/blue spider (and I hate spiders)! The bad: I just could not get past the Cellophane guy (Chicago) being the main vampire... Ugh! Ok, so not all vampires are dashing... the problem is the guy's personality just doesn't work for this character. The common sense advice: It is a good rental. Next!
THE THAW
This is kinda like Cabin Fever... just with jurassic creepy crawlers... another interesting concept with enough to keep your attention in the movie.
LAW ABIDING CITIZEN
The plot is actually nice, the movie quite entertaining. Finally, something that at least is worth being seen in the big screen! it is hilarius especially if you watch THE UGLY TRUTH and then watch this... the twisted, dark, psychotic sequel... sort of.
The movie is fast paced. It keeps you awake as you wonder what will be next thing (although you know who the next victim will be) as the killings are very creative. That judge's death was sublime, from a dark point of view! And the whole movie makes us think about how our justice system works, and the sad reality that yes... innocent people get screwed and bad people roam free playing their cards with the system helping them. Nice to go see at the movies, cash well spent.
10-4

SCREAM 2009 AWARDS
The SCREAM2009 Awards at least brought an interesting show to a dull Tuesday night. It was hilarious watching the Vampire Diaries crew giving the best TV show award to TRUE BLOOD. Loved Johnny Depp speech when receiving the award for Most Expected movie (Alice in Wonderland). The award winners may not be on track (I don't know why the old lady from Drag me to Hell did not win... oh, yeah, I forget, she is not a sexy fox, literally... That is basically the BIG complaint... people are mostly winning because of sexyness, not talent. The biggest talent is Johnny Depp, as he turns everything into a masterpiece and he doesn't care if he looks sexy or not (now THAT is an artist!). But, hey... this is the stupid, glitter-vampire Twilight era... Ugh! Well, all in all... nice previews (looking forward to V, but scared it will be a V depiction of Smallville...).
Good 2 hour show, entertaining... the winners are off, but so is the whole world.

JENNIFER's BODY & NOSTRADAMUS2012
JENNIFER's BODY: Well. if you go with a teen mind, it is not so bad. It was short and sweet. People critique nailed it... but gee, no one nailed Transformers or GIJoe and now THAT was BAD scripting! I liked the idea of the movie, it was ok, taking into account the new vampire/werewolf/supernatural craze. Right there with pther corny movies, but watchable.
NOSTRADAMUS 2012: Nice documentary to make your fatalistic fetishes come to life. Yup, we are near the end of the Mayan calendar, and I suspect that on 2012 there will be the same craze as in the big Y2K thinguie... But watching it is a bit eerie, as we all know where we are heading with the pole meltdown, the broken ozone layer and the deforestation. We are in to many big catastrophies... that is VERY certain. This movie plus reading the FATIMA profecies, will leave you pretty mind-f*@d-up.

SHORTS, GAMER, HALLOWEEN2
SHORTS: I really liked this movie. It is very entertaining and fun, love how all the "shorts" were tied together. Of course, it is from Robert Rodriguez... Need I say more?
GAMER: It was ok, eye candy... Another rendition of virtual meets real... The fun world was very much like the Sims gone wrong LOL At least it has been much better than the so called summer blockbusters...
HALLOWEEN2, Rod Zombie version: Ok, so my dear hubby made me watch this piece of s**t. 'nuff said.

Ice Age 3
ICE AGE 3: Amen. Smart & funny. A MUST see! Can you believe it, much better than anything else playing right now!
Knowing
KNOWING: Surprisingly one of the best movies of late... and still, it is just entertaining... not a wow... It has too much of scenes we have seen in many other movies. That ending reminded me of the big wave coming over the lady hugging her father in front of the lighthouse... after the asteroid crash... Same thing, different element (this time, a devastating sun beam).
Harry Potter & Half-Blood Prince
HARRY POTTER & the Half-Blood Prince: A bit dissapointing, I think this movie should not have been divided in two... It left it open to too much slow action. I almost fall asleep. I know, they are just focusing on the changes in the teens but come on... Love Snape, though. And hated seeing so little of Bellatrix.

Puerto Rico Horror Film Fest 2009
Puerto Rico Horror Film Fest 2009
October 22, 2009 - October 26, 2009
El festival de cine fantástico, horror, bizarro y terrorífico Puerto Rico Horror Film Fest convoca a realizadores que quieran mostrar sus películas. La llamada apunta a corto, medio y largometrajes encuadrables dentro de los géneros fantástico, bizarro, ciencia ficción y terror.
El Puerto Rico Horror Film Fest ya es un referente para la producción hispanoamericana de ciencia ficción, terror y fantasía, además es una puerta de entrada para películas que muy difícilmente se pueden ver en Puerto Rico por lo especializado de su género. Esta muestra irá creciendo edición tras edición, en lo que respecta a programación, repercusión periodística y, fundamentalmente su público.
Esta muestra es un espacio fundamental para un tipo de cine que tradicionalmente es olvidado pero de gran aceptación en las audiencias.
El Puerto Rico Horror Film Fest, festeja su segundo año de sangre, terror, irreverencia, humor negro y lo más "indie" del cine de terror.
