Haunting In Connecticut

There are lots of horror movies out there and most of them have same basic theme but Haunting in Connecticut is something innovative and out of the box. The story revolves around a boy who is victim of cancer named Matt. It takes a lot of distance to the hospital for his treatment so his mother Sara Campbell decides to rent a house near the hospital, going against the will of her husband. They could barely live up to their financial needs. The main character Matt wants to have basement as his room and there is one creepy wall all covered with wood cabinets and black colored glass. No one knows what lies behind this creepy wall until Matt starts to have nightmares and is haunted by a ghost kid. Besides all these Matt also comes across horrific dead people with weird symbols engraved on their body.
While his visits to the hospital Matt becomes friends with a guy called Reverend Popescu who is also a victim of cancer and is on the verge of his life. He is able to see the ghosts too as he lies at the bridge of life and death. Reverend with the intention to help him accidently makes the situation worse. Movie is little weird much it’s good.

Day of the Dead

Two highly acclaimed horror movie directors who have distinctly shown their class in this genre team together to give us a NOT so entertaining sequel of “The Day of the Dead”. The Day of the Dead 2008 shows us that a mysterious disease has affected the people of a small Colorado town with the town’s folk showing signs of nose bleed and flu. Suddenly the affected people all go still with a poker face stare and their skin starts peeling off and they become man eating Mother Nature defying zombies.

They can all jump over tall buildings and can run super fast which adds to the misery of the unaffected people. Overall the movie sucked from the writing, which was more then just poor, to the direction to the plot line which was as thick as lettuce soup. Everything was dead just like the zombies. The acting was bad with a capital B. Most viewers were pissed of by the, as they considered, sacrilege of the original movie. The directors should be somewhat ashamed for making such a movie, which only saw curses being lobbed at them from pissed fans. I wouldn’t recommend you to watch this movie even if you were dead.
