A Nightmare On Elm Street


Another title of freddy’s nightmare has been added to the freddy’s franchise and this time it is Nightmare on Elm Street. The movie has the same basic theme but it has been presented in the different rather stylish way. Freddy is back with some more blood on his claws, the movie starts off with freddy’s first kill, killing a guy with knife in his neck. Basically movie based to grab the attention of new generation.

The movie progress in very pleasing way, you will not be pulling your hairs after watching as most of the horror movies made you do that. Every character is indirectly linked with the other at the same time not knowing that fact and this is something that adds up to the movie’s advantage, unlike the previous ones that had group of friends. The story revolves around group of high school kids who once went to school together but now they are unfamiliar with each other which lead to mu second point. And that is ‘realism’, the movie is pretty much logical. Unlike the usual horror movies in which the actor had eyes full of revenge and dashing cuts on their face, the actors seem to be worn out as the end draws near, something canny.

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.
