The Current IT thing

I'm pressured btw because i've been working like a mule...but enuff about that...I just saw this movie Hollowman 2(which is sooooo mild btw..so no need to review) and there's this one scene where a bad guy who yap yap yap in the middle of the street and BANG a car hit him...ok so why am i highlighting this scene?...like the topic above...i just wanna highlight what seems to be the "in" thing of current horror movies.
Well sure slasher movies with screaming girls running in the woods(not to mention those awesome boobs!...sorry jurina)is still been use in todays movies...but somehow i see a trend here..maybe because it's the easiest effect to do nowadays...i dunno...but getting hit by a car in the middle of the road is sooooooooo overuse in todays movie.Cause basically i totally see it coming when someone yaps in the middle of the road....or doing basically anything in the middle of the road will get hit!...but when did the trend actually starts?...as far as i can remember..i think it may begin in Meet Joe Black?but that's not a horror story(unless u consider mushy movies very horrific)...so i guess the farthest i can remember is probally Final Destinatnion 1 when kerr smith's overly makeup gf got run over by the bus(totally didnt see it coming btw)....and since then...there are lots of reincarnation of that particular scene..one comes to mind is the Devils Reject(tuh je aku leh cari caps asap benda banyak jer)...but if u think it started before FD 1...be my guest..do list it out.

SPLAT! and the crowd goes wohoooooooo!


Another "in" thing...apart from izar beeing the new hot thing in dating society nowadays(yeh izar aku kena highlight kor...can't help it) is the plotline where it ends with.."OH DEAR GOD...I GOT MULTIPLE PERSONALITY.." overuse anyone?fine, when the first 2 movie and then skip a year and came back was fine....but thennn it came pouring for nearly every movie...

My jaw totally dropped! when Identity finished...seriously...I blurted out brilliant!..i totally didnt see it coming...then came something else..which i went lalala whatever...then came!(SPOILERS!) MADHOUSE(mild),SECRET WINDOW(ZZZZZZZZ),HIDE AND SEEK(totally guess the ending a mile away)...etc,so me guess this is also one of the current "in" things for horror movie(there goes my script...damn)...oh if ur up to it...come note more movies that use this plot as an ending...the one i can remember for now is those 3..and identity

i leave u with day of the dead remake...perlu ke?

i was thinking meet joe black also...tapi the 'in' thing selain car crash pun dah ade...seperti dihempap/dilanggar ape2 la selain kereta....im thinking Terminator 2...ntah maybe silap...tapi scene dalam FD mmt memorable dan biasa la lepas tu akan ade org abusing the same idea...
split personality dalam movie selain genre horror pun banyak digunakan seperti Fight Club etc....tapi actually bukan split personality yg ditekankan tapi 'expect the unexpected' yg cuba digunakan utk twist ending yg kononnyer brilliant...macam Usual Suspect dan Momento...

haaaaaaaa yep2,tapi me saying split personality in sense of cam cita2 aku list tuh...semuanyer...ada dual identity...in identity(movie) case lain skit lah...momento and usual suspect mmg twist lain..speaking of twist u should see ghost whisperer azmir...dianyer ending ternganga siot...bagi aku lah...cause tak expect show2 remeh nih leh come out with that kind of ending
