Anak didik Jigsaw

Milking money from the success of Saw, here are 2 graduates of Jigsaw's School of Torture.

Nine Dead
9 strangers kena culik - digari kemudian dicampak dlm some secluded room.Every 10 min sorang akan dibunuh, until they figure out why are they there in the place.
Well cerita nih agak tame dari segi gore/kills(jigsaw wouldn't be impress). Cerita nyer pon cam agak low budget, most kills are offscreen or implied.Tapi cerita nyer ada lah, walaupon slow moving menarik gak ah nak tau apa masalah kidnapper nih. Para pelakon sekor pon tak kenal with one exception, Melissa Joan Hart of Sabrina Teenage Witch fame. Tuh pon antara sebab aku nak tgk cerita nih, kalau tak confirm leh skip. She did ok jer. Yg lain2 pon ok jer, nahthing impressive.And in the end, overall ceritanyer oklah..cerita ada. Tapi ending dia sangat lah bodoh aku taktau apa motive penulis cerita nih. End.


Collector
Pencuri masuk rumah satu family nih nak curi some diamond. While in the house dia perasan something is off, rupa2nyer family dah kena bound and gag kat basement kena torture slowly...ooooh HOT!
Now this I love a lot! The villain is Brutal yo! (Jigsaw would be impress) His traps
were nuts!..bear traps/wires/knifes galore. And the look they gave him pon cool gila. He got Riddick-like (Pitch Black) eyes. How he killed his victims are brutal!He's like Jigsaw and Michael's son if they would mate (and if its possible)Suspense wise was good gak since main lead dia effective dan agak likeable. Oh minah "Fucking and Punching" from Californication pon ada, watak slutty of kos.Err..apa lagi yeh..ah senang kata aku suka cerita nih, doesn't hold back..love love love, one complain though is the logic camner sempat dia pasang trap yg sangat awesome tuh in one night.Tuh jer..lain thumbs up.

Cerita2 merapu minggu ini

Straight to the point; movie2 minggu nih dan beberapa yg dah lepas aku usha agak bagus dan sesuai di recommend kepada khayalak ramai. I'll start with movie cinema of the week. Lovely Boner.


Lovely Bones
After last weeks bust (ALICE IN WONDERBRA!!!!!) aku nekad nak tgk cerita bagus. It came down to Lovely Bones Or Edge of Darkness, and Lovely Bones won solely cause Peter Jackson's name is attached to it. Lama dah terdengar cerita nih, malah ramai gak member2 dah men-dl cerita nih, aku jer lupa. Kisahnyer budak nih mati kena bunuh tapi stuck in limbo-ish place looking in her parents in the real world. Budak nih..from viewers perspective , well at least for me..sangat sangat likeable , from the get go character minah ni di-introduce, aku dah go awwww nice kid. So when it is made known she'll die (murdered lak tuh) ..Bummer! Dalam cerita2 slasher most characters mmg in it are one dimensional/ annoying nak mampus, hence dead or not..we wouldn't actually give a damn. But when one character is likeable you'll root for it, that's what happened here, apart from the lead kid, pelakon2 lain juga highly likeable. (except the killer)

Ada satu part suspense nih aku gila cuak akan safety budak nih(bkn lead but also a likeable character), malah ada minah mana entah belakang aku duk jerit "CEPAT CEPAT"...tapi diakui adengan tuh gila well made, aku berdebar2 time nih. Now the opposite, killer tuh..gila aku benci, which is good cause wataknyer berjaya, lakonan dia berjaya. Banyak kali aku rasa nak choke slam mamat tuh.

Pacing cerita nih pon just nice, ada part fantasy yg sangat cool, ada part drama yg mmg patut ada, ada adengan suspense tiba2, dan ada juga part lawak in which agak off but whatever since Susan Sarandon yg berlakon. Overall cerita nih sangat bagus bagi aku, ending jer lah aku cam ish skit. Highly recommended


REC 2
Sambung directly from the first film, aku taklah berapa in love ngan Rec1, aku love the remake lagi Quarantine. But Rec 2...WOW. Nicely done. Satu benda standout bagi aku ialah the explanation of the "outbreak". That was new, at least bagi aku.

Pacing bagi aku kali nih sangat bagus, problem bagi aku ngan Rec 1 adalah sbb pacing..I was bored up till the last 20 minute or so baru lah something worthwhile happen. Kali nih dari awal hingga abih ,laju. Suspen lak tuh, ada banyak adengan org kena cornered pastuh zomba nyer kiri kanan, trap..oooh scary shit. hehe.

Dan this time bukan satu jer camera, tapi 3 jenis camera berlainan yg digunakan. Which actually made the movie more exciting, cause dari POV org lain lak, (side note : hopefully Cloverfield 2 camnih lah) Dan they added teens into the equation..woahhh..kanak2 in peril. COOL! Tentu remake Quarantine2 (if ada, cause aku dengor ada) ragu2 nak add kanak2..kalau ada pon pelakon2 20-an pretending to be 13. Lastly ade feel cam dlm game, dia ada cam hidden clue here and there to find the big boss which made me go all excited and in awe. Another great movie..highly recommended if ur into this lah.


Bitchslap
Kisah 3 wanita yg ingin mencari missing treasure..hmm tuh jer kot. I dunno how to fell bout it, part of me love it's corniness and part of me said HUH? Sng ckp cerita nih exploit lah gak kaum wanita. Ada satu adengan nih, 3 aweks nih tgh cangkul tanah..tiba2 sorang panas, so tuang lah satu baldi air sejuk atasnyer, tiba2 campak kat org sebelah, dan diteruskan ke org sebelah last2 semua pesta tuang air atas satu sama lain..aku....kagum. AHAHAHA, ada cerita camnih yeh. So by now you should know, plot cerita nih ZERO! Lakonan usah ckp ah, fail (kecuali the cute dark haired chic). Good thing is style cerita nih menarik dan really funny at times. Plus part lawan2 dia cool gak, oh look out for satu minah nih watak cam GO-GO Yubari from Kill Bill Vol 1, me likey. Tapi Go-go cooler. Not really recommended tapi usha ah if nak tgk cerita mengarut gila.


Crossing Over
Wow cerita nih datang dari mana entah. Aku tgk pon cause fikir rugi ada astro tapi tgk cam seminggu sekali jer. So usha jer lah apa ada di mlm ahad arituh dan this one looked interesting. Pesal immigrants kat States. Cerita nih leh kata bagaikan Crash, multiple stories that intertwine in one movie. Oh juga ia pesal race. How true or not the portrayal of immigration problems is aku xtaulah. But it's still an eye opener for me. Dan nak kata Americans are too harsh lak, tak gak. Cause bertubi2 manusia nak masuk negara miker illegally, tak ke stress? Entah ah..cerita political message nih aku tak berani sentuh. Yg aku tau cerita nih bagus.

Oklah nak gi pengsan atas katil, minggu ni hati suh tgk Frozen, tapi keeping the excitement low key. Over2 excited lak karang movienyer mengecewakan (dam u ALICE!)

Eh...Wonder Years!


Dunno why I picked this picture

Not really much work it seems today, so I was flipping through OMG blog (yes I read OMG blog sue me) and me eye strayed to this one article. "Danica McKellar expecting 1st child", and I was like whoooooo??? But then I notice the smaller description below, "Wonder Years star", and I was like OMG (coincidence?) that chic in Wonder Years!..I remembered watching this Rad show way back when I was..I dunno 6? maybe circa 6-10. Cute show, truth be told I actually envision myself as the lead, heck someone even told me I looked like the dude, u know big eyes, big hair all the right moves (ok aku pon muntah baca nih).Then the Daydreaming non stop,drama blah3..figures how come to be now huh? Anyhoot..this one lil trivial article (FRED SAVAGE!..just suddenly remembered the lead's name..ahahaha!) made me whooosh flashback my childhood years watching this show. I especially remembered the zit episode, funny shit. Eh net should have the dl-able episodes right?..well that's the first thing I wanna do when I get back from work today..Hotfile don't fail me now!..oh and p/s: Winnie aka Danica McKellar is looking mighty fine.

Drama skit nak tgk Alice

Was so pumped to watch Alice today, but sampai2 office, dengar cerita ada meeting dengan big boss lakkkkkkkk! Benda dah semalam aku book kat Signature tgk movie nih..agak emo lah gak. Pastuh manager datang kata kena gi gak no excuse..if xmo pi bitau big boss...fine by me..bknnyer selalu aku dapat bersocial weekday nih..entah pesal aku agak gemar kuar weekday, tambah jumaat. Tambah lagi! nak mengajak org kuar weekday, nasib lah ada sorang nih selalu sudi teman every weekday yg aku nak berwayang. Bkn sng yeh nak jumpa org camnih.

Dah lah tadi dress up agak sakan dari normal pi office, satu indication hebat! I got something to do tonight. Pastuh kul 3 manager nyer maih tanyer aku..of kos aku kata tak gi..dan aku kata kuar ngan a friend..patut aku mention hot date kot..baru depa pasang panjut buang ruffles2 kat aku on my way out..kot. Obviously me being hard headed (aries duh) nekad xmo gak..whatever happens, happens jer lah. Aku bukan apa (gaya razli) 1.tix nyer (bkn nak menunjuk) agak mahal..dan aku banjer..hello rugi gila if tiba2 tak jadi dah suh dia cari teman lain. 2. Like I said above, aku suka bersocial weekday.Aku gila treasure time aku keje siang..gila gila gila. 3. Mindset dah set nak tgk waynag arituh. Keje aku bereskan by noon! (yes aku ada keje banyak kekadang..cuma i decide not to whine 24/7 bout it in FB jer)

So dengan hati risau skit tapi penuh ikhlas aku blah jer..lepak rumah kakak sat dulu cause ikut petua Milo kena workout dulu sebelum kuar. Bwahahahahah. Pastuh kaki aku sakit lah pulak, yg jenis jalan kena enjut2..pn ibu lak risau..suh en bapa urut skit sebelum aku kuar..hence aku kuar lah lambat skit. Pastuh ikut lah lebuh raya Mex nak senang sampai Gardens..tgh lalala menyanyi eh..signboard simpang Bangsar aku lepas. Babiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! Aku dah effing this and that dah..dah ler aku agak lambat nih. But xpa happy thoughts happy thoughts sing a happy song. "when u look at me tell me what u see" ...eh tuh lagu Pam Abd Rahman. "I wanna hak I wanna hak", yeah that song will do.So sampai lah kl kat simpang Kg Pandan..agak cuak cause aku tak biasa kl, dan aku tau confirm jam..and wala! JAM. Sialan tul..so patah balik lah slowly ke arah Sg Besi and what do u know? again...AKU MISS SIMPANG CHERAS!...arghhhhhhh! camnih nak masuk Amazing Race???...confirm drive off a cliff..time nih mmg leh ngaku lah gak level himbo aku tinggi.Apa2...sedar2 aku kat area Bangsar..area rumah lama Dela time dia goda aku ngan botol air ibu dia.

Elok 8 pm aku sampai Gardens, thennn...aku got lost kat lift...baboon tul.Again...camnih kor(aku) nak masuk Amazing Race???!?!?!? But it was confusing..aku kuar jer lift tempat parking..kuar again..tempat parking..apa kejadah..by that time aku confirm rasa manager aku En. Santhanam curse aku kot. Xpa redha jer..dan just in the nick of time..815 aku sampai Signature Gardens, fuh...makeup masih intact..ahahahaha!

Dan diakhiri dengan Alice..meh..could be better. Tapi Jurina dan Milo silalah bawak couple memasing gi tgk..korang boleh sukanyer. Dah alang2 tuh aku juga ingin nyatakan...Descent 2 good, Solomon Kane so-so, Buku Eli BAGUS!..dan Percy good fun.


Didnt see this one coming, loved it!


Good sequel, the crawlers look better in the first one though


Possibly the best actress in the movie, loved her character

Looking pretty good actually..

Nightmare remake is looking pretty good as of late. Baru tgk trailer earlier...and hmm freaky, heard they're going back to basic, no one liners no joking...just slash and dice..bagus gak..cause Freddy lama (except 1st one) banyak one liner joke..in fact dia ckp banyak sangat.Casting pon not bad...awek belakon Ruby dlm Supernatural (aku lupa nama benar dan malas search) ada dan beberapa new names, truthfully I don't dig the new Nancy, tapi apa2 jer lah. Yg pasti adengan Tina mampus wajib ada!..harap Ruby + FX power time tuh. Anyhoot nih fan poster...cun gilos, patut nih jadi main poster..or teaser at least..apa "1 - 2 freddy's coming for you.". Eda aku booking kor...for obvious reasons! ahahahaha, eh if kuar Malaysia lah. Kalau tak kuar..boooooo Finas
