What.. What happened? Mummies in America? Ok, well let's look at the plot, some criminals are trapped in the dessert and they escape by killing the guarders except the woman of course, for some reason the woman always survives. It is a priviligde to be a woman ;) For many reason I found this film rather strange; how can the dead feel pain? How come some of them can survive sunlight while others can't? I don't understand that much... Okay, and are the mummies really mummies or just ghosts or maybe zombies? I'm not that sure. I don't have a man's mind but I can imagine that a dead hooker might not be the biggest fantasy unless you like dead people of course... Ew..
To move on to the next level let's look at this cowboy life, it seems very interesting but what can you say to it unlike that you find it kinda interesting just like many other ways of livinig like Vikings and so on. So is this film scary? I was bored to be honest.. I was just waiting for something to happen, something scary would be great. Watch it if you want but I will not recommend it.
Have a great weekend!

1408 - the film vs. short story
I'm amazed.
It's unbelievable what Mikael Håfström got out of a short story on 35 pages.
The film begins in another place and the story begins right at the time when Mike Enslin arrives to Hotel Dolphin in New York. The poor hotel manager tries to convince Enslin to stay away from the haunted room, 1408, if the room is really haunted? Is it the devil or is it a wizard's power or what is going on in that evil room? We will never know.
The short story takes place in Hotel Dolphin and we only know a little bit about Enslin's past, we know he has written books about haunted places and he has been married. We know he has been a smoker and he loves whisky. The description of the hotel and the manager is long and detailed, even though I automatically think of minimalism when I read novels. Of course there is a bit minimalism, as I said, we don't know Enslin's past and we don't know what he looks like, but the details of his work and the room. We get a feeling of what this room looks like and the paintings on the walls. The paintings change during the story and it is a little min f''king for the reader.
So what happens?
The first guy that died in room 1408 was a sewer salesman, he died in 1910. The first victim of Hotel Dolphin's demonic room.
The room starts a fire, Mike Enslin is trapped. Now he can only be saved by a sewer sales man. Even though he is out he is still in the room somehow, he's paranoid even though he suffers from amnesia, his mind is deserted.
The film takes place in different scenarios, you see him at a beach, a book signing and haunted rooms. Then he arrives at hotel Dolphin in New york and meets the manager who is trying to convince him to stay away from the room. He shows some pictures from the past 'murderess'.
In the film you really get to see how the room truly shows it's horror. You meet some weird kind of human thing which you are not really sure is human. It reminds him of how he used to treat his wife and daughter (he was probably drunk) and then you meet his dead daughter. You believe that mr. Enslin gets out of the room and everything seems perfect but suddenly there's a plot twist and you meet his daughter in the hotel room. The film has too endings, the one with the firefighters saving Enslin and the other one where mr. Enslin has a sad passing, choose which one you wanna watch ;)
See ya,

'Mirrors'
I normally don't watch horror films which include mirrors. Mirrors are creepy so they don't have to be included in horror films. What is a mirror? Are they just a reflection of what you are doing? are they a window to another dimension? can they tell you the future or what can they do? This is one of the more disturbing horror films I have watched. And that is a compliment to the producers of this film. I did not find it scary though, I could just feel how this film was playing with my mind. I'm sensitive towards supernatural and paranormal things. I like the beginning when you see a running man, what is he running from and what is happening in his mirror reflection down in the subway station? He seems very desperate and obedient to what ever is controlling him from inside the mirror.
A new guy takes over to watch the Mayflower, a big shopping center which was burned down by a guy the media think is a lunatic. The only things that wasn't touched by the fire were the mirrors. They reflect the bad energies when you see people burning alive inside them. The watchman is scared, of course, who wouldn't be?
He wants to know what's going on and why does he go down in the creepy basement through a creepy door and it's dripping at the end of the stairs? People in horror films are so stupid.
His wife is not easy to convince about what's going on, she doesn't believe it before she sees it herself. The mirrors are evil and seem to collect bad energies from the humans it kills.
If you suffer from a phobia for mirrors (the internet had too many different names for it, so I will not include it here), don't watch this film. If you are not a hardcore horror fan, don't watch it..
If you like me love horror, go watch it.
A guy from my class (former soldier in Afghanistan) doesn't dare to watch it because I told him that I found it disturbing, he found 'The Conjuring' very scary and I found it rather boring, so whatever movie I feel disturbing... IS disturbing ;)
Have a nice day

'Valentine'
So happy Valentines Day! You are getting killed with your friends ;)
And who will kill you, the fat girl, the loser boy or the one you least expect? What a lovely question. It is always nice to receive romantic rhymes, roses and chocolate. Well at least as long as the rhymes are not murder like, the chocolate is not filled with maggots and you don't get attacked with a drill when you receive the rose.
No doubt that the school system is survival of the lucky once who know's not social awkward or otherwise don't fit in. It can be tough luck, also for the losers to see how the popular once keep on getting success. What about the medicine student, do you think she's more happy than you and can she live up to the expectations? and what about the hot girl, can she keep on being the bitch and get exactly the man she's waiting for? Won't her beauty faint some day and the men disappear while? Well, when you place her in a hot tub and then attack her with a drill, then you will never know.
And in this case, you will never really know who the guilty one is. Who suffers mostly from the nosebleed, and who wore the mask at the party back in 6th grade? Was it the young Sealy Booth? xD haha, okay it was a bit cliché but he is really young in this film when you are used to watch the new seasons of 'Bones'.
But if you don't have a Valentine this year (I only had a date with my assignment), then you can watch this movie and see if you catch the killer ;)
Remember to check your chocolate for maggots and then enjoy eating it when you see it's not!
Have a nice eve!
See ya, xoxo.

'Black Christmas'
Merry Christmas, it only happens once a year and you have to be happy. Unless you get a visit from a serial killer dressed up as Santa Claus of course.
A different kind of Christmas film when you are used to films like 'Home alone'.
So who is the insane one here? The guy who kills people and eat their eyes or the abusive mother who keeps him hidden and only loves his younger sister.
Besides that he did see his father being killed by the mother and her lover.
And even serial killers want to be home for Christmas. So what to do when you return and you see that your family is gone and a bunch of fancy curling teenage girls have moved in? You make them apart of your family, and when your way of seeing them as your family is eating their eyes... well I guess that's what you do. So what happened to his younger sister whose eye was eaten?
She joins her brother who is the only family left for her.
It also cool to see some actors from some teen shows I watched when I was younger xD
So merry Christmas and watch out for your dear ones ;)

'Chernobyl Diaries'
Okay, quiet an interesting movie. It has a simple topic; some American teens wanting to experience Europe, quiet normal if you like to travel or you are some sort of interested in different cultures.
They get an extraordinary experience when they arrive in Ukraine, they can see a ghost town and just a ghost town but a radioactive one, they can experience nothing less but Chernobyl! or a town nearby but that's just as good ;)
Would you had said yes if a travel guide was with you and he promised you it would be save?
I'm not 100% sure what my answer would be, but these youngsters they chose to follow him into the mysterious adventure. They see a left town, empty... No children are laughing, no people are yelling, shouting, hurrying and no cars are driving, it is all silent!
They take pictures and makes sure that they will remember this for the rest of their lives... When you are young you feel kinda immortal, right?
Okay, maybe I would have said yes after all since I have seen a ghost town from the outside when I was kid, it was in Cyprus before it became a member of the EU and yet here I am, still alive... But of course it was not a radioactive area.. like this, where animals has taken over and now only the strongest will survive, or 'survival of the fittest' as Darwin used to say.
I still don't understand the bear though... this film could had been cool without.
I don't understand why this film is so low rated on Netflix, of course it is a weird film and not quiet perfect, but still very interesting. I like the parts where it gets dark and they are stuck in there to next morning and what to do when you are surrounded by angry dogs who are high radioactive?
Well, you wait for them to be gone.
And then your travel guide disappears and then what do you do? you will try to find him and then get away.. but what if something follows you?
Let's take a look to see how realistic this film is, They swim in a radioactive river... I cannot recommend doing that since all the water around Chernobyl are deadly, and you do not eat the fish you catch their. And if you saw the fish you wouldn't want to eat them. So that part is not possible at all. Next part when they actually end inside the core of the abandoned power plant and I have to say you do not live for long in there and you have no time to be a drama queen... that's for sure. So that is, even though you see weird human kinda things, this is more unrealistic, because who says that you cannot create some sort of human being who can live under these circumstances?
This is kind of a mix between 'Wrong turn' and 'The hills have eyes'.
Well, I think you should take your time to watch this film if you are interested in weird phenomena. So how do I understand the end? I'm no expert though but I think these creatures where made by mad scientists since they have a room full of them.
Watch it, it is worth it and maybe you can figure out the bear?

'Mandela - long walk to freedom' - the film
A great story of one of the most inspiring people in the fight for human rights and equalities.
A beloved man with a good heart on the outside and even his dark sides are seen as well.
He is full of dignity and even though he is angry and kinda mentally abused.
This film is worth watching even though it is long and not full of action (a film doesn't need a lot of action to be good).
I was very fascinated of Mandela's way of seeing his fight for human rights, he wanted it without blood! That's a thing no one can ever take away from him, he wanted a peaceful revolution and well it is a bit a shame he didn't get what he wanted since it turned out really bloody and violent. But what did the government expect? If you take a big bunch of people and take away all their rights including votes and then includes a 'heartbreak law', so that whites and 'non-whites' cannot be married, how can you not expect these people to protest and turn out violent? I don't believe in violence, but I sill understand their frustrations. This actor who plays Mandela is really good at imitating his voice and difficult accent. Now I'm so used to many sorts of English so I understood what he said, but a lot of non English people prefers subtitles on this film, even a girl from my class who has lived in Cape Town.
I can really recommend everyone to watch this film, but if you have no interest in big historical moments, then this is a very long film. But why not give it a chance and try to watch this to become multicultural and learn something very important? Apartheid is not the way. As Mandela said when he was released from prison: 'Apartheid has no future', and he was right. I just can't believe I was 2 month old before it ended...
I think this movie is a great way to honor on of the biggest men in modern history, he needs to be celebrated and remembered by us, the next generations and to the end of the world.
Keep it in mind.
