The Walking Dead (2010)
Best new series 2010?
First heard about this show a few weeks back. Since I love zombie-movies I had to see what this was all about. At first glimpse I was a little skeptic, but the trailer convinced me otherwise.
I just watched the first episode and it matches all my expectations and MORE! I loved movies like Dawn of the Dead(new version), 28 days/weeks later, I Am Legend etc. This series is just like that, it's zombies/monsters but still very realistic.
The way the plot is presented is very entertaining, but not very surprising. The acting is top-notch and very believable. A drawback with TV-series is that the effects are usually quite tacky. However, here it's quite the opposite. Everything looks very realistic and honestly quite disgusting, in a good way.
I can't wait to watch the next episode!
Turistas (2006)
What's with the bad rating?
I read someones comment about how Brazilians are giving this movie bad rating, and I have to say that I understand them. I wouldn't like it either if it was my country and my people that were portrayed like this. However, this is one of the better horror movies recently produced. A lot of the times when you watch horror movies you're simply amazed at how stupid the characters in the movie are. For once I would say this movie actually got it right. No screaming idiots running around like chickens getting themselves killed, they actually use some common sense here, which I liked. The acting is pretty decent, if not good. I'm from Sweden, and I was a bit disappointed that the swedes had to die first. =)
