The Collection Film Trailer Review

I wasn't fortunate enough to watch the first film this second one picks off, but hey it is still not too late right? I'm a bit squirmish at times but I think I'll give the first one a try first since the same characters in the first film will be on this second gore-fest of a slasher horror flick.

So what can we make out of the trailer? Well, luckily that this new mass murderer is just like the "beloved" Jigsaw from the Saw series. He is ingenious and good at creating various deadly contractions. They can't fully show the gore in this film and that's the edge of these kinds of films... the shock value. But is there anything new that can shock the slasher horror film fans? Well that is what The Collection should at least pull off in a way. In order for it to become the next Saw franchise it has to offer something more and not to become like a drained out cow milked to the bones like what other producers did with their film series.

How about you guys, are you a fan of this kind of horror film? after seeing the trailer of The Collection will you even try it out? Have you seen the first one, what can you say about it? If not, then will this make you try to grab a copy of the 2009's The Collector? Share your thoughts about The Collection movie trailer in the comments section below:

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Film Trailer Review

What can we say about the second trailer for the Hobbit 2012 film adaptation that we haven't said in the first trailer impression we did? Now the second trailer has more epic action scenes and now with the well beloved Gollum a.k.a. Smeagol. Well chances are that Gollum wouldn't even be in this first Hobbit film, but what the heck it effectively builds hype and that is not really that bad. Misleading but not bad.

It is very much welcome for most of us. I am just glad that I haven't read the books so this new Tolkien film adaptation will be fresh to me.

Grave Encounters 2 Film Trailer Review

It's been a while since a horror film scared me through and through. After Paranormal Activity, I started looking for films under the similar genre, the found footage style of filming. In the quest to look for new horror title that would actually scare the hell out me (being a horror fan and all), I happen to stumble upon 2011's Grave Encounters. Saw the trailer and was intrigued. I watched it earlier this year and found it actually entertaining. Really reminded me of the Blairwitch Project and a reality show that I've seen earlier in 2011 Ghost Hunters International. The found footage style of horror have become horror film's latest trend as observed in the success of the Paranormal Activity film franchise. So it is only natural for Grave Encounters to have a shot at a sequel right?

This time it is the audience of the fake reality television's turn to explore the haunted halls of the old psychiatric hospital that preyed on the crew on the first film. Being skeptics and fans of the first film, a group of film student embark on this quest biting off more than they could chew. Well, basing from this trailer, the hospital is really haunted. Well, DUH?!? If it isn't, then what a disappointing sequel would this film be. But good that they delivered. Well hopefully there are more scarier stuff than what is seen on this trailer. If I remembered correctly, the first film's trailer featured this particular scary moment in the film which took me when watching the actual film. Well, hopefully I'm wrong but the nurse seen in this trailer is just like that. Well, I thank this trailer for saving me a jump scare. Hopefully they will also deliver on their promise of double the everything. Please Grave Encounters 2, don't be the lame sequel that I dread when t comes to horror film sequels. If you like the found footage genre, horror, the first Grave Encounters, then this is a must. If you haven't checked the first one, try doing so to check what you're missing. I personally would be looking forward to see this sequel.

End of Watch Film Trailer Review

I'm just glad that this film will not entirely be presented in a P.O.V. perspective. That was the biggest concern I had at the start of watching the trailer. Luckily it is just a part of the entirety of the film. Although not really new, I liked at how the film focused on these two good policemen who got into a big mess because they simply did their jobs.

End of Watch 2012 crime drama film about Two police officers from the Los Angeles Police Department come upon a startling discovery, making them the targets of a drug cartel

I'd buy the drama of this film as it is the real dangers that some of our valiant men in uniforms are facing. The sad part about it that in order for some policemen to preserve their jobs, family and life, they turn a blind eye on the crooks that plague the society, the various drug cartels. Well, the film does show what will happen if ever one does decide to bust them out. I am interested the "real" life drama of the protagonists of this film will have and will it have a good or tragic end?
