Smiley Film Trailer Review

Well this is... refreshing? A new serial killer who now wears a smiley mask. The only question is Will it be more like the supernatural "Candy Man", or much more grounded to the truth like the "Scream" killer? Well basing from the genre it falls under, it obviously falls in the latter.

Well, we haven't seen that much slasher films and if ever this new Smiley becomes popular, then we may have ourselves a new series to follow. I just don't know if that's good or bad, but seeing the trend of films in Hollywood for the last decade or so, it is not that inconceivable. I just find it amusing how can a lighthearted emoticon like the smiley can be used as a theme or a mascot for a thriller. The only question is will they actually pull it off?

How about you guys, what do you think about an internet urban legends that may potentially be out there to kill you ala Bloody Mary? Share your thoughts about the Smiley official trailer in the comments section below:

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:

Prepare for the Final Slaughter with Saw 3D

After six gruesome films, Saw will finally close its bloody curtain with the release of Saw 3D. What better way to end a popular slasher horror film franchise than ending it in bloody 3-D.



Saw 3D Synopsis
Premise

As Jigsaw is revealing to Adam to be the mastermind behind all of the "games" (Saw), Dr. Gordon is crawling in the hall outside the bathroom to try and find help. Along the way he reaches a hot pipe and uses it to cauterize his amputated foot. The next scene cuts to an urban shopping area where a crowd of people gather around a storefront window to find two men, Ryan and Brad, tied to a worktable, each with a buzz saw in front of them and their lover, Dina, suspended above. As she is being lowered onto another buzz saw, each of the men must choose to either kill the other person in order to save her, or allow her to die, resulting in their freedom.



Meanwhile, survivors from Jigsaw's previous traps gather to seek the support of self-help guru and fellow survivor Bobby Dagen. Mark Hoffman and Jill Tuck battle over Jigsaw's legacy.
