Daybreakers

Watched @ Funshion

This is not the usual vampire story, vampires are immortals, but killable. They are still afraid of daylight and still feeds on human blood. The story begins in the future where most of the world's population are vampires and are facing a shortage of human blood to feed the vampires. Although the producers are the same ones as Matrix, I think the plot is kindda poor in that sense or maybe vampires are just not as smart as i thought.

Humans are captured and bleed dry for their blood, and when dried, they dispose the human. HOW DUMB IS THAT!!?? Even the Matrix from that long ago has the common sense to keep the humans alive for the extended shelf life. And the vampires in this movie simply used humans like disposables, dumb vamps!! It's probably cos the script was written so so long ago, perhaps way before the matrix and perhaps way before they heard of cloning.

Those are the worst loopholes that have left me utterly disappointed with the plot, otherwise it could have been a much better movie. oh yah, i think the producers also tried very hard to stereotype their vampires, in this movie, they are weak, they just dun age, but they can be killed quite easily.

However, I do like the twist in the vampire legends, vampires can turn back into humans, and man can return a plague of their own back onto the vampires. I liked that part.

Lesbian Vampire Killers

Watched @ PPStream

Basically this show is so BAD!! so bad, the lesbians are pretty much the only watchable thing the whole movie. I think UK movies have big issues with comedy, they just cant do it. The only comedy they come up with nowadays are C-rate movies like this one. Shitty, the plot is really really lousy, except for a few lame laughs there's not much to it. Oh btw, this movie features one of the WEAKEST vampires ever to hit the screen. Perhaps even the zombies in zombieland were harder to kill.

Twilight - New Moon

Watched @ The Grand Cathay

This is 2nd episode to the twilight saga. have not read the book but perhaps like harry potter, watch and not read is probably advisable. twilight 1 is really captivating, new way which the vampire story is told, really attracted the curiosity of movie goers. twilight 2, is not that new anymore, it's a continuation of the storyline.

the werewolf part of the story shld really be the core of this movie. from what i hear about the readers of the book, the bulk of the story should be about the love story of bella and jacob. That was not seen in the movie, sadly it's more about bella going freaky about losing edward and going unscrupulous to see him no matter wat.

But it is still not a bad movie, I still like it and i'm looking forward to the next 2 installments of the series.... i'm quite surprised that dakota fanning was in the movie, TOTALLY did not notice her there.. hahaa...

Oh and I really like Alice!! She is attractive beyond bella...
