Blood shed

Posted by Lokman

Back to back, i had the previllage to preview 2 blood splattering movies, coming soon to your nearest cinema.

The Decent:
"The Descent" follows an all-female cast who play extreme sports enthusiats going on their annual vacation trip. During this daredevil caving holiday, the six girls are trapped underground when an unexpected rock-fall blocks their exit. Searching the maze of tunnels for a way out, they find themselves hunted by a race of fearless, hungry predators, once humanoid but now monstrously adapted to live in the dark.

With no expectation at all and almost clueless about the premesis, i was terrifyingly taken aback at how scary this movie is. Full of shock value, this has become one of my fav brit horror to has come by.

Rating: 4/5

Saw 2:
Jigsaw is back. The brilliant, disturbed mastermind who wreaked havoc on his victims in last year’s SAW is back for another round of horrifying life-or-death games. When a new murder victim is discovered with all the signs of Jigsaw’s hand, Detective Eric Mathews (Donnie Wahlberg) begins a full investigation and apprehends Jigsaw with little effort. But for Jigsaw, getting caught is just another part of his nefarious plan. Eight more of his victims are already fighting for their lives – and now it’s time for Mathews to join the game…

Having exposed to the devious plans of the Jigsaw in part 1, the blood shed in this sequel was kind of a let down. The elaborate plan was too grandure in my opinion and somehow, it was missing the "indie" feel to it. But rest asured, blood is shed and those who get a kick seeing people killing themselves, this is your show.

The Undecided - Internet Premiere

Posted by Lokman

Having just experinced our "World Premiere" of our short film at MassB's Hari Raya open house, filmed during the Fly-By-Night 48hr film competition, its only fair that in this era of the internet, people around the world should lavish our creation. Hah hah..just kidding.

Anyway, i wasn't kidding about putting it on the net for others to ridicule at our ammeturish production. Hey~ we've all got to start from somewhere, and doing it in less than 48 hours isn't a walk in a park either...

Click on the image above to view the short film.

Sorry, no red carpet for you.

Fly By Night - The Undecided

Posted by Lokman

Never mind the runing and sweating around Singapore to find shooting locations, acting like fools, the tension of knowing the limited battery life of our cam and the endless, sleepless night producing our submission of a 5mins short film.

It. was. totally. worth. it.

But i won't be talking much about it now, cos its already 1am and I NEED MY SLEEP! It's gonna be a long day tomorrow. So i better get some rest. Stay tune for more reports of the Fly-by-Night event.

I'll leave you guys with screencaps of our very proud production. Enjoy.

"What is he doing??"

"Shall we eat KFC?"

"How dare your take my teaddy bear. Take this!"

erm..as above..

"NO..its my turn to fix the car!.."

"Keys won't work aye? Try my knife!"

I think our rounds hit a school. Quick recruit! Turn this and act innocent!

Watching movies while dying our hair.

The emperor visits HBD estates and scares poor old aunties.

"Ok. Fine. We won't eat at KFC agian..."

"..yes we have finally gone mad..mad i'm telling you.. MAD!.."

To all the peeps celebrating:

Mother Nature's light show

Posted by Lokman

Last night, nature put up a great lightning show for all to view as it streaked across the darken sky above Singapore. Lighting up the night, it was a sheer spectacle. Fortunately, i had arrived back home just in time and managed to grab my cam and capture some awesome displays.

Unfortunately i didn't have my DSLR to capture an even more dramatic picture.
I guess this will do.

Another new chapter

Call me a sucker.

Yup, The new Motorola ROKR with iTunes.
Not a bad phone, awesome MP3 capabilities but sucky camera.

I'm gonna guard this with my life.

*i'm not gonna put it in my side pocket bag. i'm not gonna put it in my side pocket bag. i'm not gonna put it in my side pocket bag. i'm not gonna put it in my side pocket bag. i'm not gonna put it in my side pocket bag. i'm not gonna put it in my side pocket bag. i'm not gonna put it in my side pocket bag. i'm not gonna put it in my side pocket bag....

Letting go

Posted by Lokman

Its almost like i was moving out. Bags after bags of junk was removed from my room and damn it was alot! I never knew i kept so many useless junk that i wonder if i was keeping it for mere memory sake or just plain lazy. Dust was everywhere and stuff that i thought i would be using has already met its rusted end. I've realised that its time for me to let go.
Let go of the technical project i made during secondary school.
Let go of the papers that will nvr see the day of light agian.
Let go of the useless devices that deemed obsolete in this ever changing future.
Let go of the damn boxes i've kept in case i need to return them.
So now its done. It feels good.

Movies at the Library

Posted by Lokman

Time for round 2.
This time, the movies are more "up-to-date", excpet for one which no matter cos its a classic from Hitchcock, my all time fave, Rear Window. Ravenous is another movie which keep sliping out of my grasp. The Colour Purple, directed by my all fav director Steven Speilberg. I can't believe i had this movie off my radar. And finally the cult fav, Army of Darkness staring Bruce Campbell. Awesome choices. Will definately be a busy week.

*sees my PMR going up now. Woohoo..

Movies Back2Back

This is kinda back-dated but what the hell:


27thth Oct: Sky High
Both qually entertaining visuals it their own genre.
Sky High is a fun filled family action comedy about kids who are enrolled in superhero high school. First off, don't diss it a side thinking it's a lame Disney flick. You'll be surprised cos it worked for me. Lots of laughs and fun all around. Definately not just for kids. Btw, my review is still at large. Sorry guys, been bz with the holiday preps.

Rating: 4/5

28th Oct: The Exorcism of Emily Rose

I'll bet alot of folks are gonna label this a horror movie, but to its truth, half of the story is really a courtroom drama with flashbacks that lead to the exorcism. What a let down some might say but fret not cos the horror is just right in those realm of flashbacks. Jennifer Carpenter (the unfortunate girl) is SO briliant in her performance that it scares the hell out of me.
