Horror Weekly News: Ben Affleck stars in Hypnotic. The Clock gets a trailer.

 



Filmmaker Robert Rodriguez is back with another thriller. The filmmaker who js behind films like Sin City  Spy Kids, and Once Upon a Time in Mexico, now brings you a brand new thriller starring Ben Affleck.


The trailer shows Ben Affleck playing a detective who is looking for his missing daughter.


It starts with Detective Daniel Rourke dealing with a bank heist. He comes across a man sitting on a bench, talking to a woman about how hot it is today.


The next instant, the woman begins to remove her clothes and walks into incoming traffic.

It is then that the detective finds a box in a locker that contains a photo of his daughter.


As he chases the man, he finds the man has interesting abilities to hypnotise people. The detective manages to get out of a tough spot and must then enlist the help of a specialist who tells him about Hypnotics who have the ability to influence the brain and make people see things that are not there.


The detective must now deal with things that aren't there. Will he be able to find his daughter on time?


Is his daughter even in danger? Perhaps he is hypnotised into believing she is so that he is distracted.


The movie promises twists and turns, and action galore.


HYPNOTIC stars Ben Affleck and William Fichtner and releases on March 12th.

The Limehouse Golem- My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: When Elizabeth's husband is found dead, all fingers point to her. But is it really her or the work of a serial killer? If like me, you’ve read hundreds of mysteries and are enthused about Sherlock Holmes tales, THE LIMEHOUSE GOLEM is actually pretty predictable. Set in the Victorian Era, it promises to instil fear in you. Before Jack the Ripper, there was Golem- such is the tagline and you do want it to be the kind of movie that keeps you guessing until the very end as to the true identity of the killer.   Unlike the Jack the Ripper legend, Golem is easily recognizable in the very first instance the character is introduced.

Delirium (2018)— My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: After leaving the asylum and put in house arrest, Tom begins to believe the house is either haunted or he is hallucinating.  Most times, when we think about criminals, we wonder what could possible have prompted them to fall into a life of crime.

Look Away— my take on the movie with spoilers!

Plot Summary: A bullied girl switches places with her reflection. She soon regrets her decision as people start dying.  What matters most? Looks or confidence? When we see someone for the first time, we do notice their looks, the way they dress. Personality and their ability to initiate and hold a conversation comes second, doesn't it? Imagine meeting someone who is good looking but is dull to the core. Now imagine someone with average looks but is someone you can have fun with or have an intellectual conversation. Which seems more attractive? Look Away takes a very bold stand where appearances are concerned. But also about self-confidence. In the end, the only argument it makes is that one cannot possess both attributes. LOOK AWAY Movie Plot  We are introduced to a timid girl, Maria whose father is a plastic surgeon. Her mother is shown to have no say of her own. She is left to watch her husband ridicule his daughter about not being careful with her looks. Maria has a friend Lily
