A lady who wanted so much to buy a property which she can't afford starts killing the tenants to bring down the property's value. Read more about it here.

My take:

I LOVE THIS MOVIE! The plot is simple and straight forward. The visual is very graphics. We can see how Josie goes around 2 units (neighbors of the unit she wanted to buy) killing the tenants. There is a total of 11+1 people killed in that night alone. All in details! Once a while there is a flashback of her background on how she survive poverty to be barely afford a home of her own but the price keeps on appreciating.

My take:

Wow this movie is a boomz! But I maybe bias because I love Quentin Tarantino's movies. As usual, QT's movies are loaded with dialogs and this is the same. It makes you want to know what they are talking about and how the story goes. The story line is interesting with the nazi characters you love to hate. And the climax ending is awesome.

If this happens in real world:

I wanna join the basterds! ra! ra! ra!

Food to go along with this: Pork knuckles! yummy!

The story basically goes like this:

That very night he was visited by 3 ghosts. The ghost of the christmas past shows him about his own history and how he ended up being an ass. Then the ghost of christmas present shows him the present, on how his nephew make fun of him in his absence and how his underpaid staff struggle because of his stinginess.

My take:

I never read this story before. And I like the story. The animation is superb. Looks like real people. But the most important thing is, the message of the movie. On how the environment shaped a person's behavior, then the consequences of his action towards people around him and how people react and think of him when he is not around anymore. Do you want to be someone who cause much trouble for everyone and no one remembers you or talk bad about you when you are dead?

If this happens in real world:

If the ghost of the past visits me, most probably he will shows me the junk i ate in the afternoon. Then the ghost of present will show me on the throne, curling my toes with tears on my eyes lausai-ing. Then the ghost of the future will show where the sai flows to and how the Alam Flora people treat the sewage...

Food to go along with this: Turkey ham sandwich and Starbuck's Toffee Nut Latte..

I rate this movie 4/5 buttered popcorns.

So, try to enjoy the movies!
