Amber Heard
John carpenter, the master of horror is back.
His last movie was in 2001, Ghost of Mars, and to tell the thuth the flick sucks pretty much.
Carpenter however it is not a director in retirement, that is why I expect from this last work to be something special, because frankly one who directed Halloween and Escape from New York can do better that Ghost of Mars.
The Ward is the story of a blonde (who knows why?!?:) locked in an mental hospital, and it is here that the story begins. The Ward  indeed seems haunted by spirits and evil ghosts.
To be honest this movie reminds me so much of a film that is to exit in these days Sucker Punch, in fact the protagonists of The Ward are mostly women, also they try to escape from psychiatric institution, doctors ara also crazy, etc.
We will see, I hope that Carpenter after 10 years does not disappoint me again. 





John Carpenter , il maestro dell'horror e' ritornato.
Il suo ultimo film risale al 2001, e per dire la verita' ha fatto anche schifo come film, Ghost of Mars. Carpenter comunque non e' un regista sulla via del tramonto, ecco perche' mi aspetto da questo ultimo lavoro che sia qualcosa di speciale, perche' francamente uno che ha diretto Halloween e Escape from New York puo fare di meglio che Ghost on Mars.
The Ward tratta la storia di una (chissa perche') bionda che viene rinchiusa in un manicomio, ed e' proprio qui che comincia la storia. Il manicomio infatti sembra infestato dagli spiriti del male e da fantasmi.
Se devo essere sincero mi ricorda tanto un film che sta per uscire in questi giorni Sucker Punch, infatti le protagoniste di The Ward sono prevalentemente donne, anche loro cercano di scappare dall'istituto psichiatrico, dottori pazzoidi, ecc.
Vedremo, spero' che Carpenter dopo 10 anni non deluda di nuovo.  

John Carpenter
Vrnil se je John Carpenter, mojster horrorja.
Njegov zadnji film je bil leta 2001, in če sem iskren je film precej zanič, Ghost of Mars.
Carpenter pa ni direktor pred upokojitvijo, zato pričakujem od tega zadnjega dela da bo nekaj posebnega, ker odkrito rečeno režiser Halloweena in Pobega iz New Yorka lahko naaredi bistveno boljši film kakor pa Ghost of Mars.
The Ward je zgodba o blondinki (kdo ve, zakaj ?!?:) ki je priprta v psihiatrični kliniki, in tu se zgodba tudi začne, saj se v umobolnici skrivajo zli duhovi.
Če sem iskren ta film me spominja nekoliko na Sucker Punch, filem ki bo izšel v naslednjih dneh.  Večinoma glavne vloge igrajo
ženske ki prav tako poskušajo pobegniti iz psihiatrične bolnišnice, itd.
Videli bomo, upam, da Carpenter po 10
letih me ne bo spet
razočaral.

Priest: Feature Trailer

Priest 2011
Priest, a post-apocalyptic sci fi thriller, is set in an alternate world -- one ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires. The story revolves around a legendary Warrior Priest (Paul Bettany) from the last Vampire War who now lives in obscurity among the other downtrodden human inhabitants in walled-in dystopian cities ruled by the Church. When his niece (Lily Collins) is abducted by a murderous pack of vampires, Priest breaks his sacred vows to venture out on an obsessive quest to find her before they turn her into one of them. He is joined on his crusade by his niece’s boyfriend (Cam Gigandet), a trigger-fingered young wasteland sheriff, and a former Warrior Priestess (Maggie Q) who possesses otherworldly fighting skills.
