Rubber (2010)



This is really a strange movie. Not as good as I expected but this was pretty well made & quite an interesting watch with a bit unique & funny beginning where they "clarified" it's a homage to the 'no reason' films. As the film progress it becomes darkly funny at times but the problem comes when it tried to become too smart with the content & develop some satires about the industry in the process. Perhaps I was expecting it to be more cheesy as the film centers around a killer tire with psychokinetic power. Overall, not for everyone but still worth a watch for sure.

The Killer Must Kill Again (1975)



A simple but bit different Giallo treat where a hired psycho-killer is running after for his stolen car which was supposed to be dumped in the river, as it has a dead body in the trunk.

Hereafter (2010)



A very decent moving drama about 3 people living in different countries whose lives become shattered & later connected in a common ground as they had near-death experiences or the loss of a loved one. The tsunami strikes scene in the beginning quite convincingly portrays the horror of the disaster and as I read in the news few days after the very recent devastating earthquake and tsunami in Japan, the film was withdrawn from all theaters there. A spokesperson from the WB studio said the film's terrifying tsunami scenes were 'not appropriate' at this time.
