creepy catfish

I love the movie Catfish. I love the movie Catfish. I love the movie Catfish.
The commercials boast how a critic said, "Catfish is the movie Alfred Hitchcock never directed."
Boy that critic was spot on. It was thrilling, suspenseful, creepy, and tragic.
Here are some tips before going to see the movie (BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY YOU'RE GOING NO MATTER WHAT):
1. Don't watch the trailer.
2. Don't look up the ending.
3. Don't ask me or some other person the plot or ending.
4. Go see the movie knowing absolutely nothing, and you will enjoy it immensely.
I came out of the theater feeling angry, sad, excited, and overall thrilled that I saw this film.
And no, I won't even give you the website. ;)

teaser's terrify

One of the most important things (or the most important thing) for a movie is the trailer. Trailer's make the viewer decide instantly whether they will see the movie or not. It is supposed to give you a glimpse into the movie's purpose and style, but not give away way too much. Here are some examples of BAD movie trailers:
1. The Backup Plan -- You can see the entire plot just from the trailer.
2. Alpha and Omega -- Ditto.
3. Millions of other movies
Here are some examples of GOOD movie trailers:
1. Cloverfield -- Mysterious, engaging, terrifying.
2. Catfish -- Tells you absolutely nothing, but you want to know everything.
3. Where the Wild Things Are -- Used music very well and only gave a glimpse into artistic look of the film.

So what inspired me to write this blog entry? The trailer for Catfish. I can't stop thinking about it.
Gotta check it out chick-a-dees. ;)
