2008 Horror Movies

I am first going to talk about some 2008 horror movies starting with One Missed Call! Rating:R
(Warning! These contain spoilers)
So everyone has been saying that this movie is really creepy, and I believe them! I didn't see the movie personally bu with a title like that, that movies gotta be pretty scary!
It seems like the preview gives away too much because you see the guy with the creepy face holding the cellphone. I'm not talking about the cover, I mean in the middle of the preview when you see the guy with the purple face. It's pretty obvious that he's the one behind everything.
The movie didn't look too bad to me, but I looked on rottentomatoes.com and the top critics gave it 0% good reviews. It seems like more kids liked it than adults.

Next we have Untraceable! Rating:R

I know know body at all who saw this movie at all! I'm not sure if it was that popular. When I saw the very first part of the trailer I thought this movie was gonna be like Bones. Boy I was wrong. And I was absolutely sure of that when I saw the end of the preview when the hooded guy just appears in the back seat of that FBI lady's car! Although it did kick One Missed Call's a*s, it also did very poorly getting less than two stars and under 20% good reviews.
Sadly, one of the best reviews it got was, "It was a very enjoyable movie-for those who don't like plots.

Third, we have one of my personal favorites: The Strangers. Rating:R



I did personally see this movie, and I can tell you that there were people screaming in that theater, I just shielded my eyes sometimes. The scariest part of that movie was when Kristen opened the blind and the guy was looking right at her. The first preview I saw for this movie was actually the 2007 preview, (because that was when it was supposed to come out, and you can't really tell what the movie is about in that, but I was very drawn to it so I went to IMDB.com and saw the 2008 preview and it was freaky! There is a link to it below.
The top critics gave The Strangers 50% good reviews and it did very well in the box office. And the best part is...I heard they're making a sequel! The masked villains will return!







Next is Quarantine! Rating:R



So Quarantine is so most to seem like the movie was filmed by the cameraman filming the reporter, Angela Bydel. They have to go into the building with the infected people who bite! And then when they are inside the police quarantine the building! Now they are trapped in the dark with the biting people. The tagline for this movie is, "On March 11, 2008, the government sealed off an apartment complex in Los Angeles. The residents were never seen again. No details. No witnesses. No evidence. Until now." The tagline kind of gives away that no one escaped and that the evidence was on the videotapes, but it still looks like a fun movie, and to prove my point I can tell you that the top critics on rottentomatoes.com gave this movie 70% good reviews.



Our last 2008 horror will be Saw 5! Rating:R



This movie has not quite come out yet, so I can't tell you the reviews, but let me predict them: bad. The saw movies have been getting worse and worse. I haven't seen them personally but I've seen reviews. I admit that Jigsaw's mask is pretty creepy (and what's with him dying in saw 3) but even if this movie does do great in the box office, it will probably be remembered as a bad movie.
I really don't get the preview where you see some guy's face and then he starts screaming.

So these are just five of the many horror movies made in 2008. In the future I will have different movies of different genres from different years. I would also like to add that if you have any questions about movies you can right them in the comments section. Hope you like my blog!
