outing with YS, YJ, DLY and W for bowling and movie..

my bowling's bad..so i shan't not talk about it..haha..

hmm..watched "30 days of Night" in Vivo..hmm..it's an adaptation of the "30 Days of Night" novel...

"30 Days of Night" synopsis:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/30_Days_of_Night_%28film%29

lots of gruesome scenes, with all the background torturous screeching screams of the vampires and the victims...and DLY's soooooo scaredd.....WHAHAHAHAH..

hmm..basically, i can't say it's a good show..

probably the director's trying hard to protray a group of contemporary vampires.
These vampires are civilised - their dress code is office wear..casual office wear...and i start to wonder if they do set up a "Civilised Undead Pte Ltd" company..

and the dialogues are ..... so (-_-)

the story transition is bad - especially for its ending when the vampires suddenly disappeared from nowhere.

the movie's concept of vampires has much originality. Chopping off their heads, sucking people's blood in the same way, unusual great physical strength, speaking of some unknown ancient language which i am wondering whether it is the language of Transylvanian. Movie ends with the pair of lovers (one's human and the other's a vampire).

if you all wanna know more about Bram Stoker's "Dracula" novel and the movie, you could go here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dracula (this is the novel)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bram_Stoker%27s_Dracula (and this's the movie)

The history of Dracula is pretty interesting. Highly recommend. and you'll come across this famous vampire-hunter - Van Helsing.

haa.basically, i got to study a little about Bram Stoker's "Dracula" novel for one of General Electives literature modules..so probably that's why i find the movie pretty dull.

ok, so if you wanna watch a movie with substance, you are looking for strong concept-based movie,
I give this movie 3/10. (cos I can't bear to demoralise the director more, otherwise i'll give it a 0/10.)

And if you wanna to watch a movie with the girl whom you like and wanna her to subconsciously stay super close to you,
I give this movie 8/10. =D

But if you juz wanna squander that 9.50 bucks,
I give this movie 10/10...!!!

=DD
