Me Movies More

 I discussed the best French horror films I have watched a few weeks back. Today, I was thinking about a few more horror films that are not made in Hollywood. The ones that come to my mind after those French films are some of the British horror films that I had a chance to watch. Some of these films are quite popular and almost cult classics.  1. 28 Days Later: This falls under the cult-classic category of horror films ever made. 28 Days Later was an absolutely fresh concept when it was released. The degradation of humans in times of crisis and actually revealing what kind of low individuals can stoop to is shown in the film under the terrifying Zombification. This concept was adopted in many Hollywood films afterwards, but nothing matched it. Cillian Murphy shines as the main protagonist with a powerful supporting cast. The sequel, 28 Weeks Later, was a good movie on its own, too. However, the impact of the prequel is too overwhelming for the sequel to be weighed on the same radar. 

Hello, yes you, are you listening? Why are your eyes so glistening? Is that glee, or are you hiding your tears? Come on, you can tell me, no fears. Are you tired, are you waiting for somebody? Look around; there is nobody. Get up and delve inside you, It's only you, waiting for you. The world is cruel but still beautiful It's up to you if you make the rule. Look at life, live every moment, Quench your thirst, and drink it to the fullest. This post was created for the  Blogaberry Creative (Monthly) Challenge.

The budget of Bengali films is often quite challenging. So makers generally stick to stories of common people where the set-up can be done within a meagre budget. That is why we have not seen many adventure films in the Bengali film industry. However, in recent years, the trend has changed, and nowadays, filmmakers are taking risks in exploring new locations and, if not, the help of special effects to create such locations and scenes, which is equally expensive. Here are a few adventure films that have been made recently and have won the hearts of cine-goers.  1. Kakababu Series: One of the major reasons that our childhood Durga Puja vacation was special was because of the yearly Pujabarshiki magazines. The adventures of Kakababu by Sunil Gangopadhyay were among the most interesting tales in those magazines, and as a child, I used to wait every year for his new adventure. Director Srijit Mukherjee has brought nostalgia to today's generation with his Kakababu film series. Prosenjit

There was a time when I used to watch whatever horror films came my way. I have crossed that age of going for cheap thrills in the name of horror. The moment Hollywood started almost ruining the horror genre by making and remaking boring, slasher stuff,  I started watching some foreign-language films. I have watched a few Korean movies, a few Spanish, and a few East European ones, but the ones that really freaked me out are the French horror films. Here are 5 absolutely terrifying French horror films: 1. Raw: This 2016 film is absolutely crazy. It starts with a monotonous note, and all you get is a glimpse of the life of a new veterinary medicine student who gets introduced to a group. But then, when slowly the insane plot unfolds, the viewer will try to run out of the theatre. The movie is filled with gore and blood. The shocking turn of events happens when a vegetarian student slowly gets addicted to raw flesh.  2. Martyrs: This 2008 film is perhaps the first French horror film I ha

Very few films deal with teenage and the issues of the growing up years. There are a few Bengali films that are based on growing up years of the youth very sensitively and beautifully. Here are 5 such movies to watch: 1. Open Tee Bioscope: This 2015 film is one of the best Bengali Coming-of-age drama that tells the story of a young boy who gets expelled from school and comes to North Kolkata where he gets mingled with other boys of his age. Friendship, rivalry, first-love and sports-the film sew up all the aspects of the young generation so beautifully. The typical North Kolkata daily life has been projected with mastery by director Anindya Chatterji. One cannot miss the melodious songs, " Bondhu chol." and " Pagla Khabi ki". 2. Generation Ami : A teenager overburdened by his father's pressure over studies gets a sigh of relief when his elder cousin, who is a recovering drug-addict  comes to stay with them. Rwitobroto and Sauraseni make an adorable cousin duo in

Often old age is characterised by sickness, weakness and dependency. In Bengali movies too, we have mostly seen the same.  However, there are a few Bengali Films that have successfully shown that age is just a number and we can make the impossible possible at any age, if we have the heart to do so.  Here are the Top 5 Bengali Films that deal with Old age with much positivity. 1. Shukno Lanka: The film is loosely based on a real incident in the Bengali film industry. An aging junior artist who aims to get just one chance to prove his acting talent, finally gets justice when a renowned filmmaker chooses him as the lead actor for his ambitious project. The film revolves around that actor's shooting life and personal life throughout the film's making. Mithun Chakraborty is just phenomenal in the movie. Every scene he is in, is ruled by his expressive performance. The cute little moments of his celebrations with his wife on the tonga is so enjoyable and heartwarming.  2. Posto : A r
