alone

well.. this has two meanings.. as most people know, i'm home alone once again.. third time this year.. lol.. parents are somewhere on a bintan/batam (dunno which one) resort relaxing with my relatives while i'm stuck in singapore muggin till my brains rot.. i believe that's the case for most people with the increasing number of mini-tests that need us to mug for each and every one of themif not we'll feel like totally screwed if you know wad i mean.. prelims are in like 2/3 weeks time and stress is juz slowly but surely piling up.. sigh..

other meaning... this afternoon, watched 'alone' with wu lei and its this thai horror film that has the same producers as 'shutter', this other horror movie AND both are GOOD!! anyway back to 'alone', its a reasonable horror movie with a seamless plot. Never expected the twist that followed as the movie went on, though the horror parts were mostly predictable... the usual coming out of the mirror, alone in the lift, turning in bed when u hear a noise behind you scenes. MANY minor details that can be remembered now make sense after the movie like a puzzle, you slowly gather the pieces and finally see the whole picture after everything is laid out.. its difficult to express in words how the whole movie just fit together nicely. only after re-thinking bout the movie do you realise that the director actually made subtle hints bout the impending twist. Overall, very good movie =)

Think this is my 6th(or more) movie of the year.. with The Bourne Ultimatum and Ratatouille coming up, they'll juz add on to my list.. haha
