I honestly LOVE dogs with all my heart, so getting myself to watch this movie was not easy. I've watched plenty of sad movies about dogs, and I always cry, but this one impacted me the most. And I believe the only reason for it, is that this story is not made-up and not made from an existing book (that was also made-up). It actually happened in real life, long time ago. THAT is what kills me. I'm not exaggerating when I say I was depressed for literally 2 months after watching it. No movie has ever done that to me, and no movie ever will. You know that feeling when you experience something specific, and you just KNOW that nothing like that will ever happen again? Well, that's how I feel about this movie. This one is THE ONE. The one that no other movie can ever replace in shed tears and emotions I went through watching it.
Girls, guys - no matter how tough you think you are - you WILL cry watching this movie. If you don't...well...just means you have no emotions whatsoever.
Anyway, 10/10 from me, even though it killed me a little.

Wrong Turn 5: Bloodlines
(2012 Video)
As the movies pile up, ratings go down
25 September 2020
And with a good reason. I mean, it's not even a "horror movie" anymore. It's just blood and gore and nothing more, basically. Horror movies are meant to scare you in some way, catch you by surprise in certain moments, but this is all just so predictable. All you can look forward is a way those three guys are going to kill someone. They're creative, I'll give them that.
But it's not about killing to eat anymore for them. In first two movies, I could kind of understand them. They live far into the woods, cut out of any civilization, all the animals are dead, and humans that stray are their only source of food. Now they just kill them in the most sadistic ways, and for a pure pleasure - not food. Like a slasher movie of some sort.
I'm giving it 4 stars, only because of sadistic creativity. Movie as a whole, would have 1 star.

Ok, so, let's take a moment to realize that someone had this idea in their head. Since all the movies come as ideas, so has this one. Some person literally thought about this entire concept. And others agreed with that person. That's pretty much all I have to say about this movie.
Oh, yeah, and the fact that Johnny Depp was probably broke as fork, since he accepted this role. Yep, now I'm done.

Christiane F.
(1981)
Masterpiece!
14 September 2020
Well, let me start of with the fact that the book by the same title helped me a lot. I was not a drug user, nor have I became one ever, simply because of the book. My mom put that book in my hands when I was 12, and just told me: "Read it". She never questioned me anything in the 2 days I was reading, nor she mentioned it.
When I let her know I was done, and wanted to talk about it, she said: "Now you have to see a movie". So there I was, 12 year old who just read something that messed with her head, watching the movie with the exact story. Mom said it was important to actually see it, not only visualize it. After the movie she said: "No matter how many times and how many people tell you drugs are bad - it will not be enough. So I wanted you to see a story of a real person, who went through real problems with drugs. Does this show you that drugs are actually bad?"
Everything I ever wanted to talk to her about, just vanished. Because that movie just sealed the deal. I bought what actors were selling. Only thing on my mind was - if the book showed me with details what can happen, and the movie pictured it for me - how was it to actually battle all those things (addiction, constant thinking about next fix, crises when the drug is leaving your system...) in real life? And luckily, both the book and the movie convinced me never to put it to the test. Not even with pot, cigarettes or alcohol. I've been offered drugs many times by the time I was 20. I never once accepted, no matter how those people described it to me. Because I knew what the reality was and where it was leading to.
So, thanks to my mom, for introducing me this story. Thanks to the actors and directors and writers. Because of all of you, now I'm a 32 year old woman, who can honestly say she never tried any kind of drugs, nor was ever interested to "test the story". Words in a book and acting in movie were proof enough.
And special thanks to Christiane F. Many went through the same thing you did, but were too ashamed and embarrassed to come forward with it. You went through it and you shared your story. And I'm pretty sure you changed a lot of lives over the years. And you will keep doing that. Because, this book and movie are eternal, and will never go "out of style".

Annabelle Comes Home
(2019)
There's only so much you can do with a movie about a doll
9 August 2020
So, the thing is - movie is not bad. It actually held my attention from the start till the end. First Annabelle movie was a little dull, and second was simply OK. This one is GOOD. It's more like a teenage horror movie, but it has a decent story. It freaked me out more than 2nd one. Personally, I'm terrified of things like ghosts, etc (things I can't see with my own eyes), so random objects falling and making a noise when there were like 2 minutes of dead silence, actually works for me. Makes me jump. This movie also made me think ahead, unlike first 2 parts. It's a good movie to watch before sleep (unless you're a kid that's frightened of movies). Even tho jump scares did scare me, I fell asleep like a baby after a movie. It makes your mind a little tired from scares and thinking ahead, but as soon as it's over - you forget about it. Actually, the only thing that gave me actual chills, was in post-movie credits, when they said that real Lorraine Warren died. But hey, she died in 92. She's lived a full and interesting life, so that kind of gives me some comfort.
Anyway, I believe there will be no more Annabelle movies. Cause the real doll is in the same place now where it's been since than - in the glass box. And as far as I know, there hasn't been any more stories about her after that. She's just locked, and that's all there is to it.
Incredible!

I honestly thought this season is gonna be like a "slasher movie" all the way to the end. Somehow, it was. But it gives you so much more than a simple slasher movie. It gives you family, love, hate, rage, jealousy...it gives you life. Forget about "final girl". They are all "final", they are all "the last". Just incredible performance from ALL the actors. I thought Sarah Paulson's and Evan Peters's absence will be noticeable, but it actually wasn't.
Seriosuly, amazing cast, amazing acting and amazing writing. Story is told from beginning to the end. No unsolved things. Clear as a day. This last episode was hart-melting. I was watching this alone, but cheered and yelled like I was with a group of people.
P.S. I waited until last episode was released, and than I watched all of them. Jesus, these 9 episodes went faster than a fat kid towards an ice cream! It just felst like one long movie, but time flew by. I just couldn't stop watching. 10/10 from me. XOXO

(II) (2019)
I don't know why people say they don't understand this movie
12 November 2019
It's not the best movie in the world, but hey...it's not bad. It keeps you interested until the end. Plus, if you watch it carefully - it's all pretty much explained. I've noticed that people who leave reviews try to find explanation for the ending. The ending itself might not be so clear, but the story itself is explained throughout the movie. It's fun, it's scary, it keep you tied up to your seat...that's all that horror movie should do. If you watched it and don't understand it - watch it again, but this time carefully. Don't miss anything, and it will be clear why it is and how it is.
Funny thing is that I watched this movie for the first time yesterday (unaware of the storyline whatsoever), on 11/11. If you watched the movie, you will know why that is a funny thing. If you didn't, you will find out. :)
Peace out. XOXO

A Dog's Purpose
(2017)
Countless emotions!
1 July 2019
Ok, so I'll start this with a fact that I LOVE dogs! With that said - this movie delivered on all the fields. There's not a single moment of this movie where you don't feel a certain emotion. I mean, I personally went through all possible human emotions watching this.
The movie "Hachi: a dog's tale", literally made me depressed for 2 months. This movie, on the other hand, made me depressed for only 15 minutes. Endings are the ones who leave you with certain feeling. Compare the ending of Hachi and "A dog's purpose", and you will know what I'm talking about.
Now, I would just like to say to all those who think that any of these dogs were in ANY danger, treated wrongly or were made to do things against their will - you are WRONG! People making the movie, were more concentrated on safety of dogs, than of humans. Even the actors were making more attention that the dogs are comfortable in any sort of situations, than themselves. Anytime a dog was showing that he's scared or uncomfortable, they would stop everything and wait until the dog is ready to interact with humans. Therefore, I send all my love and support to every member or cast and crew.
And last, but not least - all of you guys, keep loving dogs. They are living breathing creatures like all of us, they feel everything we feel, and let's be honest - dog's have more empathy than some humans do! And that's pure truth.
Enjoy this movie everyone. XOXO

The Haunting of Hill House
(2018)
Horor in it's TRUE form!
3 February 2019
So, my friend told me that I NEED to watch this show named "The haunting of Hill house". I looked it up on google, liked it, decided to give it a try, and started watching 1st episode. Than 2nd, than 3rd...than the last one. Oh my goodness me! I could NOT stop watching it!
Cast was awesome, trasitions from 1992 to present time were AMAZING... This really is a horror in it's true form. No blood and gore, no useless jump scares... Jump scares that happen here, are always for a reason, and always at the appropriate time. It's not meant just to scare you for the sake of getting scared. It tells you a complete story. If you don't get it right from the start - don't worry. I didn't either. First episode was a bit confusing for me, but in episode 2, it's much more clearer. And from that point on, you are hooked on the show, and you end up sitting in front of TV till 4 in the morning, 'cause Hill house is much more important than sleep! :D Anyways, 10/10 from me. INCREDIBLE!

For everyone wondering about Michael...
1 February 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Ok, let's start with this - best episode ever! I mean...come on man! Return of Angela as Marie, literally EVERYONE except Myrthle dies, Cordelia sacrifices herself yet again so another supreme can rise? There is NOTHING that woman wouldn't do for the coven, even die. And that deserves RESPECT! I cried so much watching that. Perfect episode!
And to everyone wondering how it was easy for Mallory to kill Michael with a car...guys, at that moment, his powers haven't evolved. The more powers he got, he became less and less human (something like Voldemort with horcruxes, I guess). Anyway, in 2015 he was just a random boy who liked to kill living creatures. And he himself was a living creature who COULD die from ANYTHING, just as any human being can.
As for reborn of another Antichrist...let's hope in further seasons witches will find out about him as well, and take care of it. Because...let's face it, even if people from that satanic cult will try to save him, NO ONE can beat the Supreme!
Btw, let's not forget Jessica Lange's sentence: "Go to hell". EPIC! And just a reminder...in episode 6 (Return to murder house), Constance was a ghost. And now with Michael dead...she did not had the reason to kill herself, so she is ALIVE!

American Horror Story
(2011– )
Incredible! Just...incredible!
30 January 2019
I heard about this show a while ago, but only started watching it in 2019. I finished all 8 seasons in a matter of 2 weeks. THAT how good it was. I was not able to stop watching it. I actually did not know what to expect. I haven't read anything about the show, and no one was telling me anything, so I just entered in the story completely "blind". Let's review all 8 seasons, shall we?
Season 1 (Murder house) - Excellent season, it gets you hooked since the start. It takes you awhile to understand what is actually happening (or at least it took ME awhile), but everything is explained pretty well later on. 7/10
Season 2 (Asylum) - Really dark season, almost entirely filmed in one place (asylum), but doesn't lack intensity, horror, anticipation and greatness! Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters are rocking yet again! 9/10
Season 3 (Coven) - Amazing season. We see some new caracters, and of course a lot of old ones. Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett and Emma Roberts were EPIC! One of my favorite seasons! 10/10
Season 4 (Freak show) - I honestly thought I might just skip this season, 'cause circus was never entertaining for me. But I decided to give it a chance. And I never regreted it! So incredible! Finn Wittrock playing the role of Dandy was super convincing. I mean, I was buying what he was selling! Amazing acting. Jessica Lange shows what star she really is. Only sad thing about this season, was knowing that Jessica will not be returning to other seasons. 9/10
Season 5 (Hotel) - Most hated season by many people, but my personal favorite! Lady Gaga was sooo awesome. And I love the fact that vampires are not described as classic ones we've all heard about. Like Lady Gaga said - "You can live forever, but only if you are smart" (meaning that they may be vampires, but their bodies are still human, and can easily get hurt). Dennis O'Hare was actually hilarious and so incredible. Evan Peters as a bad guy - perfection! 10/10
Season 6 (Roanoke) - Ok, so this one was a bit confusing in the beginning, but not at all bad. It was pretty cool, once you understood what is actually going on. And it was most definitely not predictable. Seriously, you don't know what will happen, until it happens. Still, not one of my favs. 6/10
Season 7 (Cult) - The moment I saw this will be political season, I thought to give it quits after first few minutes. But than I reminded myself - this is AHS, so the season WILL turn out to be good. And of course - I was right. Evan peters again playing bad guy, and his true talent as an actor shows up. I mean, that guy can play ANY role you throw at him! As well as Sarah Paulson. Great season! 8/10
Season 8 (Apocalypse) - Mixing Murder house, Coven, end of the world and Antichrist - guys, I was literally BLOWN AWAY! Episode 10 (and the last one so far)...I laughed, cheered, screamed, cried, laughed again...OH MY GOD! I kind of predicted the ending itself (you will too, trust me), but that is only like 2 minutes before the actual end of season. Seeing Sarah Paulson's caracter from coven (Cordelia) continuing sacrificing herself for the coven...brought tears to my eyes.
Best season so far! 15/10!
So there you go. I really hope this review will help you in some way. I can not wait for season 9 and 10. And I hope they will make 10 more seasons after that!
XOXO, peace out.
The Good Place

Motherforking shirtballs!
27 April 2018
I can honestly say I became addicted to this show from the moment I saw trailer on youtube. Than I watched the first episode and I was like: "Heck, yes!"
It's something completely different than most of us are used to watching. Ending of season one was AMAZING! I mean, honestly, I LOVE twists and it's been a long time since I've seen any twist that was this good. I started asking myself - what can they possibly do in season 2? Isn't this IT? But than, season 2 started, and once again, I was blown away. Cast is awesome, dialogues are great, writing amazing, and entire story is just perfect.
Kristen Bell proved us once more that every movie or TV show she is in, is worth watching.
10/10 guys. And I can not wait for season 3 to come out!
Under the Dome
(2013–2015)
This show is awesome!
22 February 2018
I have no idea why rates are so low. Almost every person who rated it gave it 1/10. Like...what? Movies and TV shows that actually ARE garbage (we all know at least one of those) are rated at least 3/10.
Giving it 1/10 is not just disrespectful to actors and directors who made this so y'all could watch, but also to Stephen King. I mean, some of you commented after the FIRST EPISODE, and wrote it was garbage. What the...? At least give the show a chance before you judge it!
I personally LOVED the show. Well, not the third season as much as first two, but still...loved it. Loved characters, story, the way it was shown... You can see how "friendly little town" acts when there's a chaos. Also, you can see how some characters change, made into completely different persons, which is a real deal. We all change under certain circumstances. Some to worse, some to better.
I watched this show 3 times so far, and it will always have a place between other shows I love and rewatch from time to time. Peace out.

Jigsaw
(I) (2017)
Well dang it!!!
18 January 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Why, oh WHY would you ruin a perfectly constructed 7 movies that completed a full circle in the end, by adding one more movie 7 years later?! WHY?!
We SAW it all. Background of every character, every trap and reasons behind it. Some of us were somehow attached to all those people (John, Jill, detective Hoffman, Amanda...even Lawrence Gordon). Hell, I was even attached to Adam! Anyhow, you give us a new movie, and you put into it an entirely new cast. We can only see John in couple of scenes, but that's it.
I must say - when I saw John taking off his mask, I went nuts. My thoughts were: "Oh come on! Seriously?! How the hell are you even alive? What kind of sorcery is this? Jeff slit your throat, they literally pulled out your brain in the morgue, and you are just standing here alive and well?! And why these two people are not surprised to see you?"
They showed us in the end that game being played took it's part 10 years ago, when John was alive. By one part I was relived, because they haven't brought Jigsaw back to life, and by other part I was disappointed, because they introduced us to yet another apprentice. This guy have NEVER been mentioned before. It wasn't mentioned, in all 7 movies, even the "thing" he did (mixing up x-rays).
I wasn't happy when I heard another movie is coming out (because, as I said before, we reached full circle with 7 movies), and I'm not happy after watching it. Whoever made it, just know this - you might just ruined an entire Saw franchise with this one. It was clearly a "moneygrab" movie.
Anyhow, please, PLEASE do not make another one! Just let Jigsaw rest in peace!
Voldemort: Origins of the Heir
(2018 Video)
Really disappointing
16 January 2018
Ok, we all know it's a fan-made movie with low budget. We all understand that. But, there is really no excuse for bad acting and bad story. If we try to put acting part aside, we are left with story that just doesn't make sense. Some of us could of done better screenplay in our sleep. Especially loyal HP fans.
I don't understand what Soviet Aurors have to do with Tom Riddle or his belongings. If fans that made this movie wanted to tell the story of Voldemorts origin - than they at least should of stick to he original story. The only good thing here is Tom Riddles looks (as he was described as very handsome young man in the books). But no matter how good the actor looks - he still didn't deliver the "Voldemort" effect, even when he became him.
Advice - try to watch this movie (or short film, you choose how to call it) as something completely unrelated to HP world. It will help.
