Preview screening of Fright Night

Thanks Sweetie for inviting me to join the Nuffnang bloggers' gathering @ The Cathay for the preview screening of 'Fright Night'...

'Fright Night' is a 3D comedy horror vampire film. It is a remake of the 1985 film of the same name. Reviews on the internet has generally been positive, so I went into the movie with high expectations.

--- Posters of Fright Night---


Teenager Charlie Brewster (played by Anton Yelchin) takes notice of the strange disappearances of his friends eversince the arrival of his new neighbour - Jerry (starring Colin Farrell). Upon closer inspection, he soon discovers that the new neighbour has a blood-thirsty habit. Trying to convince everybody around him, the pure and evil battle soon begins.

The remake starts out well, all thanks to Farrell's acting skills, as he brings out a sense of menace and cocky masculinity to his role. However, the film loses the irony elements of the saving grace of the original. The casts apart from Colin Farrell have no chemistry and they deliver their lines flatly.

2.5/5

This remake - 'Fright Night 2011' is proves to a disappointment, as there are only a few chills and thrills and they are not remotely scary. A pretty bad frightfully movie-going experience, but at least this film handles well by entertaining the movie-goers with some laughs.

The premiere date is on the 22 September 2011.

What I love about the  KUNDAL HONEY & MACADAMIA  range is  that they use honey and macadamia extracts as their main ingredients. They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder.

Thanks for introducing COCOnCO from Korea which has helped me to achieve pleasant results from my beauty regime.   COCOnCO First Essence Toner  is a fermented facial essence, and it soothes wrinkles, tones, moisturizes and nourishes the skin, enhances blood circulation and metabolic processes at the cellular level, evens out complexion, brightens the skin, reduces the secretion of sebaceous glands and fights rashes. If you have pale, tired skin with sagging and fine lines, these can be miraculously transformed with regular use of the essence! It is suggested to be used as the first step in daily skin care. Apply it to cleansed skin first before applying the lotion, emulsion/serum and cream.  It is recommended for the product to be used twice a day - Once in the morning, and once in the evening.
