Description

Frankly speaking, The Crazies is like a "Grindhouse" in action, an old school thriller, but filmed with a serious mien, without exaggerated nostalgia for the good old days, when the cinematograph was able to produce the thrills using the simple means. All this we watched millions of times already, this is the task of directing talent here - to impress the audience at the sight of the same in a one million and first time. And if the original version of "The Crazies" was to heavy on political satire and protest against the Vietnam War, a modern remake is already deprived of these options…

As it follows from the footage, four members of the family were hanged on the nearest trees, while fifth one; a little girl has disappeared somewhere and hasn't been found since.

Apollo 18

Apollo 18

2011
Horror & Suspense
For those conspiracy theorists and urban legend enthusiasts perplexed by the question, "Why has the United States never returned to the moon?" Apollo 18 now offers a frighteningly realistic lost-footage answer. [insert dramatic, suspenseful movie music here]."According to "official" space history, moon missions ended with Apollo 17; and, although an eighteenth mission was scheduled, NASA maintains it scrubbed the launch. Apollo 18 alleges the mission actually went off as planned, and the crew of the ill-fated moon-landing encountered alien life among the craters. Supposedly, investigators recently stumbled upon never-before-released NASA video proving the existence of alien life. Shot by the moonwalkers, the "secret" video documents their encounter with the aliens, and you safely may assume the two parties did not exchange recipes for fish tacos. The very well-crafted trailer for Apollo 18 ostensibly shows you the "lost" footage."Produced by Timur Bekmambetov and directed by Gonzalo Lopez-Gallego, Apollo 18 is frequently reminiscent of Ridley Scott's original Alien, but in a good, allusive way, building suspense and genuine terror from intense realism. The voice-over for the trailer says ominously, "What you are about to see is the actual footage which the astronauts captured on that mission. While NASA denies its authenticity, others say it's the real reason we've never gone back to the moon."When you have seen the footage, you too may become a conspiracy theorist or fan of urban legends."
