‘Cause
this is thriller, Thriller night. The genres of movie I like most after ‘action
& suspense’ are ‘horror’ and ‘thriller’ and I am pleased to announce that
2018 is another big year for such movies. *yay-yay*. After a long gap of 15 years, a horror movie
finally made its pace in the list of highest-grossing movies. Well, TBH I
didn’t like IT much, sort of a stupid story *duh* with its sequel on a line.
Not only IT but other movies too succeeded in gaining awards in 2017, included
in it Get Out, Happy Death Day, Annabelle: Creation, Raw, and It Comes at
Night.
Well, let’s see if 2018’s horror
movies will be able to carry on the same phenomenon of 2017. The potential of
the movies and storyline is telling they’ll bang the box office. Here are some
most awaited and must-watch movies of 2018 as this year is considered to be the
year of movies.
Expected to be released on Feb
2nd and inspired by true events. Winchester is a story of a legal heiress of
Winchester Gun Manufacturer, Sarah Winchester (Helen Mirren). After the death
of her husband and daughter, she feels herself being surrounded by strange
spirits. Legend says that those spirits are of people died by the guns of
Winchester Gun Manufacturing company. In order to keep herself away from the
spirits, she has to build a house to keep them in it. The house has hundreds of
room and staircase leading to nowhere. The house is a mean of tourist
attraction and believes to be haunted and cursed. The Spierig brothers have
directed and written the movie. Jason Clarke also appears as Dr. Eric Price.
The sequel of 2008 Strangers,
this is going to be released on 9th March. The movie has the same storyline as
the first movie. Three psychopaths with masking on their face terrorize and
frighten peoples. In this movie, a family is a victim of these three lunatics.
The family is on a road trip when they accidentally take a path which leads
them to a park being weirdly isolated and here come the three maniacs. The
prominent actors are Christina Hendricks, Bailee Madison, and Martin Henderson.
The former director of the first part has been replaced by Johannes Roberts who
is the man behind 2017’s 47 Meters Down.
The movie revolves around a
family living on a farm silently. They remain quiet for all the time. The
mysterious and awkward silence envelops the whole movie. The idea behind
keeping the mouth shut is that if they utter a word, the strange spirit or
threat would attack them and kill them. If the family wants to be safe and
sound, they must not talk and stay quiet. Otherwise, the spirits would hunt
them till death. The first movie of the Paramount pictures to be appeared on
the screens on April 6th with John Krasinski and Emily Blunt as a
leading character in the movie. John himself has directed the movie for the
first time in which he too is starring. The trailer shows that the movie has
got some potential.
The Sci-Fic movie wraps up with
some horror in it is going to be released soon this year on April 20th.
It is a sequel to Cloverfield movies somehow. The title might be changed in
accordance with the Cloverfield but until then the name is God Particle. The story of five astronauts who after the
disappearance of the Earth has been stuck in the space. They come across
horrible discovery and to combat it, the crew must stay rouse and fight against
it. The leading characters are Daniel Brühl, Elizabeth Debicki, Gugu
Mbatha-Raw, Chris O’Dowd, John Ortiz, and David Oyelowo and directed by Julius
Onah. Another Paramount Picture hoping to keep its pace exactly same as the
previous entries of the movie.
Blumhouse
Productions has quickly taken steps to success with their production of the
movies like The Purge, Sinister, Paranormal Activity etc. This year on April 27th,
Truth or Dare is going to be released with a big bang as the trailer predicts.
The movie revolves around a group of teenagers forced to play the supernatural
version of the so-called game Truth or Dare. The game keeps becoming intense
and violent as the movie proceeds. The film is going to be hit one, as all the
Blumhouse movies are always something that we cannot resist ourselves from
watching them. It is the same slasher and thrill movie as the 2017’s Happy
Death Day, from the same production company.
The film looks creepy rather
horror from the trailer. The movie starts when the four girls try to quash the
myth of a small town where they live; a thin, slender, tall, horrifying
character known as Slender man who compels young people to kill others for him,
as the inhabitants of the area believe. The terror strikes more loudly when one
of the girls goes missing. The myth seems to be true when two girls living
somewhere in the US stabs their classmate 19 times as directed by the slender
man. The movie from the studio of Sony Pictures is expected to be released on May
18th.
This is the most-est awaited
movie for me. The fourth prequel of The Purge series. Though the third
installment of the series seemed to be the last one, audience appears to hanker
for it more. This Purge has been set up on the Staten Island and the idea
behind staying on the island on the Purge night, as per James DeMonaco says, is
that people are gaining rewards for participating in the night in shape of
money, which means, nobody is going to leave the island on that night. James is
not a director of this prequel and the saddest part is that Frank Grillo is not
acting in the movie. The film soon hit the theaters with a bang, of course, on July
4th.
The movie is connected with the
Conjuring 2 and is the fifth installment in the Conjuring series. The related
with a tragic death of a young Nun in Romania. The Vatican investigations then
send a priest and novitiate along with people to dig the root cause of her
death. They find themselves in a big trouble and terror when a demonic spirit
surrounds them in a face of the Nun. The film has some potential like the
Annabelle making it worthful on the screens. The movie soon hits the theaters
on July 13th with leading actress Bonnie Aarons.
On August 10th Jason
Statham will be showing his masterful acts in The Meg. The movie is based on
the book by Steve Alten with its mysteriously thrilling power to grab the
audience. From the genre of thriller and mystery and after 47 Meters Down, this
will be a wonderful treat for the people who love thriller and mystery. Jonas
Taylor (Jason Statham) is a Naval Captain who is sent to rescue a crew on a
deep-sea submersible to protect them from the threatening and dangerous megalodon
shark, which is a rare species now, in the Pacific Ocean. The movie becomes all
the way worth-watching when it has leading actor Jason Statham. *wink*
On a Halloween night, when a
seasonal horror theme park is open to let people enjoy the festive, a person
wearing a costume of a killer start killing people in the crowd. The people don’t
suspect the killing and to their imagination, it is all a part of the show and
his actions are supporting his costume and appearance. From the director of Paranormal
Activity: The Ghost Dimension, Gregory Plotkin, the movie soon makes its first
appearance on the screens on October 12th. Though the Paranormal
Activity wasn’t as people expected it to be, hopes and wishes are for this
movie to be a thrilling one and worthy of people’s viewing.
Another slasher movie with the
executive producer John Carpenter and the studio that made Sinister, Paranormal
Activity, and Insidious. Halloween will be banging the screens on October 19th.
The eleventh installment of the Halloween franchise. The movie is plotting the
same storyline as the previous one. In this part, Jamie Lee Curtis is
portraying the character of Laurie Strode. After surviving the initial massacre
and annihilation approx. for forty years, Laurie is again step up to fight with
the serial killer Michael Myers.
This movie will be having a hard
time competing with Halloween. The production companies behind it are Paramount
Pictures and Bad Robot Productions. Another gripping thriller is on its way to
hit the screens on October 26th. The story of a World War II in
which two American Paratroopers land on the Normandy region to carry out their mission
but they soon find out that the Nazis are having something other than the usual
military operation; which is nothing but the supernatural forces. The movie,
though not much horror, but it could be a fun-watching.
The movie, from the studio of
A24, is going to be released sometime in 2018 as the actual date is not
confirmed. The movie has some good cast and crew including Chance the Rapper,
Zazie Beetz, Joe Keery and Paul Scheer. The movie is not something that makes
you a hell of terrified, as per a few clips, but it is a combo of horror and
comedy (if comedy is included, I wouldn’t be the one watching this *duh*). The
story of a pizza boy who gets murdered by a killer and the whole city runs to
find the actual murderer. Sounds boring, but I am sure for some people it will
be a must-watch.
So, get yourself ready as this
year is bringing with itself the biggest terror, horror, and thriller of all
time. Chillax, I am talking about the movies. *ha-ha* Happy thunder filled
movie nights!
