The Crazies: A Slick Horror Movie Remake

A remake to a lesser-known entry in the George A. Romero living-dead oeuvre, “The Crazies”, embraced the same story about a virus which infected residents of an idyllic town who start killing their friends and neighbors. While "The Crazies" isn't a zombie movie per se, it derives much of its horror from the same fear. As a hybrid of the zombie genre, apocalyptic bioterror, and military conspiracy thriller, the film looks to be a moody and atmospheric horror, with at least some anticipation that there's

What he discovers upon reuniting with his estranged father (Anthony Hopkins), yet, is a fortune right darker than his darkest nightmares. As a young boy, the untimely death of his mother made Talbot to grow up before his time. Though Talbot would attempt to bury his hurt in the past by leaving the quiet Victorian village of Blackmoor behind, the past comebacks with a payback when his brother's fiancée, Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt), converts him to return home and aid the search for his losing brother. But something great has been stalking the residents of Blackmoor from the night shadows, something not quite man. Not even recently arrived Scotland Yard inspector Aberline (Hugo Weaving) can dreaming over a logical explanation for the terrible spell that has been cast over Blackmoor, yet rumors of an old curse persist to this very day. Accordant to fable, the afflicted will experience a horrific shift by the light of the full moon, their animal rage getting far excessively strong for their human bodies to contain.

Money Never Sleeps Cause Every Dream Has A Price

The 1987 film “Wall Street” is nicely directed by Oliver Stone and it's a film about playing the stock market game and essentially one of the few cinematic portrayals of Wall Street I could think of.
