Josh Hartnett

According to Empire, Hollywood celebrity Josh Hartnett has reportedly agreed to play the role of a small-town Alaskan sheriff in the upcoming vampire thriller ‘30 Days Of Night’. The movie which is based on Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith’s graphic novel classic, will be directed David Slade, who was behind the camera for thriller ‘Hard Candy’, while the script was taken care by Stuart Beattie and Brian Nelson.

I’m really looking forward to see the movie which shooting will began in New Zealand in August. “30 Days of Night” story is set in Barrow, Alaska, U.S., where is night for more than 30 days during the winter. The terror comes from an evil force and Josh Hartnett and his wife will have to choose between saving themselves or helping the town survive until the sun returns.

Movie review: Final Destination 3

Final Destination 3

Have you seen this film series? Because if you did you should know what to expect from Final Destination 3. The movie has the same direction as a premonition appears from the beginning of the film at pre-graduation party at an Amusement Park where Yearbook photographer Wendy (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) has a premonition that the coaster is going to crash.

The action begins as Wendy lost her boyfriend in the “accident,” Wendy eventually teams up with Kevin (Ryan Merriman), who lost his girlfriend. As it was expected Kevin has discovered an article on the Internet about a similar incident six years ago, a plane crash in which several people exited the plane before takeoff, but then the “Hand of Fate” picked off the survivors in the order in which they would have died had they been on the plane. (from the 1st Final Destination) Eventually, Wendy discovers that the photos she took at the Amusement Park provide clues as to how each person will die. If you work at it really, really hard, you MAY manage to cheat Fate again, and have Death skip over you and go on to the next person, but it’s a temporary cheat, since Death cannot be stopped. I recommend this film those who have seen Final Destination and Final Destination 2, but don’t let kids in the room.
