Missing Ingredients: MAMA
As the preview screening of Guillermo del Toro’s horror film Mama, came closer and closer, the more I was tempted to cancel my reservation out of fear. As previously mentioned, I’m too susceptible to supernatural movies. I think it’s because I believe that ANYTHING no matter how far fetched or out of this world, is possible. And this open-mindedness, combined with living alone, can really set my imagination working over-time. But to my relief and disappointment. MAMA isn’t very scary.

I also swear, I’m constantly doing write-ups on what I do see, but then at the end of the year, there’s a whole host of movies I never did a post about, or just a very short commentary on facebook.
