The original Alien tag line read: “In space no one can hear you scream.”
AVP:R’s tag line reads: “In space no one can hear you scream. On Earth everyone will.”

I miss the snow
the bare branches of naked trees

I miss the snow
the loneliness in the cold

Rating: 8 / 10 (Full review at silverscreen.thinkbrunei.com)

Will Smith managed to make this work, like Tom Hanks in Cast Away. Just substitute Wilson with a German Shepherd, rocks and clubs with a rifle, and coconut shells with mannequins. But other than that, another vampire-zombie fest with a few cheap scares, boasting a storyline that claims a cancer-cure becoming a virus, turning living creatures [...]

Even worse was our emergency water tank has been, unbeknownst to us, faulty, so literally two whole days without water except for one water tap outside the house [...]
