February 29

Original title: 2 월 29 일 - 어느날 갑자기 첫번째 이야기 (2 Wol 29 Il - Eo-neun- nal Kab-ja-gi-Cheot jjae Beon-I-ya-gi)
Country: South Korea
Year: 2006
Director: Jeong Jong-hoon


A strange movie that fits all 'inside of a set composed of three chapters each independent 4 Horror Tales .

Ji-yeon worked as a linesman at a highway exit anonymous like many others, spends time in the small office that serves as home every night watching TV, chatting with her friend Jong-sook, and living a decent life after all. All goes well until one night stands before a mysterious black car from which a hand covered with blood-stained hands her a red card.
From now follow an escalation of nightmares and murders, that Ji-yeon will take the edge of madness until the final confinement in a psychiatric hospital, from where reality begins and ends in the whole affair.
thread running through the entire film is doubt: doubt among which is that success and that is cioò imagined, between what is true and what is false, between story and delusional reality. Symptomatic dialogue Final "Well, now you know the truth is you take out a story" [...] but if reality seems to believe, I do not know what to believe. "

A film that does not shine for some originality or imagination, but not too obvious. Despite the inevitable moments of suspense, blood, and (attempted) terror, February 29 shows, however, some research in depth. Why is not fair to condemn him completely, especially when compared with the other chapters of the collection, which have little unusual.

Register quiet, unpretentious, mostra comunque un certo gusto per il gioco cromatico e l'inganno psicologico. Pochi attori in grado di caratterizzare discretamente personaggi purtroppo stereotipati, riescono ad ogni modo ad elevare il livello della pellicola da mediocre a passabile.
Carino.

White Lady

Titolo originale: White Lady
Paese: Filippine
Anno: 2006
Regia: Jeff Tan



Pearl si iscrive al college insieme all'amico di infanzia e si trasferisce in un campus dall'aria a little hippie in a city not well defined, not well defined on an island in the Philippines. And 'poor, comes from a small island lost and, moreover, is part of an "ethnic" unpopular in the big city. Good and sincere, is under fire from the classic group of school bullies (in this case a bit trendy little girls' asunder and dimwitted) but then end up being the girlfriend of handsome classic situation (with the consequent despair of frustrated poor friend).

Since nothing original here. Even the appearance of the ghost of the round, the same old white woman with long hair blacks, does that add to the already obvious obvious hackneyed script. Of course everything will be resolved in escalation of surprises and discoveries worthy of the best soap opera made in the USA, to the equally obvious happy ending.

Register of communion that is the home video of my cousin, who was probably Precambrian era, populated by actors and expressive as a corpse at a funeral, White Lady is indeed a jewel in Philippine horror scene, which in fact is almost non-existent .
Interestingly, however, the environment, particularly with regard to the mansion that seems to inhabit a mysterious Christina (no, the Casa Cristina , as bad movies, has nothing to do, unfortunately) that brings to mind the old houses of colonial New Orleans and surrounding areas. Funny for us Westerners also populated with the original audio in English phrases mixed with local tongue in a sort of minestrone language at times hilarious.

A film to be seen to laugh with friends, if you own all the bars in the area are closed and the dog has already made the evening stroll.
