  I was quite impressed with this zombie film when I came across it on Netflix, especially since it's a film from the Philippines featuring my favorite actor, Sid Lucero. I remember he was chosen by Lav Diaz, my favorite Filipino director, to play a psychopathic character in Norte, the End of History , a film based on my hometown in the Philippines. The story is very unique, with some memorable scenes, strong drama, dark humor, and a few disturbing sequences I’ll never forget. And here he is again, the same actor I recognize as an excellent psychopath, delivering an outstanding performance in this zombie apocalypse film, Outside , directed and written by Carlo Ledesma. This filmmaker is now officially one of my favorites as well. The story takes place in a secluded Spanish colonial-era home, a decaying estate in the countryside that was once the childhood home of Francis.

Perhaps, sign a record label for more music streams. You can visit my SoundCloud to listen to my tracks. Synopsis: The story begi

People often ask where I get my ideas for writing science fiction books , and I really don't have a clear answer. The most common source is probably the movies I've watched over the years, and there are quite a few of them. Here are 60 of my favorites; there are many more, but the list goes on. "White Zombie" (1932) ,   directed by Victor Halperin, is a classic horror film that tells the story of a young couple, Neil and Madeline, who travel to Haiti for their wedding. There, they encounter a local plantation owner, Murder Legendre, who practices voodoo and has the ability to turn people into zombies. When Madeline falls under Legendre's spell, Neil seeks to rescue her, leading to a chilling confrontation with the dark forces at play. The film explores themes of love, betrayal, and the supernatural, all set against a backdrop of eerie visuals and unsettling atmosphere. "War of the Worlds" (2005) , directed by Steven Spielberg, is a sci-fi thriller based
