Smile 2 is Taking on a Genius Point of View Through a Pop Star

  Credit to Parade I finally watched the Smile 2 trailer in theaters when I went to go watch A Quiet Place: Day One (it was surprisingly a great film).  I was so surprised when the main character was revealed.  I was not expecting the film to focus on a pop star.  Finally, something original and new in the horror genre! I always wondered how it would be like if someone famous were to experience a horrible curse. The smile curse concept coming after a pop star through the many disguises of her fans is honestly terrifying.  Her fans are going to take on a sinister edge, meaning that nowhere is truly safe for this pop star.  The trailer showed enough for me to become totally hyped up for the film, I'm so excited to watch Smile 2 in theaters on October 18th. I have yet to watch the first film, but I'm glad to see that we are getting a brand-new perspective in the sequel! Thank you for reading!  Emy Quinn

The Alice in Zombieland Book Series is the Most Creative Zombie Concept Ever Made

 


There have been so many different variations of zombies over the years.

Fast zombies, zombies that are able to undergo a number of transformations, smart zombies that are able to form a pile to climb over a wall; we pretty much have seen it all!

Then I was introduced to the Alice in Zombieland book series written by Gena Showalter on my 15th birthday. I was instantly smitten with the book in front of me. I began to read the story, and I couldn’t believe my eyes.

This was the best depiction of zombies ever created.

Alice in Zombieland is like a parody of Alice in Wonderland. The story is about a girl named Alice (obviously) that loses her entire family in a horrible car accident.

She starts anew with her grandparents and going to a new school. She is struggling with several factors in her life:

  • The loss of her family
  • Feeling like a burden for her grandparents
  • Having visions of dead people following her

Alice assumes she is just crazy, but then she realizes that the visions are real. She gets all her answers when she meets a group of zombie slayers, and they explain to her the whole situation.

The zombies are actual spirits that are able to walk through any object. If they sense your fear, you will begin to feel yourself getting eaten from the inside out.

Only zombie slayers are able to see the zombies, and they are trained to leave their own bodies to become spirits to take down the creatures.

It’s a grisly sight to imagine random citizens who have no clue as to why they are suddenly feeling unimaginable pain radiating from their skin and bones. It’s a great concept. 

Creatures that you can’t see are eating you alive.

Awesome!

No. Not really.

Everyone who wants a bit of cool zombie lore should consider reading this story. It’s a fantastic blend of comedy, horror, gore, monsters, humanity, twists, and pure evil. All horror fans would love this story!

Thank you for reading!
