I'm Really Excited for Joseph Quinn as Emperor Geta in Gladiator 2

  I know this really isn't horror related, but I have wanted to bring this topic up for a long time.  After watching Joseph Quinn perform in Stranger Things as Eddie, I instantly knew that this actor was going to become huge. So far, he has already made a name for himself in the horror genre, appearing in A Quiet Place: Day One, Stranger Things , and another film that will be directed by the author who wrote American Psycho! I'm so happy to see that Quinn is now going to play a villain in Gladiator 2. I have a gut feeling he is going to deliver one of the best villain performances so far this year. I can't wait to write about Emperor Geta later on, once we get more of a glimpse into his character. Something tells me that this crazy villain is going to be delightfully insane, almost as crazy as some of my favorite horror villains! A new trailer is going to be released on September 23rd, I can't wait to see more of his character! In my opinion, I thought the music choice

A Quiet Place: Day One was a Heartfelt Horror Story about Friendship Among Strangers

I am genuinely surprised that the next installment in the A Quiet Place franchise was actually good! Normally, prequel horror films tend to do pretty bad, due to poor storytelling, or explaining the origin of where the evil came from.

Fortunately, this movie did the complete opposite!

We never get a backstory to the aliens (yay) and the story that we follow is between two strangers that find each other during the end of the world.

The story follows a woman named Sam, who is sick and dying. She doesn’t allow anyone to get to close, (except for her adorable kitty cat) due to her condition.

Sam is convinced by her nurse to leave the hospice and spend time outside to enjoy a slice of pizza in the city. Sam agrees, but instead of a wonderful time in the city among humans, the alien invasion begins.

Sam barely survives and decides to begin her own journey of searching for that slice of pizza before she dies.

Not playing, that is Sam’s main goal, but the execution is honestly so sweet!

Sam meets a stranger named Eric and they stay together to survive. The chemistry between both actors is adorable, they bond over their situation and form a powerful friendship.

Eric was such a sweetheart in the film. Even though he was terrified of possibly getting killed by an alien with one swipe, he wanted to do whatever it took to make Sam happy.

Sam also did whatever it took to keep Eric alive, calming him down whenever he got too scared. Even her own kitty cat provided Eric with comfort!

Watching their last main interaction during an awesome scene when Eric is pretending to introduce Sam to an imaginary audience as they share a slice of pizza together was the best scene in the entire film!

A Quiet Place: Day One is probably my favorite film in the franchise! It was unexpected in the best way possible, and it was genius of the filmmakers to only focus on two people throughout the film.

Watching the chaos enfold through the lens of two different characters really brought an original take to the franchise!




Thank you for reading!
