Shake, Rattle & Roll 13 Trailer Review
Besides having a variety of film to choose from, the Metro Manila Film Festival has also become the permanent venue of the Shake, Rattle & Roll film franchise. Shake, Rattle & Roll 13 is an official 2011 MMFF entry from Regal Films which features three tales of horror which does not always ends in your regular "happy ending". So what is there to say about Shake, Rattle, & Roll 13? It has always been a requirement that in order for a trailer to be considered "good" it has to actually need to be able to have a good balance between showing and not showing things. So far, the Shake, Rattle & Roll 13 movie trailer features both. Although it featured the monstrosities in the film, there is this element of mystery as behind them. How will each episode use them?
What is there not to say about the SR&R film series? It has its share of good and bad parts, installments, acting, direction, and special effects. Hopefully the latest installment has the good ones outshining more of its bad parts. I for one am against too much dependence on computer graphic effects. I not for the bad quality of CGI used in past films, I will not be saying this but they have proven to be a headache everytime a film depends on CGI so much. When it comes to providing the scares, nothing beats a good old wax molding and makeup for the creatures, convincing acting and an engaging plot. After seeing the trailer, all I can say hat it has its bard parts (especially the CGI water in the car), but hopefully it doesn't take that much away from the whole film experience. I am looking forward to see the kind of directing, acting and writing provided by each Shake, Rattle & Roll 13 episodes.
