Movie

I saw some horror movies during my vacation. I love horror movies. It’s very exciting. I saw”EXTE” with my friends. But it is not scary but funny. So I tell you about two horror movies: Shutter and SAW. It is the best horror movies for me.
SHUTTER
I tell you about”Shutter” which is made in 2008. I saw at theater on September 7 with my friend. This is fiction. Megumi Okina is performing. The direction is Japanese. But this is Hollywood movie. This is a story about a couple encounters the spirit experience. They go to Japan at the honeymoon. They run over the woman at the time of going to the cottage. But she had disappeared. After that, a white blot reflects in the photograph and husband's shoulder becomes painful. The identity of the woman who they had run over was husband's former girlfriend. But she was dead. Husband's past is clarified. It’s bad action. The last scene is very terrible and sad.
SAW
Second, I saw “SAW” with my friends. “SAW” is made in 2004. The theme is “Happiness of thing that can be live”. This is a story about the game staked their survivals. Two people tied to chain, the dead body between them. If you want to live, you have to kill him. Live or die, it depends on you. It’s scary and mysterious. But story is very nice. I love it.　We saw “SAW2” ”SAW3” and ”SAW4” last week. And “SAW5” will road show on November, 2008. I will see at the theater with my friends.
