The Silent Sea (2021)

-

The Silent Sea is set in the future when the earth suffers from a lack of water and food caused by desertification. Han Yun-Jae is a soldier from the space agency. He is selected for a team, including Song Ji-An, a skilled scientist, to travel to the moon. Their mission is to retrieve a mysterious sample from an abandoned research station. 

Sci-fi is actually one of my favorite genres! So when I discovered this series, I wanted to watch it immediately. But then I forgot about this for 2 years and finally remembered to watch it this year.  

The chills I get from every episode are insane, especially every time they throw up. A group of people stranded on the moon with no way of communication is already terrifying, now add the terror of a mysterious illness that makes you throw up water and could lead you to death. I do not want to spoil too much, so if you are curious, please watch this, especially if you like dystopian, sci-fi, and suspense stuff.

My Dream Job !1!1!1

My blog isn't just a review blog, it seems like... might need to rebrand soon, lol. So I'm sitting in my room in front computer right now, feeling very bloated from my dinner and the soda drink I just had, and I actually have no idea what my dream job is. I've always dreamed of having money, just not how I will make said money. I think I just pray I will manage to get my life back together at some point and get a well-paying job, or marry a rich man and be a trophy wife… Honestly, it is a fact at this point that I'm lazy. So if I'm being very frank right now, I'll probably choose something that's easy. The problem is: there isn't a job that is easy, and that equals to me being very sad. I remember asking my mom what I should be when I grow up, and she answered with “Just be a doctor!”, saying it would be nice for me to help people. Now, when I look back, I think of how that's such a generic asian parent answer, and she probably only said it because...

'Better Days' is a Chinese film that was released in 2009. It tells the story of a girl named Chen Nian who is bullied by her classmates. One day, she meets a mysterious young man named Xiao Bei. While she copes with the stress and pressure of her final exam, an unexpected friendship is formed between them, and Xiao Bei plays the role of protector from her bullies. I watched this because a friend of mine recommended it, it definitely did not disappoint. I was a little hesitant at first because I don't have much experience with Chinese films but I am so glad I watched this one. Honestly, I love everything about this. The main leads have great chemistry and miraculous acting, which definitely help the characters be more alive. This movie also tells you about the effects of bullying, and it is great to spread awareness of the topic. I definitely encourage you to watch this, do prepare some tissues though.

'Exhuma' is a Korean horror movie released on February 22nd of 2024. The story follows a shaman named Hwa-rim and her mentee, Bong-gil, as they excavate an ominous grave that unleashes dreadful consequences buried underneath. I'll admit, I watched this because I liked the main actors and am familiar with them, but I wasn't expecting anything from this. I didn't watch it immediately after its release, so I saw the reviews online, and the majority of them were positive! So I was really excited and decided to watch the film in the theaters.  I came out of that theater as a different person. It's not the best horror movie of all time or anything, it's just... different. Different than what I'm used to, at least. The thing I am a bit surprised with was how there were little to no jump scares. Honestly, they didn't need any jumpscares because the monster itself was ridiculously terrifying enough, in my opinion. I think what makes this movie so great is the...
