Carrie- The Killer Musical Experience

Horror,Stephen King, and Musical Theater three things that I love and I got to experience all these things in one fun filled evening. Carrie-The Killer Musical Experience is based on the Stephen King’s novel Carrie a story of a shy teenage girl who is tormented by the popular kids and her very religious mother. She comes to discover she has some special powers and after prom everyone will know what happens when things go too far.

To be very honest I was not expecting much from this show. I was able to get tickets on Goldstar and it seemed like a fun Halloween month activity. Also, it is at the Los Angeles Theater on Broadway in Downtown Los Angeles so the chance to go to this historic location is worth it to me.I have to say I was pleasantly surprised, this is an exciting , interesting, well done show. The character development in the songs give you something the movie version was missing. The actors in this production were strong and the voices powerful. The first act had me sucked in ,but I knew if they didn’t pull off the prom scene it would be failure in my book. They did it above and beyond what I thought they could do. The effects,the set ,the lighting design it all worked sepectaularly!

If you are in Los Angeles this October then you need to experience this prom for yourself! It is opening October 8th at the Los Angeles Theater and it will be playing for only 6 weeks so get your ticket to the prom now

“The Green Inferno”

Let me start this month of horror movies off with a new release out in theaters now. I was anxiously awaiting the release of this movie for months. First thing that made me squeal with excitement was the name Greg Nicotero on the screen . I knew I was in for some great gore effects. Next I was looking forward to Eli Roth’s gorey,fun,surpring horror style. I wasn’t disappointed .
The movie follows a group of college kids who head off to the rainforest to try and protect a village from being destroyed . they save the village go home and are heroes all over the news……..just kidding …things don’t go well for them. I love the fact that all of the actors are not well known ( except I did say “oh look Juni Cortez from spy kids”) it kept me wondering who would be the next to die.
Is this movie a masterpiece of suspense and horror . Not really. Is it a fun gory highly entertaining Eli Roth horror movie ? YES. I really loved it for that pure entertainment factor and I will probably see it again In theaters.

I give this horror movie 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃/10
