Movie: The Nun (15) & The Predator (15)

The Nun (15) – what’s it about? After a death at a convent in Romania, the Vatican sends a Priest and a Nun to investigate what happened.

This is one of those horrors that I wouldn’t say is very scary, it had a couple of bits that are a little jumpy but nothing worth hiding behind a pillow. It has an ok story and it does get interesting as it goes on - no spoilers don’t worry but that's all I'll say on it. I quite liked it, it was quite easy watching for a horror. I’d say if you want to watch something a little spooky to pass the time then this is worth looking into.

Rating: ***




The Predator (15) – what’s it about? A Predator crash lands on earth and is captured by a government organisation.


Ok so I’m like a real big fan of the Predator franchise so this rating is coming from a fangirl. I was really excited to see this and was really pleased that it didn’t disappoint, unlike some other films that I’ve seen. Thankfully it wasn’t hyped too much as well, and I have to admit I tried to avoid anything but the main trailer that was shown as I didn’t want spoilers. This one gives a good mix of the humans and Predator – but its shot from the human’s perspective and focuses more on their survival. I have to admit this had a lot more humour than I was expecting, but I was creasing up in bits so don’t expect for it to be all dark and gloom and horror like, though as expected with Predator there’s a lot of ewww factor.  If you are a Predator fan then you need to go and see this – I mean stop what you’re doing and get to the chopper!!
