Horror hits the screens!

A summary of the horror film(s) that will be in theaters Oct. 3!

"Blindness"
This fall, our vision of the world will change forever ...

Apparently, a global epidemic of spontaneous blindness strikes random individuals. In Amer'ka, the response is to heard the blind into some sort of detention camp. Julianne Moore, who I used to think was hot until she got old, and women with freckles and pale skin in their 50's are just not hot, can see and hitches a ride on an ambulance to the blind camp. There, a civil war breaks out, and the one person with vision opts to lead the way to salvation.

THe horror here is based on not only the unknown & unexpected blindness that strikes innocent people, but also to fear is the degradation of the human condition. Me, I'd probably freak out if all of a sudden I lost my site, but then I could walk around and cop feels off of women's breasts and just play it off. "Sorry, blind." It's all about making the most of your situation.

On the other end, as far as this movie, I don't know if I can make it for two hours of people walking around looking in the opposite direction of people they're talking to and flailing their arms like Frankenstein, since that's apparently what blind people do to get around.
