Survive the Night by Riley Sager

What. A. Wild. Ride!

Charlie has got to getaway. From her consuming guilt over her best friend and roommate being killed after she left her at a bar, from her boyfriend who she feels she’s weighing down, and all those faces that look at her with sympathy. So when a stranger in an Olyphant sweatshirt approaches her at the ride swap board she decides to take him up on his offer to take her to Ohio. From the way her loads her box into the trunk to a slip allowing her to see his real ID, it doesn’t take Charlie long to realize that she’s made a huge mistake and now may be riding down the interstate with the Campus Killer. Will Charlie concoct a plan to escape or will she end up the next tooth in his box?

I got through this book in record pace because I just couldn’t put it down. A thrill ride that will leave you absolutely breathless and on edge from start to finish. Each time I read a Riley Sager novel I think it can’t be as good as the others but each time he delivers and absolutely kills it! This story has twists on twists and will leave you guessing right along with Charlie what is real and what is imagined.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - 5/5

Murch apocalyptic au concept

Main weapon: double edged spear

Items on them that help on survival: revolver, night vision goggles

Concept: an device is attached to him as something that lowers the deep night's effects as it is more focused on infection on this au and Murch is one of the more infected characters

Slasher ability (mainly lorewise): activate the device and increase all stats to sort of deal more damage, more defense etc,, however go into a semi-animalistic state for a limited time. However this increases the user's insanity after it is over and the effects of the deep night will take over faster the more it is used

Status: Alive, slowly getting infected already.

The Worst of 2020

Yeah, I know. This list is coming way too late. Still, I thought you might enjoy it.

10. After We Collided

It’s a tradition on his blog to save the #10 spot for a movie that’s “so bad it’s good”. There were a couple of contenders in 2020 but I’m going to go with After We Collided. This movie is such a wild departure from the first, it’s hysterical. I don't mean that the first was "good" and this one "bad". I mean the tone and the plot. The very first scene retcons the ending of After and demotes Hardin from “happily ever after” to living under a bridge like a troll. There are many unintentionally funny moments or structural problems with the movie that make it a laugh-riot. My only regret is that when I got my friends to watch it, we were all in different rooms and had to discuss it through video call afterward. I didn't get to hear their groans as Tessa scored the job of a lifetime, the kind that doesn't exist in real life, or the laughs when the "Jacob" of this series showed up. Its missteps scream “from the Wattpad fanfiction”. It’ll never become a cult classic unless the next movie gets even crazier but I had enough fun for me to look forward to After We Fell.

9. The Last Days of American Crime

I’m as shocked as you are to see The Last Days of American Crime as the #9 worst movie of the year. It deserves to be on the list… but this “low”? Unfortunately, yes. While this movie is boring and dumb, at least I can understand why someone green-lit it. In an alternate universe where this didn’t get 0 stars and was merely bad in an average way, I could picture it being remade or ripped off, and its descendant being good. In the meantime, this is just plain awful, a cataclysmic waste of time. Unlike #10, don't go near it.

8. The Wrong Missy

The Wrong Missy gave me essentially everything I thought it would. Even so, it’s unforgivable. This isn’t the rapiest movie on this list but that doesn't matter. It’s tired, unfunny, and phony.

7. John Henry

I was tempted to leave John Henry off the list because I didn’t think anyone would’ve seen this movie, even with the star power of Terry Crews and Ludacris. Then, I saw it for sale inside a Sunrise Records. I need to remind you of how awful this film is. Anyone with any kind of sense would turn it off minutes in and if you’re wondering, no, even with Ludacris playing a laughable flamethrower-themed villain with a piece of metal bling on his face, it’s never bad in a funny way.

6. Fantasy Island

This one had potential but Blumhouse squandered all of it. This film made money. I’m sure despite its scathing reviews, Fantasy Island is being talked about as a franchise starter by the studio executives. To them, I say please don’t. This movie can’t even keep track of its own simple rules and its “spooky revelations” are nonsense. It isn’t the least bit scary and I can’t imagine audiences will be dumb enough to hop on board another trip to this “be careful what you wished for” paradise.

5. Survive the Night & Hard Kill

I’m putting these two in the #5 spot because they’re basically twins. Two Bruce Willis-led action thrillers with zero budget, zero ingenuity, zero reasons to exist, both directed by Matt Eskandari. They prove the Die Hard star doesn’t care about anything but the paychecks he gets. These movies are born out of spreadsheets; columns of numbers that confirm a beloved action star in a movie - no matter how poorly advertised or bad - will draw a certain audience. Big box stores will sell X copies based on the name alone and no one cares about anything else. If they don’t, why should I?

4. Mulan

Unlike the other films we've discussed so far, Mulan  looks great. The special effects are convincing, the costumes are a sight to behold. So what? No one would choose this adaptation over the original Disney movie. If you’re not into animation or music, there are plenty of other adaptations that don't require you to pay $30 for Disney+ premium access. I bet none of them have a lead as uncharismatic or uninspiring as this one. I don’t know what writers Rick Jaffa, Amanda Silver, Lauren Hynek, and Elizabeth Marin were thinking, turning an ordinary woman that used her wits to become a hero… into someone born with superpowers. You can’t relate to her, none of the side characters are interesting or memorable. It even botches the villain, who is about as threatening as a baby panda. This movie is part of not one, but two trends that I hate: “upgrading” animated films by making them live-action, and pandering to Chinese audiences - who rejected the movie anyway. Wonder how the people in the Xinjiang internment camps felt about this one?

3. Dolittle

Like Mulan , this movie had the money and the star power it needed. After ending his career as Iron Man/Tony Stark on a high note, we all wanted Robert Downey Jr. to move on to great things. Instead, he’s reaching into a dragon’s anus shoulder-deep to unclog its digestive system and then get a big fart in the face. Even before then, this movie contains enough annoying talking animals and out-of-place, would-be funny references to modern/pop culture to make it clear it’s one of the year’s worst movies.

2. Artemis Fowl

I can only imagine just how mad fans of the book were when they saw Artemis Fowl butchered like this. I’m furious and I had no attachment to it whatsoever. You can feel this plot trying to break free from the shackles Disney imposed on it and failing. It’s obvious Artemis Fowl is a villain, but he’s turned into a hero because ... ? Turning him "good" doesn't even work either. He’s a smarmy brat whose dad was kidnapped because some shadowy villain wants a shiny egg that does… something? This entire ordeal was poorly conceived; from the “giant dwarf” played by Josh Gad who unhinges his jaw so he can eat dirt and then shoot it out of his ass, to the useless secondary characters, the half-baked mythology, and the convoluted plot. I can’t believe it only lasts 95 minutes. It felt so much longer.

Runner-Ups:

The Babysitter: Killer Queen

This is a perfect example of a sequel that missed the mark so badly, it’s embarrassing. There are many other films I should’ve considered putting on my “worst of” list before this one but most of them were zero-budget movies no one saw; movies destined to be forgotten no one goes in with any expectations. I hate this movie as much as I do because the first is clever and fun. This is a desperate attempt to bring the dead back to life so clumsy you'll want to stay away from the original.

Antebellum I have to give credit to one aspect of Antebellum; whoever put together that trailer did a bang-up job. We all thought this was going to be the next Get Out. Instead, we got a movie that almost says something about… historical re-enactments? Boy was this movie contrived, and for what?

Pets United I haven’t heard anyone talk about or mention Pets United since its release. That’s great. It’s ugly, badly acted, badly animated, badly written. On the downside, it means no one knows what I’m talking about when I complain about this abomination. I can’t get over how lazy it is. During the climax, the villain’s giant mechanical spider gets a limb caught in a conveyor belt. Thankfully, it’s much too big to fit in the furnace this belt leads to. At best, the heroes will have a few moments to come up with a better plan to defeat it. Cut to them. Cut back to the spider, it’s now in the furnace, getting melted. Wow.

We Can Be Heroes I guess I’m in the minority when it comes to We Can Be Heroes. I thought it was awful. Generally, audiences seem to enjoy it, which is why there’s a sequel in the works. Am I the only one who was appalled by special effects that look like they come from a phone app? What about the performances? Are we just giving those a pass? How about that twist ending that makes no sense? Has no one else seen other superhero movies, seen how good they could be? Why are we letting this sloppy effort slide?

Love Wedding Repeat I don’t know what writer/director Dena Craig was thinking with Love Wedding Repeat. It begins as one of these generic “I’m reconnecting with the one that got away at the wrong time” and then 2/3 of the way in stops the ongoing train wreck, and restarts, showing us the “good timeline”. If you’re only going to show two results, why bother? It’s the limpest attempt at a time travel rom-com I’ve ever seen.

A Fall From Grace A Fall From Grace is the other 2020 movie I think might be worth checking if you’re into “so bad it’s good” movies. Unfortunately for you, it's been “improved” since its initial release to remove several mistakes (including bad acting from the extras, visible boom mikes, and continuity errors), which makes it “better” and therefore, less fun. There’s still plenty for you to enjoy ironically, however. My favorite aspect of the film is the ending, which makes NO SENSE. Well, unless you’re in a courtroom drama and the defense attorney is the worst lawyer who’s ever seen the light of day. It’s worth seeing just so you can hear “Ashtray, bitch!” in action.

1. 365 Days

First, there was Twilight, which might’ve had some contrived drama and dodgy performances, but served a purpose. Some might even call it good. At the very least, it tapped into a certain demographic's desires successfully. Then, someone went along and said “Yeah, but I don’t like this theme of chastity and waiting for marriage. Can they bang? Actually, can every scene be about them having sex? And instead of a vampire, could he be a deranged millionaire with a shattered past that makes him dangerous?” People cried foul, calling it sexist and unhealthy. Then, 365 Days comes along and says “Hold my beer”. Massimo Torricelli isn't a potential lover; he's a criminal. Not just a murderer; a kidnapper and a rapist! Oh, the movie doesn’t realize that’s what it’s showing us, but it is. This movie is disgusting. If you even have the misfortune of being in the same room as someone else while it plays, you’ll pray for an earthquake to open up the ground and send you straight to hell. At least two hours in a fiery inferno getting molested by demons would prove there’s a world beyond ours. The only thing this "erotic romantic drama" is good for is shrivelling your genitals.

Book 97 of 2021. Dear Charlie, I am sorry you've been having a tough time lately. I can't even imagine the pain of losing your best friend in such a horrific manner. The trauma and guilt, you carry for leaving her alone the night her paths crossed with a serial killer, must be astounding. I am so sorry what she endured at his hands and what you've lived with since. You became a veritable recluse and now you've decided to drop out of college and head back home. I guess I understand why you need to leave and put some distance between you and the place plagued so many memories. But did you really need to hitch a ride from a total stranger? And drive out at night? Why get into a car with someone you know nothing about, someone who from the get go is giving you sus vibes? Why girl why? And alllll of this when there is an active serial killer on campus? Haven't your beloved films taught you anything? Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! And now here you are stuck in a car with a stranger who you've begun to suspect is the serial killer and there is nothing but the dark night stretching ahead of you. Man, I wish you well. But I can't in all honesty really wrap my head around some of seriously stupid decisions you've made lately. Seriously Behen stay satark and safe. Much Concern and Some Eye-Rolling, Pooja PS: The full review for this book is up on the blog.

Multimodality in movie posters

The affordances of images are various. Images have a more direct effect than text, provoking immediate emotional reactions in the audience. Furthermore,  they are polysemous, that is, they can display more than one message at the same time.

Movie posters are a form of visual communication designed to promoting and advertising a movie, capturing viewers’ attention so as to make them interested in watching it. Representational meaning of a movie poster is indispensable to have a right understanding of the movie themes, mood and key elements reflected by designs, colours, and fonts. Furthermore, movie posters usually include slogans that make the plot seem intriguing.

‘The Purge’ is one of my favourite movies. Through the multimodal analysis of its poster, it is possible to gain a better understanding of the elements that effectively grab the attention of the audience a advertise the movie.

The poster is quite simple and  it has a dark colour scheme and black background, which is typical of horror movie posters and symbolise danger and evil. The main element in the poster is man wearing a mask with a sinister smile, connoting that this character may be a psychopath and giving the idea that there are evil people in the movie.

All the text is in white font and reinforces the horror convention as it makes the words stand out from the dark intimidating background. At the top left of the poster , where people naturally begin reading first, there is a line saying ‘from the producer of Paranormal Activity and Sinister’. This is a clever technique to attract the audience attention. Indeed, including this information is useful since people who are fans of these previous movies will be interested in seeing that one, assuming it is as successful/scary as the others.

The title is not big, but it stands out from the rest of the text, allowing the audience to recognise it. The quote ‘One Night A Year All Crime Is Legal’ above the title gives a perfect idea of what the movie is about: a night filled with crimes and violence.

Ultimately, it is possible to see that there is the small faint writing at the bottom of the poster,  which provides information about the producers of the movie, who is in it and the movie institutions. This part includes the hashtag  ‘#survivethenight’. This is a great way to sponsor the movie, by getting people talking about it on social media and making the audience feel more involved. It is interesting to see that there are a lot of posts and conversations on social media about this movie, such as ‘what would you do during the Purge?’.

A visual image is easy to remember than a text and it is worth a thousand words. However, if it were not for the text, one may not completely understand what the movie is about by only looking at the image and vice versa. That’s why text and image are combined together to better achieve the poster aim.

Does this poster make you want to watch this movie?

Back in November I hosted my own readathon!! This was the LDR-athon (or Long Distance Relationship readathon) where we read books based on prompts relating to LDRs.

I had so much fun hosting this readathon, reading one of my favourite books of the year (can you guess which one?), and can't wait to potentially do it again in 2022!
