Wer (2013)



A hairy guy gets misunderstood for being a werewolf! Just kidding! The idea was fair enough but I was expecting he would gradually get more Were outlook...particularly at the end but it didn't turned out that way.

13 Sins (2014)



**SPOILER**I didn't get or somehow couldn't able to follow all of those 13 tasks properly...I think they didn't show or I missed few of them, I guess. Moreover, he didn't participate that biker gang task, so how could he even qualify for the last one & win the prize?**SPOILER ENDS**

And last but not the least, thought that ending twist(s) was overloaded.

Overall, a decent effort for a remake but not up to mark.

Cannibal (2013)



This is the story of Carlos, a decent middle-aged guy who is a tailor, living in small beautiful town of Granada. The thing is Carlos has an appetite for human flesh and as a decent guy he's quite good at managing his food supply by keeping himself safe from any sort of suspicion of the police or the local folks. This Spanish flick is actually more of a drama with good characterization & additional fine balance between romance & thriller. The "horror" elements are very minimal. But it was beautifully shot with a decent subtle or to some extent, art-house film approach. The ending was bit of a sudden & kinda unsatisfactory, expected more but overall I liked it.

>>: B+
