John Carpenter’s “The ward [2010]”


John Carpenter’s movie never failed to amaze me and at the same time scared the hell out of me. If you’re looking for a good treat of horror and at the same time action. I can recommend that you should watch “The Ward” The film was originally released last 2010. John Carpenter knows how to give a fright to his viewers. I would like to give credits to the actress and actors that made this film possible. 

 They did a good job. At the beginning of the film there’s a girl running on the woods wearing this ugly off-white lingerie.  Running like a crazy dog, she stopped in an old house; suddenly she grabbed the match and burned the house down. The police came and brought her to the mental institute. 

She then met Zoe, Iris, Emily and Sarah. In the mental institute Kristine started to have this weird dream of a girl hanging in the basement. The girl’s hands were full of mud and her face looks awful because of her hair.  Kristine’s personality is aggressive and a bit mysterious. 

She suffered from Multiple Personality disorder. She created 5 different characters and each of them has its own personality.

Top 10 Scariest Spots in Metro Manila

No one loves a good scare more than the Pinoy.   If the arrival of Typhoon "Santi" won't do the trick this weekend, pack your flashlight and head over the eeriest spots in town:
1. Ozone Disco, Quezon City

Seen and heard: Teenagers working the disco stick 'til the wee hours of the morning...at Ozone Disco, where 160 people burned to death and 95 others were injured in March 1996. Most of them were students celebrating their graduation. Every now and then, there are said to be glimpses and sounds of teen ghosts partying at the now unused building. "There were voices in agony when we went inside years ago. At first, we didn't realize what it was but as soon as we did, we ran to the exit," says Olivier Guevara, who used to go ghost hunting.
Approved for occupancy of only 35 people, Ozone Disco was packed with 400 people that fateful night in '96. With the emergency exit blocked by a new building nearby, Ozone Disco was "undoubtedly a deathtrap," Ismael Mathay, Quezon City mayor at that time, said. The Philippine Center on Transnational Crime called the Ozone Disco fire the worst fire in the Philippines.
Ozone Disco now stands in the middle of a restaurant and a moneychanger near the bustling Memorial Rotonda in Quezon City. Old, dirty and quiet, most people don't know it's the site of a tragedy that happened 13 years ago.

Capitol Medical Center, Quezon City

At the Capitol Medical Center, nobody uses a certain elevator. According to a doctor there, an orderly fell to his or her death in that elevator shaft. The orderly was talking to someone and didn't notice there was no elevator cabin when he or she stepped inside.
Nobody told this story to Kevin Sandiego. Sandiego, his father and his sister were supposed to get off at the second floor but the elevator took them to the basement. A man wearing slacks and a long-sleeved shirt got off at the basement and they followed him, thinking there was another way.
"The man turned to the left and so did we but there was no corridor, just a wall. The man vanished into thin air. We ran to the elevator but it was closed. We had to bang the elevator doors in almost complete darkness before it finally opened," Kevin says. A nurse later told them that the basement used to be a morgue.

Balete Drive, Quezon City

3. Balete Drive, Quezon City

Infamous enough to inspire a 1988 movie, Peque Gallaga's Hiwaga sa Balete Drive, Balete Drive is still one of the most whispered about haunted places in Manila. It is named after the balete trees, which are known to be homes of paranormal beings, along its road.
A white lady, bloody or faceless, is said to haunt the road at night, appearing in the backseats of taxis, seen in rearview mirrors. Some say she was raped and killed by a taxi driver, others say Japanese soldiers raped her during World War II. Motorists are advised to take alternate routes at night. If passing the road is unavoidable, there are several precautions: Make sure the backseat is fully occupied, don't look back and don't look in the mirrors.
