First full-length album from Dutch punk/metal band Rocket Fuel, entitled ‘Under The Blades’ in December! Here are the details!

Leave a comment

Rocket Fuel consists of four men who have kerosene running through their veins!

The band has decided that thrashy metal riffs, 90ties punk rock energy and bouncing metal grooves are long forgotten best friends and you can hear and see that again!

Influenced by bands like Rise Against, Strung Out, Bullet for my Valentine, Killswitch Engage, Disturbed & Pantera, Rocket Fuel creates its own original mix with a great sound as a result!

With the release of the EP ‘Too Big Too Early’ in 2019, the foursome has achieved success with airplay abroad, a series of pumping live shows and an invitation to Punk Rock Paradise 2020.

This new album is their first full-length (they already released an EP before this) and it will be released on CD (both digitally and physically) as an Independent Release. The release date is December 18, 2023.

(movie – fantasy/horror) Bird Box: Barcelona je ugodno iznenađenje

Leave a comment

David Pastor i Alex Pastor su napisali i režirali ovaj spinoff popularnog filma od prije nekoliko godina, a Netflix ga je nedavno izbacio na streaming.

Moram priznati da volim postapokaliptične filmove, a pogotovo ovako s dozom misterije. Svijet kakvog poznajemo više ne postoji, njemu vladaju bića koja ne smiiješ pogledati inače počiniš samoubojstvo i tako je većina čovječanstva skončala. U tom svijetu u Barceloni luta Sebastian i pokušava preživjeti iako mu se svaki dan priviđa njegova kćerka. No, stvari nisu kako se čine i Sebastian spada u manju grupu ljudi koji mogu pogledati bića bez da se ubiju, ali tjeraju druge da ih pogledaju kako bi oslobodili njihove duše i takve bande haraju Barcelonom. Sve se promijeni kada Sebastian susretne grupu preživjelih koji pokušavaju stići u utvrdu na brdu do koje se dolazi žičarom gdje su navodno smješteni preživjeli i gdje je izbjeglički kamp….

Ovaj akcijom i krvlju nabijeni dragulj me baš ugodno iznenadio. Smrti su iznenadne kada se najmanje nadaš, inovativno i jezivo je prikazan raspad čovječanstva u Sebastianovim sjećanjima i scene smrti i samoubojstava su efektno napravljenje. U biti atmosfera u cijelom filmu, likovi, od djevojčice Sofie, preko Claire i ostalih su odlično odglumljeni i napisani. Film je baš onako prikovao moju pažnju za ekran, a to se rijetko dešava u zadnje vrijeme, vjerujte mi kada vam to kažem. Kraj filma je svojevrsna katarza, no ostavljeni su mračni detalji za idući nastavak koji me malo podsjetio na Resident Evil franšizu, ne znam zašto, možda sam to samo ja. Šteta da ne vidimo ta bića koja su pokorila svijet, koja mogu mijenjati glasove u naše najdraže i psihološki nas natjerati da se ubijemo u momentu. Stvarno dobar film.

Zaključak: 8/10 sjekira – napet i iznenađujuće dobar film koji mi se jako dopao i vratio vjeru u odličnu španjolsku horror kinematografiju. Nadam se da će ih biti još i da neće zglajzati u prosjek s gomilanjem nastavaka.
