What's opening in Malaysian cinemas this week?

A lot of interesting movies are being shown in Malaysian cinemas now, quite the opposite from the US where January usually would be a slow season for Hollywood movies. This in part due to our shores receiving movies that had already been released a few months back in the US, and also because we receive movies from our neighboring Asian countries as well. Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant had just been released on December 31, 2009. We also have the great Avatar conquering movie theaters here in Malaysia as well, the local Malay movie Duhai Si Pari-Pari, the popular Hong Kong-comic-based movie The Storm Warriors, and also the last movie that starred Heath Ledger, The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus, released on the first day of the year 2010.

Quite a selection to pick from, and I didn't even mention a few others more. But what interesting movies opening in Malaysian cinemas this week?



Carriers

Another late-released movie. Never mind, at least it got here. Carriers, starring Lou Taylor Pucci, Star Trek hearthrob Chris Pine, Coyote Ugly beauty Piper Perabo, and Emily VanCamp, was released in the US back in September 2009. Set in a world of a viral pandemic outbreak, it chronicles the journey of four young adults in surviving the outbreak. The infected looks like they are turning into zombies, I bet my sister would love to see this movie. She's all about zombies...scary.



Paranormal Activity

Oh yes, the movie that created quite a buzz last year. Finally it will arrive in Malaysian cinemas tomorrow. This independent horror film had made a lot of money and considering its low budget, that's a huge amount of profits! I can't wait to see how it would perform in Asian markets.


Ju-on: White Ghost and Black Ghost

This is an interesting release. I had never heard about it before. It was actually two different horror movies that had been simultaneously released on June 2009 in Japan to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Ju-on series. It will be released in Malaysia tomorrow, December 7, 2009. It had been awhile since I last saw a Japanese horror film, this would be a great opportunity to do so. Hopefully it's a good movie.

I'm planning to go watch a movie with friends this Saturday but I can't decide which one would I watch. I have not yet watch quite a lot of them, so I have a lot of options. This is good! Have a great weekend everyone!
