Why watch this film?
Despite not declaring itself as a remake, but rather as a "different version of the same story," the American 'Alone' has the same story as the Korean feature film '#Alive,' a success in Netflix's catalog. Both productions, scripted by Matt Naylor, tell the story of a man who wakes up in a world dominated by zombies--from there, he must deal with loneliness, strange noises, and the friendship that blossoms with a neighbor from across the street. So let's forget this nonsense about a "new version" and accept that it's a remake. Period. From there, we can see that this American retelling is a few steps below. The protagonist is not as interesting, the character development is more careless, and there are more moments of tension in the Korean work. However, for those who have not seen the first movie, they can find some interesting scenes here, a desperate setting, and the like. The highlight is the conclusion, much better than the one seen in the Korean feature film.

From the same director
Hangman
'Letters of Death' flirts with thrillers like 'Se7en: The Seven Deadly Sins' and 'Zodiac', but it doesn't get there. This isn't Al Pacino's best movie, the script is weak but his performance is still impeccable as always. It's not a completely bad production, it's worth the entertainment and the good cast.
Vengeance: A Love Story
Oscar-winning Nicolas Cage and Don Johnson star in 'Vengeance: A Love Story', based on Joyce Carol Oates' novel, with a screenplay penned by 'House of Cards' producer-writer John Mankiewicz. With action scenes, high levels of violence, and several clichés, this is one of those movies that divided audiences and critics alike. We recommend it to fans of Nicolas Cage and vigilante movies.
Horror
The Nightman
The Nightman a dramatic thriller that explores the dangerous boundary between love and darkness. The story follows a young pregnant woman who begins to question the perfection of her boyfriend upon discovering his possible involvement in mysterious disappearances and murders, linked to his sleepwalking behavior. With praised performances and precise direction, the film delves into complex themes of relationships and personal dilemmas, keeping the audience engaged in its dark suspense.
Abigail
Abigail demonstrates why we should keep an eye on the director duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, especially when they have original material at their disposal (they also directed Scream 5 and 6, with mixed results). Abigail is a film that manages to balance the terror and tragedy of its characters with the absurdity of its premise, thanks to a clever script that plays with the conventions of vampire literature, careful direction, and a phenomenal cast (led by Mexican actress Melissa Barrera and Dan Stevens) that fully utilizes their roles. The plot follows a group of kidnappers tasked with a delicate job: to kidnap a millionaire's daughter for ransom. However, it all turns out to be a trap: beneath the guise of a 12-year-old girl, the victim is actually an ancient vampire who likes to play with her food. Like Ready or Not in its time, this film is self-aware, pushing its story and violence to the most absurd and fun limits without falling into self-parody. It won’t change the history of horror cinema, but it’s an excellent (and even stylish for a film of its genre, I dare say) choice for a fun time at the movies with friends.
