Orphan

What a good thriller-horror movie! Really! The first good horror film I've watched in 2010 is one of the best movies of 2009! Unfortunately this movie only opened in France late last year... but it was worth the wait.

At the beginning you may think "Orphan" turns around this little girl, who gets adopted and as soon she arrives at the new home... bad things happen. True. There's nothing new around the story... but, something caught by surprise: the actress who plays the main role! I was amazed how this 10 year old kid (at the time of filming) looked, behaved and talked like a killer! :-O Plus, this "little" american actress had to pretend this russian accent!

I may sound like her agent, but I'm not. Besides this amazing performace, the film is very well paced, great suspense and a twister at the end. An original twist regarding the killer's reasons...
During the movie, I was enjoying the acting so much that I was on the killer side! eheheh Like we all do with "Dexter". :-P

I've seen some good horror movies in 2009 like Drag Me to Hell, Paranormal Activity or even the amusing Final Destination 4 - 3D. "Orphan" will be at the top.

I totally recommend this movie, but no need to watch on the big screen. Just watch it.

We still don't know this year's Oscar nominations... but the best killer-actress is definitely Isabelle Fuhrman! Amazing!
