Red Riding Hood

Yeah. I know. It has been 2 weeks since Red Riding Hood was first showed here in Manila. But I just watched it last Tuesday (March 22). I was feeling sick that day and thought that maybe if I watch it, I’ll feel better. Hahaha. (ang babaw, well I felt better naman after seeing the movie.). So after work, I go to Glorietta to see the movie. Bought Burger McDo Meal with large fries and super dami ketchup (gutom eh). Considering the date, I mean, like what I’ve said, it has been 2 weeks and yet there are still a lot of people who wants to see the movie. Hmmm. And if you’re thinking if I went there alone, yes I did. I don’t know. I’m getting used to it. Hahah. It’s not that because I’m emo or something, I just like watching movies. And I don’t care if I’m alone or not. Hahaha. Anyways, I love Amanda Seyfried! So, I actually didn’t know the name of the character (the name Red Riding Hood). Well, she is Valerie. Who would have thought that she has a name? Hahaha. The story is somewhat like The Tourist. It will make you think who the real werewolf is. I know, there’s no werewolf in The Tourist, but in its case, “who is Alexander Pierce?”.

Synopsis:

In “Red Riding Hood,” Seyfried plays Valerie, a beautiful young woman torn between two men. She is in love with a brooding outsider, Peter (Shiloh Fernandez), but her parents have arranged for her to marry the wealthy Henry (Max Irons). Unwilling to lose each other, Valerie and Peter are planning to run away together when they learn that Valerie’s older sister has been killed by the werewolf that prowls the dark forest surrounding their village. For years, the people have maintained an uneasy truce with the beast, offering the creature a monthly animal sacrifice. But under a blood red moon, the wolf has upped the stakes by taking a human life. Hungry for revenge, the people call on famed werewolf hunter, Father Solomon (Gary Oldman), to help them kill the wolf. But Solomon’s arrival brings unintended consequences as he warns that the wolf, who takes human form by day, could be any one of them. As the death toll rises with each moon, Valerie begins to suspect that the werewolf could be someone she loves. As panic grips the town, Valerie discovers that she has a unique connection to the beast–one that inexorably draws them together, making her both suspect…and bait.
