(PG)
What if mankind had to leave Earth and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off? WALL-E, a robot, spends every day doing what he was made for. But soon, he will discover what he was meant for. From Academy Award-winning writer-director, Andrew Stanton ("Finding Nemo"), Disney-Pixar's "WALL-E" is the story of one robot's comic adventures as he chases his dream across the galaxy. The love between Wall-e and Eve was very touching even though little words was spoken between them. Nice movie indeed, even though the starting had very little dialogue in it.

In this movie, four uniquely independent horror stories that could have easily become whole movies on their own are put together back-to-back as they are not linked whatsoever. By sequence, the stories are "Happiness", "Tit For Tat", "In The Middle" and "Last Fright". Each runs about half an hour and you will find that they go straight to the point, without much hesitation and the unnecessary chitchat in between.

In "Happiness", it is a very short and simple story to play around. I adore the fact that you can relate to how the main feels in every situation she's facing, like the intense fear of being watched by someone or something. The main character plays her role convincingly well. The scariest part of the scene is where the man who smsed her popped out inside her house. However, you can predict that the scary part is going to come. The man died as he was knocked downed by a car. A cell hone was placed inside his casket so he won't feel lonely or in case he need to call to ind the way home.

"Tit For Tat" - this isn't the kind of story I would want to make into a full feature. It didn't really capture my interest except for the ending. The cinematography was unforgivable as the shaky effects were used too frequently and at some point, the scenes didn't show the audience clearly what had really happened. The effects used were rather average but the effort is there.

Next, "In The Middle" is possibly the best story out of the bunch. It gives the audience a dose of both horror and comedy. The actors who played four best friends conversed with one another so fluently and convincingly that you just couldn't seem to hate them. In the story, there is a familiar twist (been there, done that), however it still made the story better. The 4 friends met with an obstacle and their boat capsized. 3 of them 'survived' and they thought their friend was dead as they could not find him. At late night, the last friend, 'Aey', came back. 2 of them sensed that something was amissed, but the other did not take it to heart and was kind of happy to have him back and did not take it to heart. However, when one of the friend need to pee, Aey followed along. In the river, the friend saw a body that belonged to Aey. He ran back and soon after all 3 friends ran into the woods. However, Aey saw that there are 3 other bodies in the other part of the river. All of them actually had died.

Lastly, "Last Fright" tells the story of a flight attendant who is haunted by a spirit (or rather the dead body of a woman) on a plane. The women died as she was given food that once contained shrimps( which she was allergic to). Out of the bunch, this was a very 'plane' (please excuse the intended lame pun) story. This story was quite scary but the scary part can be expected. The flight attendant died in the end, in a kneeling position in front of the body, seeking for forgiveness. The woman said before that if one had an affair, she will be punished severely. The last thing the woman said was to kneel infront of the wife of the man she had an affair with.

However, "4bia" was definitely a unique blend of horror and comedy; and it does give a good scare-you-out-of-your-pants reaction that makes it worth the watch.
