“Cellar Door” is a shocking suspense film with a touch of horror, which shows a couple played by Jordana Brewster and Scott Speedman. Both are looking for a new beginning after a miscarriage that disillusioned them for not being able to become parents. They decide to move to an old and very old house that hides secrets never revealed in its basement. But a rich owner named Fishburne had a condition in order to sell them very cheap and it was that they will never be able to open the door of that sinister basement. Whether or not they are capable of living without knowing it will trigger consequences they never imagined.

The plot of the film creates anxiety in the viewer, in such a way that a very heavy psychological energy is felt in an atmosphere of uncertainty due to the sudden change in each behavior of the main characters. However, another factor that produces fear is not knowing what is underneath the house. Paranormal things happen that affect the psychology of the characters with a gloomy atmosphere of silence, lack of lighting, fatal incidental noises and the management of a catharsis in the nervousness of this married couple, simulates an unexpected catastrophic ending that no one expects. .

It has great photography and lighting so the script leads us to understand that people are still prisoners of their own ego, because of that, they will face  unimaginable consequences. A film highly recommended to see in this season.

KOOZA is one of the shows where you have “hold your breath” moments in each performance. 

The seats  were great and  everything is clearly for each act.   Audience was deeply engaged while waiting for the show to start. Each performer was captivated of each act.  

The costumes were bright, tight and unique. The makeup and performance really made the show. There was a live band and the singer at the top, she had a wonderful voice. The “wheel of death” which had everyone with fear and excitement was unique and  the tight rope walkers were also another amazing act as well. So much to see and experience, you won’t want it to end. skeleton act and  costumes were  the most applauded acts. 

During 2 1/2 hours all performers show their talent and 

 ability to twist, bend, hold, dance and entertain.  The comedian clowns were cracking the audience up -a fantastic change of pace between acrobatics. This show was full of amazing costumes and visual effects but definitely worth it. Special thanks to Alessandra P. for the invitation!
