When Melanie refuses to yield her mind to the alien they struggle for what may be the last remaining human being on planet Earth.lso starring William Hurt (The Big Chill, Kiss of the Spider Woman) as Melanie's eccentric uncle Jebediah Stryder, Diane Kruger (National Treasure, Inhale) is one of the mind stealing alien "souls", and Jake Abel (I Am Number Four, The Lovely Bones) is a rebellious human who wants to kill the aliens as quickly as he can find them.

Undoubtfully, cinematography has been my passion since a very young age. Even now, watching a new movie or series always prompts me to ask a lot of questions to the author. Thus, every little essay about a title is definitely not a spoiler, but rather an attempt to explore the idea.

It seems absolutely clear that the gap left by ending of Harry Potter and Twilight Saga in 2012 could not be empty for a long time. And, here it is – Warner Bros attempts to bring brand new hit to young adult audience with film adaptation of Kami Garcia's and Margaret Stohl's Beautiful Creatures, a young adult novel which has gotten some very rave reviews in 2009 when it was published by Little, Brown, and Company. So, WB hopes to put a beginning of new money making movie series, by not only taking the very promising book as a storyline but gathering most talented actors to star in the new film. The main protagonist Ethan Wate is portrayed by Alden Ehrenreich, who was "discovered" by Stiven Spielberg and starred in Melanie Shaw's Running Wild and Chan-wook Park's Stoker at the time of Beautiful Creatures release. His character Ethan tries to escape a boring reality of a teenager living in the dead end of the small town. At one day Ethan awakes after a recurring dream about unknown girl. He listens a creepy-hypnotic song called Sixteen Moons on his iPad then smelsl a quite surprising aroma of rosemary and lemon coming from nowhere and goes to school to know that there is a new girl in his class. Meanwhile, returning home he almost runs over this new girl standing in the middle of the road. He hears the familiar Sixteen Moons playing in her car and smells and notes of rosemary and lemon from her hair. Soon, he learns that this new girl is a kind of sorceress, a Caster, and his dream somehow connected with the destiny of this girl. Her name is Lena (Alice Englert) and she is about her sixteen birthday when she has to decide which part of magic force she belongs: Light or Dark.
