Re: The 11th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/31) ***The List Threa



2015 GOALS:
- Complete all of the checklist (minimum requirements)
- Complete all of the theme nights.
- Complete at least 5 of the subsets.
- Complete at least 40 first time views, attempting 80 total.
- Complete all of the ABC checklist (for the letter y, I decided can be anywhere in the title doesn't have to start with this letter).
- Complete all of the world checklist.

Key:
- First time viewing
D = dvd
O = online
= pure shit
✪✪ = barely okay
✪✪✪ = average
✪✪✪✪ = very good
✪✪✪✪✪ = love it

SEPT 30 (DUSK):
1. Carnival Of Souls (1962) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - Really enjoyed revisiting this for the criterion crossover theme. I definitely noticed more details from this second viewing which made me love and appreciate this film even more.

2. The Blob (1958) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - This is a good simple classic sci fi horror, even as a huge fan of the 80's version.

3. White Dog (1982) ✪✪✪ (O) - Without getting into all the controversy surrounding this film I thought it was an okay way to pass the time as I always find animal attack films to be interesting in general. That being said I don't have any strong opinions either way just watched it for what it is.

OCT 1:

4. It Follows (2014) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - Wow I loved this style over substance horror flick. It is a nice subtle and unique idea to me horror that we don't get a ton of nowadays so I was willing to overlook the flaws.

5. Come Back To Me (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Another enjoyable surprise that took a turn I wasn't expecting but appreciated it for its unique idea too, at least I haven't seen a horror flick exactly like this before. I seem to have spontaneously watched two unique 2014 horror flicks in a row haha.

6. Exists (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Enjoyable aggressive bigfoot found footage movie by the director of Blair Witch Project.

OCT 2:

7. Bereavement (2010) ✪✪ (O) - Not the worst slasher I've seen but very meh.

8. Braindead aka Dead Alive (1992) ✪✪✪✪✪ (DVD) - Second time watching and first time showing my boyfriend this, so much fun and he loved it too.

9. Let The Right One In (2008) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Well done vampire film that presents a lot of interesting topics throughout the run time.

10. Byzantium (2012) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - What a beautiful vampire film by the director of Interview With The Vampire, the only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I don't know that I could rewatch this film again which I prefer to give 5 stars to films I love so much to rewatch multiple times but it is worth at least a one time watch if you like vampire films of all types.

OCT 3:

11. As Above, So Below (2014) ✪✪✪ (O) - Average found footage set in the catacombs which I think is the best thing about it. I am a huge fan of cool settings in horror films and this one was great with that. I think for most people it would be tense as hell I just don't get creeped out as easily but being in that situation sure would suck.

12. Cooties (2014) ✪✪✪ (O) - This was an okay horror comedy with some funny scenes but not great.

13. Sleepy Hollow (1999) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - One of my favorite movies to watch around this time of year.

14. Bait (2012) ✪✪✪ (O) - Better than Sharknado in my opinion and not a bad way to pass the time if you can overlook the flaws.

OCT 4:

15. Backcountry (2014) ✪✪✪ (O) - Not a bad survival horror to pass the time if you are into these types of movies.

16. Lady In White (1988) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - This was a nice ghost story with a murder mystery interwoven into it. I didn't see the twist coming until it was pretty much revealed so that was nice.

17/18. Stephen King's IT (1990) ✪✪✪✪✪ (DVD) - This is one that I grew up on so it'll always hold a special place in my heart but definitely prefer the first half.

OCT 5:

19. May (2002) ✪✪✪ (O) - This was different. I liked it, didn't love it. Angela Bettis did a good job of getting into character though.

20. The Quatermass Xperiment (1955) ✪✪✪ (O) - Better than I'm rating it, just didn't connect to it as much as I hoped but didn't think it was bad either.

21. Excision (2012) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I think AnnaLynne McCord gives a fabulous performance as the main lead and wow on the ending.

OCT 6:

22. Haunt (2014) ✪✪ (O) - I was ok with the movie until the end twist then it ruined it for me because it doesn't add up entirely.

23. We Are Still Here (2015) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Wow I really enjoyed this and the ending was fun to watch.

24. Curtains (1983) ✪✪✪ (O) - I really liked some of the scenes such as the infamous ice skating one but overall it was just an average slasher to me.

OCT 7:

25. Girl House (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - This was so much better than I thought it would be. Didn't care for the porn website aspect (though it did bring an interesting dynamic digitally with some things that happened in the overall scheme of things) but everything else rocked. I liked the lead girl too.

26. The Fall Of The House Of Usher (1960) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I think Vincent Price does excellent here and I enjoyed everyone's performances. I liked the story, atmosphere, and setting very much too.

OCT 8:

27. Starry Eyes (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Don't want to spoil the storyline with what I could comment on but this was awesome in my "eyes" haha.

28. X: The Man With The X-Ray Eyes (1963) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Interesting subject matter and Ray Milland gave a good performance.

29. The Taking Of Deborah Logan (2014) ✪✪✪ (O) - Had some cool creepy moments, wasn't boring, and was better than I thought it would be just didn't love love it.

OCT 9:

30. Burying The Ex (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - This was such a fun horror comedy. I especially loved all the horror movie references for us horror movie fans.

31. Wyrmwood: Road Of The Dead (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - A fun non-stop horror action zombie film that brings some interesting methods into play.

OCT 10:

32. Would You Rather (2012) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I love anything revolving around a game or competition but this was just average, not too terrible but could have been better. (Update: Changed mind I decided to rate it a star higher than I initially did because I think I was too quick to judge, thinking back on it I enjoyed my time watching this but not quite 5 star.)

33. Severance (2006) ✪✪✪ (O) - I thought it was an okay average slasher in a good setting.

34. The Final Girls (2015) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - I loved this movie so hard. Definitely a new favorite and great love letter to slasher fans which is my favorite horror subgenre and all around a fun time. I already want to watch it again haha.

OCT 11:

35. Shocker (1989) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. I like how it's a different kind of slasher.

36. New Nightmare (1994) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Always have enjoyed this, not as much as original but its a fun time.

OCT 12:

37. Nightbreed (Director's Cut) (1990) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - At first I wasn't sure if I would like this as it starts off throwing you right into the confusing storyline but then all starts to come together (at least in the director's cut version I watched). I enjoyed the good vs. evil war it presents by turning the tables on who is good and who is bad. So much fun to watch and the final showdown is awesome too.

38. Exeter (2015) ✪✪ (O) - The only reason I checked this out even though it has a mediocre rating on imdb is because I have loved Marcus Nispel's other horror movies but wow this was pretty awful.

OCT 13:

39. The Babadook (2014) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - This is my second time seeing it for the subset idea I threw in and I enjoyed it just as much. I think it has such a dark creepy vibe and well done. Can't say much more without spoiling it.

40. The Unknown (1927) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Really enjoyed this silent era horror and the tragic story it tells.

OCT 14:

41. WolfCop (2014) ✪✪ (O) - Wasn't as good as I was hoping, it has some okay moments but not good enough.

42. The Devil's Rejects (2005) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - This was fun to watch more so than House Of 1000 Corpses which I thought that movie started out fine but the 2nd half got too weird but in this film the characters, dialogue, and music were all good but don't love it as much as many other horror films. (Update: Changing my rating from 3 to 4 stars because I realized I enjoyed this more than I thought initially thinking back on it.)

43. Maniac Cop (1988) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Really enjoyed this action/horror film, probably going to watch the sequel before the end of the month if not all 3 in the trilogy.

OCT 15:

44. Body Bags (1993) ✪✪✪ (O) - Good average simple 90's cheese horror anthology.

45. The Conspiracy (2012) ✪✪✪ (O) - Interesting subject matter and very subtle horror that is different than most I've seen. It was middle of the road for me as a whole and I probably wouldn't watch it again but good for a first time view.

OCT 16:

46. Honeymoon (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I enjoyed this quite a bit. It's far from perfect but I felt for the characters and the situation they were put into and I don't see a lot of good slow burn horrors in this subgenre which I won't name because of spoilers. I also found it to be unnerving and thought about it still after the film was over (the idea of what went down).

47. Resolution (2012) ✪✪✪ (O) - I wasn't bored necessarily but felt that it could have been a little less subtle in this case at least in terms of the horror elements. I viewed it as more of a subtle mystery/thriller/drama which is fine but was hoping for more horror thrown in. Also if you don't like slow burns that are mainly dialogue you may not like this.

OCT 17:

48. Frankenhooker (1990) ✪✪✪ (O) - This was an unexpected surprise as a horror comedy, wow at some moments in the film. It's one of those so bad it's average good films that I wouldn't have enjoyed as much had I watched it alone but I had fun watching it with the boyfriend making additional commentary during it. I was sleep deprived too which made for an interesting experience. The ending was comedy gold.

49. Re-Animator (1985) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Enjoyed it more on second viewing but I'm still not the biggest body horror fan ever.

OCT 18:

50. The Rite (2011) ✪✪✪ (O) - Decent exorcist themed horror, wasn't blown away but better than I thought it would be. Anthony Hopkins is the best part of this film.

51/52/53. American Horror Story: Murder House Episodes 1-6 ✪✪✪✪ (O) - This was so good, about time to have checked this out.

OCT 19:

54/55/56. American Horror Story: Murder House Episodes 7-12 ✪✪✪✪ (O) - The second half of this season was even better but I rate the entire first season as a 4 stars overall. Evan Peters is phenomenal in this.

57. The Faculty (1998) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Another fun rewatch, so fitting for the school horror theme today.

OCT 20:

58. Mark Of The Vampire (1935) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - This was fast paced and entertaining for a classic horror and had an unexpected twist at the end.

59. Fright Night (2011) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Enjoyed this more than I expected to. I love the house explosion and highway scenes with a cool cameo and David Tennant rocks as always.

60. Bloodsucking Bastards (2015) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - WOW this had me cracking up big time (at least at the halfway mark until the end especially), so many funny one liners/dialogue throughout and I don't laugh easily during comedy movies (more of a tv comedy fan) but this worked so well for me horror comedy wise.

61. I Spit On Your Grave III: Vengeance Is Mine (2015) ✪✪ (O) - I enjoyed the storyline more than the others (had heard it wasn't just focused on torture porn as the others were and my high school classmate Russell Pitts played the co-worker that flirted with the main girl so I mainly watched it for that out of curiosity) however the kill scenes were whoa... too much for my taste as I'm not into torture.

OCT 21:

62. Kristy (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I really liked the atmosphere of this movie, the setting, and it's subgenre is one of my all time favorites. The only complaint I really have that docked off a star for me was it was too dark at times hard to see what was going on.

63. In The Mouth Of Madness (1994) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I really like the surreal feel of this film and it's creepy moments are awesome.

OCT 22:

64. I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Another fun rewatch for me, I grew up watching this more times than I can count and this is one of the first horror films that got me to love the slasher genre when I was younger so it holds a soft spot for me.

65. Cabin Fever (2002) ✪✪ (O) - Not a huge fan of body horror so this doesn't really work for me as it's pretty gory in that aspect but I do like it more than Hostel.

66. It! The Terror From Beyond Space (1958) ✪✪✪ (O) - Interesting ties with Alien (1979) and funny at times, decent classic scifi horror.

OCT 23:

67. House Of Wax (2005) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - I have always really enjoyed this movie, it's just a fun time in my eyes.

68. Insidious (2010) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I enjoy the creepy moments in this but for some reason I've never been as blown away by most people with this movie overall which is why I can't give it the full five stars, not sure why. It's still pretty great especially for people who get scared easily they will have nightmares haha.

OCT 24:

69. Insidious: Chapter 3 (2015) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Another good entry into the trilogy that is an interesting prequel. Has some awesome creepy moments.

70. The Fly (1958) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - This was very interesting to watch, I had seen the 80's remake previously but didn't remember the exact storyline so it was awesome to see it all unfold. I love the creepy tone this has that gets under your skin and makes you disturbed thinking about it, at least for me it did even if not realistic.

OCT 25:

71. Lord Of Illusions (1995) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I really like the unique plot of this at least from what I've seen in horror before.

72. Unfriended (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Really enjoyed the way this movie shows from the POV of the main character and the computer aspect brought into this. I haven't seen computer related horror before where the whole movie is on it and it was awesome for that. I also enjoyed the tense moments.

73. The Loved Ones (2009) ✪✪✪ (O) - Lola's character was well acted for the part and the overall premise does disturb which is it's intention. The dark comedy parts were interesting too. I am just not the biggest fan of the torture aspects of it.

OCT 26:

74. The Stepfather (1987) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - Love Terry O'Quinn's performance in this and one of my favorite horror subgenres.

75. The Stepfather II (1989) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Almost as good as the first one but not quite there. Still very enjoyable.

76. Psycho III (1986) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Not as great as the first 2 but I enjoyed it quite a bit, Anthony Perkins is amazing getting into character.

OCT 27:

77. Late Phases (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Loved the werewolf scenes and the blind aspect made it creepier in that situation. It was also cool to see so many familiar faces.

78. Wer (2013) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I enjoyed this quite a bit for a found footage style werewolf movie and was a fun time.

79. The Curse Of The Werewolf (1961) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Great classic werewolf movie that ends on a
Spoiler:
sad note
and enjoyed Oliver Reed's performance.

80. Wolves (2014) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Fun werewolf action movie. Though I am a huge werewolf fan so I'm a little open-minded when it comes to this subgenre.

OCT 28:

81. The Haunting (1963) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - Finally I got around to seeing this popular classic, I have rewatched the 90's remake more times than I can count (nostalgia thing for me from when I was a kid even though it's not amazing) but this was miles ahead of that. Loved the atmosphere and setting and the actor's performances were great too.

82. We Are What We Are (2013) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - I really enjoyed the subtleness of this movie building to an intense ending. I appreciated that this wasn't focused on gore and more focus towards the psychological affects/ character study of the family members in the particular situation which I won't spoil since it's better to be surprised in this case.

83. Curve (2015) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Another one that falls in to my favorite subgenres in horror movies and the setting was great too. It's a little bit of a combination of The Hitcher meets survival thriller if that sounds appealing to you, you might enjoy this. It can be slow at times (not to me personally but to others maybe) so if the subject matter doesn't appeal to you it may not be for you.

84. Demonic (2015) ✪✪✪ (O) - This was one I was looking forward to the most and it was pretty disappointing, some people might really enjoy it as it does have some interesting twists if you aren't the type to guess everything easily but it missed the mark for me overall to be way better.

OCT 29:

85. Lords Of Salem (2012) ✪✪✪ (O) - I enjoyed the setting, the surreal feel at times, and the witch aspect but it was a little too dragged out and bizarre at times for me to give it a higher rating.

86. Afflicted (2013) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - Total surprise of how entertaining a found footage this film was. I am not going to say more as the mystery or type of horror film it is aside from what I've already mentioned is better discovered yourselves if going in blind but wow definitely a new favorite that was a fun rollercoaster ride from beginning to end.

87. The Canal (2014) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - This was another total surprise, loved it. If you like The Babadook you would probably like this.

88. Suspira (1977) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - One of my favorites to rewatch this time of year. Love the music and colors.

OCT 30:

89. The Frighteners (1996) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - Really love this film, was my first time showing my boyfriend this film and my second viewing after seeing it the first time last year. My 3rd favorite Michael J. Fox film aside from Back To The Future 1 & 2.

90. Them aka Ils (2006) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - Another enjoyable rewatch that I love the setting and subgenre of.

OCT 31:


91. Halloween (1978) ✪✪✪✪✪ (BD) - The best halloween horror movie of all time.

92. Halloween II (1981) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - Love revisiting this sequel.

93. Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998) ✪✪✪✪✪ (O) - Another favorite in the franchise that I enjoy revisiting around this time of year.

94. Tales Of Halloween (2015) ✪✪✪ (O) - Some good tales, some just okay. My favorites were The Night Billy Raised Hell and The Ransom Of Rusty Rex, my least favorite was Ding Dong.

NOV 1:

95. The Monster Squad (1987) ✪✪✪✪ (O) - Finally got around to seeing this, loved this fun 80's horror comedy movie.

Wildcards Spoilered
Spoiler:
Use for titles that lie outside the horror genre and normally wouldn't qualify or for those questionable titles you're not 100% certain about. They can also be used to count titles that aren't intended to be included as a full entry (I.E. a leftover 30-minute TV episode or short film). You have 3 so use them wisely.

For every 100 movies watched, you earn 1 extra wild card.

September 30 Dusk
*1. Rosemary's Baby (1968) 7/10
Review/comments: Seen once 10 years ago, thought it was ok. Liked it much more this time. Great build-up and acting.
2. Gospodin oformitel (1987) 4/10
Review/comments: The initial scene was nice, but the rest of it was artless, pointless rubbish.
3. Husk (2011) 4/10
Review/comments: Very boring and blah in every aspect.

October 1
4. The Legend of Boggy Creek (1972) 4/10
Review/comments: Ok for its obvious budget, but very boring and the jumping between faux doc and film didn't work.
5. Gui da gui (1980) 7/10
Review/comments: I really like these kung fu movies, I have no idea why. Lots of fun.
6. Tsumetai nettaigyo (2010) 4/10
Review/comments: Boring and not very good.
7. Kyuketsuki Gokemidoro (1968) 6/10
Review/comments: I gave it a more generous rating than I felt because it was a decently made film. A bit dull, but not bad.
8. Cooties (2014) 6/10
Review/comments: Humour was too silly for me, but it was entertaining enough. Leigh Whannell was the only thing I found funny. Well-shot film.

October 2
9. Mountaintop Motel Massacre (1986) 6/10
Review/comments: A lot better than I expected. Drags a bit, but decent slasher.
10. The Man Who Changed His Mind (1936) 5/10
Review/comments: Nothing new and pretty blah typical horror/sci-fi film of its time, but watchable and short.
11. Zhong gui (1983) 5/10
Review/comments: Took a while to get going and not much really happened. The end had some cool effects and craziness though.
12. Black Death (2010) 6/10
Review/comments: Not really a horror film. Some interesting concepts that don't fully come together.
13. Bloodsucking Bastards (2015) 6/10
Review/comments: Entertaining, though a bit silly.
14. Noriko no shokutaku (2005) 4/10
Review/comments: Awful and boring.
15. Not of This Earth (1988) 6/10
Review/comments: Awesome dialogue.

October 3
16. Die Schlangengrube und das Pendel (1967) 5/10
Review/comments: Ok, but it felt like it something was missing.
17. The Man Who Could Cheat Death (1959) 5/10
Review/comments: Nothing I haven't seen before, just watchable.
18. To the Devil a Daughter (1976) 4/10
Review/comments: Really dull.
19. Nachts, wenn Dracula erwacht (1970) 4/10
Review/comments: One of the more coherent Franco's, but it's still Franco. Boring.
20. The Oblong Box (1969) 5/10
Review/comments: Plot was a mess and film was very bland.
21. Ranpo jigoku (2005) 4/10
Review/comments: Liked the opening sequence and found some of the concepts interesting but did not like how they were done.

October 4
*22. Drag Me to Hell (2009) 6/10
Review/comments: Hated this when I first saw it. Still have some issues with it, like the CGI, but it's decent.
23. The Night Strangler (1973) 5/10
Review/comments: Not a fan of this story, the way it's told or the lead character.
24. U.F.O. Abduction (1989) 6/10
Review/comments: Not the greatest, and a bit dull at times, but is done pretty well.
25. Películas para no dormir: La habitación del niño (2006) 6/10
Review/comments: Pretty standard, but decently entertaining.
26. When a Stranger Calls Back (1993) 6/10
Review/comments: Like the first one, incredibly intense opening. Rest of it pretty standard. Better than the first one.
27. Voodoo Man (1944) 5/10
Review/comments: Forgettable, but watchable.
28. Pop Skull (2007) 4/10
Review/comments: Some interesting techniques, but crappy film.
29. White Settlers (2014) 5/10
Review/comments: Build-up way too slow. Hated the characters. The invasion stuff was ok.
*30. Cabin Fever (2002) 9/10
Review/comments: Still love it. The shower scene is classic. The characters are kind of stupid and psycho though.

October 5
31. Kondom des Grauens (1996) 4/10
Review/comments: Annoyingly boring.

October 6
32. The Boogens (1981) 6/10
Review/comments: Not enough Boogens-y action, no real build-up, but oddly likable.
33. You'll Like My Mother (1972) 5/10
Review/comments: No chemistry between the characters and lacked tension.

October 7
34. Malpertuis (1971) 4/10
Review/comments: Didn't really get it and couldn't get into it.
*35. Pet Sematary (1989) 10/10
Review/comments: One of my favourites as a kid, that still holds up. Acting is mostly bad, but most of it's good. Zelda used to scare the hell out of me.

October 8
36. Gatti rossi in un labirinto di vetro (1975) 4/10
Review/comments: Very dull.
37. Poltergeist II: The Other Side (1986) 4/10
Review/comments: What a mess.

October 9
38. Mutants (2009) 5/10
Review/comments: Ok at times, but too unfocused and not particularly effective.
39. I Survived a Zombie Holocaust (2014) 4/10
Review/comments: Way too long. Pointlessly long build-up. Not funny. Annoying characters.
40. Les revenants (2004) 4/10
Review/comments: Being harsh, but it was a lazy film that asked no questions and gave no answers.
41. Contracted: Phase II (2015) 5/10
Review/comments: Unnecessary and stupid sequel, yet still somehow watchable.
42. Miss Zombie (2013) 5/10
Review/comments: Started off interesting. Nice visuals, atmosphere and pacing, but becomes pointless schlock part way through.

October 10
43. Die Tür mit den 7 Schlössern (1962) 5/10
Review/comments: Not too bad, but after a promising start begins to drag.
44. El jorobado de la Morgue (1973) 5/10
Review/comments: It was dumb, but not terrible.
45. Laurin (1989) 4/10
Review/comments: Pretty lame and dull.
46. Lèvres de sang (1975) 4/10
Review/comments: It's Rollin.
47. Necronomicon - Geträumte Sünden (1968) 4/10
Review/comments: Wtf?
48. La ville des pirates (1983) 4/10
Review/comments: Some nice visuals, but I didn't really like anything else about it and they weren't good enough to compensate.
49. Sharknado 2: The Second One (2014) 4/10
Review/comments: Some cool sharky action, but mostly very boring. They need to write fun scripts.

October 11
50. Tenshi no tamago (1985) 5/10
Review/comments: Just couldn't get into it. Nothing really noteworthy, but nothing terrible either.
51. Vampire in Brooklyn (1995) 5/10
Review/comments: Dumb and a bit boring, but watchable.
# Lot254 (2012) 5/10
Review/comments: Nice lighting, but annoying jumpscares. 4 mins
# Don't Move (2013) 6/10
Review/comments: Really awesome concept, though acting and script a bit weak. Worth a watch though. 10 mins
# The Whistler (2013) 5/10
Review/comments: Needed more context. 8 mins
# Prey (2011) 5/10
Review/comments: Started off nicely, but ended up getting random and jumpscare-y. 8 mins
# There Are Monsters (2008) 4/10
Review/comments: Bad acting and terrible ending. Cashier was creepy though. 10 mins
# Daddy (2012) 4/10
Review/comments: Not done very well and dumb ending. 4 mins
# Torture Porn (2015) 5/10
Review/comments: Terrible acting from the dude on the table. Needed more of a story as well. 5 mins
#52. Subject 7 (2011) 5/10
Review/comments: Didn't really have a point, I didn't know what was supposed to be going on. 8 mins
53. The Hills Have Eyes Part II (1984) 4/10
Review/comments: Very boring.
54. Invitation to Hell (1984) 5/10
Review/comments: Pretty bland and predictable, but watchable.
55. Stranger in Our House (1978) 6/10
Review/comments: I liked it, though some of it seemed off. The actress playing Julia was very good, but Linda Blair sucked.
56. Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010) 7/10
Review/comments: Really great and informative documentary about the entire series.

October 12
57. Basket Case 2 (1990) 7/10
Had low expectations, but was surprisingly enjoyable. I can't explain why I like Henenlotter.
58. Color Me Blood Red (1965) 5/10
Quite boring.
59. Die, Monster, Die! (1965) 5/10
Remarkably dull, my mind just kept wandering. It did have some nice sets though.

October 13
60. The Forgotten (1973) 6/10
Thought it was gonna be a trashy 'shock' flick, surprisingly decent - though held back by its obviously low budget.

October 14
61. Psychic Killer (1975) 5/10
Not too bad, but not a lot really happens.
62. Schalcken the Painter (1979) 5/10
Some of it was ok, but didn't like the narrator and it wasn't really that interesting.
63. El espanto surge de la tumba (1973) 4/10
Meh.
64. House of Whipcord (1974) 6/10
Ok, but a bit preachy and a bit long.
65. Der Todesking (1990) 6/10
Liked the first segment, but the rest were a bit uneven.
66. The Brøken (2008) 5/10
Just kept wondering why anything was happening. Needed to be tighter.

October 15
67. After Midnight (1989) 5/10
The beginning was the best part. Quite lame, bland stories.
68. Peur(s) du noir (2007) 5/10
Lovely animation, stupid stories.
69. Ha phraeng (2009) 7/10
Solid mix of stories. Not perfect, but some good stuff.
70. Incubus (1982) 5/10
Needed more polish, meatier story and better editing. Was a bit cheap and tacky.
71. The Final Girls (2015) 6/10
Ok, but not that funny or clever. They should've gone for an R rating.

October 16
72. Private Parts (1972) 4/10
Very boring and feels very long.
73. Grotesque (1988) 4/10
Total mess.
74. Bad Biology (2008) 4/10
The occasional line was funny, but overall it was dumb. First Henenlotter I haven't liked.
75. Awaiting (2015) 5/10
Seemed pointless and kind of went nowhere, but it was ok.
76. Rites of Spring (2011) 5/10
Very bland and boring with a silly script. But watchable because of AJ Bowen's pretty face.
77. Zombie Ninjas vs Black Ops (2015) 4/10
Low budget Aussie action film. Lame action scenes and a bland set of characters and script.

October 17
78. Amsterdamned (1988) 5/10
Not bad, but I just wasn't very interested.
79. Crawlspace (1986) 5/10
A few creepy Kinski scenes, but otherwise doesn't really go anywhere.
80. Neon Maniacs (1986) 6/10
Likable characters, cool looking creatures, but needed just a bit more action.
81. La main du diable (1943) 5/10
Very nicely shot, but by-the-numbers plot.
82. The Green Inferno (2013) 6/10
Like a more extreme version of the rain forest episode of South Park.
83. The Monster Club (1981) 6/10
Wish it wasn't an anthology film. The stuff with Vincent Price was the best. Great music too.
84. Julie Darling (1983) 6/10
Liked the girl who played Julie. Wish it had concentrated on the psychological aspects more, but decent thriller.

October 18
85. House of Mortal Sin (1976) 6/10
Likable set of characters and an interesting plot, though nothing exceptional.
86. Abby (1974) 5/10
Quite silly and poorly made, but somehow watchable.
87. The Borderlands (2013) 6/10
Nice build-up, but not much pay off until the very end.
88. La rose de fer (1973) 5/10
Decent attempt from Rollin, though not atmospheric enough for me.
89. Gutterballs (2008) 5/10
Nice gory stuff, surprisingly decent slasher (because it's genuinely disgusting).
90. Crimson Peak (2015) 7/10
Beautiful looking film. Some creepy stuff. Good performances, even though I hate Wasikowska and Chastain normally. And Hiddleston is beautiful.
91. Ich seh, Ich seh (2014) 6/10
Predictable and fairly shallow, but nicely acted and shot. Not a whole lot of tension or atmosphere though.

October 19
92. Jennifer's Body (2009) 4/10
Pretty bad. Not painfully bad. Just bad. Someone please shoot Diablo Cody.
93. Die Säge des Todes (1981) 5/10
A bit boring.
94. Yôkai hantâ: Hiruko (1991) 5/10
I liked its weirdness, but I didn't really like the film. I got quite bored, but I'm not sure why.

October 20
95. Blood & Donuts (1995) 6/10
Kind of goes nowhere, but a decent film and great music.
96. Habit (1995) 5/10
I don't really like Fessenden, but it was somewhat intriguing, just not that much.

October 21
97. The Offspring (1987) 4/10
Difficult to sit through. Really boring stories.
98. Il nido del ragno (1988) 5/10
Wtf
99. Seventh Moon (2008) 5/10
Started off ok, but terrible camerawork made me lose interest.

October 22
100. Chillerama (2011) 4/10
Really stupid, just a lot of poop and sex jokes. Music in second one was catchy though.
101. The Hills Run Red (2009) 4/10
Started off interesting, then became a generic bit of drivel.

October 23
102. The Devil's Carnival (2012) 4/10
Ugly film and pretty boring and pointless.
103. The Outing (1987) 4/10
Very dull. Horrible annoying characters.
104. The Dunwich Horror (1970) 5/10
Had some potential but it didn't really go anywhere.
105. The Watcher in the Woods (1980) 5/10
Also felt a bit random and pointless. Lead character was annoying as poop.
106. Death Weekend (1976) 6/10
Started off well, but the 'action' was lame. Interesting to see an actual strong female character.
107. Geung si (2013) 5/10
Nice visuals, but a chore to sit through. Needed more structure.
108. Circle (2015) 6/10
I love these premises but the films are almost always generic and do nothing new, but are entertaining. This was no different.

October 24
109. Pod (2015) 5/10
The talky stuff is not gripping enough and the pay-off is lame.
110. Bloodbath at the House of Death (1984) 7/10
Surprisingly funny, though weird.
111. Fright (1971) 5/10
Started off ok and was quit tense, but got stupid after the guy came in. Awful acting too.
112. La notte dei diavoli (1972) 4/10
Yawn.
113. Spasmo (1974) 4/10
Just dumb and dull.

October 25
114. Quicksilver Highway (1997) 4/10
Awful stories. I've read Chattering Teeth before and didn't think it was anything special then either.
115. Feardotcom (2002) 4/10
What a stupid movie.
116. Feed (2005) 5/10
Cool opening scene, interesting concept, O'Loughlin was good. That's about it.
117. Cybernatural (2014) 7/10
Didn't expect much, but uses the format well and is quite gripping. Flawed, but entertaining.
118. Kyûketsu Shôjo tai Shôjo Furanken (2009) 6/10
Fun and oddly amusing.
119. Stigmata (1999) 6/10
Kind of blah, but also moderately entertaining.
120. Strangeland (1998) 4/10
Dumb.
121. Howl (2015) 5/10
Meh.

October 26
122. Un tranquillo posto di campagna (1968) 4/10
What a drag.
123. Blood Feast 2: All U Can Eat (2002) 7/10
I don't like Blood Feast, but found this really funny.
124. The Initiation (1984) 5/10
Pretty lame.
125. Rogue River (2012) 5/10
Well, it had Bill Moseley and that was its redeeming feature.

October 27
126. Late Phases (2014) 5/10
Interesting lead, boring premise.

October 28
127. The Woods (2006) 5/10
Nothing new, quite bland.
128. Escalofrío (1978) 5/10
Don't even know wtf
129. Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead (1994) 5/10
Not a fan of Phantasm. This got better as it went on, but still just blah.

October 29
130. Rats - Notte di terrore (1984) 5/10
If it had better actors and scarier rats, could've been quite good.
131. The Werewolf (1956) 4/10
Typical 50s horror sci-fi, dull and pointless.
132. Horrors of the Black Museum (1959) 5/10
Little bit snappier than most from this period.

October 30
133. Hocus Pocus (1993) 4/10
Unfunny piece of poop.
134. Witchboard (1986) 6/10
Nothing amazing, but decent. Liked the relationship of the two dudes.
135. The Witches of Eastwick (1987) 5/10
Meh.
136. Simon, King of the Witches (1971) 6/10
Weird film. Andrew Prine was hot, so hello.

October 31
137. The Houses October Built (2014) 5/10
The found footage format seemed misused, characters were stupid and there wasn't much tension.
138. Night of the Demons (2009) 5/10
A bit by the numbers and the editing kinda sucked.
139. Ernest Scared Stupid (1991) 4/10
Not as bad as I expected, but still stupid. Good for kids though.
140. Redd Inc. (2012) 6/10
Liked the mystery aspect, but the film overall was a bit bland and the ending dragged.
141. Uncle Silas (1947) 5/10
Bland thriller.
142. I Was a Teenage Frankenstein (1957) 4/10
Typical 50s B-movie, some decent stuff, but mostly a drag.
143. Tales of Halloween (2015) 5/10
Mostly lame segments. Friday the 13st was kind of funny.

November 1
*144. Murder Party (2007) 9/10
Loved it even more this time around. The first 30 minutes are perfect, but it does drag a little in the middle.

Re: The 11th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/31) ***The List Threa

11th Annual Horror Movie Challenge



"We shall see that at which dogs howl in the dark, and that at which cats prick up their ears after midnight." ~ H.P. Lovecraft

*= first time viewing
blue= personal BluRay
black= personal DVD
green= streaming
orange= theatrical presentation
purple= borrowed or rented BD/DVD

September 30th (after dusk)
1. Carnival of Souls (Herk Harvey, 1962 / United States) --- Subset Film
--- 3/4: After surviving a horrific automobile accident, a woman starts seeing a ghoulish figure following her. To make matter worse, her reality begins to break down. It's creepy and satisfying with some great scenes - including a hellish ballroom dance.
2. A Nightmare on Elm Street (Wes Craven, 1984 / United States / Netflix Instant)*
--- 3.5/4: Nancy and her friends are being stalked and killed through their dreams by a sinister figure. This was my first time watching this film, and I may have to sleep with the light on.

October 1st
3. The Drums of Jeopardy (George B. Seitz, 1931 / United States / YouTube)*
--- 2.5/4: Dr. Boris Karlov (Warner Oland) seeks revenge on a family of Russian aristocrats who he believes were instrumental in his daughter's death. There's definitely a lot of early talkie camp - including a grumpy, comic relief aunt.
4. Gremlins (Joe Dante, 1984 / United States) --- Theme Night
--- 3.5/4: Randall Peltzer (Hoyt Axton) accidentally unleases murderous gremlins onto this idyllic hometown after improperly caring for his new pet. The film is infectiously funny yet still manages to have some creepy moments.
5. Gremlins 2: The New Batch (Joe Dante, 1990 / United States)* --- Theme Night
--- 2/4: Randall moves to New York City to work for a satirical conglomerate. He rescues Gizmo from Christopher Lee, and Sean Astin inadvertently creates a new batch of gremlins. Muddled and ridiculous.
6. The Quatermass Xperiment (Val Guest, 1955 / United Kingdom)*
--- 3/4: After a disastrous experiment in space exploration, an astronaut returns infected by an alien. He transforms into a murderous beast and rampages through Britain. Fun little science fiction/horror flick.

October 2nd
7. Phantom Ship (Denison Clift, 1935 / United Kingdom / YouTube)*
--- 2.5/4: A murderer stalks the crew of the Mary Celeste! Is it the volatile cabin? His lovely wife? The accordion player? Bela Legosi? It has some nice shots and scenes.
8. The City of the Dead (John Llewellyn Moxey, 1960 / United Kingdom / Amazon Prime) --- Theme Night
--- 3/4: Nan Barlow goes to a small New England town to write an academic paper on witchcraft. When she goes missing, her brother and sorta boyfriend go in search of her. Christopher Lee is awesome!
9. Mystery Science Theater 3000: 7.21, "The Beast of Yucca Flats" (1995 / United States / Shout!Factory TV)*
--- 3/4: Mike and the bots watch a silly movie about a Russian scientist transformed into a murderous beast. Their commentary was very funny.

October 3rd
10. Horror of Dracula (Terence Fisher, 1958 / United Kingdom) --- Theme Night
--- 3/4: Dracula (Christopher Lee) terrorizes a British family after Jonathan Harker attempts to kill him. Van Helsing (Peter Cushing) to the rescue! Hammer horror films are so deliciously macabre and garish!
11. The Wicker Man (Robin Hardy, 1973 / United Kingdom / GoogleDrive) --- Subset Film
--- 4/4: Christopher Lee plays Lord Summerisle, the lord of an island of pagans. When a police detective arrives to investigate a little girl's disappearance, he gets drawn into the ceremonies of the cult. Lee is magnificent with his eccentric hair and airs.
12. Sleepy Hollow (Tim Burton, 1999 / United States) --- Theme Night
--- 3.5/4: Detective Ichabod Crane (Johnny Depp) arrives in Sleepy Hollow to investigate a series of murders by decapitation. Christopher Lee has a minor role as a magistrate who is annoyed by Crane's modern ideas.
13. The Black Cat (Albert S. Rogell, 1941 / United States)*
--- 2/4: The family of an old lady gather, hoping she's shuffled off this mortal coil. Instead, a mysterious black cat shows up, and people start dying. Broderick Crawford's slapstick is much funnier than Hugh Herbert's shtick.

October 4th
14. Man Made Monster (George Waggner, 1941 / United States)*
--- 2.5/4: Lionel Atwill plays a mad scientist who turns poor Lon Chaney Jr. into a monster through electricity. Yes, it's silly, but everyone involved brings their all, making for a diverting little film.
15. The Day of the Triffids: Episodes 1-4 (Ken Hannam, 1981 / United Kingdom)* --- Theme Night
16a. The Day of the Triffids: Episodes 5-6 (Ken Hannam, 1981 / United Kingdom)* --- Theme Night
--- 2.5/4: During a meteorite shower, most of the world's population goes blind, and to make matters worse, large carnivorous plants stalk humanity. The miniseries follows Bill, a sighted scientist who must deal with plants, disease, and survivors.
16b. Ghost Hunt: 1.1, "File 1: Evil Spirits All Over!? - Part 1" / 1.2, "Evil Spirits All Over!? - Part 2" (2006 / Japan)*
--- A young Japanese schoolgirl assists a young paranormal investigator as he looks into a haunted school. A group of supernatural experts arrive to assist, including a snide priestess, her apostate lackey, an very young exorcist, and a waif medium.
17. Tales of Terror (Roger Corman, 1962 / United States)*
--- 3.5/4: Vincent Price stars in three adaptations of Edgar Allan Poe stories. My favorite has him playing a pretentious wine taster who falls for Peter Lorre's wife. Macabre and garish in true Corman fashion.
18. Horror Island (George Waggner, 1941 / United States)*
--- 2.5/4: A man in desperate need of money leads a motley group of tourists to his creepy island on a fake treasure hunt. However, they are menaced by a phantom out for real treasure. Breezy fun.

October 5th
19. Tucker and Dale vs. Evil (Eli Craig, 2010 / Canada / Netflix Instant)*
--- 3.5/4: Two affable hillbillies rescuer a girl from drowning and are confused when a group of teenagers attempt to attack them. Miscommunications ensue. Absolutely brilliant satire of horror tropes and expectations.
20. Zombies of Mass Destruction (Kevin Hamedani, 2009 / United States) --- Subset Film
--- 3/4: When a small island community is overrun by zombies, a college dropout and two gay guys have to fend off the walking dead as well as survivors who are sure they are the cause. While a bit heavy-handed in the commentary department, there are some fun moments and nice zombie effects.

October 6th
21. Man in the Attic (Hugo Fregonese, 1953 / United States / YouTube)*
--- 2/4: Jack Palance plays a mysterious lodger who may or may not be Jack the Ripper. It's a rather standard little film. The best scenes feature Rhys Williams and Frances Bavier as the landlords.
22. The Thing from Another World (Christian Nyby, 1951 / United States / DailyMotion) --- Theme Night
--- 3.5/4: Military officers and scientists are marooned at the North Pole with a murderous alien. They clash over how to handle the situation. It's a tense film, but hamstrung by changes made in the story.
23. Pontypool (Bruce McDonald, 2008 / Canada / Netflix Instant) --- Theme Night
--- 3/4: A shock jock and his producer are caught on the front lines of an apparent zombie attack into which people get caught in gibberish and become violent. The film takes place in the isolation of a radio station which really ratchets up the tension.
24. The Thing (John Carpenter, 1982 / United States) --- Theme Night
--- 4/4: A group of scientists are trapped on Antarctica with a shapeshifting, murderous alien. Paranoia sets in! This is one of my favorite horror films.

October 7th
25. Cthulhu (Dan Gildark, 2007 / United States)* --- Theme Night
--- 2.5/4: A college professor goes home to attend his mother's funeral and gets drawn in my a former flame and his father's enigmatic cult. It's an interesting little exercise exploring sexuality and Lovecraftian themes.
26. 13 Ghosts (William Castle, 1960 / United States)*
--- 2/4: A family moves into a house after inheriting it, only to find that it's inhabited by ghosts. It made me think of Leave It to Beaver. Castle gimmicked it up with special glasses to see the ghosts.
27. The Fog (John Carpenter, 1980 / United States)
--- 3/4: One the anniversary of Antonio Bay's founding, it's citizens are menaced by a ship of vengeful ghosts that come from an mysterious fog bank. Carpenter's ghost story is a slow, ponderous burn, and I dig it.

October 8th
28. Frankenstein Created Woman (Terence Fisher, 1967 / United Kingdom)*
--- 2/4: Baron Frankenstein is up to his old tricks again. This time he experiments to extract the soul from a deceased body and put it into another. It's pretty standard Hammer fare.
29. The Omen (Richard Donner, 1976 / United States)
--- 4/4: An ambassador and his wife begin to suspect that their son is evil. The cast is rounded out by a couple of priests, a persistent paparazzi, and a formidable nanny. Excellent, chilling film.

October 9th
30. The Last Man on Earth (Ubaldo Ragona, 1964 / United States / YouTube)*
--- 3/4: Vincent Price is the titular last man after a plague kills everyone and turns them into undead zombie-vampires. The film deals with his psychological problems after losing his family as well as his daily routines.
31. Billy the Kid vs. Dracula (William Beaudine, 1966 / United States / YouTube)*
--- 1/4: My first truly bad film of the challenge. John Carradine menaces the old West as the least menacing, charismatic vampire. He also turns into a rubber bat.
32. Shaun of the Dead (Edgar Wright, 2004 / United Kingdom) --- Theme Night
--- 4/4: Shaun and his best friend Ed are slackers who find themselves in the midst of a zombie apocalypse. They decide to rescue Shaun's family and girlfriend and hole up in their favorite bar. I love this film quite a bit.

October 10th
33. The Old Dark House (William Castle, 1963 / United States)* --- Theme Night
--- 1.5/4: An American car salesman visits a friend only to find him dead and has to contend with his bizarre family. It's nonsensical, and I greatly prefer the 1930s version.
34. Horror Express (Eugenio Martin, 1972 / United Kingdom / YouTube)* --- Subset Film
--- 2.5/4: Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing team up when a terrible monster is unleashed on a Russian train. There's a spy, an engineer, some aristocrats, and a mad monk that are also along for the ride.
35. Night Monster (Ford Beebe, 1942 / United States)*
--- 2.5/4: Another scary house movie with Bela Lugosi. You would think I'd get tired of these, but I don't.
36. Captive Wild Woman (Edward Dmytryk, 1943 / United States)*
--- 2/4: John Carradine is a crazy doctor who wants to do something to make animals into people or something. There's some pretty women and a lot of uncomfortable cruelty to animals. Down with circuses.
Short: The X-Ray Fiend (George Albert Smith, 1897 / United Kingdom / 1 min.)
Short: Les trésors de satan (Georges Méliès, 1902 / France / 3 mins.)

October 11th
37. The Monster Squad (Fred Dekker, 1987 / United States / Netflix Instant)*
--- 2/4: Preteens fight all the Universal monsters. This is a bit of 80s cheese that I should have watched when I was a kid. I think I would have a stronger appreciation for it if I had.
38. The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (Robert Wiene, 1920 / Germany)
--- 4/4: An intense young man investigates Dr. Caligari and a somnambulist who may have killed his friend. The film achieves a dreamlike state that keeps the story ambiguous. One of my favorite films.
39. New Nightmare (Wes Craven, 1994 / United States / Netflix Instant)* --- Theme Night
--- 3/4: Great meta flick that has Freddy coming into the real world and terrorizing Heather Langenkamp. It's pretty awesome!
40. Buffy the Vampire Slayer: 1.1, "Welcome to the Hellmouth" / 1.2, "The Harvest" (1997 / United States)

October 12th
41. Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles (Neil Jordan, 1994 / United States)

Movies
1. Dog Soldiers (2002 - BD - own it - ****1/2): Horrible new transfer from Scream Factory.

+3. Zombies Of Mass Destruction (2009 - DVD - Netflix - **1/2): Tired. The movie. Not me.
+4. Cold Prey (2006 - DVD - Netflix - ***): decent TCM rip-off with less interesting killer.
5. Carnival Of Souls (1962 - DVD - own it - **): Yeah it has good atmosphere and a good ending but damn is it slow.

20. Eden Lake (2008 - BD - own it - ****1/2): Perfect "what would you do in this situation" movie with a great ending.\
+21. Dracula Sucks (1979 - Roku - Exploitation.TV - *1/2): Serious adaptation of Dracula with some adult (porn) scenes and porn stars. Nowhere near as good as it sounds.

+49. Project: Metalbeast (1995 - DVR - DirectTV - *): Great title, terrible movie.
+50. Bloodrayne: The Third Reich (2011 - DVR - DirectTV - *1/2): Nice boobies/lesbian scenes but not much else.

+65. Black Sheep (2006 - DVD - Netflix - *1/2): Good effects don't save this lame horror comedy.
66. Humanoids From The Deep (1980 - BD - own it - ***1/2): Old fashioned monster movie but with tits!
67. Society (1989 - BD - own it - ***1/2): The ending is just a mind-fuck.
68. The Re-Animator: Integral Version (1985 - BD - own it - ***1/2): First time for me to see this version. Pretty good but it definitely slows the pace down.
+69. Scared Topless (2013 - DirectTV - DVR - **1/2): Perfect choice for #69. T&A flick with tons of nudity. watch it for the...ahem...ecto-plasm scene.

September viewings:
Spoiler:
I wanted to start early so any horror I watch in September will count as a negative and I will not count it toward my October tally.

+ = first time viewing
All rating are out of 5 stars

Movies
+ -1. Bikini Swamp Girl Massacre (2014 - Streaming - Amazon Prime - 1/2 a star): Just awful. No good nudity. No good gore. Acting is horrible. Story is horrible. Avoid.
+ -2. Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey Of Richard Stanley's Island Of Dr. Moreau (2014 - Streaming - Netflix - ****): Very interesting documentary but it ended with more questions than answers. I know it was just about Stanley but I felt they could have added another hour easy to include the rest of the production.
+ -3. A Serbian Film (2010 - Streaming - Youtube - **1/2): Wanted to see this just because of the controversy. Yeah, this film can be replusive but I found it more ludicrous than reality. Some parts were so dumb and over the top that I found this was more a dark comedy than a true to life drama. It definintely has some repulsive parts in it though.
-4. Piranha (2010 - BD - Own it - ****1/2): The more I see this movie the more I love it. Just so ridiculous but fun. This is the way to do a stupid horror film!
+ -5. Mondo Cannibal (2004 - Streaming - Exploitation.TV via Roku - *1/2): Basically a complete copy of Cannibal Holocaust without the grindhouse feel and worse effects.
+ -6. Mother Of Tears (2007 - DVD - Netflix - **1/2): Some decent gore and tits but dull story.
+ -7. The Midnight Meat Train (2008 - BD - Netflix - ***): Gory buy silly horror film. Fun but dumb.

Television
+ -.25. Tales From The Darkside (1984 - DVD - own it - **1/2): Season 1, episode 7: "Slippage"
+ -.50 Tales From The Darkside (1984 - DVD - own it - ****): Season 1, episode 8: "Inside The Closet" - first really creepy episode for this series.
+ -.75 Tales From The Darkside (1984 - DVD - own it - ***1/2): Season 1, episode 1: "Trick Or Treat" w/ commentary by George Romero - The episode is good but the commentary is lackluster.
-1.25 Masters Of Horror (2005 - BD - own it - ****1/2): Season 1, Episode 4: "Jenifer" - just a really creepy short. I like how it explains nothing but still remains interesting.
-1.75 Masters Of Horror (2005 - BD - own it - ***1/2): Season 1, Episode 5: "Sick Girl" - another creepy one. But I also hate bugs.
-2.25 Masters Of Horror (2005 - BD - own it - ***): Season 1, Episode 6: "Deer Woman" - more funny than scary or creepy. It doesn't resolve itself very well.
+ -2.75 Hammer House Of Horror (1980 - DVD - own it - ***1/2): Episode 1: "Witching Time" - nice creepy story about a witch who travels to the future and won't leave.
+ -3.0 Tales From The Crypt (1989 - DVD - own it - ***): Season 1, Episode 1: "The Man Who Was Death" - nothing special first episode. A death penalty executioner gets his.
+ -3.25 Tales From The Crypt (1989 - DVD - own it - ***): Season 1, Episode 2: "And All Through The House" - played more for laughs than horror. Benny from L.A. Law plays a crazed Santa.
+ -3.5 The Ray Bradbury Theater (1985 - DVD - own it - **1/2): Season 1, Episode 1: "The Crowd" - nothing special
+ -3.75 The Ray Bradbury Theater (1985 - DVD - own it - ***): Season 1, Episode 2: "Marionettes, Inc." - funny how lack of privacy scared people in the 80's. Facebook has made them immune nowadays.
-4. Masters Of Horror (2005 - BD - own it - **): Season 1, Episode 1: "Cigarette Burns" - lame. Minor buildup with no payoff.
-4.5 Masters Of Horror (2005 - BD - own it - ***1/2): Season 1, Episode 2: "Dreams In The Witchhouse" - kept my interest.
-5 The Fair-Haired Child (2005 - BD - own it - ***)

01. Carnival of Souls [Theatrical cut] (1962, 78 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Despite some slow pacing I love the creepy imagery and 'twist' in Carnival of Souls the organ score is perfect and helps maintain a sense of ethereal paranoia. Format: Streaming [Hulu]. Theme Subset
02. Valerie and Her Week of Wonders (1970, 73 minutes) ★★★★½✰✰✰✰✰ I enjoyed Valerie before so maybe I just wasn't in the mood for something so surreal but this time it seemed to drag despite some cool imagery and tone. Format: Streaming [Hulu]. Theme

October 1 [Bigfoot or Small Creatures theme night] (4 hours, 35 minutes watched)
03. Night of the Demon [uncut] (1980, 92 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ There's a lot happening in this film - campfire stories, slasher staples, bigfoot, cults, etc and despite some zaniness and dated music it never gets past 'mediocre.' I did like the last third more. Format: Streaming [Youtube]. 1st Viewing Theme Subset
04. Blood Beach (1980, 92 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ much better than I expected with a great concept that makes good use of Burt Young and John Saxon and has an ironic beach horror theme with good 80s vibe. Format: Streaming [Youtube]. 1st Viewing
05. Killer Fish (1979, 101 minutes) ★★★½✰✰✰✰✰✰ An ambitious heist movie that ultimately feels too over long and slow with a disappointing under use of killer fish. Format: Blu-ray. Theme
06. Houses That October Built (2014, 91 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Obnoxious characters and shaky cam haunted house emulation provide an interesting context for meta horror that tries to mystify 'haunted house' attractions in a clever way, it feels like there's more substance than the thin characters of attempts at visceral 'scares' immediately show. Format: Blu-ray. First time

October 2 [Hotel theme night] (6 hours, 21 minutes watched)
07. Hotel Fear [aka Pensione Paura] (1977, 96 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ Moody and dramatic for much of it's run time with some over the top characters making the film feel like a dark comedy at times and a giallo others; things come together in the last third and it successfully balances a hodge podge of different genres to surreal effect. Format: Streaming [Youtube]. 1st Viewing Theme
08. The Strange Hostel of Naked Pleasures [aka A Estranha Hospedaria dos Prazeres] (1976, 81 minutes) ★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Oddly psychadelic fluff fills much of the playtime, with the first third being unstructured pretentious philosophy musings and the rest being barely an idea stretched way too thin and blandly executed... Format: Streaming [Youtube]. 1st Viewing Theme
09. Hotel Transylvania (2012, 91 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ A spirited family film with lots of monster action and a nice party vibe. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet]. Theme
10. The Happiness of the Katakuris (2001, 113 minutes) ★★★★★★★½✰✰ Relentlessly creativity, aimless in parts and at times too over the top but the kinetic antics kept things moving nicely. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing Theme Subset

October 3 [RIP Christopher Lee theme night] (9 hours, 33 minutes watched)
11. The Wicker Man [The Final Cut] (1975, 91 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Maintains an eerie cult atmosphere and has a nice twist - some of the religious commentary seems played for shocks and pagan stuff over blow, it works but seems over-rated as a cult classic. Format: Blu-ray. Theme Subset
12. Horror Express (1973, 91 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Better than I expected with an awesomely cheesy monster and cool train setting, horror legends Lee and Crushing seem more subdued but a lot of fun with unexpected gore. Format: Blu-ray. Theme Subset
13. Hotel Transylvania 2 (2015, 89 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Better than the first with less kinetic musical flow and more musings about how classic horror tropes fail in modern settings including a fun vampire showdown. Format: Theatrical. 1st Viewing
14. Dr Terror's House of Horrors (1965, 98 minutes) ★★★★½✰✰✰✰✰ Varied anthology series with bleak vibe but some stories feel abrupt and some ironic twists pail compared to other 'tales from the crypt' style stuff Format: Streaming [Amazon]. 1st Viewing Theme Subset
15. Dark Shadows (2012, 113 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Not familiar with the soap opera I enjoyed the gothic horror and humor mix but it stumbled biting off more than it could digest including a corporate takeover that seems to go nowhere and a villian showdown that feels too matter of fact. Epic Alice Cooper cameo still doesn't justify some of the loose ends. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet]. 1st Viewing Theme
16. Howling II (1986, 91 minutes) ★½✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Despite some cool ideas poor production values and sporadic editing make it a pain to sit through Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing Theme

October 4 [Television Movie / Mini-series theme night] (5 hours, 48 minutes watched)
17. Creature [Night 1] (1988, 90 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Mostly build-up setting up a far fetched premise but hit some nostalgic notes with me with it's 1990s style flare. Slower paced, but most TV miniseries come with some fluff. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing Theme
18. Creature [Night 2] (1988, 88 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Part 2 hits the ground running with more action and better showcasing the epic practical effects creature; some of the plot reveals seem abrupt but otherwise I enjoyed it. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing Theme
19. Cast a Deadly Spell (1991, 96 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Zany with enjoyable special effects and a fun 'noir' feel but the elsewheres magic filled 1940s and instance on somehow claiming the lead IS Lovecraft feels odd. Format: Streaming [Youtube]. 1st Viewing Theme
20. Bad Ronald (1974, 74 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ The general premise is really creepy but there's so much set-up maneuvering to get there that it feels awkward. They did a good job of making a sympathetic villain pulling in low key humor and horror elements. Format: Streaming [Daily Motion]. 1st Viewing Theme Subset

October 5 [Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, or Transgender theme night] (8 hours, 23 minutes watched)
21. Zombies of Mass Destruction (2010, 89 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Some awkward commentary, especially early on, I can't tell if I appreciate it's attempt to be more relevent or found it preachy and slightly dated. Ultimately there was liberal amounts of fake blood and the film seemed to get funnier as it progressed. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX]. 1st Viewing Theme Subset
22. Sleepaway Camp II (1988, 80 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Credit for following a wild twist from the first and handles things with some humor, much more transparent that typical slashers. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing Theme
23. The Last Horror Show (1982, 87 minutes) ★★★★★★★★✰✰ Brilliant meta horror with sharp commentary on celebrity glitz and some fun humor that works well. Format: Streaming [Youtube]. 1st Viewing
24. Creep (2014, 82 minutes) ★★★½✰✰✰✰✰✰ An ambitious premise staggering between awkward social comedy and malicious taunts feels too inconsistent with some baffling plot that targets dark humor more than horror and falls a little flat. Format: Streaming [Netflix]. 1st Viewing
25. The Pit and The Pendulum (1961, 80 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Great gothic 'victorian' feel with atmospheric setting and a suspenseful mystery. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing
26. Parasite (1982, 85 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Randomly picked this off Youtube but found it really enjoyable, out there enough to be fun despite a lot of cheesiness. Format: Streaming [Youtube]. 1st Viewing

October 6 [Snow theme night] (6 hours, 22 minutes watched)
27. Cold Prey [aka Fritt Vilt] (2006, 97 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ Once the necessary setup gets over with Cold Prey is nicely suspenseful with good character development and a mysterious adversary set in an atmospheric snowscape. Format: Streaming [Youtube]. Theme Subset
28. Dead Snow 2: Red Vs Dead (2014, 100 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ An absurd comedy filled with over the top kinetic gags to the point of near collapse; much better than the over rated crap that the first installment was (1 gave too little to late). I enjoyed Dead Snow 2 more than I expected. Format: Streaming [Netflix]. 1st Viewing Theme
29. Seizure (1974, 94 minutes) ★★★½✰✰✰✰✰✰ Despite some potentially cool surreal villains the execution didn't feel suspenseful and while I wanted to like some of the plot it didn't hold together well, it seemed to adventure oriented without enough thrills or intensity. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing
30. Wendingo (2002, 91 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Different than I expected, more subtle. I liked the native american vibe and odd unstructured paranoia plot. Filled with too much stop motion and too little plot it might not be for everyone but what moodiness. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing Theme

October 7 [Based On a Book theme night] (11 hours, 49 minutes watched)
31. The Mist (2007, 126 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Over rated but still an atmospheric movie with strange imagery and good tension. The religious extremism subplot drags the film because it pushes too far and I think the ending is inconsistent to the point of blunting the film. Format: Blu-ray. Theme Subset
32. The Slayer (1982, 80 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Like an amped up episode of Twilight Zone combining a surreal sci fi style plot with slasher tropes, lulls a little in the middle but overall good. Format: Streaming [Youtube]. 1st Viewing
33. The Curse (1987, 92 minutes) ★★★★★★★★✰✰ A stand out so far this challenge with an abstract plot and bizzare imagery. Format: Streaming [Youtube]. 1st Viewing Theme
34. Lord of Illusion [Director's Cut] (1995, 121 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ A personal favorite of mine; the fantasy tale of 'magicians, etc' is ethereal with nice noir elements and an unconventional plot. Format: Blu-ray. Theme
35. The Squad (2011, 102 minutes) ★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Argentinian soldiers run around an empty building arguing with one another feels like a poor man's Dog Soldiers, Outpost, etc with less of a hook. The plot is ambitious trying to balance paranoia but it too subtle with such limited basis it falls flat; it could have benefited from a shorter tighter run time.Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing
36. Whisperer In Darkness (2011, 103 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Some questionable acting and not as good as Call of Cthulhu but has a nice sense of mystery with early technology man looking into on the otherworldly. Does a good job showing Lovecraft imagery on a low budget without looking cheesy. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing Theme
37. The Shrine (2011, 85 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Some scary imagery breaks up the poor acting and questionable character motivation; the ending is interesting if you are looking for a b indie film with all it's low budget flaws. Format: Streaming [Netflix]. 1st Viewing Theme

October 8 [Featuring Eyes theme night] (11 hours, 48 minutes watched)
38. Starry Eyes (2014, 98 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Depends too much on a histrionic and flawed main character that is hard to sympathize with, and some of the implied criticism of 'hollywood' seems strange since seemingly most people can't relate - there's some nice gore and the premise hints at something cooler than is shown here. Format: Streaming [Netflix]. 1st Viewing Theme
39. The Editor (2014, 95 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ Amped up hyper stylized giallo with meta awareness interweaving plot and 'film within the film' elements; sometimes over the top, occasionally poorly acted, and some humor is hit/miss but overall fun. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing Theme
40. Morituris: Legions of the Dead (2011, 86 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Weirdly mean spirited in a sort of torture porn backwoods slasher way, I liked that some of it pushed the envelope more even if it was too bleak at times. Feels like two movies because it shifts focus mid-film, but that happens in a way I think questions some genre conventions by showing degrees of 'evil' - not sure if that's reading too much into it. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing
41. Lost After Dark (2014, 85 minutes) ★★★★½✰✰✰✰✰ Too straight forward to be as interesting with a villain that feels more like a shadow of better slasher staples; cute in it's homage to 80s horror with some cool cartoonish imagery (stranded schoolbus) but doesn't like up to it's predecessor in part because it seems too self aware to be convincingly thrilling and because it takes a while to get to the 'good stuff'. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing
42. The Ruins (2008, 90 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Follows with the book well (but changed the ending) to present a novel plot in a relentless and tight manner. I wanted a film that wasn't as visually dark and this delivers some great scenes.Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing
43. V/H/S Viral (2014, 81 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ It's like they just discovered video filters and had to try them all - otherwise not as strong as prior entries but still fun... nothing really excels and several segments feel subpar relaying too much on unlikeable characters or twists that aren't chilling. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing
44. Eyes Without a Face (1962, 90 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Offer some interesting themes with an unconventional plot and some ghastly surgical scenes but otherwise falls flat when it tries to be a more conventional thriller. Format: Streaming [Netflix]. Theme Subset
45. Scarecrows (1988, 83 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ Much better than one would expect with some gruesome twists on slasher tropes and a go for broke bank heist paramilitary paranoia thriller that doesn't pull any punches - schlocky fun. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing

October 9 [Zombie theme night] (13 hours, 36 minutes watched)
46. Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead (2014, 98 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ Filled with morbid zaniness and some silly over the top plot points that work in such a kinetic environment. There's a lot of spaghetti western style eye/face closeups and a lot of staged action choreography and it's so absurd and high spirited everything works. Format: Blu-ray. 1st Viewing Theme Subset
47.. Zombeavers (2015, 77 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Slow and corny for much of it's run time the epic last third makes it worth seeing. Format: Streaming [Netflix]. 1st Viewing Theme
48. Raw Force [aka Kung Fu Cannibals] (1982, 86 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ A fantasy adventure winner filled with all assortments of creepy mons, kung fu, boobs, firefights, zombies, pirates, etc; an unbelievable but effective hodge podge of stuff. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
49. Burying the Ex (2014, 89 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Fun horror comedy that's got less 'frat humor' and more retro horror references with more romantic comedy elements. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
50. The Battery (2012, 101 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Unconventional zombie film with aimless moodiness that goes on for perhaps too long but has some interesting twists and well developed characters with a dramatic tone. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Subset
51. Unfriended (2014, 83 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Ultimately more straight forward than I expected despite occurring entirely in a chat/skype setting, a cute idea with interesting focus on social dynamics but not as scary as it could have been. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] 1st Viewing
52. Under the Bed (2013, 87 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Atmospheric playing on childhood fears with an action adventure vibe that works despite some awkward 'family drama' subplots. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing
53. Sugar Hill (1974, 91 minutes) ★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Disappointing given it's reputation, it seemed uninteresting and despite zombies too matter a fact in being a revenge movie without as much style as I'd hoped for... mostly camp. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
54. The Harvest (2013, 104 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Predictable with uneven acting and some unbelievable over the top elements. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme

October 10 [European theme night] (4 hours, 34 minutes watched)
55. House By the Cemetery (1984, 87 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Slow paced saved only by some effective gore, not one of Fulchi's best. Format: Streaming [Hulu] Theme Subset
56. Black Sunday (1960, 87 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Atmospheric and moody Format: Bu-ray Theme
57. Daughters of Darkness (1971, 100 minutes) ★★★★★★★★✰✰ A personal favorite, slow burn vampire film with some complexity. Format: Blu-ray Theme Subset

October 11 [Wes Craven theme night] (6 hours, 59 minutes watched)
58. Last House on the Left (1974, 84 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Mean spirited with odd comedy elements and few scenes that really feel intense; ultimately falls flat, it doesn't seem that ironic or interesting and seems to miss opportunities at subtext. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
59. The Mummy's Hand (1940, 67 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Effective character actors help this one along, possibly better than the first - which didn't strike me. Format: DVD 1st Viewing
60. Vampire In Brooklyn (1995, 100 minutes) ★★★½✰✰✰✰✰✰ Eddie Murphy walks around with a horribly fake accent trying to be scary, credit for trying to update the Vampire mytho but it doesn't really work here (Dracula 2000 was better). Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
61. House of Frankenstein (1944, 71 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ All over the place and feels like it tries to cram too much into a short run time. Format: DVD
62. Cursed [Theatrical] (2005, 97minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ One of Craven's better more recent films despite spotty CGI and some cringeworthy scenes. It's got some clever homages and nice action scenes. Format: Blu-ray Theme

October 12 [1990/1965 Anniversary theme night] (13 hours, 24 minutes watched)
63. Housebound (2014, 107 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Zany film that moves from one premise to another with a subtle british comedy. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing
64. The Canal (2014, 92 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Gritty movie with nice hallucinatory imagery and several twists; surprisingly good. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing
65. Shocker (1989, 110 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Fast paced but sometimes hammy and too over the top with a great villain and some cool imagery. Dumb fun.Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing
66. Nightbreed [Director's Cut] (1990, 120 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ Nice mix of fantasy and horror with some great action scenes, some of the flaws were more obvious in my second viewing. Format: Blu-ray Theme Subset
67. Living Doll (1990, 94 minutes) ★★★½✰✰✰✰✰✰ Bleak and moody with a dated 90s style and some weirdness (random old lady landlords), creepy but illogical and I've seem better similar films. Format: DVD 1st Viewing Theme
68. Them [aka Ils] (2006, 77 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Not as tense as I'd hoped (maybe I'm jaded), I liked the ending but otherwise average. Format: Streaming [Hulu] 1st Viewing Theme
69. Repulsion (1965, 105 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ A classic with great imagery and subtle tension. Format: Blu-ray Theme
70. The First Power (1990, 99 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Good blend of noir police procedural and mystical satanic antics that was better than I expected with a fast pacing and over the top plot. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme

October 12 [Attics/Basements theme night] (10 hours, 28 minutes watched)
71. Superstition (1982, 85 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ The trailer is a letdown but Superstition is a 'go for broke' witch film with slasher elements and some amusing historical footage; just the right amount of cheesy and gorey.Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
72. As Above So Below (2014, 93 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰ I'd hear mixed things about it but really enjoyed it myself, it felt fresh and while some moments were too 'tomb raider' adventure game-y it had likeable characters, good twists, an epic setting, and nice imagery... also I really liked the ending. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] 1st Viewing
73. The Babdook (2014, 93 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰ Compelling acting with an unusual premise and great stagings sell this well. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme Subset
74. Nomads (1986, 93 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Horrible fake accents and random musical flashbacks be damned, Nomads has a clever concept that works despite the unusual editing and story structure. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing
75. Catacombs (1988, 84 minutes) ★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Horribly boring filled with odd debate on fake monastary practices then fumbles delivering too little too late. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing
76. The Drownsman (2014, 88 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Creative premise allowing for unusual staging and tension; some efforts to over explain things are awkward and it's got overly dark scenes that are distracting but pretty great for a lower budget horror film even if it occasionally seems like the musical cues are overselling scenes let down by lower production values. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing
77. Idle Hands (1999, 92 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Cartoonish comedy that takes horror to outlandish levels with hit and miss results; has some cool cartoonish cinematography but the 'stoner comedy' feels pretentious and drags the films down some. Format: Blu-ray Subset

October 14 [Police theme night] (5 hours, 39 minutes watched)
78. Psycho Cop (1989, 87 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Aimless slasher film salvaged some by a cool villain with creepy acting, has a nostalgic late night 90s tv feel but otherwise not great. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
79. Psycho Cop Returns (1993, 85 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ More interesting setting than the first with better pacing even if Psycho Cop doesn't seem as creepy here; really cheesy with dated sexism, all the female characters are literally strippers, and there are more awful one liners. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
80. Wolf Cop (2014, 79 minutes) ★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Lacking bravado action or witty homage that you would expect from a title like this it slumps into an awkward invented mythology and seems to bask in the most shallow representation of having a werewolf cop (which is not necessarily any funnier than a werewolf in any other profession). Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
81. Hospital of Terror [aka Nurse Sherri] (1978, 88 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Surreal low grade production mixing possession and light exploitation elements with awful effects and inconsistent acting; a 70s time capsule but all the actors seem zonked out and they sure do spend a lot of time talking in hallways - Nurse Sherri does good crazy eyes. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing

October 15 [Anthology theme night] (6 hours, 6 minutes watched)
82. Screamtime (1986, 89 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Anthology series with sly British humor mixed with traditional horror gags to surprisingly good effect resulting in some stuff that's simultaneously cheesy and effectively creepy. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme Subset
83. Dead Girls (2014, 91 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Has a indie feel to it and while segments are lukewarm at best it gets points for feeling more surreal in it's low budget charm. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
84. The Vault of Horror [Uncut] (1973, 87 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Nicely varied stories with devious twists, this variety of moral tale schlock needs to make a comeback. By today's standards it feels more muted (especially given how relatively amped up the HBO Tales From the Crypt stuff was] but it hit the right notes with me. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
85. From a Whisper To a Scream [aka The Offspring] (1987, 99 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Weaker wraparound segment but some nicely intense scenes with unexpectedly gory imagery. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme

October 16 [Crazy Love theme night] (7 hours, 26 minutes watched)
86. Don't Panic (1988, 90 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Ackward adult child actor contributes to some 'so bad it's good' moments and the makers seem set on embeding religious parallels into their plot; not horrible but unoriginal and needed better actors. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
87. Next of Kin (1982, 89 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Slow burn with a surreal atmosphere that doesn't have much of a "hook" early on but has a rewarding payoff, conducted with some artsy style that works. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing
88. Honeymoon (2014, 87 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Really slow with characters that don't seem to have much chemistry and a strangely horny one dimensional male lead that redeems itself with a masterful ending although some might find it too little too late. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
89. The Taking of Deborah Logan (2014, 90 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Overly ambitious trying really hard to throw a bunch of stuff at the viewer; some moments are killed by characters awkwardly trying to cuss out threats - mediocre. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
90. Last Shift (2014, 90 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Lead actor could use better acting and this film seems to just throw mid-grade production 'scary' images one after another to a fault. Format: DVD [Redbox] 1st Viewing

October 17 [Vestron Video theme night] (4 hours, 14 minutes watched)
91. Rocktober Blood (1988, 90 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Filled with a musical soundtrack and some nicely dated 80s scenery it lulls in the middle and has an ending that doesn't make a lot of sense; I found better than it deserves to be thanks to some nostalgic appreciation for it's cheesiness. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
92. Manos: The Hands of Fate (1966, 74 minutes) ★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ An odd mix of incompetence and stage presence with an overly wordy script that I can see the 'so bad it's good' cult appear for but other than as a party movie not great. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing
93. Sweet Sixteen (1983, 90 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ A hillbilly whodunnit that explores prejudice with a telegraphed ending. Format: Blu-ray Theme

October 18 [Church Setting theme night] (7 hours, 52 minutes watched)
94. Don't Deliver Us From Evil (1971, 102 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Mean spirited but artistic that seems to push viewers into exploring the dark wild fantasies of needy young girls who push the limits of plausibility, overlong in parts. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
95. Scooby-Doo! and Kiss: Rock and Roll Mystery (2015, 72 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ I'm not a fan of Kiss' odd self promotion but this was a lot of fun with zany cartoon antics some of which were surprisingly psychadelic and amped up the expected Scooby Doo format nicely. Format: DVD [Redbox] 1st Viewing Theme
96. Rawhead Rex (1986, 89 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Despite the dated effects there's enough of the unexpected and a unique enough villain that it comes together nicely at the conclusion. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
97. Omen IV: The Awakening (1991, 100 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Plays to immediately into the 'this kid is just so evil because of other movies' business that it doesn't set things up well enough and just piles on the body count in an oddly subdued manner focusing more on just death as being scary without building suspense enough until near the middle, probably better than any 4th sequel deserves to be if still not great. Format: DVD Theme
98. Stigmata (1999, 109 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Preachy to a fault but with some nice gore effects and a music video style stage setting that is sometimes unintentionally funny - works on some levels but that defies explanation. Format: Blu-ray Theme

October 19 [School Setting theme night] (7 hours, 35 minutes watched)
99. Death Bell (2008, 88 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Odd mix of supernatural and mild torture porn about kids locked in a school with an adversary, nicely executed but confusing in spots. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
100. Death Bell 2: Bloody Camp (2010, 90 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ More streamlined than the original with darker settings, despite some plot holes it's fun and seems to exist mostly to justify different scenarios. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
101. Murderlust (1985, 88 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Killer's perspective thriller with an interesting mix of mundane and murder from a charismatic lead and a some amusingly stereotypical killer tropes that, paired with the ironic self awareness of knowing the killer, give it a slight comedic familiar vibe (windowless van, garbage cans, unassuming public persona, etc). There's some amateurish acting in spots and many killings are off camera but that gives it a strange dated 'made for tv' type of feel. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing
102. Ring of Curse (2011, 94 minutes) ★★★½✰✰✰✰✰✰ 'Japanese pop' is the perfect way to describe it; it's a slightly bloodier Goosebumps style teenie bopper horror spin on 'The Ring' - not good, but not horrible. It doesn't add much new to the 'ringu' sub-genre (if there is such a thing) but does have an unusual plot structure.. Format: Streaming [Netflix] Theme
103. Dance of the Dead (2008, 95 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Fun character centered horror comedy with energetic zombies and some over the top hit or miss sight gags, some of the effects look cheaper than I remember. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] Theme Subset

October 20 [Vampire theme night] (5 hours, 10 minutes watched)
104. A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night (2014, 107 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ Slow and aimless but with good visual artistry infused with musical score, occasionally borders on pretentious but uniquely surreal. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme Subset
105. Byzantium (2012, 118 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Moody mix of historical epic and action that sometimes feels overlong in historical aspects and sometimes feels like a poor man's Interview With A Vampire but comes together for a nicely tense conclusion. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
106. Hannah, Quest of Vampires [aka Crypt of the Living Dead] (1973, 85 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Tries really hard to convince the viewed that a sleeping woman is some horrific fiend focusing too much on establishing a lore background that falls flat. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme

October 21 [Library/Book theme night] (7 hours, 27 minutes watched)
107. Djinn (2013, 82 minutes) ★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Filled with cringeworthy awkward set up so even some of it's more average scenes suffer for it; a good portion of the introduction goes into explaining some 'logic' of how the characters end up in an laughable isolated middle desert skyscraper. The Djinn and middle eastern themes are ripe with potential but this movie falls flat with plot holes, lame design, and predictable ending. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing
108. Stones of Death [aka Kadaicha] (1988, 88 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Played straight forward enough the aboriginal horror isn't scary and it dances with some promising themes but the script feels overly familiar from other movies reaching beyond it's means so ends up more a cheesy ripoff maybe more interesting for it's cloning of other films that on it's own merits. Everything seems so Australian.Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
109. The Incubus (1982, 93 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Surprisingly good supernatural thriller with a nicely mysterious killer that maintains mystery for much of it's run time, have brutal kills (albeit some off screen), and Cassavates really sells it. Format: Straming [Youtube] Theme Subset
110. In the Mouth of Madness (1994, 95 minutes) ★★★★★★★½✰✰ A near masterpiece with far out otherworldly elements and a very surreal dark tone. Format: Blu-ray Theme Subset
111. I Madman (1989, 89 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Much better than I expected with a nicely morbid cartoonish style and the killer is a standout so far this challenge. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme

October 22 [Theater theme night] (4 hours, 27 minutes watched)
112. Ruby (1977, 85 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Atmospheric movie drive-in on the edge of a swap serves as the backdrop for this mobster supernatural thriller; there's a lot going on here and it's zany yet subtle enough that it works with some morbid slasher elements and a quacky parapsychologist Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
113. Terror In the Aisles (1977, 82 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Better than I'd expect a clip show to be thanks in part to Donald Pleasence overly dramatic narration, many scenes don't make a lot of sense out of context but works as a braindead cultural slideshow. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme Subset
114. Invaders From Mars (1986, 100 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Nicely over the top effects with a kids' fantasy angle and fun military siege imagery; I liked it better than expected. Format: Blu-ray

October 23 [Sideshow/Carnival theme night] (6 hours, 23 minutes watched)
[Baby face masked killer double feature]
115. Dark Ride (2006, 94 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Better than I expected stealing elements from more popular movies with a too slow middle section but slowly builds intensity. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] 1st Viewing Theme
116. Hills Run Red (2009, 82 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ Dark slasher that's self aware in a good way and maintains intensity throughout with an unusual plot and enough twists to keep people hooked. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] Theme
117. Crimson Peak (2015, 119 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Pretentiously decorated with predictable elements but enough of it comes together to be good delivering some irony combined with some of the imagery that is effective to compel an interesting conclusion; if Del Toro could be more subtle this could have been better. Format: Theatrical 1st Viewing Theme
118. House of Wax (1953, 88 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Vincent Price sells the movie well supported by cavernous settings and a morbid premise, I like this remake better than the original. Format: Streaming [Daily Motion] 1st Viewing Theme Subset

October 24 [Double Feature theme night] (3 hours, 58 minutes watched)
119. Frankenstein 1970 (1958, 83 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Uneventful with some promising ideas that never go anywhere; Karloff is good here. Format: Streaming [Thanks to Alyxstar] 1st Viewing Theme Subset
120. The Terror (1963, 81 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Jumps the shark with stretched gimmicks and while it's nicely mysterious for much of it's timeframe it over explains in an attempts to give an ironic ending but that's too forced. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme Subset
121. Scooby Doo! Frankencreepy (2014, 74 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Filled with homages to classic Scooby Door but stumbles with awkwardly positioning each character into overly detailed references that don't quit work despite lending silly imagery.Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX]

October 25 [Vs/Internet/Tree/Detective/Whatever theme night] (9 hours, 47 minutes watched)
122. Dead Within (2014, 91 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ A gem that blends psychological and zombie tropes effectively playing out in a claustrophobic setting with a paranoid and otherworldly feel. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing
123. Circle (2015, 87 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ More preachy than it is socially conscious forcing a social metaphor thought experiment with some tension but also a whole lot of talking debate. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing
124. Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948, 83 minutes) ★★★★½✰✰✰✰✰ Not much of a Costello or slapstick fan, the monsters are played with nice seriousness and Lon Chaney excels here but it's more silly than I'd prefer Format: Streaming [Netflix] Theme Subset
125. Jaws (1975, 130 minutes) ★★★★★★★½✰✰ A classic, one of the few that lives up to it's reputation. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX]
126. Little Shop of Horrors [Director's Cut] (1986, 102 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ A personal favorite, the evil plant is wild and comedy far out enough that the musical makes it all work. The director's cut ending is much superior. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
127. Nightmare Weekend (1986, 94 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Slow despite being crammed with 80s style and generous nudity, tries too hard in parts to be weird with sparse intensity until near the end... not a 'so bad it's good' film but just a braindead flop. Format: Blu-ray Theme

October 26 [Slasher/Giallo/Killer theme night] (13 hours, 31 minutes watched)
128. Tucker and Dale Vs. Evil (2010, 89 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Effective character actors carry this, mostly played for gags with some romantic comedy thrown in. Format: Streaming [Netflix] Theme
129. The Cottage (2008, 92 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Gory slapstick dark comedy slasher that blends genres well with macabre humor.Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] Theme
130. Lady Stay Dead (1981, 92 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ More visual than wordy often accompanied by dated brooding elevator music to surreal effect giving a voyeuristic feel (the limited dialogue adds a 'third person' vibe and interspersed nudity/torture a strange leering quality). Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
131. Stripped to Kill (1987, 88 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ More dramatic than expected with an odd commitment to stripper footage/routines, predictable killer. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
132. High Lane [aka Vertige] (2009, 90 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰✰✰ Fantastic setting and camera work give a tense feeling of being stuck at high elevations with some unique tactics (audio only scenes) that work well. Much better than I expected. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
[Moral Rage double feature]
133. Candle of the Devil [aka It Happened At Nightmare Inn] (1973, 90 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Interesting killers with good pacing and the setting is nicely subdued with occasional standout imagery. Handles explaining the motivation well without being too extreme and has a really great unusual ending. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
134. Prom Night IV: Delivery Us From Evil (1992, 92 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Epic killer with nice gore despite some slow segments and inferior/dark picture quality on DVD. Occasionally over the top in selling the victims but that helps establish the bad guy. Format: DVD 1st Viewing Theme
135. The Midnight Hour (1985, 94 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Much better than expected with a wholesome family Halloween feel that's focused more on having fun than providing much substance. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing
136. We Are Still Here (2015, 84 minutes) ★★★★½✰✰✰✰✰ Inventive looking specters with chilling moments but skirts the line between effective and corny too often. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing

October 27 [Werewolf/Werecreature theme night] (14 hours, 9 minutes watched)
137. Late Phases (2014, 95 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Better than I expected with well staged scenes and decent acting, one of the better modern werewolf movies I've seen but not without it's unintentionally funny flaws (some of the 'old people' stuff seems forced, guy casually walks around in bloody shirt for a day). Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
[Ginger Snaps trilogy marathon]
138. Ginger Snaps (2000, 108 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ The menstrual parallels are clever but feel over the top... still a modern masterpiece with an excellent finale. Format: Blu-ray Theme
139. Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed (2004, 94 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ A decline in quality that ruins some of what was good about Ginger Snaps with some silly devices (like how the guidance counselor is too distracted smoking cigarettes) flirting with conventional, like 'troubled youth' subplot - especially weaker in the first third but gets better. Maintains a good focus on werewolf as a metaphor for sexuality but is less playful than the original with more jump scares and some inconsistent acting. Format: DVD 1st Viewing Theme
140. Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning (2004, 94 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Odd film recasting the actresses from the series in an not really connected frontier setting 1800s prequel, handles werewolves with less transparency and focuses more on overt paranoia and a fort under siege with some good imagery. Lacks the edge of the earlier films and dips too far into mysticism. Format: DVD 1st Viewing Theme
141. Black Sheep (2006, 87 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Clever idea with some excellent practical effects but it's constant humor gets stale playing gags out for too long and yielding the stupidest ending ever. Format: DVD Theme Subset
142. Howling VII: New Moon Rising [with Joe Bob Briggs Monstervision interludes, 21 minutes] (1995, 90 minutes) ★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ People sit around a country bar drinking and line dancing for 3/4ths of the movie then the werewolf part is butchered with odd fast forwarding, really horrible. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing Theme
143. In Fear (2013, 85 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Good indie film with a nice mysterious buildup and a creepy payoff, there are times it's obvious their budget wasn't ideal but overall very good considering. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
144. Curse of the Demon (1957, 83 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Great special effects with a slow investigative approach that works. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] 1st Viewing Theme
145. Mosquito (1995, 92 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Brain dead creature film with excellent effects and wild over exaggerated mosquitos, a fun movie. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme

October 27 [Supernatural theme night] (12 hours, 12 minutes watched)
146. Let Us Prey (2014, 92 minutes) ★★★★★★★★✰✰ Might be my favorite first time viewing this month; it's a really great film with good imagery, an eerie vibe, and even some tense action style scenes. Often when films get so transparent over explaining or selling their twist it can be annoying, almost 'talking down' to the viewer but Let Us Prey rolls around in it full embracing it's reveal and kicking it up into a surreal frenzy that works beautifully. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
147. +1 (2013, 95 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ Energetic and colorful party based supernatural thriller that hit the spot with an abstract plot that gets brutal but stays intelligent. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
148. Insidious 3 (2015, 98 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Serviceable ghost/possession movie, I'm not sure I understand all the odd mythos building with Insidious - the older woman psychic doesn't seem like that interesting of a character and the "old woman" ghost has become really campy and lame; still the conventions worked well enough here as a standalone. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] 1st Viewing Theme
149. The Den (2013, 81 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Potentially great online video themed horror movie with some intense scenes, some of the thrills didn't seem plausible but this was something different and much better than I expected. Format: Streaming [Netflix]
150. The Night Child (1975, 90 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ Disappointingly slow and slightly confusing, I think there's a lot of build up and dramatization but not much going on. Format: Blu-ray Theme
151. Stir of Echoes (1999, 99 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Kevin Bacon leads with a nicely paranoid compulsive personality that helps this better than average ghost movie across it's blue collar setting in a tense and mysterious way. Format: Blu-ray Theme Subset
152. Neverlake (2013, 86 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Overly familiar at times with stale acting but eventually pulls things together with some interesting twists, predictable in places but at the end I liked it better than I expected to. Underwater ghosts sound ripe with possibility but this is short of ghastly events despite some interesting imagery. Format: Streaming [Netflix] Theme
153. Mortuary (1983, 91 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Fun slasher with a cool... mortuary theme; wicked masked killer. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing

October 29 [Bats/Cats/Rats theme night] (12 hours, 50 minutes watched)
154. Call Girl of Cthulhu (2014, 92 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ In your face mix of low budget design, gore splatter, and Lovecraft antics; better than I expected with a good mix of low brow nudity and sex jokes combined with tentacle horror with really weird body horror splatter. This feels like vintage Henelotter. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing
155. Call Girl of Cthulhu[Commentary with Producers] (2014, 92 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Later in a marathon vegging out with a commentary sounded good and since Call Girl of Cthulhu is an indie Kickstarter funded project I wondered if the commentary would be rich - this is filled with production trivia much of which is very specific to the film but filled with design tidbits (sugar plates, producer engaged to actress, etc). I'm not a big fan of commentaries and while this one was lively it didn't convert me but the producers seem passionate. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing
156. [Rec]4: Apocalypse (2014, 95 minutes) ★★★★½✰✰✰✰✰ It's sad to see the [Rec] franchise decline into lacking horror action video game style antics, this feels more like something out of Resident Evil than the brilliantly intense found footage origins and while it nicely pulls from the mythos those also get twisted into some much more mundane and uninteresting. For a conventional zombie action film it's mediocre, but it should have been so much more. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Subset
157. Cat People (1982, 118 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Awkwardly creates "rules" to compel a plot but if you can buy into it gets nicely brooding with conflicted characters and a satisfying overall film. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
158. Pet Sematary (1989, 103 minutes) ★★★★★★½✰ Exhausting film with dramatic punches and one of the creepiest kids every; effective casting helps sell thing. Format: Blu-ray Theme Subset
159. Curse II: The Bite (1989, 98 minutes) ★★★★½✰✰✰✰✰ One of the weirdest things I've seen all month, mind blowing with good practical effects tat makes this worth it despite an aimless plot filled with corny antics. Format: Streaming [Youtube] 1st Viewing
160. Deadly Eyes[aka Night Eyes (1982, 87 minutes) ★★★½✰✰✰✰✰✰ Awful movie with 'so bad it's good' (only it's not good) effects Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
161. Dark House (2009, 85 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ People run around obvious stage sets from cartoonish Goosebumps looking effects; I've heard good things about this but am not sure why now. Format: DVD 1st Viewing

October 30 [Devil theme night] (13 hours, 43 minutes watched)
162. Tales From the Crypt: Demon Knight (1995, 92 minutes) ★★★★★★★✰✰✰ A personal favorite - Billy Zane sells the movie and it's the right mix of pulp, comedy, and terror. The strangers trapped in a building plot might not be very original but it's executed stylishly. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
163. At the Devil's Door (2014, 91 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Confusing at times intersecting tales about several women across different times but comes together towards the last half in a way that's cliche but 'never gets old.' Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
164. Freaks of Nature (2015, 92 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Decent if you go in expecting a comedy first and a 'horror' movie last, the vampires/zombies/etc are just sort of randomly inserted without obvious relevance (other than maybe exaggerated social metaphor) but it's far out enough that it ends up being energetic and fun. There's some odd crude humor but it also has a level of intelligence that makes it worth seeing if nothing to get excited about. It effectively pulls in high school drama elements. Format: Theatrical 1st Viewing
165. A Scout's Guide to Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse (2015, 93 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Rarely more than cute and it was overly dedicated to the 'scout' joke. It's like an inferior version of Zombieland... overall forgettable with occasional moments of that stood-out... if you're hard up for another modern zombie rom com then maybe give it a try just brace yourself for iffy joke and a thin plot. Format: Theatrical 1st Viewing
166. Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension (2015, 95 minutes) ★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰✰ A letdown, it's disappointing to see them resort to inferior effects and doesn't offer much to standout within the lackluster later series installments. If you've invested time into the series so far it's probably worth a rental to see but otherwise a continuity heavy retread that at least shows a dedication to mythos. Format: Theatrical 1st Viewing Theme
167. Bloody April Fools [aka Los Inocentes (2015, 70 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ A great modern slasher that's more fun than I expected; nothing too original but gory enough with good pacing. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing
168. The Gift (2015, 108 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ A tense thriller but some characters seem to just be over reacting and at least one 'twist' is predictable; not really horror (maybe borderline) so using a wild card - worth seeing but not as good as I'd hoped. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] 1st Viewing [Wild Card #1]
169. Book of Life (2014, 95 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Stylized cartoon fantasy about the Day of the Dead; was fun to watch with the kids. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] [Wild Card #2]
170. The Damned (2013, 87 minutes) ★★★★½✰✰✰✰✰ Average with some conventional tropes. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing [Wild Card #1]

October 31 [Devil theme night] (11 hours, 7 minutes watched)
171. Thale (2012, 77 minutes) ★★★★★½✰✰✰✰ Far out fantasy horror with a great indie feel and a very original feel. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing
172. Trick or Treats (1982, 91 minutes) ★★★★✰✰✰✰✰✰ Silly film that seems more focused on fluff diversion than horror elements but eventually pulls things together and seems more focused on fun that chills. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme
173. From the Dark (2014, 90 minutes) ★★★★★★★½✰✰ Hit the spot with it's creepy mysterious extended chase antics, an unexpected sleeper hit this challenge. Format: Streaming [Netflix] 1st Viewing Theme
174. Paranorman (2012, 93 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ I really like the animated style and the vulnerable nature of may characters, despite it's unassuming nature it pulls some unexpected twists. Format: Streaming [Ultraviolet HDX] Theme
175. Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein (1999, 78 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Has a nice classic cartoon feel and was fun watching with the kids while waiting to go trick or treating - running around a theme park and teaching Frankenstein to make friends. Format: Streaming [Netflix] Theme
176. Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet the Wolfman (2000, 77 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Slightly darker than A&C Meet Frankenstein with the female chipmunks and more going on. Format: Streaming [Netflix] Theme
177. The Invisible Man (1933, 71 minutes) ★★★★★★✰✰✰✰ Nice first half but then seems to slow and try to be more scientific, Invisible Man is one of my favorite Universal monsters second to the Creature. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing
178. The Strangers (2008, 90 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ My wife likes The Strangers so we traditionally watch it every year; it's good but this time the flaws seemed more obvious - I like the tension between characters and menacing nature of the stalkers. Format: Blu-ray

November 1 [before dusk] [Comedy theme night] (? hours, ?? minutes watched)
179. What We Do In the Shadows (2014, 87 minutes) ★★★★★✰✰✰✰✰ Much more scattered than I expected with a full on dedication to it's documentary premise with good character driven comedy but too anchored by awkward personalities, I'd prefer more typical plot basis. Not bad but over hyped. Format: Blu-ray 1st Viewing Theme Subset

Re: The 11th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/31) ***The List Threa

***LIST FINALIZED***

Goal - at least 50 watched (failed), complete theme nights (succeeded).

45 watched, 24 new views.

First time viewings are in orange

October 1st

1: The House Where Death Lives (1981) [Youtube] - a wealthy cripple hires a new live-in nurse, but he and the other members of his estate will need far more help than they bargained for when someone begins picking them off. This slow-going slasher possesses a rather odd mood as we see the inner-workings of the eccentric family unit built around a lonely recluse. Patricia Pearcy of Squirm fame makes for a particularly unusual final girl. Not sure if it was the performance or the character, perhaps a little of both. The film's languid pace would put off most, though there are some effective scenes, most notably a brutal bludgeoning during the climax. I likely would have predicted the ending anyway, but the film's alternate title, which it's actually better known by, really hammers it home.

2: Night of the Demon (1980) [DVD] - a college professor and his students go searching the woods for Bigfoot and a crazy woman who may have a connection to the creature. Despite buying the DVD when it first came out, I hadn't watched this since my initial rental viewing well over a decade ago. I think it's a blast, a cheesy mixture of slasher and sasquatch carnage with fun campfire tale flashbacks thrown in. We also can't ignore the bits of randomness that don't go anywhere, like the professor's wife having bad dreams involving her husband's expedition. The creature itself looks more impressive than I remembered, and the DVD quality is surprisingly good for a tape master.

3: Cathy's Curse (1977) [Youtube] - disjointed mess of a movie about a girl possessed by her aunt, who died in a car accident when she was around the same age. While the occasional scene of worth pops up, mainly amusing bits of Cathy cursing (har har), it's pretty much a bunch of random nonsense and the two parents giving some of the strangest attempts at performances out there... and I don't mean that in a good way.

October 2nd

4: Pensione Paura (1977) [Youtube] - I've been on quite the obscure Eurohorror kick this year and had this on my to-do list last month. Once I saw there would be a hotel theme for the challenge, I decided to hold off and have a nice little European double-feature. I'm a big fan of director Francesco Barilli's The Perfume of the Lady in Black, and this one is just as much of a slow-burner, though, in the end, it winds up being far more of a drama than anything. It takes a very long time for any horror elements to show themselves. Not to imply that being a detriment, the film remains interesting throughout despite the hotel guests being a most obnoxious group of characters. Once we get past the opening scenes introducing these losers, complete with equally annoying pieces of music, things settle in nicely with a well-done sequence of war planes heard flying overhead as everyone sits down to dinner. Leanora Fani carries the weight of the picture as the tormented heroine who you hope to see overcome her less than ideal surroundings.

5: Death Falls Lightly (1972) [DVD-R] - upon discovering his wife murdered, a man fears he'll be blamed and goes to his lawyer for refuge. Joined by his mistress, it is decided that they'll hide out in an abandoned hotel while the lawyer comes up with a plan. Once there, they soon realize that they're locked in and that the place might not be so abandoned after all. This is a very unconventional giallo which features one of the most genuinely surprising denouements in the entire cycle of the sub-genre. The first 30 minutes of the film are admittedly a tad meandering as our duo bickers over their situation while nothing else happens, but the intrigue manifests in a hurry once they encounter the other individuals lurking about. The dark hotel itself, while appropriately claustrophobic, isn't the most exciting locale, and the film lacks the sense of style you expect from most gialli, but all is made up for by the bizarre surreality of the happenings and the focused isolation of the narrative.

October 3rd

6: Panga (1991) [DVR/MGM HD] - after disrupting an African tribe's voodoo ceremony, a witch doctor puts a curse on a plantation owner's wife, which brings death to all around her courtesy of a demon from the sea. Sold as Curse III: Blood Sacrifice, I'm a big fan of it and the first two films in the unrelated series. Here we get a nice juxtaposition of African tribal customs and the out of place American, only in South Africa due to her marriage. The locations make for nice eye candy and we get Christopher Lee as a doctor who may be involved in the killings. Jenilee Harrison makes for a very attractive leading lady, but her character can be somewhat annoying at times. The fish-like demon on display here reminds one of the creature from Zaat, only more intimidating and with much better effects work courtesy of Chris Walas. One of my favorite aspects of the film is the anomalous score. I even copied it to CD.

October 4th

7: This House Possessed (1981) [Youtube] - after collapsing during a performance due to exhaustion, a famous singer and his new nurse head to an isolated estate for some relaxation. Little do they know, the house has been waiting for them. An old favorite of mine that I saw on TV years ago, it was nice to finally revisit it. The isolated house is the star here and makes for an exquisite setting, one of the best in horror. Lisa Eilbacher is another big plus, as lovely as ever, though I don't know what she sees in Parker Stevenson's character. Can't be his singing, which we have to endure a few scenes of. It's never explained how the house can see, let alone affect, the characters when they're not even in the same zip code, nor how the place became possessed to begin with, but whatever. It's a lot of fun, and there are some memorable scenes of carnage, particularly what befalls the librarian.

8: No Place to Hide (1981) [Youtube] - Amy is being stalked by a masked figure. Unfortunately, no one else ever sees him and the police are fed up with her constant reports. Is she simply losing her grip on sanity? This twisty tale stars Kathleen Beller, and is a much better vehicle for her than the weak Are You in the House Alone?, thank goodness. She does well as the put-upon heiress, dealing with possible delusions, the recent death of her father and an improved, but still unsteady relationship with her stepmother. Keir Dullea shows up as the psychiatrist willing to help. Midway through the film, once a reveal takes place, it's pretty clear where things are going, but the first half is full of suspense, and seeing the repercussions of all that happened is satisfying. John Lewellyn Moxey made a career out of directing TV films, and I think this one's my favorite of his work.

9: Crawlspace (1972) [Youtube] - a lonely old couple discover that a young nomad has been living in the crawlspace beneath their new house. Never having had kids of their own, they decide to let him stay, but things don't pan out for the best. From the director of Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, this has echoes of the later Bad Ronald. While I didn't much care for that one, this was a pleasant surprise. Despite a short running time, the characters are well-drawn, and you understand how they can make the unusual choice of taking in a clearly off-kilter stranger. The acting is strong, particularly from Arthur Kennedy (a far cry from his detestable inspector in Let Sleeping Corpses Lie) and Tom Happer. The length works against the film, however, in how abrupt certain changes in character take place toward the end. The wife actually becomes quite unlikable with her complete 180 regarding their guest, even wishing him killed for no good reason. This aside, a winning effort overall. I'd like to read the book it's based on.

October 5th

10: Hanging Heart (1983) [Youtube] - an actor's romantic interests are being killed off, and he's the prime suspect. His lawyer, who has a thing for him, is determined to find the real killer. This is a most unorthodox slasher with a dreamlike ambiance and a tendency to go off on some odd tangents, including awkward attempts at comedy(?) involving the lawyer's invalid father. The lead character, Denny, is a whiny, neurotic douchebag, so seeing his life become unraveled is more of a pleasure rather than a cause for you to root for him. Why all of these girls are into this sap is beyond me. There's also a strong sexual identity slant to the film, which leads to a few unique flourishes. Though I expected a slight difference in motive, the killer's identity is no surprise. Predictability and pathetic lead notwithstanding, this is worth seeing for both slasher fans and fellow connoisseurs of the terminally weird.

October 6th

11: Bloodbeat (1983) [VHS] - speaking of weird, this is one of the more out there films you could ever see. A family's Christmas reunion gets off to a bad start when the son brings home his girlfriend, leading to a feeling of deja-vu between her and the boy's psychic mother. Things get worse with the appearance of a glowing samurai warrior who's murderous tendencies seem linked to the girlfriend's orgasms. So, here we have a slasher shot in Wisconsin by a French director with a ghostly samurai as the killer. It's actually pretty effective for the first two-thirds, particularly with a creepy home invasion and ensuing chase. Through some splendid editing, this sequence is interspersed with the girlfriend's writhing and sexual thrusts as she lay in bed. During the final third, however, the film veers off in an unsatisfying direction with over-the-top antics and ridiculous special effects. Disappointing, but not enough to ruin my enjoyment. Oh yeah, excessive overuse of violin chords.

October 7th

12: The Resurrected (1991) [Blu-ray] - being a huge Lovecraft fan, I'm surprised that I didn't get around to this adaptation sooner. That's procrastination for you. Throw in Dan O'Bannon as director, and I felt confident in blind buying the pricey new BD. As it turns out, this is one of the more faithful takes on the legendary writer's work, and my familiarity with the story was no hindrance to the aura of mystery, which really makes the film. Chris Sarandon is also fantastic, giving one of his best performances, and the special effects are positively grisly. Most importantly, O'Bannon captures the essence of Lovecraft, something few filmmakers have truly been able to do. Indeed, it was worth the price.

October 8th

13: The Savage Intruder (1970) [Youtube] - Miriam Hopkins plays a washed up Hollywood starlet who dreams of making a comeback, but has to settle for becoming the target of a psycho who manages to get himself hired as her personal caretaker. Resembling a darker Sunset Boulevard, the tone is set right off the bat with a credits sequence lingering on the wear and decay of the Hollywood sign. The theme of a seedy, decadent L.A. that spits out it's drained stars makes for the most interesting aspect of the picture. Too bad, then, that it's mostly abandoned for the relationship between Hopkins and John Garfield's depraved killer. It drags things down, thanks in large part to Garfield not making for a strong villain. His motivations are unclear, and he comes off more as a pompous, entitled punk than a menacing madman. Once the focus shifts completely to him, the film lacks flow and gets old in a hurry. Pity. It had potential.

October 9th

14: U.F.O. Abduction (1989) [Youtube] - a little girl's birthday party is spoiled by aliens as her uncle videotapes the event. Intriguing found footage production that garners points for actually looking like an authentic home video, but the poor acting/banter at the beginning immediately betrays it's attempts at realism. Yet, in spite of this and the inclusion of end credits, some people, even now, apparently believe that this is genuine footage. The acting gets more believable as the film goes on, some of the cast pulling off convincing portrayals of terror and attempts at coping which ring true. There are a few chills to be had, and it's interesting seeing such a raw, early attempt at this sub-genre. With that being said, it's more of a curiosity than anything. Remade in 1998 as Alien Abduction: Incident in Lake County, which I need to check out.

15: Zombeavers (2014) [Netflix streaming] - undead beavers attack teens staying at a lakeside cabin. I expected this to be more amusing than it wound up being. Too much time is spent with an unappealing cast of jerks and backstabbers. Fortunately, it really picks up near the end with the beaver people and a... well, I won't spoil it. Funniest part for me was when a zombeaver-fied man and zombeaver team up to cut down a tree, futile in their attempt to block escaping would-be victims. It was cool seeing Rex Linn show up as a hunter, and I could've sworn I'd seen Cortney Palm somewhere before, which bothered me throughout the movie as I couldn't place her. I looked up her credits afterward and was mistaken, but she definitely reminds me of someone. I just can't put my finger on who.

October 10th

16: The Iguana with the Tongue of Fire (1971) [Youtube] - in Dublin, a Swiss ambassador's mistress is brutally slain and stuffed in his car trunk. The police investigate, but soon have more bodies on their hands. Riccardo Freda's giallo hits the ground running with a vicious killing via acid to the face and flowing slit jugular. It gets a bit overly political from there, too often bogging down in the ambassador's diplomatic immunity before things pick up again later on. In the interim, there are several absurd musical stingers every time someone is revealed to have sunglasses (the killer was shown to be wearing a pair). While not highly stylized, setting the action in Dublin is a novel change of pace, and the sultry Dagmar Lassander is always a welcome presence. She gets a memorable chase scene involving a draw bridge. Things are capped off with a frenzied finale where both an old woman and teenager get battered about. Doesn't live up to it's awesome title, but it makes for a schlocky evening's entertainment.

October 11th

17: Invitation to Hell (1984) [Youtube] - after getting a new job, a scientist moves his family to a desert community. Before long, he realizes something suspicious is going on at the country club all his co-workers seem obsessed with. This made for TV effort opens with one of the most delightfully cheesy displays I've ever witnessed. Alas, family melodrama takes over from there and sticks around for the bulk of the film's remainder. I didn't care about these people, just the dog. Everything involving Susan Lucci's sinister demoness gives the movie a much needed shot in the arm. More of her and the effects of the country club on it's members would have been preferable. The space suit stuff at the end is lame, and one wonders why Urich's character isn't simply done away with, especially taking into account how easily the careless driver is disposed of. Worth seeing for Lucci and that opening, but lacking the punch of Craven's better works.

October 12th

18: Night Angel (1990) [Youtube] - the demonic seductress, Lilith, is reborn in modern L.A., where she plans to use popular fashion rag, "Siren", as an outlet to spread her evil. I've been meaning to see this for a long time, so it was nice to finally get the chance. The same director's Halloween 5 is a movie I actively dislike. Fortunately, he breathes far more life into these proceedings with a stylish flare and various offbeat elements, such as the employees of the magazine becoming sex-crazed psychotics. There's also a freakish instance featuring all sorts of grotesque apparitions as Lilith lures her prey. Slightly sullied by an unsympathetic lead, but otherwise a pleasing mix of creature feature and erotic thrillers. It was nice to see Phil Fondacaro in a brief cameo, and Karen Black amuses as the magazine's owner who becomes smitten with Lilith.

19: Deep Blood (1990) [Youtube] - four childhood friends reunite years later for some summer fun. Things go bad when one of them is eaten by a shark that's been stalking the coast. A late entry in the long line of silly Italian Jaws cash-ins. I actually got a kick out of this one despite the almost universal hatred it seems to inspire. The laughable character interactions, the lack of emotion whenever someone was attacked (the best being a philanderer who hightails it while his squeeze becomes shark bait) and the random bursts of melodrama thrown in, only to be quickly forgotten, all make for a good time. On a less humorous note, I found it a refreshing touch that the bully angle didn't end the way you'd expect. Overall, a bad movie, but enjoyable kitsch. I thought it was much less boring than the overrated The Last Shark. I'm someone who considers Troll 2 a complete waste of time and something like Zaat a laugh riot, so YMMV.

20: Cursed (1990) [Youtube] - after a church gargoyle falls on a priest, a geneticist takes part of it to his lab and makes a rousing discovery. His excitement soon turns to dread when he realizes that it was something better left undiscovered. First thing's first; the Youtube upload of this minimalist gem is plagued by sound issues. Though most of the dialogue was thankfully understandable, it was quite aggravating, so it's a testament to how engrossed I found myself in the film that I didn't call it quits. The budget is practically nonexistent, but the ambitious ideas, unsettling vibe and melancholy score more than make up for any financial shortcomings. Striking me as the very definition of an acquired taste with it's aberrant, low-key approach to religious horror, I have little doubt that most would fail to share my fascination. My favorite new viewing of the challenge so far, and seeing redheaded Canadian beauty, Joy Boushel, again was an added treat.

21: Cellar Dweller (1988) [Youtube] - a comic book artist unknowingly gives life to a demonic creature when she draws him. This is a pretty generic quickie with a villain that resembles an overgrown reject from the Ghoulies series. The cast is appealing, and I liked the comic strips, but it pretty much just feels like going through the motions. Jeffrey Combs makes an all-too brief appearance at the beginning.

October 14th

22: Psycho Cop 2 (1993) [Youtube] - the psycho cop returns, this time to terrorize a group of morons throwing a bachelor party in an office high-rise. I guess the director was disappointed in the lack of nudity and sleaze in the first one, because he overcompensates here. He also decides to throw continuity out the window, as Officer Vickers forgets his aversion to guns and blows away most of his victims. The change in setting is appreciated, even if I prefer the wooded lodge atmosphere of it's predecessor. The only likable individual in the movie gets what actually amounts to a pretty suspenseful final chase. And the one-liners aren't quite as painful this time around.

October 15th

23: Terror Eyes (1989) [Youtube] - due to a writer's strike in Hollywood, a demon begins influencing a woman to write a horror screenplay. A cheaply made, but pleasingly quirky horror anthology co-written by star, Vivian Schilling, who turns in a charming performance. Her character, however, is incomprehensibly married to Daniel Roebuck. Ugh! The first story has a couple receiving a book that seems to predict their future. Tale number two involves a gambler who gets caught in a time loop. Up third, we're introduced to a feminist chess player who winds up on the wrong end of a video game mogul's rage. The segments and wraparound are all quite clever, and there's an enthusiasm throughout that is really ingratiating. Again, I could have done without Roebuck hamming it up, but this is better than you'd expect from a late 80's anthology, not to mention one of the more original attempts at the format.

October 16th

24: The Fan (1981) [DVR/Encore Suspense] - a pre-The Terminator Michael Biehn stars as a fan dangerously obsessed with an over-the-hill actress. I was going to revisit a personal favorite, Der Fan, for today's theme, but decided to knock this one off of the DVR instead. It's a bland affair - slick, but soulless. I hate musicals, so it doesn't help that we're subjected to some grating musical numbers. Biehn is good, and it's cool seeing him before he landed his breakout role, but his infatuation with Bacall is unconvincing unless you view it as him looking more for a mother figure. Best part of the movie is a surprisingly potent line about a meatcleaver, which, go figure, is reportedly edited out of the DVD release version.

October 17th

25: Shadows Run Black (1986) [Youtube] - a serial killer is offing a bunch of college girls. Can infamous Rydell King find the culprit? Incredibly run-of-the-mill slasher is notable for one reason; the appearance of a young Kevin Costner as the prime suspect. It's mildly amusing seeing him squirm while being interrogated by the over-the-top King, a hotheaded scenery-chewer who strains the nerves considerably. Filmed in the early 80's, but shelved until Costner started gaining fame. For good reason, too, as this is a fruitless endeavor with zero suspense or points of interest. There doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to the kills, and the killer's identity is pretty much spoiled when we get a look at his silhouette. The movie is nudity city, so director Howard Heard must have figured that's the main ingredient to a successful slasher. Sorry, but you need a bit more than that.

26: Terminal Choice (1985) [VHS] - in a hospital controlled via hi-tech computer system, not only are some of the staff placing bets on patient recovery time, but someone is also using the computer's abilities for a more sinister agenda. While lacking in likable characters, I still find myself drawn into this unknown slasher variant from Canada. The futuristic hospital system makes for a novel plot device, and there are some nasty set-pieces as helpless patients meet mean-spirited ends. The demise of the one character I actually did like makes for the film's most gripping sequence. There's also a morbidly amusing bit with repeated attempts on the lead's life as he's stuck in bed with a broken foot. A dull subplot involves he and his ex-fiancee rekindling their romance. Despite the flaws, it's worth a look, especially if you're into medical horror. Ellen Barkin has an early role here as well.

October 18th

27: The Sect (1991) [DVD] - a woman becomes the target of cultists looking to bring about the birth of the Antichrist. Michele Soavi's take on Rosemary's Baby is quite the trip, stunningly rendered with an ample dose of the surreal. Plot-wise, it isn't the most coherent thing in the world, but it's a director's showcase first and foremost, like he wanted to make a dark fairy tale and just went wild with it. The up-the-nostril dream sequence paints an especially vivid portrait of what Soavi is capable of as a filmmaker. A bit overlong for what it is, the film needed to excise a large portion of Herbert Lom sticking around Kelly Curtis' house. Too flawed to reach the dizzying heights of The Church or Dellamorte Dellamore, it's nonetheless a worthy entry.

28: Damned in Venice (1978) [DVD] - blind Mark is having visions of a sinister figure who soon manifests in reality and bedazzles his sister. The pregnancy that follows doesn't bode well for anyone. This Italian stab at Rosemary's Baby is far from yet another cash-in on a popular classic, instead generating something wholly unique from the basic premise. It's also relentlessly bleak with some grim imagery and implications. Most notable is a genuinely shocking act utilizing a wall of metal spikes. Venice has never felt more dreary, and Pino Donaggio's somber score only intensifies the permeating sense of unease. You feel for Mark. On top of his condition leaving him more vulnerable to the evil, his resentful (but attractive) sister belittles him every chance she gets, seeing him as a burden weighing her down. A development at the end further emphasizes the nary a hope nature. Definitely a personal favorite. Makes a good double-bill with The Sect, even if they're drastically different takes on the same idea.

October 19th

29: The Club (1994) [Netflix streaming] - several students attending prom are suddenly thrust into a bizarre game with a mischievous demon, who intends to initiate them into his special club. I recall always seeing the tape back in the video store days, but never pulling the trigger. Seeing it now, it's nothing overtly special, though the central concept is inventive, and J.H. Wyman (apparently replacing Corey Haim) has a field day as the zany tempter, utilizing all manner of subterfuge to place doubt in the students' heads. There are some thoughtful, albeit not adequately explored themes about altering destiny, and the part where a suicidal character is goaded makes for a highlight. In the end, it all gets stuck in a rut of feeling too repetitive. Kim Coates shows up as a serial rapist posing as guidance counselor, and his battle with the central couple feels never-ending.

October 20th

30: Curse of the Undead (1959) [Youtube] - a vengeful rancher hires a gunslinger, not realizing that he's a vampire. I'm always up for a horror western, so I was surprised I hadn't heard of this one before. From Universal, no less, one of their final ventures into B&W horror. The blend of gothic photography and western tropes is a real treat, as is the notion of an undead hired gun, an ideal profession for someone who can't be killed. That said, I found myself most taken in by the simple dialogue exchanges between Michael Pate's bloodsucker and Eric Fleming's preacher. Solid stuff with those two, though their final confrontation comes off as a tad anticlimactic, and picking a fight during broad daylight isn't the most sane decision a vampire could make.

October 21st

31: The Spider Labyrinth (1988) [Youtube] - a Dallas professor involved in the Intextus Project is sent to Budapest to find one of his colleagues who hasn't been heard from. Once there, he realizes that he may be in over his head as a conspiracy rears it's head. This is an exceptionally eerie little picture that almost feels like a second cousin to Argento's "Three Mothers" trilogy. Although the evil here doesn't stem from a coven of witches, it still would've made for an infinitely more fitting end to that trio than the mess we got. But I digress, this stands on it's own as an unmitigated gem. It boasts a hypnotic atmosphere and one set-piece in particular that rivals any seen in the work of Argento. Sergio Stivaletti's effects are suitably nightmarish, chiefly in the unforgettable climax. Only brought down by a final scene that feels too cliche for the film that preceded it.

32: Starry Eyes (2014) [Blu-ray] - a Hollywood hopeful goes to extremes to realize her dream of becoming an actress. I first caught this in December of last year and was blown away. It sits right alongside It Follows as the best newly released horror film I've seen since 2008. Presenting a brazen commentary regarding the elites' hold on the entertainment industry and Project Monarch, it builds slowly, only to ramp up into extreme bouts of 70's-style grindhouse violence and filthy body horror. Complimented by the retro electronica score, innovative cinematography and what should be a star-making performance from Alexandra Essoe. This was my second viewing, and it absolutely holds up.

October 22nd

33: Popcorn (1991) [Youtube] - despite Jill Schoelen being one of my favorite scream queens, I never took to this movie. Since Synapse has their release coming up, I figured now would be the time to revisit to see if my opinion's changed. It hasn't. The gimmick could have made for a great film if the execution weren't all over the map. Then you have the killer, who is one of the most pathetic in the history of slashers. Worth a look for Jill and the giant mosquito contraption, but not a Blu-ray I'll be adding to my collection.

October 23rd

34: House of Wax (2005) [Youtube] - painfully tedious in name only remake from Dark Castle. I liked their take on House on Haunted Hill, but this was just a waste. I didn't have much interest in it to begin with, and those feelings were justified. The characters are vapid, the killers are uninteresting and the whole thing feels completely uninspired. I will say that the melting wax house looked absolutely awesome. Frankly, it's the only thing in the movie that I liked, but it was quite the sight, so props for that.

October 24th

35: Meatcleaver Massacre (1977) [Youtube] - a college professor who teaches classes on the occult is targeted by one of his students, a sociopath who, along with his loser friends, kills off the professor's family and puts him in a coma. However, the coma doesn't keep the professor from summoning a demon to seek revenge. This dark little picture (both thematically and technically) is on the sloppy side. The demon itself is mostly invisible due to the budget, but I think this enhances the attack scenes, especially considering how lame the demon looks once you get a look at it toward the end. Unfortunately, everything aside from the revenge sequences is pretty dull and amateurish. Christopher Lee provides opening and closing narration that has nothing to do with the actual film and was used for this title without his knowledge.

36: Final Exam (1981) [DVD] - one of my favorite slashers, very underrated by all those who complain about nothing happening for the majority of the film. I love the time spent with all of the characters around campus and the various hi-jinks they get involved in. I also find it refreshing that the killer's motive is never revealed, and Cecile Bagdadi is one of the sub-genre's most appealing final girls. Honestly, I have pretty much no complaints about this one. Just a blast through and through. I even have the novelization.

October 25th

37: Lord of Illusions (1995) [DVD] - Barker's masterpiece as far as I'm concerned. I love the slowly unraveling mystery approach and the dreamy L.A. photography, not to mention the glimpse into the world of illusionists and magic. With it's mixture of various tropes, it really comes off as a horror noir. Scott Bakula is solid as the weary D'Amour, but the real standout among the cast is Daniel Von Bargen as the sinister Nix. He is perfect in the role, bringing to life what I feel is one of the most memorable villains in all of horror. The cult element in the film also adds a disturbing touch. Some of the special effects look dated, but the imagination in storytelling is nothing short of amazing. Overall, one of the most undervalued horror films out there.

October 26th

38: Kristy (2014) [DVR/Lifetime] - a college student staying on her deserted campus during Thanksgiving break becomes the target of a killer cult. While the setup is nothing new, this film was a stellar surprise. It's tense throughout and beautifully shot, the lonesome college becoming a character in and of itself. Just great use of scope photography. The opening sequence effectively sets the mood, as does the ominous score. The lovely Haley Bennett makes for a personable heroine, and this is her best role to date. I've seen this compared to both The Strangers and Ils, but I thought it was superior to either of those. One of my best new viewings of the challenge. The studio was stupid to release it the way they did. Now on Netflix, so I fully intend to revisit without having to fast-forward through commercials, and I hope a Blu-ray will come soon.

October 27th

39: Project: Metalbeast (1995) [VHS] - a military experiment goes wrong, resulting in a werewolf with metallic skin. I rented this back in the mid-90's and found it to be an entertaining shot in the arm to the then all but dormant werewolf sub-genre. I'm happy to say that it still holds up as an enjoyable little romp. The idea of creating a super soldier is hardly original, but who cares? Where else are you going to see a werewolf with armored skin? Yummy Kim Delaney plays the head of the research group. Despite appearing in popular TV shows, she also did her fair share of horror films over the years. Yes, Delaney runs a little too easily for someone who just had a metal rod run through her foot and the werewolf's impenetrable skin isn't milked to it's fullest, but this thing makes for a good time while delivering a new spin on lycanthropy.
