Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 13th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
I've been slowly working my way through the Resident Evil series this month, and only have The Final Chapter left, having just finished a first time view of Retribution. I wasn't impressed by Afterlife, considering it rather dull after the first three movies. As such, I didn't have high hopes for Retribution. I was pleasantly surprised however, since I rather enjoyed it. I've heard the last movie isn't very good, so I'm not sure if I am looking forward to finishing the series.

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 13th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
It's really hard for a film like The Omen to have the same impact on today's viewers that it had in the 70s. Not because it's ineffective, but because it's so revered and has become a pop culture icon that expectations reach unrealistic heights. I'm familiar with some of the more iconic scenes thanks to parodies or 'greatest moments of horror' lists. When everybody keeps telling you that you have to see this amazing horror classic, it's hard to go into a viewing with the proper mindset. If you're not totally blown away you're going to wonder what all the fuss is about.
I saw The Exorcist on the big screen when I was 13 when they released the version you've never seen before, and it freaked me the hell out. At 31, I know if I watch the Omen it probably won't scare me, but I could probably appreciate for its quality production and acting, but I know it will probably never impact me the way it did people who saw it in the 70s. The more people tell me I have to see it, the more I kind of want to wait until I know I'm in the right mindset.

Good points. It's obviously different for everyone, but some movies can maintain their impact even decades later. I'm sure I'm not the only one that thinks The Exorcist still packs a punch, probably still ranks as my scariest film. The dark narrow confines for most of the film perhaps adds to that, while The Omen is slightly more bright and airy. Also, for those with strong religious feelings, the realism of The Exorcist is probably stronger than The Omen.

I'll echo the positive comments on The Autopsy of Jane Doe. That was horror done right, and easily my favorite watch of the challenge thus far. Brian Cox is quickly becoming a genre legend. Reminds me a bit of a modern day Donald Pleasence.
I'm fairly certain, like the Saw series, I stopped after the third one. Too much CGI and emphasis of action over horror. Then again, they're good dumb fun and might have to give them another shot.

All this Omen talk made me watch part II and III. I grew up with them, so I love them, especially the first one. They do get progressively worst, but still fun to watch.

I went to a horror triple feature at a local theater last night, I made it through two of the movies before going home. Tales from the Hood was a lot of fun, I enjoyed all the stories. Even with its SJW bent it was so over the top and ridiculous I just had fun with it. Then I saw another movie I never heard of called Waxwork. I guess this was the other cult movie Zach Galligan was known for from the 80s, but I never heard of it. I might seek out the Vestron Video Release bluray that included the sequel packaged together.

Their releases and features vary depending on the movie. I have
The Thing
Lifeforce
Day of the Dead
Cabin Fever(2016)
Teen Wolf
The Return of the Living Dead
Texas Chainshaw Massacre 2
The Halloween 10 disc Bluray set
Out of these handful of movie I have I would say The Thing is the best, Teen Wolf has a documentary thats 2.5 hours long. I have yet to watch Lifeforce. I bought it after watching Electric Boogaloo. I'm also pretty excited for the Silent Night Deadly Night release this December.

Re-watched Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 today; I think that's a film that exemplifies VHS era horror as much as anything else even if it's not distributed my Media Home Entertainment - it's amazing how good the artistic balance of oddball humor and gore is. I'll admit the VHS distributor theme day isn't my favorite because it's seems arbitrary who distributed a film.
House on Willow Street was really good.
First time viewing of I Drink Your Blood didn't impress me much, maybe it's one of those movies that hasn't aged well (...but The Omen is timeless).I think some of the most essential Scream Factory releases are: Ginger Snaps, Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, Return of the Living Dead, Evil Dead, Lady in White, The Thing... but there are a lot of good ones and that's easily overlooking some greats.

I received my prize pack from Hamilton Books yesterday. As I opened the box, I could have sworn I heard a chorus of angels sing out. Well, considering the contents, maybe they weren't really angels ... Anyway, I've taken it as a sign that I should catch up on some Scream Factory releases. I thought The Evictors was pretty good and did a pretty fair job evoking a particular era. I thought the lead actress in Deranged lived up to its name. And hey, that's Harry Reems! I'm dipping into the Slumber Party Massacre double feature now.
A huge thank you to Hamilton Books and Goldenwheels!
I also watched Nail Gun Massacre. I thought it was a fun watch. It seemed very self-aware in a delightfully cheesy way.

The Eureka Fright Night is a disk of beauty. It's been a long time since I've seen this one and it all felt pretty new. Finishing up the night with Shelley. Hope everyone is doing well.

I had a good time with today's theme. There were five movies in my unwatched pile that qualified so I decided to watch them all and I don't think I could have come up with a better pile of cheese and sleaze if I tried. The two I liked best were The Curse (think "The Color Out of Space") and Psychomania (zombie bikers). I also enjoyed the other three just not quite as much. American Nightmare was a very sleazy serial killer story, Devil Times Five covered killer kids, and Demonoid followed a severed hand as it tried to find a good home. What a great way to spend a Saturday!

I hope the rumors of James Woods retirement are not true. Jack Crow in Vampires, is one of the purest most masculine badasses ever put on film. I wish he would make another horror movie. I'm finishing the night with The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I think I prefer watching it at home over seeing it in theaters. I had one experience with a shadowcast and didn't really enjoy it to much. More annoyed by it than anything else.

A nearby theater was showing the restored Night of the Living Dead as well as Mario Bava's Blood and Black Lace so I decided to make it a double feature tonight. I've seen both movies many times but it was a blast seeing them on the big screen. Tuesday is a Texas Chainsaw Massacre double feature which I plan on seeing as well.

I watched the first two Warlock movies this week. I always found Julian Sands to be terrifying as the Warlock. He's kind of like the Terminator of fantasy horror, unstoppable and willing to kill unceremoniously to achieve his mission. The Vestron Video collection comes with part three, which I've never seen. Does anybody know if it's worth watching?

As I was inputting the contents of the prize pack into my collection, I was reminded of something that I have noticed before. I'm sure other collectors here have noticed as well. Each Scream Factory release contains the numbers 666 because every Scream Factory title has a bar code that starts with 826663. It's just something I've always found amusing and very appropriate.

I've always wondered why 976-EVIL of all things didn't capitalize on the 900 number hotline fad of the 80s/90s. Why wasn't there a 1-900-976-EVIL with a satanic Robert Picardo reading you your doomed horoscope for $2.00 the first minute and 45¢ each additional minute?
