100 Movies. 31 Days. The 13th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/31)

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 13th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
I decided on Monkey Shines for today's these; MS is definitely not the best way to remember George Romero. The Crazies (and Night of the Living Dead) was a much smarter and more interesting film that better explains Romero's contributions to horror cinema.
Fingers crossed we do get a stellar release for Night of the Living Dead from Criterion soon.
Demon Knight is a great film; totally under rated. I wonder if the 'Tales from the Crypt' monkier didn't hold it down some because it made it easier for people to dismiss it as some death knell from the tv series. Billy Zane is great and there's a lot happening. I was fortunate to see Demon Knight in theaters when it came out and I think it's held up very well over the years.

Demon Knight sounds like another to put on the watch pile. Thanks!

Some other first-time views on Netflix that I've enjoyed:
I Am Not a Serial Killer: Interesting visual style, a great performance by Christopher Lloyd, and an interesting story that at first seems like it's going to be "Dexter as a teen" ... and then throws some wrinkles into it, and goes to some deep places.
A Dark Song: I liked how the movie really went into the nuts-and-bolts of an elaborate occult ritual. Not for those looking for a body count or a thrill ride. It's more interested in character study ... but a good little movie that is something different from what I've seen before.

Another shout out for Demon Knight. I always thought it was really unique, and a good use of Billy Zane.
I'm actually starting to get a bit burned out, and the evenings are really starting to take a nice turn towards feeling like fall. The dog really is agitating quite a bit because we rarely go for a walk in the evenings this month.
Trevor's got me interested in Monkey Shines now. I remember seeing it many years ago, but can't remember much other than Elizabeth Shue.

Last night, I watched Manos: The Hands of Fate without a riff, and can confirm that it was the worst film ever made. I say "was the worst" because today I saw the now worst film ever made, Boo 2! A Madea Halloween.

Caught the underrated The Dark Half for Romero day. Not a bad adaptation for one of King's (IMO) lesser novels. Surprised it doesn't get more recognition as one of the better 90s horror films.
I plan on digging mine out tonight and catching the dead trilogy in HD for the first time. Also my first 4K genre viewing (Dawn Euro cut)!
The third one probably put a stop to any future installments. That was Creepshow 3 terrible. Even the Crypt keeper itself looked "off"; didn't seem to have all the animatronics functioning properly.
It'll always been known as the film that kept him from directing Pet Sematary. That would've been an interesting take.

Going to binge Stranger Things tonight in preparation for Season 2, which drops in less than 12 hours. I haven't been this excited for a TV show since Lost went off the air.

I will also admit to watching Boo 2! A Madea Halloween; I never understood these Madea movies because while an in your face assertive person could be funny they seem to just revert to the most awkward low brown 'humor.' These must have been a 20 minute segment of the Madea gang sitting around in a living room joking about 'hos'. At lease Boo 2 tries harder at horror elememts that the even suckier Boo 1. Bijuiice?

My take is that that neither of those films is "ethnic horror." Tales from the Hood has the racist vs. the slave dolls story, but other than that, the film does not depend on race as a source of horror, and really, you could have subbed in any other oppressed group since the doll segment is just a revenge tale.
Ganja and Hess is a vampire story with black people, but their race is irrelevant. You could have made them Asian or white or Latino, and it would be the same film. Blacula stars the magnificent William Marshall and has a predominantly black cast, but apart from Dracula acting like a KKK Grand Wizard in the pre-credits scene, its plot doesn't really involve race.
Get Out, OTOH, derives its horror from America's discomfort with confronting racism in supposedly "nice", well-to-do white people. I knew Jordan Peele was a horror fan from interviews, and the Key & Peele Halloween episodes he wrote show that he really knows the genre inside and out, but damn, Get Out is a masterpiece. I can't wait to see what he directs next.
Jordan Peele gave a foretaste of his take on American racism with the brilliant

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 13th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
Hello, all. I just joined this forum for the tail end of the 2017 October challenge. I found this group by googling for October horror movie challenges. I've been a horror fan all my life and have watched tons over the years. I've watched almost 30 movies for the month of October, but I haven't been following a checklist so I may not complete the challenge this year. Or rather, I plan to complete it, but I will likely run well into November.
My preferences in horror are psychological, cult, satanic, ghosts, monsters, evil kids, etc. I like Asian horror, Euro, and classic 60's-90's horror as well as new releases. I'm a bit over found footage but still run across stuff I like such as the recent Hell House LLC. My least fav sub-genre is torture porn/hard core slasher stuff like Wolf Creek. However, I'm cool with gore when pain is not the focal point. I love the Final Destination movies and, recently, Death Note (on Netflix) and HOWL (the UK train/werewolves movie). I live in Pennsylvania on a farm with my husband and lots of animals.
Anyway, nice to find this group and I look forward to interacting with you all in the future.

You got farther into it than me. After the hype I saw, I found too many dumb things going on and bailed before it ended.

Last night I watched The Cabin in the Woods (2012) in a first-time viewing. I'm still not exactly sure what I saw or how I feel about the film. It's one very unusual piece of work... Just when you think it's going to be another rather generic "Group of people go to an isolated cabin and bad things happen" film, it does a hard left turn and just gets curiouser and curiouser... I really need to see this one again... after giving it some time to process... I really liked the ending.

I got that type of feeling while I was watching. There's quite a lot to process in that one, both visually and aurally. Had I watched it during a non-challenge month I'd have watched it a 2nd time either the same day or within a couple of days.

I saw it on sale for $5 at BB. Said Scariest movie of 2015 on the back. So I took a shot. I lost on this one. I think that I'll throw it in the garbage and take the loss.

I'll be the first one to say that It Follows was a fantastic throwback to 70s slow burn horror that I thought also worked as compelling symbolism about the loss of innocence as adolescents transition into adulthood. The great cinematography and a suspenseful synth score really worked for the film
