From Australia we get a film about a single mom, her son and a book that scares the crap out of them and us.
Continue reading “The Babadook (2014)”Devoted fans had to wait 18 years to find out the fates of Mike and Reggie. I’m not sure how happy they were after all this time.
I was too busy to write yesterday, but I did watch these movies on nights 9 and 10 of my 31 nights of horror marathon.
Continue reading “Double feature! Phantasm III and IV!”You can tell from yesterdays post that I really enjoyed Phantasm. How does the sequel stack up?

Continue reading “Horror night number four. It Follows (2014)”Holy crap, this movie was AMAZING! I was not expecting to enjoy it nearly as much as I did. This is only the third night of my month of movie monographs (yeah, that was a stretch, I know) and I can already, whole heartedly, recommend this one if you’re looking for something to get your heart pounding on October 31st.
No excessive gore, no torture, no drugs, nudity, protracted fight scenes or gross out imagery. This movie is all about atmosphere and sheer suspense.
Continue reading “Third night out of thirty one horrors”Yeah, another lie, I watched Drag me to Hell right after I watched Last House on the Left last night, but I enjoyed this one much more.
