Realized I've never actually watched this in its entirety. Apparently I've been mixing it up with Sleepwalkers for some reason -- so thinking I had already seen it.

Candyman (1992)
🎃 Horrorthon 2018 #34
Classic. The first for-reals horror movie I ever watched in my childhood -- terrified me, and forever marked Tony Todd as the first of many iconic horror actors in my mind.

An American Werewolf in Paris (1997)

Haven't seen this since I rented it on VHS from my small hometown's gas station back before the turn of the century, and the reason for that is: it's awful.

LOL this movie. Not a whole lotta slashing until the last 20 minutes-or-so, but WOW is there plenty of disco and sexual harassment.

Insidious (2010)
🎃 Horrorthon 2018 #16
Hadn't seen this yet; I have avoided a lot of the exorcism/paranormal-activity movies of the early 21st century. This was OK, there were some awesome spooks -- mostly involving the demon -- but overall it kinda fell flat for me. Glad I watched it, but won't be adding it to our library any time soon.

Horror Express (1972)
🎃 Horrorthon 2018 #4
Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing and Telly Savalas, oh my! This is one of my personal faves -- an underappreciated gem of classic sci-fi horror. Excellent cast, some great one-liners sprinkled throughout, solid practical effects/makeup, and a surprise twist at the end!

Suspiria (1977)
🎃 Horrorthon 2018 #1
Beautifully composed, the score provided excellent atmospheric soundscape, and the restored DVD version that I watched was gorgeous -- BUT, it was very much a 70's Italian film: the overacting and nonsensical behavior of the characters, and the incongruous storyline with inexplicable plot leaps. OH and the red tempera paint blood, lol.
