The Endless (2017)

🎃 Horrorthon 2023 #10

This was VERY interesting! Requires a lot of paying attention and thinking, but it's worth it. If you liked the TV show "Lost", you would probably like this movie. Not anything too gory, the horror is mostly psychological.

House of Wax (1953)

🎃 Horrorthon 2023 #8 🔥 70th Anniversary

This was one of the first films released in COLOR 3D, and boy did they market it that way 😂 I couldn't even find a trailer that actually previewed the movie, just ones with SHOUTING about the 3D!

There was definitely the hokey "this movie's in 3D" camera shots that stick out like a sore thumb and make you roll your eyes when you're watching it "flat" 70 years later, but otherwise this was a good Vincent Price murder-mystery horror, with a creepy setting and some pretty damn impressive wax figures throughout.

I would have sworn I watched this before, but none of it seemed familiar. I think I was misrememebering it as some anthology that was set in a house of wax from the 60's or 70's.

🔥 35th Anniversary

More mystery, thriller, and even drama components than I expected -- actually gave the movie some good depth.

Sleepaway Camp (1983)

🔥 40th Anniversary

I know this movie is a "cult classic" or whatever, but it is hot garbage.😂
I'm glad I didn't bother saving it for my Halloween Horrorthon.

The composition of most of the scenes sucks; the character interactions and dialogue are so forced and unnatural; the acting is terrible, and half of the actors that are supposed to be "kids" are probably old enough to drink... it's just painful to watch.

Then my husband's like, "well we have to watch the 2nd one now", and I couldn't even make it 10 minutes into it. 😂 I didn't want to waste any more of my life.

Nightmare Cinema (2018)

Ranging from stupid to ridiculous to lame, get ready for bad stunt doubles and all-around absurdity. The only story even remotely worth watching was the 4th one about the mother.

The House of the Devil (2009)

SO MUCH about this film feels Stephen-King-adaptation-esque (and the brief appearance of Dee Wallace in the beginning makes it even moreso), then suddenly you're slammed into modern horror, then slide back into nostalgia, round-and-round again. Really enjoyable to watch, great style, great horror vibes.

Jack Goes Home (2016)

HOOOOO BOY, this was way more art-house than I was expecting. For about the first 50 minutes, it was all drama drama drama, and I'm wondering how is this a horror movie? Then he finally goes into the attic and finds The Box, and everything just goes berserk from there.

Lady in White (1988)

I never watched this as a kid, so I don't have any nostalgic connection to it at all. That being said: it was hard to sit through the incredibly cheesy Hallmark-channel-level 80's heartfelt treacle that comprised a good 50% of the movie. Almost made me quit a couple times. But then there are some genuinely frightening scenes, like a little girl getting strangled to death by an invisible assailant. There was also a surprising amount of heavy content relating to race relations (was this a "kid's" movie?!). In the end, I made it through the whole thing, the guy I figured was the killer from the beginning turned out to be the killer, and I'll probably never watch this again.

🎃 Horrorthon 2022 #34

Woooooow interpersonal relationships are complicated for young people nowadays.😬
This was better than I had anticipated, tho! One of those Rube Goldberg horror movies, in a very maze-like mansion with the power out, so you're never quite sure where anyBODY's at...😆

The Accursed (2021)

🎃 Horrorthon 2022 #31

I accidentally watched the "wrong" Accursed, but it worked out fine. This one is kinda complicated and slow, but very old-world magicky which was at least interesting, and some mystery in there. Very tragic ending.
