20th anniversary showing in theater!
Just as much of a wild & crazy ride as I remember, lol.
There was an introduction by Rob Zombie, in which he says the house they used was the same one from The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, so I'm gonna have to check that out.

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.

Wow, Joan Crawford is something else!
This was a really enjoyable watch, much suspense.

Since it's been hot as hell this week, I figured it was a perfect time to watch the original Hills Have Eyes for the first time. Wes Craven just KNOWS how to make things disturbing.

The twist in this one is MESSED👏 UP!👏
You think you know what it is... but then it's WORSE.

This was just slow, hard to follow, incongruous, with many discrepancies that are never addressed. Not sure why it has such good ratings on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes, it's not scary and kinda boring.

Hadn't seen this movie in a loooooooooong time, like 20 years -- WOW, is this hard to watch! Straight-up gut-churning psychotic behavior, and nerve-wracking impotence of recourse. Such powerful performances all around. Now I need to dig up a copy of the original to watch.

HA! This one was fun. Very cool modern-day twisted fairy tale. Don't think I've ever wanted so badly for someone to FINALLY CUT THRU THAT DAMN ROPE!!

🎃 Horrorthon 2022 #19 🔥 40th Anniversary
One of the better horror flicks to come out of 1982, with immensely creepy performances from Jack Palance and Martin Landau.

I stumbled on this movie earlier this year while obsessively searching for the best horror soundtracks on vinyl I could get my hands on. Finally watched the actual movie... it was better than I expected! Intense! Much better than the trailer indicates, FYI. With the doofy commercials at the beginning and the vintage style and effects, it's like watching an old VHS tape!

To try to explain all the ways in which this movie was horrible is impossible.
The characters' behavior and the actors' performances were straight out of a bad porno tape. The Foley tech was FROM HELL! and apparently "Belial" (the deformed creature) was attempting to have sex with the corpse of a woman he murdered?! AWFUL!!
I've read articles that say this movie is groundbreaking, and I just absolutely cannot understand the reasoning behind that viewpoint -- it's👏just👏garbage.👏
Even "for 1982": it's👏garbage.👏
Even "for low-budget 1982": it's👏garbage.👏
Garbage👏garbage👏garbage👏TRASH!👏
