The Thing from Another World
The Thing from Another World
This movie was one of those movies I mentioned a few posts back, a movie that I had been avoiding for one reason or another. This one I was avoiding because I am a HUGE fan of Carpenter, a HUGE fan of Kurt Russell, and a HUGE fan of The Thing. I was worried that I would end up not liking this movie because I would inevitably try to compare it to the 1982 version and be disappointed. I am happy…

I don’t think I need to say anything about this movie that other much more intelligent people have already said. This was a really beautiful movie. I mean like every scene looked like something deserving to be framed and hung on the wall. The way that Eggers used light and shadow, old school filming techniques, and the sets really made this movie feel like a piece of artwork. The way it is shot…

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 14: 31
I am mad, so this might sound like a rant, which it kind of is: I really enjoyed this movie. I have a response to some of the criticisms I see here and elsewhere: If you are tired of the “Rob Zombie Aesthetic”, why are you still watching his movies? I have seen way too many criticisms here and on other horror movie sites where people have said that they are tired of the Rob Zombie setting of…

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 13: Jack the Reaper
I’m not going to spend too many calories on this one. This is a low budget, badly acted movie that is saved by the hour of filming they got with Tony Todd, and it was obvious that he showed up on set and they said “Tony, just go. Sorry, I mean, Mr. Todd.” Bad, but bad enough that with some friends it could be a fun movie to riff, so have at it!

The Wicker Man
I have quite a bit I want to say about this movie, and it may be disjointed and free of logic, but I want to start out with this: If you have not seen this movie and know nothing about it, I highly suggest you see it before it is ruined for you. Stop reading this now, as I will likely spoil the movie for you. I even chose this specific movie poster because I feel like the original itself is a…

This one drags a lot in the middle, but boy, does it ramp up the insanity that was the first one. I suggest making a night of it, and watch all three in one night.

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 10: Texas Chainsaw
So…yeah. This is not a great movie. It has so many little problems that probably could have been solved with someone using common sense, maybe reading the script for inconsistencies, maybe someone to say “no” to the writers, producers, or director. Instead, we are left with a movie that is filled with stupid situations, stupid people, and bad CG for special effects. Which is truly a crime, as…

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 9: The Bye Bye Man
When reviewing this movie over on Letterboxd, I came to a realization: I appreciate so many bad horror movies because I get to watch them with my two best friends, my sons. We constantly riff the movie, pausing to make jokes or observations on things. It becomes a fun and engaging exercise, and often causes me to forgive some of the sins of bad movies. So for me, bad movies have brought me and…

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 8: Pitch Black
Definitely one of the top 10 sci-fi/horror crossover movies for me. I own two copies of this one, the original and the uncut. It is a fun movie, and while my son was mentioning the similarities to the Alien franchise, the IMDB trivia page was confirming that this script came from what was originally meant to be an Alien sequel.

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 7: Mom and Dad
I’m not going to say a lot about this one, as it seems to be a love it or hate it type of movie. I felt that it dragged a little in the middle with the flashbacks. However, one flashback hit kind of hard, on this, the day of my birthday. Nicolas Cage rants in a middle-age melt down, and his rant hit home pretty hard. Otherwise, the ending let me down a little as well. Overall though, I enjoyed…

Happy Birthday to Me! The Junji Ito Collection!
Happy Birthday to Me! The Junji Ito Collection!
I have been a fan of Junji Ito’s work for a long time. My first encounter with his work would have been a few years back, when someone was circulating a translated version of his story The Enigma of Amigara Fault. It tells the story of people finding holes that are their exact shape in the side of a mountain. I found out that one of Junji Ito’s greatest fears is enclosed spaces, so I could see…

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 7: Hell Fest
In my mini-rant over on on Letterboxd, I expressed my disappointment in the fandom and how some of them tend to be harder on modern slasher movies than they are on 70s and 80s slasher movies. Every time I see the criticism (or write it myself, I acknowledge I am part of the problem) “doesn’t add anything new to the genre”, it feels like we, living in a post “Scream” world, will rarely find a…

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 6: Shark Night
Look, this was not a great movie, but seriously, it wasn’t as bad as all the reviews give it. It is silly, it is downright bad at times, and the characters are all pretty cookie cutter (if you have seen this movie, you will get that joke), but the acting was pretty solid, the story wasn’t the worst, and the action kept the movie going. The CG sharks…ouch. But not too terrible of a movie! The…

Probably one of my top 10 horror/sci-fi crossover movies. The first time I watched this movie, I admit that I kind of didn’t pay attention to it, had it playing in the background while doing other things. That was probably 10 years ago. I re-watched it again a few years after that, and I loved it. Just loved it. This movie has a lovely mix of creepiness, mystery, horror, and science fiction, and…

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 4: Contagion
In 2011 when this movie came out, it was classified as Science Fiction, Drama, and Thriller. In 2020, it should be classified as Horror and Documentary. Watching this movie in 2020 was really shocking, because so many things in this movie predicted what is happening right now. If this isn’t a horror movie, I don’t know what is.

I had avoided this movie for a while, but not because I didn’t want to see. I had read and seen a lot of reviews about this movie, including a few spoilers, and was soured by the bad reviews. At the same time, I had read a lot of positive reviews for it as well. Because of this, I avoided it because I was afraid of being disappointed in it, especially after being spoiled.First, let me say…

The 12 Horror Days of Christmas, Day 2: Lizzie Borden Took an Ax
Well, this was certainly not a horror movie, much to our chagrin, but honestly, it wasn’t a bad movie. Especially considering it is a made for TV Lifetime movie. I mean, this really boils down to it being more of a courtroom drama, but honestly, I kind of enjoyed it. It definitely leaned heavily on the “she was guilty” concept, which was a little disappointing. But the gore on old Daddy Borden’s…
