31 Days of Horror - Day 20 - Apostle (2018) directed by Gareth Evans. A rewatch, I originally watched this when it first came out. I love me a good (or even not so good) folk horror. This has a lot of the elements needed. The mood is on point, the score and the acting are great. I don’t know if I’ll watch it again but I did enjoy it.
31 Days of Horror - Day 19 - The Substance (2024) directed by Coralie Fargeat. Oooooh. I loved this. I’m sure everyone and their mother is reviewing this movie so I won’t go into detail but do go in blind (and with a relatively strong stomach). This movie reminded me how much I love body horror, all the classic Cronenberg, that random movie I used to be obsessed with called Society. Fantasique.
31 Days of Horror - Day 18 - Altitude (2019) directed by Nicole Scherer (short). Holy hells, this was fantastic. The atmosphere, the cinematography, the score…it was all just so unsettling and yet also so beautiful. Gave me shivers. So I watched it again and it was even better the second time.
31 Days of Horror - Day 17 - Candyman (2021) directed by Nia DaCosta. I had high hopes for this, maybe too high, as I love the original film (and its score, frick it’s so damn good!) so much. I did enjoy elements of this, the shadow puppets were cool, I loved the connections to the previous film, it was stylish and pretty but it did get muddled in places. So, I’m not sure how I feel about it overall. Seeing Tony Todd at the end was awesome though!
31 Days of Horror - Day 16 - Monsterland episode 1 Port Fourchon, Louisiana (2020) directed by Anne Sewitsky. I recently read North American Lake Monsters by Nathan Ballingrud and loved it. Episode one was quite promising, so I’m looking forward to watching more…
31 Days of Horror - Day 15 - American Horror Story: Murder House (episodes 1-4) (2011) …okay so not technically a horror film but I did watch several episodes of AHS: Murder House because I was just in the mood for it hehe. This is the first time I’ve watched this again since it first came out in 2011 and I watched it with my parents and little brothers (eek!). I was surprised how much of it I remembered…I guess it made an impression!
31 Days of Horror - Day 14 - Carrie (2013) directed by Kimberly Peirce. I watched the original Carrie at an all-nighter horror movie marathon sleepover when I was 14. The final shot scared the living daylights out of me. This remake is okay, not terrible, but not amazing either. Julianne Moore was a standout as the awful mother, and the added element of cyber bullying (something I was a victim of) made it extra sad. Poor Carrie.
31 Days of Horror - Day 13 - Under the Skin (2013) directed by Jonathan Glazer. Wow. Words are hard to find to express how I feel about this movie. It’s very strange, unsettling, and distressing. The score was phenomenal. I am so intrigued. I really want to read the book now…
31 Days of Horror - Day 12 - The Deliverance (2024) directed by Lee Daniels. I had high hopes for this as I usually love “religious horror” but it was mediocre, tedious, dull. Maybe I just wasn’t in the right headspace, I don’t know. The acting was decent but otherwise… eh. Couldn’t even find a good gif haha.
31 Days of Horror - Day 11 - Infinity Pool (2023) directed by Brandon Cronenberg. This has been on my to-watch list for ages…and I very nearly watched it with my mum and by the gods I am thankful I did not. Mind-melting and so original. I really enjoyed this and the cast were *chef’s kiss*. Best to go in blind…
31 Days of Horror - Day 10 - Lights Out (2016) directed by David F. Sandberg. Okay, another rewatch but it’s been 8 years since I watched it (when it first came out). Oh lordy, this one really creeps me out. The dark, oh the dark. Nyctophobics beware.
31 Days of Horror - Day 9 - Run Rabbit Run (2023) directed by Daina Reid. I decided i just HAD to watch a movie that I have never seen before! This was an interesting one, a slow-burn which was imbued with a heavy foreboding. The countryside really added to the creeping sense of dread. I haven’t watched any Australian horror in a while…maybe I should revisit Lake Mungo (eek!)
31 Days of Horror - Day 8 - Horror of Dracula (1958) directed by Terence Fisher. Ah, I will always have a soft spot for Christopher Lee’s Dracula. In fact, he is probably my favourite Dracula. It has been many a year since I watched this film (I worked my way through all the Hammer Horror Dracula films as a teenager) but it was just as enjoyable as I remember. Lee’s Dracula is so sensual, so imposing…I can’t believe how racy this film must’ve been for 1958…mmm, saucy. The ridiculous(ly good) music, the lurid colours and the gaudy and sumptuous set designs just add to the deliciousness. I know that I’m rewatching all my faves, and I don’t care. They’re just too good. That moment when Dracula brushes his face against Mina’s, oh my goodness…
31 Days of Horror - Day 7 - Martin (1977) directed by George A. Romero. Oof. I remember watching Martin for the first time the summer I turned 18. I fell in love. I have seen an obscene number of vampire movies and this one is different to any other. John Amplas is just phenomenal as the titular character, the film’s memory/fantasy sequences are so haunting and beautiful, and the story is just so…tragic. Also, on a shallow note, Martin was just so damn pretty.
31 Days of Horror - Day 6 - The Blood on Satan’s Claw (1971) directed by Piers Haggard. Another rewatch (oops hehe). I love folk horror. This was a bit sillier than I remember (it’s been a while) but still enjoyable. I love the kooky theme music and the pervasive unsettling feeling. Linda Hayden’s performance was very enjoyable. Now I kind of want to go and rewatch a bunch of Hammer Horror movies (particularly the Dracula ones).
31 Days of Horror - Day 5 - Smile (2022) directed by Parker Finn. Smile had some interesting and spooky elements, an unsettling “creature” design, and was engaging enough. However I found it overly long (or drawn out) and less compelling than something in a similar vein like It Follows…
31 Days of Horror - Day 4 - Barbarian (2022) directed by Zach Cregger. Woah so glad I went into this one blind because it did not disappoint. I had no idea what to expect and I really enjoyed myself. Disturbing and unsettling, somehow fast-paced and yet a slow-burn simultaneously. Very well acted. I would recommend.
