Horrorween Day 27 / 31: The Thing (1982) dir. John Carpenter: "We're gonna draw a little bit of everybody's blood... 'cause we're gonna find out who's The Thing. Watchin' Norris in there gave me the idea that... maybe every part of him was a whole, every little piece was an individual animal with a built-in desire to protect its own life. Ya see, when a man bleeds, it's just tissue, but blood from one of you Things won't obey when it's attacked. It'll try and survive... crawl away from a hot needle, say."

Sometimes I wonder... If people over there knows that Friday the 13th 2 exists because of a pretty big fan of horror calls Mario Bava.

Mario Bava is the famous director of Bay of blood. And this is my picture of me with my favorite hat ever.

I mean Jason is one of the bests but the firsy movie is tje classic 80s slasher that we love, the character of Jason looks nice but for me its not the same. I love the second part and the 3rth part but My fsv is the first one.

What do you think about it guys? Did you know this about Friday the third part 2?

*holds out empty pillowcase* Trick or treat!

For you, an excerpt from the story I intended to post for Horrorween, and didn't manage to finish in time!

“King Edmund, it has been many moons since our royal sister disappeared,” retorted the queen, standing very straight. “Many and many have gone to seek her, and found nothing of her, and no trace of her. According to the magic of the centaurs, the white magic from Aslan himself eons ago, there is no sign that our royal sister ever trod this land, though we know and remember that she was once here.” “And yet,” he said in a voice of finality, “I go to seek her. We have sought during the day: perhaps the creatures of the night may know something more.” “I would not that I lose you also, royal brother. And thy royal brother the High King Peter would be sore distressed at thy disappearance, I’ll warrant.” “By the Lion’s Mane, I shall go,” exclaimed Edmund. “I cannot sit still here if there is the possibility of our sister still living. And the complete absence of her trace is what gives me hope: for it reeks of magic, the magic of Jadis the foul Witch. I believe I can break that magic and find her, if any can.” “Bold words, royal brother. If thou art determined—Lion go with thee.” And she drew him towards her and kissed his forehead with all the solemnity ever practised by Queen Susan the Gentle of Narnia. “I thank thee, royal sister: and with thy blessing, and that of Aslan himself, I shall go on my quest.”

I haven't finished this tale, but I hope you appreciate this snippet! @starsaroundsaturn forehead kisses, thought of you when I wrote it

October 14th, 2018- A Quiet Place (2018), John Krasinski

As a horror movie fanatic I always get really excited when horror gets some mainstream attention and this movie did so well in theaters and got great reviews to the point of some speculative Oscar noms. Not to mention Jim from the office wrote, directed, starred in and even did motion capture for the monster in this movie. It’s cool to see a pretty well respected star give this much attention to horror. He called this movie a love letter to his kids which is kind of morbidly hilarious considering what the kids in this movie go through, but I get it. This movie, at it’s core is about parenting and protecting the ones you love. 

You could probably make an educated guess from the title, but this movie is about monsters who can hear really well. So you have to be quiet 1000% percent of the time. The family we follow throughout the film is already equipped for this because their oldest daughter is deaf. I read somewhere that the sign language in this movie is pretty legit. Respect for good research. Also the sound editing is really well done. It’s subtle, but after watching for a while you notice little things like that the sound drops out completely when they focus on the deaf character. The movie is understandably pretty muted so when loud noises surface it gets into jump scare territory, which for me would usually take points away, but I feel like it’s unavoidable in this case. 

The acting is really strong. There is an extended scene where Emily Blunt attempts to give birth silently and it looks excruciating. She did a great job with this. 

My only gripe is the ending. It cuts off in a place that I feel like is a structurally “good ending” from a storytelling perspective, but maybe is not the most satisfying ending from a viewing perspective. 

A Quiet Place is very well done. Making great strides in horror. For that it gets an 8.5 out of 10 from me. SHHHHHHH!!!!!!
