It's been 12 years and 6 days since my last confession
And there's nobody around to hear it. Good. I's nice and peaceful. I may move back, you know, like a retirement blog.
We shall see. -
Face Off
I've deleted my facebook account, temporarily. Deactivated it then if you like. At the moment, I'm finding it far too distracting and annoying. And there's several things I really need to focus on, and be positive about coming up in the next month or so, and I'm finding the levels of general douche-baggery on there are getting to me and either ( Read more... ) -
Halloween countdown film challenge 20 - 24
Been very busy, so not a lot of time to do this writing up business, and even now I aint got much so here goes.
Saturday watched The Skeleton Key. and another suggestion from Manuela (it's no wonder that bird never sleeps) A deep south haunted house film with some voodoo and witchcraft thrown in. Stonking performances from Kate Hudson and the ( Read more... ) -

Wednesday nights film was the scariest film on the list so far and in fact, the scariest film I've seen in a good while. Insidious - as suggested by the Italian beauty and total Mistress of Horror, Manuela Mattera. This one hit the spot. This is the first time in aaaaaaages, when I've had to go upstairs in the dark afterwards and flick on the ( Read more... ) -

There's a few " . . . .of the Dead" films coming up on the list, and I doubt if any of them will be as unusual as Pontypool - a radical take on the zombie contagion horror, suggested by the very radical Paul Jetten.
Unusual in as much as 97% of this film is either monologue from a radio broadcaster to the air, or dialogue between the three people ( Read more... ) -

Now where the hell was I? See I knew this would be a bugger to keep up. Not the film watching, that's great fun. But the keeping up writing about them? Damn me and my "not starting what I finish" ways. I WILL do this.
Okey dokey, Number 13 was a film based on a Clive Barker short story called Book of Blood, and suggested by G.R.A.V.I.T.Y boy ( Read more... ) -

The People Under the Stairs as suggested by untermensch
Everyone's seen this. The people under the stairs look like Slimelighters :D They really do. Not scary at all, but a couple of jump moments, and good fun!

Halloween countdown film challenge 10 and 11
Tuesday night was the night of Isolation as suggested by my good buddy Mr crazymeandave and to tell the truth, I'm not sure what the hell to make of this. One's thing's for certain, there's nothing quite like it. Tiny, mutant, psychotic, cow foetuses terrorise (bite, kill, eat and infect) a lonely small holder, his vet, and a couple of romantic runaways on a ( Read more... ) -

Candyman - As recommended by quite a few, but originally suggested by mark13 - I have not got one bad word to say about this. Absolutely amazing. The only real beef I have with it is why it took me so long to get round to seeing it. Remarkably, this film is nearly 20 years old (o_0) and you'd be forgiven for thinking it was made last year. Beautifully ( Read more... ) -

Thursday night, I watched The Descent, as suggested by Senor Jack. Now I've seen this once before, and generally films aren't as scary if you've seen them before - this one still is. A bunch of women go off cave exploring, get stuck, and when you think things can't possibly get any worse, they do. What starts off as claustrophobic and tense turns ( Read more... )
