Brain Damage > Basket Case

 

Do you have the time?

 

gonna do the extra credit doc today, Cropsey

 

I’m a SUD counselor and I show this to my Aftercare group every year. I love seeing their responses to Brain Damage.

 

Basket Case is better but they're both so damn good

 

Idk what I'm doing right now. I watched Jigsaw this morning. Extremely dumb but fun

 

Basket Case’s pacing isn’t as good and doesn’t have as amazing of an intro to the monster, but it has the apartment freak out scene. They’re probably both pretty equal haha.

 

Halfway through Vampyre, it's... not bad, or so-bad-it's-good, just kinda boring. but the music goes hard for no reason

I wouldn't have guessed that this came out three years after Hellraiser, it feels so dated

Edit: yeah I didn't like this at all. But for it to make a list of "trash horror" I was kinda expecting(/hoping?) it would be terrible

 

Kinda wanna go off script and watch No One Will Save You. went to lunch with some friends and everyone was talking about it

 

I gotta rewatch tonight because I fell asleep like 10 minutes in on Friday

 

Holy cow, Slime City is wild. Somewhere between The Stuff, Street Trash, and Evil Dead. Truly gross out putrid practical effects too. If I watched this with any sort of nausea, it would’ve been too much.

 

Sold!

 

That's been on my list forever. Just saw that it's on Tubi!

 

Her fashion and decor in No One Will Save You was so cute ugh I need to learn how to sew. I need her clothes and her house. Minus the aliens. Watching the end now cause I fell asleep to it last night

 

I watched Huesera last night, pretty good movie

 

halfway done! here's my progress (with links to my reviews)

1 - a movie that takes place on halloween - A Haunting in Venice
2 - a body horror movie from the 80's - Hellraiser 1987
3 - a horror remake - Hellraiser 2022
4 - a cryptid movie - It Lives Inside
5 - a Romero horror film you've never seen - Night of the Living Dead
6 - a movie starring an actress born in 1993 - Nope
7 - a movie featured in the book “Bleeding Skull! A 1990s Trash-Horror Odyssey” - Vampyre
8 - a horror movie featuring an inanimate object as the antagonist - Willy's Wonderland

 

Posting this for the dolts (like myself) who started the series on Netflix but didn't finish it before they dropped it. Literally started it 2 days before it disappeared this past summer lol

 

Hell yeah, time for a rewatch

 

Watched New Nightmare for the first time. I dug it. I'd only seen the first three Elm Street movies prior to this.

Randomly decided to rewatch The Last Exorcism, and I still think it's a pretty effective found footage horror elevated by the awesome Patrick Fabian. It's probably not good, but I'm morbidly curious about The Last Exorcism Part II because they brought back Ashley Bell, who was great in the first movie, and Julia Garner is in it ha.

 

Very much enjoyed The Last Exorcism.

 

The Last Exorcism is good, the second Last Exorcism (lol) is not

 

For some reason I always think about The Haunting in Connecticut when I think of The Last Exorcism and it still baffles me that they made a sequel to that called The Haunting in Connecticut 2: The Ghosts of GEORGIA. Like, how do you hold onto the og title when it's not even set in that state anymore?!

 

Criterion Channel throwing down the gauntlet this year

 

Donnie Darko is art house horror?
