Here are some favorites from @monsterpopcorn.bsky.social’s 31 Days of Horror marathon this year! Part 2! (Side note: Milk & Serial was rather good and very impressive as a super low-budget entry in the indie horror space.)

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 31 - THE BEYOND. This Lucio Fulci film is a bit fractured story-wise but it exists on a level of pure atmosphere, descending into a bizarre nightmare. There is some truly beautiful imagery and some creative schlocky gore. Find it on Blu-ray & Peacock! @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 30 - SCREAM 2. Williamson’s script and Craven’s direction amp up the thrills while also capitalizing on the events of the first film, giving dramatic weight to the characters and their dynamic relationships. Find it on 4K/Blu-ray and streaming on Max! @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 29 - BONES AND ALL. A mesmerizing tale about growing up and self-discovery through the lens of cannibals. It’s very well acted and features a score from Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross. BONES AND ALL can be found on Blu-ray and streaming on Amazon Prime! @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 28 - FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY’S. Does this movie live up to the creepiness of the original games? No, not really. It doesn’t ever get into the realm of unsettling/terrifying, but it’s still a decent, albeit flawed, watch. In theaters or on Peacock! @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 26 - MY BEST FRIEND IS A VAMPIRE. An ‘80s comedy that is like a John Hughes movie for the horror crowd. It’s quirky and bloodsuckingly fun! Find it on Vestron Video Blu-ray and for rent on VOD. @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 26 - GHOULIES. A weird, kind of nonsensical movie that has some cheesy acting, fun effects & a silly charm that makes for an enjoyable watch. I viewed this on the new MVD Visual 4K release & it looks REALLY good. Find it on 4K/Blu-ray & VOD rental. @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 25 - THE MIST. Easily one of my favorite Stephen King adaptations and a perfect microcosm examining how fear breaks down society. I watched the black & white version as it helps lend a lot more atmosphere. THE MIST is available on 4K/Blu-ray & on VOD. @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 23 - FROSTBITER: WRATH OF THE WENDIGO. Puppets, miniatures and stop-motion are all creatively employed here to give this lo-fi film, playing in the EVIL DEAD sandbox, ambitious scope. Find it on @VinegarSyndrome Blu-ray & rental on Prime. @deadringers.bsky.social

submitted 499 days ago • 0 comments

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 22 - SCREAM FOR HELP! This schlocky killer-stepdad flick is the perfect group movie to cackle along as the bizarre choices the characters make unfold. I had a blast with it! SCREAM FOR HELP is available on Blu-ray and available to rent on VOD. @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 21 - HOST! If you are in need of a quick horror movie that still delivers the goods, this comes highly recommended! At a brisk 57 min, HOST is an efficient screen-life film that is genuinely creepy. HOST is available on Blu-ray & streaming on Shudder @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 20 - THE BEING! Jackie Kong’s creature feature plays it fairly straight in regards to its B-grade monster movie roots. It has its charms, even if it is hesitant to show the creature for most of its runtime. Find it on Bluray & streaming on Prime. @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 19 - OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN! This movie features Peter Weller vs a conniving & pissed-off rat, duking it out for ultimate domination!

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 18 - THE WICKER MAN! One of the Unholy Trinity of films that birthed the folk horror genre & arguably the most well known.

submitted 504 days ago • 0 comments

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 17 - POLTERGEIST! 80s horror perfection! When it’s not indulging in spectral effects goodness, it’s letting the Freelings’ personalities & family dynamic shine through, making for an endearing experience. Find it on 4K/Blu-ray and streaming on Max. @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 16 - APPENDAGE! If the Babadook and Frank Henenlotter had a baby, it’d be this movie. This weird little flick, though flawed, does some solid work in manifesting mental illness into a monstrous creature. APPENDAGE is available to stream on Hulu. @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 15 - SLUGS! This bonkers movie is characters with weird logic choices vs killer carnivorous slugs!

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 13 - FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VI: JASON LIVES! It’s Friday October 13th, how could I not indulge in some Voorhees mayhem?!

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 10 - HELL HOUSE LLC! This found footage haunted house flick may have some typical trappings of the genre but it is creepy! It’s a good one to turn off all the lights, sit in the dark & get scared as hell! HELL HOUSE LLC is streaming on @shudder! @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 9 - PHENOMENA! An Argento film starring Jennifer Connelly that has 3 versions & 2 titles (in the U.S. it was released as CREEPERS). I prefer the 110-min International cut.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 8 - THE EXORCIST: BELIEVER! This one feels a bit like the 1st act of a 3-part story & the possession elements feel tame compared to the original film but it is a solid enough movie to warrant a watch. #TheExorcistBeliever is currently in theaters! @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 7 - END OF DAYS! Arnold Schwarzenegger vs the Devil! You get big explosions, questionable CGI, and a hard-edged Arnold telling the devil he’s a choir boy. I have a blast every time I watch it! END OF DAYS is available on Blu-ray and streaming on Tubi. @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 4 - HALLOWEEN H20: TWENTY YEARS LATER! This late 90s/Dimension-Films-era franchise entry is entertaining & breezy, even if the Myers mask is a bit wonky here, but it’s all in good fun! H20 is available on 4K/blu-ray & is streaming on AMC+. @deadringers.bsky.social

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 2 - COBWEB! Atmospheric and well shot with some genuinely creepy horror visuals, this unseen 2023 release is worth a watch. Expect some THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS vibes, at least for the first half. COBWEB is available on Blu-ray and VOD. @deadringers.bsky.social
