Halloween 4-5-6

Horror, Thriller

It’s that time again and horror buffs are re-watching the Halloween series. Trouble is nowadays that the series has four timelines! For this year I chose the option of watching the Michael vs. Jamie storyline covered in “Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers”, “Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers” and “Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers”.

Forced Entry (2019)

Horror

“Forced Entry” is a tough-to-watch exploitation cinema homage that’s heavy on the gore and leaves an impression.

Horror

Every horror fan knows “The Amityville Horror”. Maybe all of them haven’t seen it but it was such a success that it’s become a classic in the genre despite the fact that practically every critic has panned it; whether when initially released or later.

Madman (1981)

Final Exam (1981)

Horror, Thriller

“Final Exam” is a relatively bloodless slasher that is clearly very influenced by “Halloween” (1978) in that it honestly goes for scares and tries to build up a brooding atmosphere.

Haunted House of Horror (1969)

Horror, Thriller

A classic British horror film not necessarily in terms of quality but rather as a fun time capsule of an era long gone and a mood that was only attainable for a short period of time.

Detox (1999)

Less than a year ago (27th June to be exact) I posted a review on “D-Tox” In conclusion of my earlier review I mentioned that the film was in serious need of some loving from niche labels (Arrow Video, Scream Factory etc.) and, in a small way, that has happened with MVD Marquee Collection’s Blu-ray release that came out on April 14th…

Five Dolls for an August Moon (1970)

Horror, Mystery, Thriller

“Five Dolls for an August Moon” is a wonderfully entertaining example of massive style over substance. The gleeful Bava was peeved at not getting what he asked for so he delivered something entirely different than anyone expected.
