  • The Haunting of Bly Manor

    ,

    I quite enjoyed last year’s The Haunting of Hill House, and so it was a no brainer that I was going to watch this sequel series. I’ve only watched the first episode, but I already prefer the setting — nothing like a big ol’ manor in the English countryside. I’ll of course need to watch…

  • The Dead Don’t Die

    —

    ,

    I had completely forgotten about this movie since being excited by the trailer when it had its theatrical release, and it came to mind yesterday and so I watched it, and overall I quite enjoyed it. I will say that the most enjoyable part of the movie for me was the first half hour, before…

  • House

    ,

    I skipped watching this when I did my 1986 movie marathon (it didn’t even make the list of 40 movies I watched for that), and I can’t even remember if I ever watched it even back in the day — what I do remember is the VHS box at rental shops. In a piece I…

  • Halloween: Resurrection

    ,

    As I mentioned after watching Halloween H20, I wanted to watch its direct sequel out of curiosity. The way they get out of Michael’s death in H20 is pretty ridiculous — and even more silly in that the producer forced the creators of H20 to develop this and put it in a contract while they…

  • Halloween H20: 20 Years Later

    ,

    I got interested in re-watching this after reading an article about it in the latest issue of SFX magazine earlier today. Coming after a few sequels that got worse and worse, this was supposed to be a proper coda for the series, while bringing back Jaime Lee Curtis as well (although it’s a coda that…

  • Death of Me

    ,

    I didn’t really know much about this movie other than the setting sounded interesting (a small island in Thailand) and it stars Maggie Q, who I tend to like in movies. I ended up quite enjoying this — it’s horror, but it’s also a mystery, as the main character is trying to understand why strange…

  • The Babysitter: Killer Queen

    —

    ,

    Well, as expected, I ended up having a blast watching this, and I think it’s as fun if not funner than the first one. I was really curious to see how they were going to follow-up the first one — considering the state of most of the characters at the end — and they ended…

  • The Trigger Effect

    —

    ,

    I ended up watching this after reading an article in the latest issue of Empire magazine on David Koepp, who is behind this year’s You Should Have Left, which I was planning on watching shortly — the article mentioned that both this and Stir of Echoes are well worth watching, and so I added both…
