Recommended Posts

Watched another 4 films after my post yesterday

 

Killer Klowns from Outer Space - Batshit mental but absolutely hilarious, well worth a watch

 

Sleepaway Camp 2 - turned it off just over halfway through, too many kills for stupid reasons

 

The Brain That Wouldn't Die - crazy premise but enjoyable

 

The Thing From Another World - absolute classic that spawned one of the greatest film remakes

The Guest is just wonderful. That soundtrack too.

 

Speaking of love letters to 80s teen slasher movies, I watched The Final Girls over the weekend. I was really looking forward to it based on the trailer, but it's not very good. A good premise and a couple of good performances can't save a poorly written script, and some of the more serious beats come across as laughable. Plus the studio forced a PG-13 rating on it, dunno how you can make an homage to 80s slashers without any norks or gore.

I normally like Adam Wingards movies, but thought this one was just terrible. Predictable all the way through and uninteresting characters. Was really looking forward to it too.

Another 3 films off the list today

 

Nightbreed - awesome film from start to finish, if you liked Hellraiser you'll love this for the dark tones it has

 

Zombies vs Strippers - shit, shit and more shit

 

Dolls - good film, had a Child's Play/ Puppet Master vibe to it

I used to have a real soft spot for Nightbreed, but I always felt it could have had a bit more to it.

I need to see the directors cut, I haven't seen it since my VCR swallowed my old copy of it sometime in the mid 90s.

If you can get it the US Netflix has the DC version. Really need to watch it myself.
