October horror movies
Use this thread to recommend horror movies or just talk about your favorites. Lately, I've watched the following:
SLEEPAWAY CAMP II: UNHAPPY CAMPERS
Very self-aware horror with a heavy dash of humor and intentionally corny dialogue, the sort of horror flick I don't usually enjoy, but this one was so over the top with creative death scenes that it's hard not to love it. Blood and boobs everywhere! My favorite scene is where Angela drowns that chick into the outhouse. Classy, high-brow horror! I'll give this one an 8/10
SLEEPAWAY CAMP III: TEENAGE WASTELAND
Not bad at all and much better than I expected. Never boring, full of the same trashy scenes, crude language and plenty of nudity that the second movie contained, but the murder scenes are pretty tame by comparison. A movie that's gleefully without artistic merit. The characters are all annoying and stereotypical and it's fun watching them die. 6.5/10
SORORITY HOUSE MASSACRE
Kind of a depressing flick, actually, maybe for it's slow, dreamy pace and the gloomy synth music? Dull and lifeless characters and a typical, nonsensical slasher plot. Points for lots of bloody knife killings, that's about it. 5/10
BLOODY BIRTHDAY
Pretty lame. There's no guessing game as to who the killer(s) are, as it's given away at the beginning of the movie, so what you're left with is 3 annoying kids running around killing the neighborhood in some fairly stupid ways. Best scene is where the chick takes an arrow to the eye, that was pretty good. Some nice boobs in this one, an ass shot but no bush . 4.5/10
I plan on watching the following tonight:
BAY OF BLOOD aka TWITCH OF THE DEATH NERVE
One of my alltime favorite movies, can't wait to see it in HD. It's beautifully shot with splashy colors filling the screen, total eye candy. Some very morbid scenes and creative killings, some of which were copied in Friday the 13th part II if I remember correctly. If you like slashers and you haven't seen this one yet, you're truly missing out. Great ending, too. 9/10
BLACK SUNDAY
Considered by most to be Bava's greatest work. I've seen bits and pieces of it, but never in it's entirety. Looking forward to this one...
