Fave Horror Films 💀

[Peter Wyngarde]

I like Christopher Lee's distinction between horror films and terror films. Horror films focus more on nasty, unpleasant details, while terror films set out to scare the pants off you without necessarily showing anything.

I'll buy that.

I'll take a mind-fuck any day over a bloody fuck.  Good lord that sounds horrible..

Halloween is upon us and the streaming services point to just that with a shit ton of offerings. Problem is, most of these movies are indeed tons of shit.

Last night I stumbled across one from 2022 simply called, X. There is a real Texas Chainsaw Massacre thing going on (even the van they drive). It's shot with a grainy look as it tries to capture the 1972 look in which it takes place.  Some pretty brutal stuff, and it has that hillbilly vibe to it.

They could make a movie with this horror in it.

There is a TENTH installment in the SAW franchise about to "drop" as they say. I thought the first one was great, but things went downhill from there. The new movie is different than the last 9 in that it is a sort of prequal. We'll now witness what originally happened to our main character and see first-hand what would drive him to do what he did.

The reviews are quite good as we have more of a story than blood and guts, which there still is of course. It is a much more intimate setting where the meat of the action plays out. I am actually looking forward to this one.

Thinking about mixing up a pitcher of Manhattans and watching Curse of the Demon/Night of the Demon.  It has become an October ritual like listening to the Best of Bauhaus.

I remember an old B&W horror film about an old woman who would turn into a beautiful young woman by stabbing men in the neck with a special ring and drinking whatever liquid the ring brought out.  Of course the men died.  Any idea what this was?
