The original Fright Night is one of my all time favorites so this really didn´t have a chance but it had it´s moments. 5/10
Goosebumps (2015)
Don´t know anything about the books but this was entertaining enough film aimed mainly for younger audience. Lots of cgi and Jack Black. 5/10

Decided to uncharacteristically give in to the internet pressure and check out the new Hocus Pocus 2 movie. While it wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be. It still wasn't great or worth the 30 year wait to me either. Overall just another unnecessary fanfare sequel that really wasn't needed. But it IS a Disney kid's movie so I suppose in that light it's actually pretty good.

Gothic horror film directed by the genre maestro Mario Bava. Brilliant lights and shadow, nice colours and cool cinematography - typical Bava style. Daliah Lavi looks stunning and enjoys when Christopher Lee uses the whip which was too much for the censors back in the day. Good stuff 6/10

Really like the basic idea in this movie and it´s not bad by any means but imo the original ending is so much more meaningful and better. Then New Line listened airhead teen test audience and changed that so the movie feels more like a product. They made the right choice of course and the movie grossed over 100 million so who am i to blame 5/10

Terrifier II (2022) - Ahahaha, this was so much fun! Art and his skinny naked bum was just as delightful and even more charming than the first film. I was cracking up hard every time he mocked his victims with cry faces, violins and shocked face. It was a blast to watch this with an audience. Endless amounts of juicy carnage!! 8/10
The Creeping (2022) - This got better as it went along. It was more a depressing twisted drama but when the weirdness struck it was fun too. 6/10
The Ou*waters (2022) - The title got censored just cos of what it can make in the middle lol. I definitely need to see this again. As unfortunately I think the fact that it was the last film of the 2 day horror film festival after only having 2 hours sleep each night (cos I just get too damn excited) hampered how I woulda felt about it. Also some things benefit from the big screen experience but I feel this might be the other way around. A small living room candlelit viewing might be more suited for this one. Made me laugh towards the end as one guy let out a sound of horror at a part I won't spoil 6/10
Eating Miss Campbell (2022) - It was an experience.
Festival in joke 5/10
Powertool Cheerleaders Vs The Boyband Of The Screeching Dead (2022) - This musical had some funny moments but the songs were crappy. 5/10
Final Summer (2022) - I had no idea what was going on here. I mean at first I thought it was a fan made Friday The 13th film but then just a homage maybe. I dunno. Whatever it was going for didn't work. Although there was some nice parts and funny scenes from Rico Whitehead. 5/10
Short films rank:
Curse Of Baxton House (202?) - 8 Bug Bites (2021) - 7 Every Time We Meet For Ice Cream Your Whole ****ing Face Explodes (2021) - 7 Pumpkin Boy (202?) - 6 The Microscope (2022) - 6 Dodging The Dead (202?) - 6 Hairsucker (2022) - 6 Caregiver (2022) - 6 The Trunk (2022) (Laidlaw) - 5 For The Love Of The Craft (202?) - 5 Sucker (2022) (Austin) - 5 Lethalogica (2021) - 5 A Whole Host (2022) - 4 All You Can Eat (2022) - 4 Familiar (2021) (Ellison) - 4 Wuurm (2022) - 4 Incubus (2022) - 4 Guts (2021) (McInroy) - 4

Second Amicus horror film and this was based on a short story by Robert Bloch. The skull of Marquis de Sade is haunting people and especially Mr Maitland (Peter Cushing). Few cool scenes in this one (the floating skull) and i just loved Maitland´s study. Christopher Lee was also in this one. 6/10
Monster Dog (1984)
This was fun low budget film directed by Italian Claudio Fragasso but shot in Spain. Alice Cooper stars as rock star Vincent Raven and his family has a curse. A group goes to a mansion to shoot a music video but the moon is full and you know what happens next. For horror freaks and Cooper fans. 6/10

House Of The Gorgon (2019) - Great cast, Veronica Carlson bringing the class, to this awfully executed film. Supposed to be a homage to Hammer but more like a mickeytake. 3/10
The Mad Magician (1954) - Vincent Price was a groovy mad magician with all his mission impossible masks 7/10
Dark Tower (1987) - Such a pity. I dunno if it was, but it had a lovely made for TV, dingy feel with some really odd stuff happening but then became a bit dull after the halfway point. 6/10
Smile (2022) (Finn) - Talk about a trailer completely misrepresenting a film. The whole cinema laughed their heads off watching it the other month but it was completely different with the film. Only went to see it because had time to kill between 2 live shows and glad for it. Sosie Bacon was outstanding and I just loved the depressing energy about it. It's one of the most horrifying things to even think about, that everybody just thinks you're mad when something awful is happening. Bit too long but a nice pleasant surprise. 7/10
Piercing (2018) - Mia Wasikowska and Paul Rudd lite meet up to enact their twisted violent fantasies on one another. This horror/black comedy had a bit of a sickly atmosphere at times and quite funny at others. I was amused at them playing the Tenebrae music while scanning up and down miniature buildings in the end credits. 7/10

FD sequel was more of the same with a plot that was not that exciting. The film starts with a highway crash sequence which was the highpoint of the movie. 4/10
The Birds (1963)
This classic still looks amazing and includes few breathtaking scenes. Tippi Hedren was great and i love those Albert Whitlock matte paintings! 8/10
Goosebumps 2 (2018)
More of the same which was a bit of a disappointment but i enjoyed the lead kids and their everyday problems. This time the dummy wants to bring halloween to life but the monsters don´t do anything! Well, those gummy bears did try 5/10

Sacrifice (2020) - Some nice creepy foreign country vibes. Barbara Crampton was fun in her role. 6/10
Beasts Clawing At Straws (2020) - Really disappointing black comedy. Only the second Korean film I've rated under a six. 5/10
The Mutations (1974) - An alright sort of Freaks remake. 6/10
The Return Of The Vampire (1943) - It's a pretty basic Drac -- sorry vampire film But it's so enjoyably cosy with foggy gorgeousness on every corner and some lovely face melting 7/10
The Seventh Sign (1988) - Yeah nah. 5/10

I like this werewolf flick written and directed by Eric "The Hitcher" Red. Nice downbeat feel, cool cast and the werewolf looks great. 7/10
Rabid (2019)
This Soska sisters remake was ok but unnecessary. Watch the Cronenberg original instead. 5/10

The Ones Below (2015) - Woo, I thought this was gonna be like any ten a penny wacky neighbours flick. But I was super anxious for the whole 80 mins and it was twisted!!! I loved it. 8/10
The Dunwich Horror (1970) - Yeah, I have no idea what I sat through, that was bloody odd! Had to be part comedy surely? Dean Stockwell's constant smirk face was cracking me up anyway! 7/10
The Killer Trainer (2018) - Crappy TV film, passed the time. 3/10
Cry Of The Banshee (1970) - Nothing wow, but a good bit of witchy/monster fun. 7/10
Final Destination III (2006) - Still enjoyable but a noticeable drop down from the first 2 films. 6/10
