“It’s not a monster movie. It’s a supernatural thriller.”
Silent Hill – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 13 / Film #4
This movie is way too long and way too convoluted. I’m sure the game of which it’s based is very expansive so it was hard to condense it fluidly. The art direction is great and it looks gorgeous. And there’s a little bit of blood in it. Of all the crazy imagery and events in …

Omen, The (1976) – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 13 / Film #3
Exquisite supernatural thriller from director Richard Donner. This was my first time seeing it and even though I already knew the outcome, I was still riveted. Wonderful screenplay and believable performances. Love David Warner, always a commanding presence.
Snuff – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 13 / Film #2
A cult lead by a Charles Manson-like figure is on a murdering spree. This movie is terrible from the awful dubbing, to the amateurish editing and continuity errors and to the audacious attempt to make the audience like as though they’ve just witnessed a real murder at the end of the film. The whole movie …

Deathdream – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 13 / Film #1
A young soldier returns home from Vietnam the very night his family has been notified of his death and like many others before him, war has changed him. A creepy, effective horror film for director Bob Clark and the first film of makeup effects guru, Tom Savini. Great aging and decaying from the master.
Creepshow – Quickie Review
One of the first horror I saw as a kid, and it’s still one of my favourites. It’s still as gloriously gory as ever, it still manages to give me the willies in some places and I don’t get creeped out that easily. The special effects have maintained their impact and I actually get and …

“Here’s President Lincoln and his assassin John Wilkes Booth. One of my few concessions to the macabre.”
Porky’s – Quickie Review
If you’re reading this, then you already know why every teenage boy of the ’80s watched this movie, but it actually turned out to be quite funny. It’s the film equivalent of Hooters. Everyone knows why men go there, but they can use the delicious wings as a reason for going. It’s still hard to …
Tusk – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 12 / Film #2
This movie is f’d up. It really is, but I loved. Ignore the story line, the gore, the makeup effects – this movie belongs to Michael Parks. He’s absolutely bat shit crazy, but he makes you care for him and his plight. It’s so much more than just Human Centipede with a walrus. This movie, …
