Late Night with the Devil

A live broadcast of a late-night talk show in 1977 goes horribly wrong, unleashing evil into the nation's living rooms.
www.themoviedb.org www.themoviedb.org

and just an odd background reveal for the host.. like all the demon wanted to do, was remind Jack he made a deal with the demon? thats.. so lame. Ghostwatch obviously did a far better job with this concept.

Angel Heart for the win.

Heretic. -tubi

Heretic

Two young missionaries are forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by a diabolical Mr. Reed, becoming ensnared in his deadly game of cat-and-mouse.
www.themoviedb.org www.themoviedb.org

I was debating if this one deserved a bump to its thread here. decided nah. Very solid. tense as hell. lots of suspense. hugh grant is doing a masterclass for sure. girls doing well too. especially glasses.
absurd trap house is pretty absurd...
I was about to call out his reddit tier theology, and.. then she does it. so its interesting that his terrible arguments were intentional.

does keep me guessing. I was going to forgive the trap house at first, when it seem liked it was just one room... but then the waterlogged antechamber was added.. "cant hear us" with this giant gap under the door.
thread here didnt like the ending. which I think was fine. not perfect. but not horrible.
I would have made some small changes. dead girl coming back to life to save her, I would have made a bit more overt. getting the key, or actively stopping him from killing the other girl. not just clubbing an already dead man. then, the butterfly in a snowstorm is too fast/on the nose. I would have had her get out, then an epilogue scene with the butterfly at a later date. maybe have her going on a missionary with a new girl. and the new girl is asking her the same kinds of questions she was asking at the start. and that leads into the butterfly.

8/10

Go watch The Cycle on Shudder/AMC+ if you are a fan of horror or mystery movies.

Put me down for really liking this one. It's a well shot film that uses grounded characters and a bit of mystery to build a story. When things come together later on the contrast between the beginning of the film and what we get later on makes it all the better.

Weekend at the End of the World

Best friends Karl and Miles, who find themselves in a secluded cabin in the woods with what they think is an opportunity to get rich, with the only thing standing in their way being the end of the world.

lame acting. bad fx. bad story. only a couple ok moments.

4/10 not worth your time.

portal to hell -amazon
www.themoviedb.org

Portal to Hell

After a debt-collector finds a portal to hell in a washing machine at his local laundromat, he’s propositioned into feeding it sinners to save his neighbor’s soul, maybe even at the expense of his own.
www.themoviedb.org www.themoviedb.org

disappointing. shot well. keith david. good fx. its like a sad, lame, and boring little shop of horrors. no music. boring characters. thats the real problem. debt collector is bored and sad. a portal to hell opens in the local laundromat.. meets a demon, who wants to collect his neighbors soul. hee makes a deal to fed it other bad souls in exchange for his neighbor. the laundromat manager is a bored, super apathetic/self centered women.. the two are our main leads. and both are just so boring and uninteresting. questionable morality and "im a good person." "be good" nonsense. replacing Christian morality with platitudes.

3/10

Anything for Jackson

A bereaved Satanist couple kidnap a pregnant woman so they can use an ancient spellbook to put their dead grandson's spirit into her unborn child, but they end up summoning more than they bargained for.

This punched above its weight. Great indie horror that handled the demonic shit very well. Highly reccomend

Terrifier

A maniac named Art the Clown terrorizes two friends on Halloween and everyone else who gets in his way.
www.themoviedb.org www.themoviedb.org

I heard the writer/director interviewed. Evidently he can make a movie on a shoe-string budget and bring in HUGE profits (at least in countries that don't ban the film outright). He also does his own make-up and special effects...

I wish I could unsee it. Yes, there is a certain charisma and blank spookiness to the villain. But there is also no REASON for any of it.

Only a few films leave me feeling disturbed for no rational reason. This one did. Why does the killer do what he does? I dunno... BUT if there ever was a film that deserved the idiom "torture-porn" it's this one. And somehow you can't compare Art the clown to Jason or Micheal Meyers or Freddie... Please, if you can explain it to me, please do so. I think the film takes itself way too seriously and torture and death aren't "fun" in this film.

I am surprised it is streaming. I have to go looking for good films. This film has a lot of intriguing elements, but its sole purpose is gore and (predominantly) sexy female stalking and death by horrific circumstances.

Yes-- there is something 1970's about it, but with such a serious undertone that made me feel ill. Cannibal Corpse only did that with the cat scene.

Fuck you, Terrifier (and its sequels). Don't support this crap. Pornstars work harder; support them over sadistic, evil misogyny with no sense of humor or decorum.
