Housebound

Image
Kylie is caught robbing an ATM and gets sentenced to house arrest at the home of her estranged mother and stepfather. Her mother thinks the house is haunted. Kylie initially disagrees, but when strange things start happening, she begins to wonder if her mom is right. That's all I'm going to tell you. I don't want to give you too much information about this one, because part of the fun is figuring out all the twists and turns along with the characters. However, I will tell you that Housebound rocks, and you should stop what you're doing right now and go watch it. I loved this movie so much that even though I rented it, I turned around as soon as it was over and bought myself a copy. I love this movie so much that, if it was a person, I'd let it go all the way on the first date. I wish this movie was a person so that I could elope with it and spend the rest of my life with it and grow old with it. Seriously, why are you still reading this? Go watch this movie. NOW....

Demons & Demons 2

Demons  and Demons 2 are bat-shit insane Italian monster movies directed by Lamberto Bava (son of Mario) that rank among my all time favorite horror movies. Neither feature very much plot or character development, but they make up for it with outstanding practical effects, gnarly gore, and colorful chaos. Giallo master, Dario Argento is a writer on both, and by many accounts, was also a mentor to the young Bava, as Bava Sr. had been for him. Demons begins when a young woman, Cheryl (Natasha Hovey), receives an invitation to a movie screening and drags her friend, Kathy (Paola Cozza) along. They are joined at the cinema by a motley crew of film goers, including a pimp (the impressive Bobby Rhodes), two prostitutes, a blind man, and two young gentlemen (filling the roles of love interests). Chaos soon breaks out when events in the theatre begin to mirror events in the movie, and people rapidly start turning into seriously gruesome demons (like zombies, they are able to pass alo...

Friday the 13th Part IV: The Final Chapter

Image
Y'all. This is my  favorite   Friday the 13th movie. I have seen it sooo many times, and I watched it again last night. You don't really need a review; if you know anything about the Friday the 13th series, then you know the drill. Horny teens hang out near Crystal Lake, party, get killed. Instead of a review, I'm going to give you a list of why I love this movie so much. 1. Crispin Glover He's here. And he's blonde. And he's totally adorkable. Also, he does this dance: And the girls love it! I love it to. I would totally be smitten. I am totally smitten. Mr. Glover, I love you. 2. Corey Feldman I love Corey Feldman. I've actually have a moderately gigantic love for both the Coreys (we miss you Corey Haim!) since I was a kid. Friday the 13th IV is an early starring role for the Feldmeister (Is that too much? I can reign in my cheesy if I need to. I just get so excited when it comes to the Coreys!). He plays the first incarnation of the the c...
