The Horror Thread - Part 6

[SuperBatman]

First one always had me looking around the floors for that creepy zulu doll lol

That Doll gave me nightmares the 1st time I saw that movie. It was a lot more Viscious in Trilogy of Terror 2. Also like the story of Bobby in that movie.

So I saw Walmart has Tales from the Darkside, the Complete Series for $30. Might have to go get that today.

You know, after watching Wes Craven's New Nightmare again, I know it was a dream at the beginning, but what exactly would that film they were making have been? They were literally giving Freddy a robotic hand, and dream-Wes Craven loved it. Even knowing it wasn't real in the context of the film, it's a weird moment.

Motel Hell for day six.

This was always a video rental for me due to the weird and awesome cover. It's pure 80s shlock, but I still enjoy it.

Weekend playlist:

Rosemary's Baby
The Exorcist
The Omen
The Wailing
The Witch

I fell in love with The Wailing. It has a daunting run-time, but the last fifteen minutes pack quite a punch.

"Trick r Treat" and "Tales of Halloween" are a must for my line-up.

Eh, Tales of Halloween was pretty weak.

 

[Broseph44]

I think it's really good. Not each segment was a hit. It's no Trick r Treat or Creepshow, but still a must watch at Halloween for me.

Yes I agree, I also think the segments that are weaker still gave a good atmosphere to the aswell. It's a film I can see improving on each viewing.

when I first saw Lil Wayne, I thought that he cribbed his look from the doll.

I actually liked 'A Christmas Horror Story' a little more than Tales of Halloween. but I found them to, both, to be watchable...but not on Creepshow's level. Tales of Halloween gets a bonus point for cramming several stories into the running time. I don't remember ever being bored by the film. worst (for me) was the killer kid trick r treaters segment. the twist did not pay off, imo.

Creepshow and Trick 'R Treat are just more well made films. I haven't seen Tales of Halloween, I want to though. As for A Christmas Horror Story, I found it pretty good, only the story about the kids in the school did I really hate. The build up to the end reveal was well worth the watch.

Today I watched The Tractate Middoth for my 31 Days of Horror, it's forever burned into my mind.

What's this one about? I like the look of that character.

They are and Tales of Halloween isn't as well made as those but it's such a treat for Halloween. Of course it gas it's good, bad and ok stories like any other horror anthology. But even the stories that aren't good have a really good atmosphere to them.

I actually wish they'd do a Tales of Halloween TV series.

Dude buy it, there are some episodes that suck balls but the great ones are awesome. Trick or Treat and Halloween Candy are my two favourites.

[SuperBatman]

Saw volumes of blood ugh bad acting but I guess that's what I expected didn't really like it at all.
