Welcome to our first side dish – a quick talk about a great public domain horror movie. In fact, this one is the first recognized horror movie – House of the Devil from Georges Méliès. While it’s short – 3 minutes – its fascinating to see this put together and be a horror movie (loosely defined).
You can check it out and watch this classic:

Backrooms – Appetizer Review
Interesting. It was a bit of modern Alice in Wonderland meets Cabin in the Woods. The starkness was spooky. Need to see it again as I’m not sure I grasped all of it. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26657236 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backrooms_(film)

Ouija – Appetizer Review
Didn’t hold my interest. Seems to be trying to be hip, maybe like Final Destination. But the story just didn’t really hold together. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1204977 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ouija_(2014_film) https://amzn.to/4dW9M1g

Jeepers Creepers 2 – Appetizer Review
The 2nd movie takes place in the same 23 day period as the first movie, but at the end rather than beginning. Now its a group of teens on a bus. A sequel that is different while keeping the myth of the first – and its still pretty good. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0301470 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeepers_Creepers_2 Get it on Amazon…

Lady in White – Appetizer Review
Ghost story from the 70’s.Pretty well done and written, but, again it hasn’t aged well (figured it out well before the ending, too) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_in_White https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095484 Get it on Amazon – https://amzn.to/3PNB8i2

Suspiria – Appetizer Review
Witches in a ballet school. Really pretty poor (the blood was WAY too red). It might have been good when it came out, but it didn’t age well. One of Argento’s Mother Trilogy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspiria https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076786 Get it on Amazon – https://amzn.to/4fWNn6i

Jeepers Creepers – Appetizer Review
I’ve seen it before, but it’s been awhile. Definitely creepy. Straight up creature horror with a supernatural twist. There are more – so I’ll watch the series. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0263488 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeepers_Creepers_(2001_film) Get it on Amazon – https://amzn.to/49zA1Jw

Hellboy – series
Hellboy – This one was directed by Guillermo Del Toro and had Ron Perlman and the big red monkey. Couple other notable names, but for us, seeing Doug Jones once again is toppers. Really not a bad movie – fun to watch. I’m not a big comic book Hellboy fan, so no expectations going in.…

The Long Walk – Appetizer review
Another Stephen King adaptation, and this one is good. shows his ability to take a fairly static situation and get you completely focused on the characters. And its done well. No, it’s not a supernatural scare fest – it’s a study of the human character, which is what all of his stuff is. If you…

28 Years Later – Appetizer review
This is a great series, and the final one is still high quality. And best, the movies aren’t rehash of each other. Each one is different and shows the apocalypse not only from different viewpoints but different times. makes each movie unique while biluding on the previous. And Bone Temple is supposed to be this…
