So, I did dive into some horror franchise stuff this month and I do wonder what are people's favorite horror franchise. During October I watched: Friday the 13th 1-3 : These all pretty much deliver what they set out to deliver, which is people getting killed in the woods. It is sort of funny...

So I read... And thought "I've gotta see this movie!" Not sure what all those other words were.

Where/how did you see this one Michael? Streaming or on disc? I'd like to check it out.

October 2 - Fear No Evil This is a TV movie from 1969 now available on a freshly released Blu-ray from Kino Lorber. I will say upfront that everything about this Blu-ray is first class so on that front this is a winner. The idea with this TV film was it was leading up to a series and the disc...

October 1 - Host (2020) Well, if I ever was going to say there is a picture that it makes sense to watch on a laptop, this is it. That is because this film is pretty much the Zoom meeting from hell...literally. Made during our pandemic lockdown by a group of filmmakers that wanted to make a...

October 1 - The Empty Man Well, due to a case of insomnia I kicked things off after midnight last night with The Empty Man, a picture that had been scheduled for a 2018 release and was finally released in 2020 and few saw it. I enjoyed the picture as a couple things I like in a horror film...

I have added the new Paramount Presents disc of Breakdown with Kurt Russell to my list of October films.

So, I have the new Dementia 13 blu set aside for this as well. Now, I have seen Dementia 13 before but this is a new director's cut of the picture...does that mean it counts as a new film? I think there are only a couple minutes trimmed. I'm leaning toward this would not be counted as new but...

That's the one! I was hooked when I read it was about "a psychiatrist that specializes in the occult investigating strange occurrences involving a wealthy and powerful cult" and picked it up on the spot. Also I guess these were thought to be lost and through some digging they found them and...

I found that it is on HBO Max and so will watch it there. Yes, the people that I have heard comment on it thought it was great and the description made it sound like occult noir which is right up my alley. I was also intrigued that this was a well budgeted horror picture that the studio just...

I think I read something about it, forgot about it, then heard people talking about it on a podcast saying how good it was and thought, I have to write that down for October...didn't...forgot about it again. Then when the October movie thread for this year was posted I recalled there were a...

That's essentially what I had heard about it. That the studio gave the guy a good budget to make it and then just dropped it. I believe it was supposed to be a 2018 release. I wonder where it was released in 2020 because I do not recall much ending up in cinemas then. I had read something about...

OK, found it, has anybody seen this? I have to check out how I can see it because I think it is streaming only. From what I have heard this is supposed to be a really good picture that got totally shafted for some reason... As I understand it this trailer is misleading as it looks like one of...

Yeah, when they were discussing it I kept thinking this sounds like it could be awful but then they both said they really liked it and I think Olsen said he thought it was the best lockdown picture he had seen and he was jealous or something. I wrote it down at the time to try to check out later...

I did not pick-up that big Friday the 13th box set and asked a friend that was really into the films if I should. He did not recommend it. However, I find going back to those 70s/80s slashers has been a lot of fun and I am enjoying them more now than I would have then. My friend said we saw...

Host is one of the pictures that I will watch streaming. It came to my attention through Josh Olsen and Joe Dante's The Movies that Made Me podcast. It was a picture shot during lockdown and is about people on some kind of Zoom meeting summoning a demon by accident. Sounds like it could be...

Not new titles but I have them out as part of my October viewing... Friday the 13th Friday the 13th II Friday the 13th 3 in 3D I had been reading some things about the Friday the 13th pictures and this got me interested in watching these. Also I moved to an area where I am basically in a...

I just started last night putting together the films I will be watching. Not very far into it yet but the big thing I try to do is find some things I have not seen before to watch. Here's a preview of some of the new titles I will be checking out in October: Fear No Evil -This is a Kino release...
