Not sure I will have time for one today, but I'll certainly try to squeeze one in tomorrow.
Any suggestions of something with a real fall atmosphere?

It was Countdown (2019). It was entertaining.

It was Countdown (2019). It was entertaining. Yeah, it wasn't good, but not nearly as bad as I assumed it would be. The idea of an app being some novel thing and the cell phone store guy made me think it must have been a script that was intended to be made like 10 years ago, but that cell phone store guy was played by Tom Segura and he's hilarious, so that was a nice surprise. |

Started up with the rather awful Zombie Nightmare (1987), still, since it was the very first in line (of hopefully many to come, well, not awful films, but horror films I mean  ) I decided to be a bit more generous than I guess I should have, and rated it with a 3/10. Of course, much of that comes from a young Tia Carrere, some trashy b-movie cheese and Adam West being Adam West, but if not for the few positives mentioned, it would surely lie in the 2/10 categery. |

Saw Zombie Night yesterday for an early one, today, The Linda Vista Project, also $3 at Dollar General. Never heard of it, anybody familiar with it?

Carrie. Even though it's set in the spring, prom, watching it it always felt like an autumn atmosphere to me.

Hmm, interesting. Why do you think that is? Something about the drab 70s color pallette and DiPalma soft focuse maybe? I'd never considered that movie as feeling autumnal, but I can sorta see it. |

Oof, what a movie to start with. That movie was really bad.

I saw Red Island. It sucked. Hoping films here will get better.

I started with Hostel and Hostel part II. Thought I had seen both before but the second isn't familiar at all. It stars Lauren German (Lucifer) and so far, I'm halfway, they never show her body or even her figure, she's somewhat frumpy the whole time. Even when she's in the pool it's only her head sticking out of the water and when she exits the pool she holds a robe in front of the camera. Just strikes me as odd. Maybe I'm desensitized but both movies are relatively tame when it comes to gore. In the first there is a decapitated head, some body puncturing and cutting, some shooting, but there is little psychological weight to it. In the second there is a scene where someone drags a scythe over a woman's body hard enough to bunch up the skin and it leaves no mark, not a scratch or even red line. Both take about half the movie before the horror part kicks in. The first carried you through with some nudity but there is a lot less in part II. In part II there is a deep background rumble in the abandoned factory which doesn't make sense. I'm sure it's for 'ambiance' but still doesn't make sense. The first is interesting in that the victims are all males. Missing is the mean spirited violence of some other Eli Roth movies like Aftershock and Cabin Fever. I still enjoy both and this has put me in the torture porn mood, maybe I'll watch the box set of Saw movies I bought on sale a few years ago.
