I’m going to do the first four series in reverse order now, starting with the sequel and currently the only other Annabelle movie: Annabelle: Creation. The first movie is a sort-of prequel to the Conjuring, so it only fits that this is a prequel to the first movie! In this movie, we learn about where …
The first spin-off from one of our previous movies, Annabelle, is also the first movie in the series (which is currently only two movies: Annabelle, and the prequel, Annabelle: Creation). My humorous description of the movie is as follows: After a crazy cult murders their neighbors, the doll they thought they threw away comes back… …
Another of the Blumhouse movies with Patrick Wilson, playing a different character this time. Warning: There be spoilers here. Again stepping away from using the Amazon description because of how goofy I felt the one for Paranormal Activity was, and also because of how well I know this movie: Family of five has moved into …
I’m going to start out with a disclaimer: I love this movie. I enjoy Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga together, I’ve been a fan of Ron Livingston since Band of Brothers/Office Space. Put all three together in a demonic possession movie with a based on true events tag? Delightful. I’m not going to do the …
Starting with our new set of movies: the first Paranormal Activity. After a young, middle class couple moves into what seems like a typical suburban “starter” tract house, they become increasingly disturbed by a presence that may or may not be demonic but is certainly most active in the middle of the night. Especially when …
The final movie in our little set of horror (mostly slashers): Friday the 13th Part 3: An idyllic summer turns into a nightmare of unspeakable terror for yet another group of naive counselors. Ignoring Camp Crystal Lake’s bloody legacy, one by one they fall victim to the maniacal Jason who stalks them at every turn… …
The second to last review of the set: the third Body Snatchers movie, titled just that: This new version follows the fates of a group of people on an Army base who discover that something is taking possession of the minds, bodies of the people they once knew and loved. Well, how did they do? …
Twenty-two years later: the remake! In San Francisco, a group of people discover the human race is being replaced one by one, with clones devoid of emotion. Featuring Leonard Nimoy (Star Trek) While occasionally falling victim to the decade in some pretty obvious ways — at least to someone familiar with the decade who managed …
Our first non-slasher horror in this series, the original Invasion of the Body Snatchers: Something evil has taken possession of the small town of Santa Mira, California. Hysterical people accuse their loved ones of being emotionless impostors; of not being themselves. At first, Dr. Miles Bennell (Kevin McCarthy) tries to convince them they’re wrong…but they’re …
From Amazon: A group of young adults discover a boarded up Camp Crystal Lake, where they soon encounter Jason Voorhees (Mears) and his deadly intentions. Oh-kay, here we go: This is a reboot. There are no sequels to this reboot. Make of that what you may. Here’s what I made of it: The movie has …
