S4E72. 31 Days of Halloween - Day 20: ONIBABA (1964) dir. Kaneto Shindo 36:29

36:29

ONIBABA is one of Willem Dafoe's favorite movies, as his visit to the Criterion Closet confirms. In finally watching Kaneto Shindo's moody 1964 drama, I found it to have a spiritual cousin in one of Dafoe's films, THE LIGHTHOUSE. Both movies center on a couple isolated from most of the world, whose work provides the sole respite for their otherwise…

S4E71. 31 Days of Halloween - Day 19: CRONOS (1992) dir. Guillermo del Toro 43:01

1d ago43:01

43:01

Guillermo del Toro has yet to find any boundaries when it comes to intimacy within a story or the scope of its telling. He uses genre like a stained palette, leaving residue of fusions and clear-cut influences. So it makes sense that his debut, CRONOS, is no different. Del Toro reinvents the vampire using alchemy, entomology, Gothic principles, the…

40:00

It's time to talk about the black sheep of the HALLOWEEN franchise: SEASON OF THE WITCH. This 1982 paranoid sci-fi thriller infamously did not center around Michael Myers but instead on Silver Shamrock, a company whose trendy Halloween masks become the subject of scrutiny after an elderly shop owner is murdered by a mysterious assailant in the hosp…

12d ago57:37

57:37

When writing the watchlist for this year's 31 Days of Halloween, I put on Coralie Fargeat's REVENGE because I adore THE SUBSTANCE and wanted to see more of her work. I listed BYSTANDERS because I'd been following director Mary Beth McAndrews, then editor of Dread Central, for years and wanted to see what her debut would have to offer. But it wasn't…

S4E67. 31 Days of Halloween - Day 16: REVENGE (2017) dir. Coralie Fargeat 29:58

29:58

REVENGE is the feature directorial debut of Coralie Fargeat, Oscar-nominated for directing last year's total fucking banger THE SUBSTANCE. THE SUBSTANCE had a budget of $17 million. REVENGE had $3 million. And in comparing both movies, it gives me great joy to see that Fargeat's penchant for the surreal and gnarly diminishes not with a lowered budg…

MOTEL HELL arrived only months after FRIDAY THE 13TH, poised to be regarded as merely another slasher imitator looking to cash a quick buck. However, Kevin Connor's horror-comedy, penned by brothers Robert & Steven-Charles Jaffe, deceptively avoided the pitfalls of its contemporaries. This movie, about a farmer and motel owner (Rory Calhoun) killin…

*Apologies for the audio: I tried recording in the car & tweaked the sound as best as possible.* POSSESSION is simply a feel-bad movie.

24:33

SCARY MOVIE is a staple of my childhood, an entryway into horror movies during a time where I wasn't allowed to watch most of them. It's a time capsule, for better and worse, of the late '90s/early '00s sense of humor & general fatigue regarding the slew of teen slashers riding SCREAM's coattails. This was my intro to the Wayans Bros, Regina Hall, …

3M ago23:36

23:36

WE ARE STILL HERE occupies a crossroads in the horror genre: that of the '70s & '80s-inspired supernatural chillers, the gorefests from guys like Lucio Fulci and the patient character studies of grief popularized in the '10s (anything A24 would touch). These elements shouldn't work so well together but I guess when you got a horror nerd like Ted Ge…

We're 10 days into the 31 Days of Halloween and I feel like we need a palate cleanser.

GOODNIGHT MOMMY is the feature debut of aunt-nephew duo Veronika Franz & Severin Fiala (THE LODGE, THE DEVIL'S BATH).
