    Terrifier 2

    ★★½

    I saw the first Terrifier back in October and wasn't thrilled by it. I'm a big fan of the horror genre, but I've never been too keen on the slasher subgenre within horror. I feel like it gets old fast, you know? I have a tough time keeping engaged with them. I decided to finally get around to watching the sequel to Terrifier, but sadly I don't think it overcomes my issues with the first movie and the slasher genre…

  • Monster House

    Monster House

    ★★★½

    Watched this with the sibling, technically one half last night and the second half today cus it was past his bedtime last night.

    I watched Monster House a few times as a kid on account of me owning the DVD. It was probably thanks to this and Coraline that I like horror as much as I do now. Although I did not like actual horror movies as a child and would get scared when someone put on Saw or Friday…

    ★★★★★

    Mandy is an absolute must-see. Nicolas Cage is at home within the colourful yet graphic psychedelic fantasy action horror as he rips and tears through the Shadow Mountains in vengeance for Mandy.

    "Love is the one thing we're capable of perceiving that transcends dimensions of time and space."

    Wow. I'm so glad I saw this in IMAX while I had the chance instead of one day watching it on my tiny laptop screen for the first time (yes, I haven't seen it till now.) There's not much for me to say that I'm sure others haven't already said much more eloquently and detailed than me. But it was very, very, very, very, very good. I can't wait to revisit this in the future.
