    31 Day Horror Movie Challenge

    Day Eleven - Al Adamson

    Completely unfamiliar with Al Adamson and well I think it should stay that way.

    Purposely bad at points. Instantly reminded me of a poorly written Doctor Who episode from the 70s with gore and violence. It was just odd. 

    The acting is stiff and at times unbearable. 

    I was just waiting for the TARDIS to show up 

    If you’re looking for a bad movie then you’ve found it right here.…

    Day Ten - Foreign Language Horror

    Now not a typical horror and certainly more supernatural and fantasy based with some horror elements but wanted to give this another go. Haven’t watched for years so went for a rewatch.

    It drags at points. It’s a good story and you can see it’s setting up a bigger story but I think that’s what causes some of the issues, knowing there is going to be more.

    Plebs: Soldiers of Rome

    ★★★★½

    This was great. So many moments where I was laughing out loud. The throwbacks were great. Grumio was amazing as always. The only thing that I felt we should have got was a final “I came, I saw, I conquered” ending but overall it was probably one of the better last ever episodes of a show. 

    Glad now that we got this rather than a final season as this was much better


    Also like to throw in that I loved the fact it was Kåre Conradi as the barbarian chief!

    Day Seven - Giallo

    Completely unfamiliar with this genre going into watching but absolutely loved it! 

    Quite dated in parts but the whole story and the way it is told is fantastic. 

    The score is excellent and really compliments the movie. 

    The gore is great! 

    The twists and turns are gripping.

    I look forward to watching more of these films in the future

    Tomorrow’s theme is Slow Burn
