Watched Doctor Sleep today. I have a friend that didn't like that that the Overlook Hotel was still standing at the end of The Shining, and that the climax takes place in the hotel and not some empty camp site, but I can't imagine that would have been nearly as interesting visually.

Friday the 13th Part 3 was really charming with all the 3D effect shots. I'd love to see the movie with the full 3D on.

I like how The Final Chapter has the line of dialog: "A new chapter in the story that residents of Camp Crystal Lake had hoped was over"

The Final Chapter is far and away the horniest Friday the 13th movie so far.

Watched Dracula today on a whim. I think the movie was mostly interesting for Legosi's performance. Kind of like watching Treasure Island and seeing the performance that basically defined what pirates are in popular culture.

I decided to order the Scream Factory blu-rays for Halloween 2 + 3 in anticipation of Halloween Kills. I haven't seen any of the Halloween movies besides 1978 and 2018.

Needs More Goop posted:3 is fun, but it really doesn't adhere to the rest of the franchise, it's very much its own thing. I've always been interested in 3 since I thought an anthology series was a lot more viable for the franchise than focusing on Michael Myers.

I thought Fear Street was pretty alright. Not sure I was expecting a movie version of Dead by Daylight, but I can dig it. I kinda wish it wasn't doing a big, grand story and it was just an anthology series, but I guess we'll see how it all plays out.

I saw Old last night, and I thought it was pretty good. It's kind of clunky with exposition, but nothing that totally ruins the movie. The ending dragged a bit, but I thought the twist was a good spin on why these people were lured there by the hotel, even if I kind of wish it was left ambiguous. I was kinda expecting a big undo button to be hit, and I'm glad it wasn't.

I watched Edge of the Axe last night, a largely ignored slasher movie that's on Arrow's streaming service. It felt like a fairly unique slasher movie to me. It felt like there were stretches where it was actually easy to forget there's even a killer around, and it has a pretty Shyamalan tier twist ending.

Working my way through the Universal boxset. Dracula's Daughter is maybe a bit more interesting of a movie than the 1931 Dracula to me.

I peeped Candyman earlier today. This may be a very weird thing, but I felt that Candyman had the vibes of a Courage the Cowardly Dog villain. I mean that in a good way because Courage the Cowardly Dog owns.

Went to an empty screening of Candyman today. I rather enjoyed it, though I understand it seems to have a mixed reception. Some great moments like the elevator sequence and the finale really stick out in my mind.

I saw Welcome to Racoon City earlier in the week. I thought it was solid, and it's really good looking and well shot. I read that they tried to capture the tone of RE2 Remake, and I would say they definitely succeeded in that. However, the third act and climax feels more than a little bit rushed, and I wish the movie was actually a bit longer to flesh things out a bit more. I was really enjoying the slow pacing of the first two thirds of the movie.

I watched the Rob Zombie Halloween movies a couple days ago, and I am no of the opinion that Rob Zombie's Halloween 2 is perhaps the best slasher sequel of all time. That movie goes hard.

Introduced my friend to Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Halloween, and Texas Chain Saw Massacre in that order because I put on Nightmare on a whim since he mentioned not having seen it before, and then realized he hadn't seen any of them before so we just committed to a reverse order. It was an interesting way to watch those movies, and he mentioned how none of them were exactly what he expected. Revisiting Texas Chain Saw Massacre was especially great because I forgot just how incredibly oppressive the atmosphere of that movie is.

Took a chance last night on the movie Madhouse (1981) on Arrow's streaming service expecting some fun shlock. I didn't quite get full on shlock, but I felt distinctly impressed with the performances out of the villains. Definitely worth a watch.

It seems to me like they had way too many subjects they wanted this movie to be about, but just didn't develop any of them. The original film manages to say quite a bit about the meat industry and how vile it is, while this just seems to gesture at a hot topic idea Gentrification, racism, cancel culture, classism, school shootings, police brutality, and revenge all come up in this movie but I do not think I could tell you what the movie's position on any of them even is
