We review 3 horror movies each week with humor & insight. New, old, funny, scary, we love ‘em all.
This week: Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark gets the scary and the dark right, but misses on the story. The 8-story anthology Field Guide to Evil has a few duds, but succeeds overall.
Next time: New free stuff! We're watching:
Monitor (Prime)
I Am Mother (Netflix)
Our short is Harry Doright's Prelude to Hell. Watch along and we'll chat atcha soon.
This week we went episodic with two TV series. We watched all 2.5 hours of Dead Set, a zombie apocalypse/reality TV riff that is a little workmanlike, but worth a viewing. And we fell in love with the first two episodes of Typewriter, a lushly filmed ghost story that manages to hit a lot of different tones without a sour note.
Next week: Folk you!
We're watching:
Field Guide to Evil (Prime)
Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (theatrical)
Our short is Rations. Watch along and we'll chat soon.
This week we find a minor gem with Freaks of Nature, find DeadTectives a little (no pun intended) soulless, and are intrigued by the Twilight Zone-esque Await Further Instructions.
Next up, we're trying something a little different (GASP). We're watching some episodic horror television! Join us in watching:
Dead Set (5 episodes, Netflix)
And the first two episodes of
Typewriter (Netflix)
Watch along, and we'll chat atcha soon.
