neutral · AI labelView post →Gary Sherman’s Dead and Buried (1981) is an absolutely perfect little horror movie. Sort’ve a sleepy Re-Animator in Murder She Wrote’s Cabot Cove, a sweet spot between Messiah of Evil and The Fog just oozing with rural seaside evil and mood to fucking spare. Small town apocalypse at its best!
neutral · AI labelView post →Screaming Mad George is forever a horror legend for the Shunting alone, but also that gnarly cockroach kill in ANOES 4, goopy gory work on Bride of Re-Animator, Predator and so much more more. I get a thrill anytime I see "surreal fx by Screaming Mad George" in film credits. This one hurts. RIP 💔

The film was, of course, directed by Brian Yuzna and stars Jeffrey Combs, alongside Jason Barry, Elsa Pataky, Santiago Segura & Enrique Arce. And we're back to those 2000's Photoshop cover artworks!

neutral · AI labelView post →I personally think that this is the best “bride” movie in that sub genre. It’s the only one where the bride character has agency of her own and is the true main character. Funny, schlocky, right up there with Re-Animator in terms of midnight movie perfection.

Lovecraft’s iconic mad scientist first came to cinematic life in 1985’s cult classic horror Re-Animator, embodied in unforgettable fashion by Jeffrey Combs, who reprised the maniacal role in 1990’s Bride of Re-Animator and 2003’s Beyond Re-Animator. 23 years after Combs’ third and final time playing Lovecraft’s take on Victor Frankenstein, the obsessively brilliant character is set to make a comeback in…

Tonight's feature was, indeed, [Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085636/). I'll be honest, I went into this one with fairly low expectations. I knew exactly two things about this movie before tonight: That it was completely unrelated to the plot of the first two movies, and that this was the first one not written by John Carpenter and Debra Hill. They do both return as producers, and Carpenter once…

Awesome direction by Gordon. Terrific gore set pieces from John Carl Buechler and crew. A modern day b-horror classic, well worth your time!
