Recent Watch - Nightmare Beach (1988)
#150
A cool slasher with a mysterious aspect. Some great kills and lots of motorcycles. I love the glorification and interest in spring break culture. Really fun film.
I think I really like Umberto Lenzi, I’ve seen a few of his films now (Cannibal Ferox, Nightmare City, The Manhunt) and liked them all! He made a ton, I need to check more out.

This movie was great! I’ve only seen the first, but heard this one was so good because it was Australian made. And it was true! I think I think werewolf movies, almost always going to have at least one sweet transition scene.

I picked this VHS up today, and was like “weird! Never even heard of this one!”. Then I got home and figured out why. It’s fucking bad. Only renamed to Rubberface and released on VHS after Jim Carrey became famous to try and cash in on him. If you REALLY like Jim Carrey watch, otherwise no reason at all.
Recent Watch - The Manhunt (1984)

Picked this VHS up the other day, it was way better than I thought it was going to be. I realized it would be as soon as Henry Silva came on screen. Ethan Wayne plays an awesome cowboy revenge character. He is wrongfully convicted for stealing horses, and goes so far to prove otherwise. Tons of cop car crashes and explosions ensue.
Also this cover MUST’VE been done by someone who hadn’t seen the movie, only stills or something. It’s a combination of stuff that kinda happens but it’s all the wrong characters and setting, lol whataver.

Saw this at MovieLoft tonight, I haven’t seen it since I was a kid. Really enjoyed it like I remembered. Tons to cuties in the movie too. Such an all star cast.
Recent Watch - Upstream Color (2013)

New movie from Shane Carruth (dir. Primer [2004]). This movie was good, I think. I might require a second watch, but some parts of the film were really great. Comparisons to Mallick can’t help but be brought up. I didn’t like it as much as Primer, but worth a watch.

Watched this on memory of Ray Harryhausen and his great special effects. This movie is super entertaining, lots of great effects and action.
Recent Watch - The Amityville Horror (1979)

For a movie that has like 10 sequels, this movie BLOWS. It’s boring. I think haunted house movies are my least favorite horror genre. Maybe.
Recent Watch - The Fly II (1989)
#142
So after rewatching the fly the other day I decided to finally watch this vhs tape I have. I wasn’t expecting much, but I wanted to know. And I’m being serious when I say this movie was serious good! I mean it’s no genius of the first one, but it had an alright plot, great body horror, and okay acting! Very watchable and fun!
If you asked me “should I watch Fly II?” I’d say “Yup”
