13 Ghosts (1960)3/5Haunting60sA poor family inherits an old mansion that is haunted by 13 ghosts. The family decides to take on the ghosts in order to find a fortune hidden within the mansion's grounds. A William Castle movie.A simple albeit fun haunted house movie. While the effects are very dated, they don't detract from the movie's charm - only add to it. The cast is charasmatic to boot as well. More of a mystery movie than horror.

1408 (2007)5/5Supernatural2000sHorror author Mike Enslin decides to visit the Dolphin Hotel to stay a night at the infamous room 1408 - a room that is supposedly evil incarnate. Adapted from a short story by Stephen King.What if "The Shining" took place in a single room instead of a hotel? Surprisingly really good; playing on the notion of what is real and what isn't very well. Loved the fact that 1408 itself felt like an actual character instead of a simple set piece. Well paced with a strong opening and a satisfying ending. Very pleased with how this turned out.0: Horrible: Nothing of value. Bad production from start to finish. 1: Watchable: Does one or two things right; gore, makeup, storyline, etc.; but still very rough and can be tough to get through. 2: Not Bad, Not Great: Has unique ideas and concepts but may disappoint in other areas. Worth a view to judge for yourself. 3. Good: Does a lot of things right and is very watchable. May fall flat here or there but still a good watch. 4. Great! Has a good storyline, well acted, fun ideas, and engaging from start to finish. Should totally give it a chance! 5. Fantastic! Hits the nail in all areas - acting, atmosphere, production value, and scares!

2000 Maniacs (1964)3/5Torture60sPleasant Valley was a small town whose residents were brutally slaughtered during the Civil War. Every 100 years, the 2000 citizens come back from the dead in order to extract their revenge on the Yankees they lure into town.Despite the rough audio and music that is too loud, the movie is very entertaining. One of the first "Southern Gore Films" that paved the way for Texas Chainsaw and other movies.
5
2001 Maniacs (2005)3/5Torture2000sCollege students incure the wrath of a small southern town who celebrate their "Guts and Glory Jubilee" by hunting down and butchering Yankees. Directed by Tim Sullivan and co-starring Robert Englund and Lin Shaye. A remake of 1964's Two Thousand Maniacs!A fun "splat-stick" horror comedy. The kills are creative, the stereotypes over-the-top, and the acting entertaining. Robert and Lin are clearly enjoying themselves as they chew up the scenery.
6
2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams (2010)1/5Torture2010sThe "Guts and Glory Jubilee" is lacking in Yanks to kill. So the mayor (Played by Bill Mosely this time) decides to take the town on the road. They end up on a Paris Hilton-style reality show and use the cast and crew as their annual sacrifice.Movie has a shoe-string budget and it shows. The ADR is distractingly bad, the kills mostly off screen and mediocre, and the characters painfully annoying. Bill Mosely and Lin Shaye do their best with what they are given but it's still not enough to justify this movie.
7
21 days (2014) 2/5Found Footage2010sThree friends spend 21 days in haunted house while recording their findings. Tensions rise as they turn against each other as the hauntings grow more serious.Very generic from start to finish. The acting is not half bad and it has the usual found footage scares but just does nothing new for the genre nor is it interesting enough to warrant multiple watches.
8
3 From Hell (2019)3/5Torture2010sThe Firefly Family (Sid Haig, Sherri Moon Zombie, and Bill Mosely) survived their shootout and are put on trial. When Otis and Baby escape, they flee to Mexico with Otis's half-brother Coltrane (Richard Brake). There they face off against a carel boss who seeks revenge for the death of his son at the Firefly's hand. Sid Haig's Final Role.3 From Hell feels like it should have been the 2nd film of the Firefly trilogy as opposed to the final film. Bill and Sherri continue to nail their Firefly personas and Richard Brake is a great addition to the movie. While not as strong as Devil's Rejects, 3 From Hell is still entertaining.
9
30 days of Night (2007) 3/5Vampire2000sA small town in Alaska prepares for the "30 days of night" - a time in winter with a month long polar night. What they don't realize is that a pack of vicious vampires have decided to use this time to feed upon the townsfolk.Unapologetically violent and ruthless. The vampires are almost feral in nature with their brutality as they no longer have to fear the sunlight and can hunt for as long as they want. Has some moments of slowdown that hurts the pacing but overall is a solid vampire movie.
10
31 (2016)2/5Torture2010sFive carnival workers are kidnapped by a trio of rich sadists who intend to use them for entertainment. The workers must fight against the sadists' champions in a battle royale where only the strongest come out alive. Written and Directed by Rob Zombie.The movie's only real strength are the designs of the killers. The "Heads" - a group of sadistic clowns - are very creative in both looks and personality. Unfortunately everything else just falls flat - especially during the third act.
11
8213:Gacy House (2010)1/5Found Footage2010sParanormal investigators spend the night at serial killer John Wayne Gacy's home in hopes of summoning the spirit of Gacy. An Asylum Film.Things go bang then the group spend minutes yelling over each other. Rinse. Repeat. Nothing of substance happens. Movie literally waits until the last 9 minutes before anything happens and when it did, we cannot see anything. Horrible Ending.
12
976-EVIL (1988)3/5Supernatural80sIntroverted nerd Hoax discovers a strange phone-number that provides "Horror-Scopes" - creepy themed fortunes. The fortunes start coming true; providing Hoax with his deepest desires at the cost of his mortal soul. Directed by Robert Englund.Just oozes with 80's cheese. The one-liners, the gore, the silliness of the overall concept; 976-Evil is an entertaining romp that is best enjoyed when not taken seriously. Always a fun watch.
13
A Cat in the Brain (1990)2/5Thriller90sA serial killer models his murders off the movies of Italian Horror Director Lucio Fulci (Playing himself). Lucio, on the other hand, is suffering from his own delusions caused by the violence protrayed in his movies. Showcases clips from several different Fulci films throughout the movie. The concept behind the movie is fascinating. Can be argued that this inspired ideas like New Nightmare and Scream. Lucio is great at playing a tortured version of himself and as per usual, the gore and make-up is beyond reproach. However the constant flashbacks - using clips from other movies - are so frequent that it bogs the movie down to a horribly dull snail's pace.
14
ABC's of Death 1 (2012)1/5Anthology2010s26 tales with each one based off a letter of the alphabet. Has such "classics" as F is for Fart.Just terrible. The tone is all over the place and a lot of the shorts couldn't be classified as "scary" or "horror". Feels like there was no true direction given to the writers of each short film. Some gems in this but not enough to justify watching the entire anthology.
15
ABC's Of Death 2 (2014)4/5Anthology2010sA series of short films, each one based off a different letter of the Alphabet. The VASTLY superior sequel to ABCS of Death.Has some of the most creative and twisted short stories seen in an Anthology. "Z" is easily one of the most horrific and morbid things I have ever seen in a scary movie. Highly recommend!
16
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter3/5Vampire2010sThe secret life of Abraham Lincoln who was, in fact, a vampire hunter. Details the life of Lincoln as he seeks out and destroys vampires who wish to use the South as their personal hunting ground.A bizarre concept that somehow works. While the CGI has not aged well and the idea hard to swallow - the movie is full of absurd, over-the-top action that is quite fun to watch. May not be a classic, but is never boring.
17
Absurd (1981)2/5Slasher80sThe church experiments on a man to give him a healing factor. When the man goes insane, the Vatican sends a priest to hunt the lunatic down before his body count increases.The kills are the highlight of the movie. The music is really fun to listen too but sometimes does not match what we are seeing. Slow paced in the middle and forgets its main cast 2/3rds into the movie to become a generic home-invasion slasher film. Would recommend 1 viewing for the ending scene alone!
18
AfterDeath (2015)1/5Thriller2010sFive young people wash up on a beach only to discover that they are, in fact, in Purgatory. They hope to find salvation through strange paintings hidden inside of a beach house.Forgettable storyline, forgettable cast, forgettable concept. Some interesting visuals here and there but overall a bland attempt at a thriller.
19
All Cheerleaders Die (2014)3/5Fantasy2010sFootball players run a bunch of cheerleaders off the side of the road. A Wiccan classmate uses crystals to bring the cheerleaders back to life. Now they plan their revenge against the football players while also trying to understand their new powers. One part Jennifer's Body, one part The Craft. Tom Williamson plays a fantasically disgusting villain. Good kills, good premise, and fast paced. Overall not bad and quite entertaining. The ending is rather sudden however.
20
All Hallows Eve (2013)2/5Anthology2010s A young boy is given a VHS tape during Halloween and insists the he, his sister, and his babysitter sit down and watch it. What they witness are three terrifying tales of Satanism, Aliens, and serial killers - with Art the Clown being the central theme to each of these stories.Less of an anthology and more of a way to distribute the origin shorts of Art the Clown. The middle story being an original work, the other two being the low-budget Art the Clown films. Acting, effects, and the stories themselves are a bit rough with the finale being the strongest portion of the film.
21
Alone in a Ghost House (2015)2/5Found Footage2010sFour friends decide to spend the night at an old artist commune where a mass murder took place. They hope to catch some sort of supernatural evidence on camera for an internet series they hope to make. What they find instead though is much more frightening.There is not a lot of tension throughout this movie - as the haunting segment starts at the last 20 minutes of the film. But the characters are interesting for the most part despite the camera man being used mostly to hit on women for an hour and a half. The twist at the end makes the movie worth seeing at least once, even if the acting takes a nose dive during.
22
Alone in the Dark (2005)1/5Supernatural2000sA supernatural investigator tries to stop ancient demons from destroying the world. An Uwe Boll film based off the video game.If this movie was a spice, it would be flour. The acting is non-existant, the action nothing but shakey cams and tons of cuts, and most of the movie is too dark to see anything. Still better than House of the Dead though.
23
Alphabet Killer (2008)2/5Thriller2000sA Detective tries to solve a series of murders that focus on girls whose first and last names have the same first letter. Loosely based off a real killer.Well acted and shot but lacks tension. Frustrating in some scenes. MC's hallucinations look terrible. Bland ending. Good use of red herrings. Some may like it but personally found it dull.
24
Altar (2016)3/5Found Footage2010sA small college reunion in the woods results in paranoia and terror as the group's car breaks down leaving them in the middle of nowhere near a demonic altar.Was very surprised at the quality! The main character (Bo) protrays someone with aspbergers wonderfully and generates a real sense of sympathy and empathy. The cast works well enough making them a believable group of friends and the suspense builds up with a good slow burn. Scares mostly happen at the last 20 minutes and the villain is a bit too over the top. Also first 10 minutes is VERY rough but worth a watch either way.
25
Always Watching: A Marble Hornets Story (2015)2/5Found Footage2010sA small town news crew discover several home-video tapes of a family that went missing. Upon watching them, they inadvertently summon a demonic figure that starts hunting them down. Based off the Youtube series Marble Hornets and is about Slenderman.Unlikable characters mean we do not really have anyone to root for. Has a strange B-story involving one of the characters stalking another for no reason that gets dropped after the halfway mark. Some good moments with Slenderman being hidden just off camera but overall falls short and is not scary. Watch the YT series instead.
26
American Gothic (1988)4/5Slasher80sA group of young adults end up stranded on an island. There they run into a family of psychopaths who still act like it's the 1920s.Texas Chainsaw Massacre meets Cast Away. The deranged family can be quite uncomfortable to watch - with grown adults acting as young children and a total disregard for anything modern. Creative kills, some legit disturbing moments, and a very satisfying ending. Very enjoyable!
27
American Guinea Pig: Sacrifice (2017) [Read Review] ***0/5 Torture2010sA guilt-ridden man undergoes a ritural to summon a goddess. The ritual involves extreme self mutilation. [WARNING: EXTREME GENITAL AND BODY MUTILATION] Don't know how to rate this movie. It's strictly Torture Porn with little to no story. The make-up and effects are stomach-churning and grotesque with its realism. In terms of the practical effects and shock horror - this is a 5/5. In terms of story and being an actual movie with a plot - 0/5
28
Amityville Frankenstein (2023)0/5Monster2020sAn idiot watches an Elvira-like movie about two thieves looking for a watch. Eventually they find Frankenstein. Nothing else happens.Would give negative points if possible. The majority of the movie is of two men walking up a staircase in the pitch black. Other nonsense includes a 1 minute long title card, another 2 minutes dedicated to a TV logo, and several shots that linger on stock images for no reason. Not to mention the commentary from the guy watching the movie (that includes him discussing his farts and snacks).
29
Amityville: Clownhouse (2017)1/5Possession2010sA man gets possessed by…nothing…and dresses up as a clown. He murders his family then kills himself. The rest of the movie follows a wife and her husband after he buys a toy monkey that - surprise! - comes from Amityville. The monkey possesses the husband and he proceeds to be a real jerk.This is not a movie about clowns. There is one clown at the start of the movie but after that it follows the story of the toy monkey last seen in ToyBox. Most of the dialogue is inaudible thanks to awful sound mixing. What little story there is is laughable and the acting is silly at best. Still fun to make fun of.
30
Amityville: Dollhouse (1996)2/5Haunting90sAn Amityville replica Dollhouse is given to a little girl. Good news! It is complete in box - ghosts included! Things that happen in this dollhouse end up transferring into the real world as well.Acting is decent enough and some of the concepts are unique and interesting. Just does not land on the story or characters. Feels a lot longer than it really is. Some moments are somewhat interesting but it really should have been a Creepshow episode than a full movie.
31
Amityville: In Space (2022)0/5Haunting2020sAn exocism sends the Amityville house into space. 1000 years later a team of space explorers discover the house. Thinking it an ancient space ship, the team decide to investigate only to accidentally allow the evil onto their own ship.At first you may find this movie so bad that its good. But then it keeps going. It does not take long for the appeal to wear off - leaving behind a movie with terrible acting, awful special effects, and a nonsensical plot. May be worth watching just to see how bad it is, but I wouldn't recommend it.
32
Amityville: In the Hood (2021)1/5Haunting2020sThe Amityville house is used to grow weed by a local gang. But a rival gang steals the weed to sell on the streets of Compton. What they don't realize is that the weed is demonic and will possess anyone who smokes it.Movie is exactly what you'd expect. Includes a 7 minute argument about a blowjob, a ton of sterotypes, and enough F-bombs to make Rob Zombie blush. Also doesn't utilize the weed at all after the first brief possession. Then halfway in the movie it becomes about a cop, a toy monkey, and killer ghost clown? At least some of the acting is decent.
33
Amityville: ToyBox (2016)1/5Possession2010sA father celebrating his 50th birthday is given a toy monkey as a present. What he doesn't know (And the movie never bothers to tell you) is that it comes from Amityville. The monkey possesses the dad resulting in the slaughter of his family.Grab some friends, a few beers, and spend the rest of the time mocking the absolute trainwreck that is this movie. There are no toyboxes to be had, the characters are laughable (and all the same age) and the lighting and dialogue are just awful. Still fun to make fun of though.
34
Amusement (2008)2/5Slasher2000sA laughing man hunts down three girls in 3 different scenarios in order to torture them. First two stories were pretty fun. Decent enough kills. Gets a bit dull by the end. Nothing worth coming back for. Honestly, it is quite forgettable in the long run.
35
An American Werewolf in London (1981)3/5Werewolf80sTwo American backpackers, David Kesller and Jack Goodman are attacked by a werewolf while travelling through the moores of Yorkshire. Having survived the attack, David finds himself a victim of the werewolfs curse and is doomed to become one during the next full moon.Perfectly blends lighthearted and silly humor with the horror and violence. While a bit dated, they still hold up as some of the best werewolf transformation effects ever filmed. Ending is quite abrupt. Still entertaining to this day.
36
Anna (2017)0/5Supernatural2010sTwo men steal a haunted doll from a paranormal musuem in order to attempt to catch its' hauntings on camera. What they get instead, however, is a doll that can open the gateway to Hell.Amatuer production with bad audio, out of focus shots, shaky cameras, horrible lighting, and terrible set designs. Wastes a lot of time on badly written "humor". The few decent parts are shot in near total darkness making it impossible to see.
37
Anonymous Animals (2021)2/5Fantasy2020sAn alternate reality where animals use humans for sport and food. A silent movie with practically no dialogue whatsoever.Such a frustrating experience. There is a wonderfully dark and artistic movie here but it is hampered by its editing and use of shaky cam. Most scenes are rather short and end with jarring CUTS to black that, after the 6th one, really takes you out of the movie. The shaky cam hurts the otherwise fantastic final act. Still worth watching thanks to its dark and gritty concept and wonderful atmosphere.
38
AntiChrist (2009)4/5Thriller2000sA married couple go on a downward spiral after the death of their son. The husband, a former psychiatrist, takes his grieving wife to their cabin in the woods in order to help her with her depression. He soon realizes there is a lot more going on than mere depression but by that time it may be too late to save her. Starring Willam Dafoe & Charlotte Gainsbourg. Directed by Lars Von Trier.The movie feels like voyerism into an awful situation between husband and wife. Uncomfortable and tense with superb acting, cinematrophy, and symbolism. A dark look into depression and self-loathing that might not be for everyone. **Warning, some genital violence**
39
Antrum (2018)3/5Fake Documentary2010sA documentary about a cursed movie. Supposedly this movie kills anyone who watches it. The movie is about a young boy and his teenager sister who are trying to dig a hole into hell. The first half of the movie is the documentary and the second half is the movie Antrum itself.Very interesting concept. Strewn all throughout the Antrum part of the film are hidden messages, flashes of occult symbolism, and strange phenonenom that only adds to the atmosphere. Has some very creepy moments and takes a good eerie turn near the end. Worth a watch.
40
Apartment 413 (2019)3/5Thriller2010sMarco is in desperate need for a job. His girlfriend is pregnant and he wants to support her and his new baby the best he can. As the stress and anxiety grows, Marco begins questioning everything around him - from his girlfriend's loyality to his very existance. A minimalistic psychological horror. With few cast members and even fewer locations, Apartment 413 nails the claustrophobia and anxiety that Marco is feeling. Ever the unreliable narrator, Marco's spiral into depression leads us into a world where we must question everything that we see. Well paced with likable characters, this was a pleasant surprise.
41
April Fool's Day (2008)2/5Slasher2000sA group of rich friends pull an April Fool's prank that accidentally ends with someone's death. One year later, a mysterious person claims to know the truth behind the prank and threatens to kill the friends unless one of them confesses the truth.April Fool's Day suffers from bland, generic "rich bitch" characters and a predictable storyline. The acting is decent but it lacks any real suspense. Can see the ending a mile away.
42
Arachnophobia (1990)4/5Creature90sA new species of jungle spider ends up in a small town where it reproduces super aggressive offspring.Makes your skin crawl thanks to the use of real-life spiders throughout the entire movie. Likable characters, well paced, with some legit suspense and humor strewn throughout. Who knew you could have an action sequence against a spider?
43
Are You in the House Alone (1978)3/5Thriller70sA 17 year old girl is stalked by a mysterious person who keeps harassing her via letters and phonecalls. Made for TV movie.Movie starts off rather slow with some of the suspense feeling lackluster but picks up during the start of the 3rd act. Depicts the realism of the trauma rape victims go through - from victim blaiming to denial. Wouldn’t say it's a great movie - the pacing really hurts it - but gets its point across in a disturbing way. The ending is unfortunately very abrupt as if they ran out of time.
44
Army of Darkness (1992)3/5Supernatural90sAfter the events of Evil Dead II, Ashley Williams finds himself battling evil in medieval times. He must seek out the Necronomican while facing off against Deadites, demons, and his evil doppleganger. Takes the humor and camp from Evil Dead II and dials it up to 100. Bruce Campbell is on top of his slapstick/narcissistic game here and this is the movie that sets up the definitive version of Ash. The silliness can be a bit too cartoony at times and it's highly recommended to watch the Uncut version for best experience.
45
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. (1978)2/5Monster70sTomatoes turn against humanity. The United States government must now wage war against this dangerous fruit. This parody of monster movies is amusing for its absurdity but the novelity wears thin fast. It's worth watching for B-movie fans but does not really hold enough water to warrant several viewings.
46
Autopsy (1975)2/5Thriller70sDuring a series of mass suicides, a woman is found dead on the beach. Believed to be a murder disguised as a suicide, a young doctor and a priest try to find the truth.A murder mystery that is very bizarre. Not 100% sure what to make of this movie. Good makeup, good gore, and interesting deaths but also a bit confusing and muddled. People may enjoy it for its weirdness. Recommend it to be seen at least once to decide for yourself.
47
Await Further Instructions (2018)3/5Sci-Fi2010sA family wakes up trapt inside their house by an unknown entity. They are given very explicit instructions on the TV with the warning to obey without question if they want to survive.Neat concept. Despicable characters. Insane ending. Really fun special effects at the end. If anything, it keeps your eyes glued to the screen to see what happens next. Some odd plot holes here and there though.
48
Bad Taste (1987)2/5Splatter80sGovernment agents hunt down aliens who want to use human meat in their intergalatic restaraunts. Directed by Peter Jackson.The plot is non-existant. The majority of the movie consists of chase scenes or shoot-outs at a mansion. However, it is oddly entertaining thanks to it's over-the-top violence, practical effects, and stupid humor. Worth a watch.
49
Be My Cat: A Film for Ann (2015)4/5Found Footage2010sA disturbed Romanian man obsessed with Anne Hathaway makes a film explaining why she should be in his latest movie 'Be My Cat'.Uncomfortable and twisted. The main character slips into his obsession and psychotic behavior seemlessly. No over-the-top acting - everything is kept realistic which adds to the tension. Ending may make or break the movie for some but still very gripping.
50
Before Someone Gets Hurt (2018)2/5Haunting2010sParanormal debunkers spend the night in a house where several alleged murders occurred. They soon discover that the home belonged to a local cult who was fixated on returning Lucifer back to Heaven.Decent enough idea and refreshing to see how the kills happened in real time. While the characters have some good moments, they are too unlikable to root for. Too many reliance on practical jokes/fakeouts that kill the tension. Very unsatisfying conclusion.
51
Ben (1972)4/5Creature70sA Sequel to WILLARD (1971) that takes place immediately after the first movie. Super intelligent rat Ben meets a young sick boy who befriends Ben and decides to keep him safe from the police and exterminators. But things get out of hand when the boy is unable to keep Ben and the legion of rats under control.A fun reminder of what it was like using real trained animals on set - Ben the Rat being a joy to watch. The child main character does a great job with his role and you believe his friendship with this rat. Most intense Man Vs Rat finale ever!
52
Beyond the Darkness (1979)3/5Thriller70sAfter the death of his fiance, an embalmer becomes obsessed with perserving his wife's corpse while also murdering any woman who arouses him. His housekeeper uses his broken mental state to take advantage of him and his body. Italian Horror - same director as Absurd. Some great practical makeup and gore. The story is a little slow but also very bizarre - a strange combination of erotica and horror. Feels a bit like Psycho with the main character's obsession with his dead fiance's body. Keeps you invested.
53
Bigfoot: The Lose Case Tapes (2012)2/5Found Footage2010sA small film crew wants to interview someone who supposedly owns the corpse of a real life Bigfoot. When they get to the secluded cabin, they are attacked by something that could, or could not be, a Bigfoot.Had a lot of good ideas but was just too afraid to show the monster until the end. Could have been much better if given more clues to what was really going on. Just did not have a good enough payoff at the end.
54
Bite (2015)2/5Infection2010sA woman is bitten by a strange insect while partying with friends. She begins to transform into an insect-human hybrid that hungers for human flesh.The acting and dialogue can be rough but the real seller is the body-horror and makeup. A great showcase of disgusting practical effects even if the characters are a bit bland and unlikable.
55
Blade (1998)3/5Vampire90sA vampire hunter (Wesley Snipes) seeks to take down an evil vampire organization before they are able to ressurect their vampire god. 90's schlock in all the right places. Wesley Snipes may be the perfect Blade but Stephen Norrington and Donal Logue as the primary villains are just as entertaining. It's cheesey, funny, and violent. As long as you don't take this seriously, you will have a great time.
56
Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows (2000)3/5Supernatural2000sSeveral cliches are fascinated with the Blair Witch movie so they go on a tour of the Black Hills where the movie takes place. Paranoia and suspicions begin to set in after their equipment and research are trashed leaving the group at one another's throats.The first half of the movie feels a bit jarring thanks to the quick sudden editing to different scenes. Really starts picking up steam in the second half with a pretty neat twist near the end. Ends rather abruptly though.
57
Blair Witch Project (1999)4/5Found Footage90sThree college students head off into the woods to make a documentery about the "Blair Witch". While in the forest, they begin experiencing eerie phenomena that push their sanity to their limits. Less about the paranormal experience and more about the dissolution of the group's dynamic. The tension comes mostly from the three growing more and more paranoid, angry, and spiteful as time goes on. Satisfying, well paced, and holds up to this day.
58
Blood Clots (2018) 3/5Anthology2010s7 short stories that include cannibals, werewolves, killer jellyfish, a cthulhu dinner guest, zombies, a woman trapt in a cellar, and a monster in the basement.The stories that work, work well. Those that don’t are short enough so not to distract from the rest of the movie. None of the stories overstay their welcome. Decent enough for a one-time viewing Particularly like the premise for the Zombie story and the Dinner Guest which had some fantastic practical effects.
59
Blood Creek (2008)4/5Supernatural2000sIn 1936 the Nazis sent a professor who specalizes in the occult to study Viking runes in a small West Virginia town. It is there he discovers the key to not only immortality, but ressurection as well. In the present day, one of his victims escapes only to return with his brother to put a stop to the professor's madness. Directed by Joel Schumacher and starring Henry Cavill and Micheal Fassbender.Great use of practical effects. Love the idea of using dead people and animals as undead slaves. The action is intense, on point, and easy to follow for the most part. Some of the editing is a bit jarring and there are a lot of visually dark scenes. Otherwise, a fun ride.
60
BloodRayne (2006)0/5Vampire2000sA vampire seeks revenge against the father that betrayed her. "Based" off the game of the same name. Directed by UWE BOLLThe movie lacks effort and passion by all those involved. The cast are obviously phoning in their performances. The editing is all over the place, the cinematography cheap, and the title character bland and boring. Despite so many things happening on screen, the movie drags on painfully slow and is an absolute chore to get through. WHY ARE THE VAMPIRES SO WEAK?!?!?!
61
Bloodsucking Bastards (2015)3/5Vampire2010sA telemarketing company is turned on its head when their new sales manager (Pedro Pascal) turns out to be a vampire.It's Office Space/The Office meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer. That's it. The humor really shines during the final 30 minutes. Delivers exactly on what it promises.
62
Body Bags (1993)3/5Anthology90sJohn Carpenter's horror anthology. The first story is about a serial killer hiding at a gas station, the second involves a hair transplant that goes terribly wrong, and the third is about an eye transplant that turns its host into a serial killer.Each film is quite fun to watch but feels like it drags a little bit by the third film. Mark Hamill stars in the third story and really steals the show.

Bone Tomhawk (2015)3/5Torture2010sA rogue tribe of cannibalistic Native Americans kidnap members of a small town. Now the sheriff, his eldery deputy, a gunslinger gentleman, and an injured husband must travel through the wilderness to save them. Stars Kurt Russel and Patrick Wilson. While the movie is slow, the interaction between the four main characters is the main selling point. You really get to grow attached to them as they journey to save their friends and family. The sudden violence at the end of the film is very reminiscent of Green Inferno and Cannibal Holocaust. More of a Western than Horror.
64
Boogeyman 2 (2007)3/5Slasher2000sA brother and sister witness the brutal murder of their parents; leading both to believe that the killer was the Boogeyman. Years later, the sister to joins a therapy group in hopes of curing her night terrors. During her stay, a mysterious killer begins slaughtering the patients, using their mental disorders as a way to dispose of them. Co-starring Tobin BellThis movie is baerly connected to the first which is a good thing. It is a solid slasher film with some brutal kills. Isn't anything special but still a fun watch for those who like solid and violent slasher films.
65
Book of Monsters (2018)2/5Monster2010sA shapeshifter sneaks into a girl's 18th birthday party to steal the family's Book of Monsters. It uses the book to summon a wide variety of monsters to slaughter the students in an attempt to take over the world.There is something here. If given better direction and budget, this could have been a Monster version of Evil Dead 2. Feels like the start of a fun "Monster of the week" TV series. Though clunky, the monsters were well designed. The kills are beautifully over-the-top despite being very cheap looking. Would recommend 1 viewing to form opinion.
66
Brain Dead (1990)4/5Sci-Fi90sDr Martin (Bill Pullman) is asked by a friend (Bill Paxton) to use his study of neuroscience to extract a secret formula from a paranoid scientist's mind. However the process causes Dr. Martin to question his sanity as his grip on reality starts slipping.A mind-boggling experience thanks to great editing and surreal set designs. Fans of other "Questioning Reality" movies such as Mouth of Madness or Total Recall would really enjoy it. Fast pace and constantly keeps you guessing on what's really going on.
67
Brainscan (1994)3/5Sci-Fi90sHorror and tech obsessed Micheal discovers an interactive videogame that scans his brain in order to provide him with a unique gaming experience. In the game, Micheal plays a serial killer but soon discovers that his actions have real-world consequences. Starring Edward Furlong.An entertaining 90's romp full of silly tech, fun concepts, and a good cast. Easily the best character is T. Ryder Smith's The Trickster who steals every scene he's in.
68
Bride of Chucky (1998)3/5Slasher90sChucky's former girlfriend Tiffany finds Chucky's remains and ressurects him. After getting into a fight, Chucky kills Tiffany and transfers her soul into another doll. Now they have to hunt down Chucky's old amulet in order to turn human again.A meta and more humorous take on the classic franchise. Jennifer Tilly is a wonderful addition to the series and she and Brad Dourif have real chemistry as Tiffany and Chuckie. Funny though some may be turned off by the sudden shift into horror comedy.
69
Bride of the Re-Animator (1990)4/5Sci-Fi90sHerbert West and Dan Cain return home to continue their experiments reanimating the dead. After discovering that he can attach and reanimate different body parts together, West convinces Cain to rebuild Cains deceased fiance from the previous movie.One of the few horror sequels that lives up to the original. It dials up the insanity by a hundred. Keeps the high quality special effects and over-the-top gore of the first film while adding its own style and madness to the mix.
70
BrightBurn (2019)2/5Sci-Fi2010sA young boy discovers that he is from an alien race that conquers planets. "What is Superman became evil".Has a few good kills and moments of legit suspense. However the movie's biggest problem is the lack of character development for the young boy. He goes from "good" to "evil" almost immediately. Not bad by any means, but can be seen as a bit disappointing by some.
71
Bubba Ho-Tep (2002)3/5Monster2000sElderly Elvis and Black JFK Jr need to join forces to stop an ancient mummy from sucking the souls from the residents of an old folks home.Bruce Campbell nails the look and persona of Elvis. The movie takes itself rather seriously which is where the dry humor really shines. The overall novelty of the idea does start to fade by the third act though and can drag a little bit in the middle.
72
Bucket of Blood (1959)4/5Slasher50sWalter is a simple busboy who wants nothing more than to be a successful artist. An accident results in the dead of his landlady's cat. In a bout of artistic frustration, Walter covers the cat in plaster and passes it off as art. It's popularity leads him to take on more drastic measures to replicate his success.A delciously low-budget satire on the beatnik craze. Mixes absurd humor with some great suspense. Short, sweet, and to the point. Does what it means to do without any filler or fluff.
73
C.H.U.D. (1984)3/5Monster80sSewer-dwelling homeless have begun disappearing. A detective, reverend, and photographer team up to uncover the truth of these disappearances only to discover a race of cannibalistic mutants. Classic story of corrupt politicians vs the lower class. Good monster design and really enjoy seeing a young Daniel Stern. Feels like it starts treading water/dragging about halfway through. Does pick back up near the last 15 minutes.
74
Cabin Fever (2016) 2/5Infection2010sAn remake of the 2005 movie of the same name. Five friends go to a cabin in the woods for a vacation only to be infected by some kind of horrible disease that rots them from the inside out. The practical effects and gore are top notch but unfortunately they are this movie's only redeeming value. The characters are unlikable, the plot generic, and the decisions ridiculous. An unnecessary remake.
75
Cam (2018)2/5Found Footage2010sWebcam girl who pushes extremes has her identity stolen by an unknown entity who tries to ruin her life.Decent concept of the frustrations of identity theft and the cruelty of anonymous people on internet. Lacks real depth in the end.
76
Carne the Taco Maker (2014)1/5Slasher2010People do not realize that their favorite Taco stand sells human meat. [WARNING: SHOWS REAL DEAD ANIMALS] Instead of showing the kills, cuts to a real image of an animal in a slaughterhouse. Bad audio, terrible lighting, horrid special effects, and actors who constantly mess up their lines. Obviously inspired by Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1 and 2. Don Taco & his mother are hands down the best characters in the movie.
77
Carrie (1976)5/5Supernatural70sHighschooler Carrie White is relentlessly bullied both at school by her classmates and at home by her religious zealot mother. But when things go horrible wrong at the high school prom, Carrie uses her newly discovered psychic powers to extract her revenge.Hands down the best Stephen King adaptation to date. There is not one person miscast in this film - with Sissy Spacek is perfect as the awkward and timid Carrie White but the movie's real horror comes from the flawless performance by Piper Laurie who plays Carrie's Mom. Her performance is still frightening to this day.
78
Cathy's Curse (1977)3/5Possession70sA little girl gets possessed by a powerful entity after coming in contact with a creepy doll found in the attic. Now the mother must find a way to stop Cathy before its too late.Engaging - always wanting to know what happens next. The casual brutality of some of the deaths is quite shocking. Some of the special effects have not aged well and the ending is very sudden. Otherwise, very well done!
79
Cell (2016)2/5Sci-Fi2010sA mysterious cell phone signal causes anyone who hears it to go insane. Now graphic novelist Clay and his companions must figure out the cause of this "techno-virus" and save the ones they love. Based off the novel by Stephen King.Nothing inherently bad but still comes across as slow and dull. The action sequences are the highlight of the movie. John Cusack and Sam Jackson have great chemistry and work well together. The ending feels tacked on and pointless.
80
Chest (2022)1/5Found Footage2020sA group of documentary film-makers visit the Appalachian mountains in search of a mysterious box. They soon discover that some mysteries are better left undisturbed. Based on real urban legends.While the acting & lore has its moment , most the movie revolves around interviewing others. Not usually a bad thing but very little happens to break up the monotony. Does not feel like a Found Footage movie due to how perfect most the shots are and the use of random background music. The final act is so silly that it is impossible to take serious.
81
Chill: The Killing Games (2013)1/5Slasher2010sIn the 80s a group of teens decided to play a "LARP"-style game called CHILL where one pretends to be the killer and others must figure out who it is. But things go wrong when the killer takes his job too seriously. Now, an internet influencer wants to recreate the game and broadcast live on the net. As expected, those involved end up getting killed for real. Supposedly made with a 3,000-8,000$ budget.Admire the attempt of making a slasher movie with such a micro-budget but still does not make up for the horrible audio quality, the stiff acting, terrible dialogue, and the fact that the movie is nearly 2 hours long. Legit forgot that over half the cast was even in the movie at some parts as they only show up for a few minutes before vanishing until their next scene.. The gore is decent enough but not so much to excuse the agonizingly long and drawn-out story.
82
Chompy and the Girls (2021)3/5Sci-Fi2020sAn estranged father and daughter meet up at the park only to witness a man swallowing a girl whole.An absurd idea that never wears thin thanks to an interesting premise that keeps you guessing from start to finish. A wonderful example of Low-Budget movie done right. Well acted, well produced, and just well done overall. Highly recommend checking it out.
83
Chopping Mall (1986)5/5Sci-Fi80sMall security robots go on a killer rampage after being struck by lightning.This is the quinessential 80s B-movie. A kick-ass synth soundtrack, great one-liners, a lot of humor, and fantastic kills. A beautiful snapshot of the 80s mall culture. Thank you. Have a nice day.
84
Chrome Skull: Laid to Rest 2 (2011)3/5Splatter2010sIt is revealed the Chromeskull (who survived his injuries from the first movie) is actually the leader of an evil organization. While he begins hunting down a new victim, his second-in-command works to overthrow Chromeskull to take over as the organization's new leader.Feels cheaper and more low budget than the first moviey. While the story is decent, you are here for the grotesque kills which this movie has in spades. Fantastic practical effects that needs to be seen for any fans of classic makeup.
85
City of the Living Dead (1980)3/5Zombie80sA priest's suicide opens the gates of hell resulting in the dead walking the earth. Now a cop and a medium must join forces to figure out a way to put an end to this madness before it is too late. Directed by Lucio Fulci. Lucio Fulci just nails it with the practical effects. Hands down has some of the best gore makeup. Overall it is well done from start to finish. Has some odd/pointless moments here and there. The ending is unusual but does not detract from the move as a whole.
86
Class of Nuke'em High (1986)2/5Infection80sA nuclear power plant has been built next to a local highschool. The resulting radiation has begun to leak into the school causing mutations, deaths, and unusual pregnancies. A Troma film. Despite moments of good humor and gore, the movie lacks any real structure or cohesion. Feels like several small ideas stitched together with lots of filler in between.
87
Clown (2016)2/5Possession2010sA father finds a clown costume and uses it to perform at his kid's birthday party. What he does not know is the costume is made from clown skin! He must find a way to remove it before it turns him into a child-eating clown demon!Good makeup and overall idea but falls flat in the middle of the movie. Picks up again near the end. A good film to check out at least once but does not really have any lasting appeal overall. Fun kills though.
88
Conjuring the Genie (2021)2/5Fantasy2020s A teenager suffering from the loss of her father accidentally unleashes a cruel Djinn that grants wishes in exchange for your soul.The Diet coke of Wishmaster. Acting and story are passable. Costumes for the monsters are serviceable but very dated. Would honestly be a good movie for younger audiences as an introduction to horror.
89
Cooties (2014)3/5Infection2010sInfected chicken nuggets turn prepubescent children into blood thirsty monsters. The movie is pretty funny, well acted, and has some great kills. A fun take on zombies and the infected. Slows down drastically during the final act and unfortunately the joke of zombie kids wears thin by the end of the movie.
90
Creature (1985)3/5Sci-Fi80sRival space companies must band together for survival when they uncover an ancient alien creature that can control human bodies.Huge ALIEN vibes mixed with the Thing. Love the aesthetic with the space suits and set designs. Good gore and fun kills (Head explosions are always a plus). The movie unfortunately suffers from being so dark that most the details are lost.
91
Creature Cabin (Tarnation) (2017)3/5Possession2010sAfter being kicked out of her band, Oscar and her friends decide to go to a remote cabin in the woods for a little R&R. Oscar then learns that she has been "chosen" by a cult that worships a demonic unicorn. She must now fight against zombie kangaroos, human-faced spiders, and her possessed friends while trying to escape.This movie is dumb. It is pure stupidity and that is what makes it great. It is as if Brain Dead, Evil Dead 2, and Troma films had a baby. The stunts are surprisingly very good, the gore silly and gross, and the comedy surprisingly well done. The ending is a bit much on the stupid scale and the beginnging has some bad audio, but other than that, it is a lot of fun.
92
Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954)5/5Monster50sA group of archeologists discover a mysterious fossil in the Amazon. While exploring a nearby lagoon, they come across an ancient 'Gill Man' which they intend to capture and study.The under water stunts are just spectacular. The way diver Ricou Browning is able to hold his breath and perform without any tanks is nothing short than extraordinary. The inky blackness of the lagoon combined with how still the Creature can be really adds to the suspense. Has aged beautifully.
93
CreepShow 3 (2006)1/5Anthology2000sLight hearted tales of horror and the macbre. Includes a family with a weird "universal remote", a seductive radio, a killer call girl, and more.The Second short is by far the best with the third being passable. The rest just try way to hard to be silly. The soundtrack is silly and out of place and the acting all over the place. Painfully long final act that really tests your patience.
94
CUBE (1997)4/5Sci-Fi90sPeople wake up inside a gigantic structure where every cube-like room is identical. They must try to figure a way out while avoiding deadly traps that lay hidden within the maze.Before SAW there was CUBE. The set design, traps, and concept all work together to create a rather thrilling and intense ride. The Deaths are memorable and the Cube feels like a living, breathing facility thanks to its rotating rooms and insane traps.
95
CUBE (2021)3/5Sci-Fi2020sA group of strangers awaken in a massive maze where every room is identical. They must join forces and figure out the mystery behind the CUBE least they fall victim to the maze's many traps. A Japanese remake of the original movie.A much higher emphasis on the characters and their dynamics than the previous films. Where those balanced the brutality of the traps with the paranoa of the characters, this remake focuses more on the characters themselves thus creating a slower but suspensful burn.
96
Cube 2: Hypercube (2002)2/5Sci-Fi2000sA group of strangers wake up in a a series of sterile white room with doors on every wall. Each room contains deadly traps that seem to bend time, space, and physical boundries. They must find a way to escape before the cube collapses in upon itself.Whereas the original was gritty and clastraphobic, Hypercube is very stylized and clean. Appreciate that they attempted something different but the dated CGI and sterile enviroments are distracting. Still a good watch for CUBE fans, but not as good as the original.
97
Cube Zero (2004)4/5Sci-Fi2000sA group of strangers wake up in a series of similar looking rooms wth doors on every wall. With each room they explore, the risk of ending up in a trapped room increases. They are monitored by two men who seem to work for whatever agency created the deadly CUBE. The more violent "prequel" to the original Cube. Adds some depth to the storyline thanks to the inclusion of two "Company men" who apparently monitor and test the victims inside. A solid addition to the CUBE franchise.
98
Cult of Chucky (2017)4/5Slasher2010sContinuing where Curse left off, Chucky breaks into an insane asylum to continue his hunt of Nina, the woman from the previous film. This time he is splitting his soul into multiple Chucky Dolls in the hopes of building a supernatural army. While not as dark or serious than Curse, Cult continues to ramp up the kills while pushing the Chucky storyline forward. Adds some great twists to the formula that you may or may not like.
99
Curse of Chucky (2013)4/5Slasher2010sChucky is back and hungry for blood! This time he is hunting down a paraplegic woman who has ties to his past. Woe upon those who get in his way. A wonderful return to form for the long running franchise. After the silliness that was Seed, this is a breath of fresh air as Curse returns to its dark slasher roots. Chucky continues to look great with its practical effects and the kills are all top notch.
100
Curse of Humpty Dumpty (2021)3/5Thriller2020sAn elderly woman finds her old childhood doll of Humpty Dumpty at an antique shop. Shortly after bringing it home, however, terrible things begin to happen. Is it all in her head or is there something more sinister at work? Shockingly VERY well done. Expected to be a cheap, low budget, Syfy channel movie but instead got a very well acted, well paced, and well done thriller. Was not flawless - movie was very dark at some points and could use a bit more clarity for the ending - but overall a pleasant surprise.
