October 2010

The Equinox: A Journey Into the Supernatural (Woods et al., 1970)|||||3.5
Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens (Murnau, 1922)|||||8
New Nightmare (Craven, 1994)|||||5
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (Lord & Miller, 2009)|||||5.5
* Planet of the Vampires (Bava, 1965)|||||5.5
Rabid Dogs (Bava, 1974)|||||5
* Tales from the Hood (Cundieff, 1995)|||||5
* Night Tide (Harrington, 1961)|||||5.5
Lemora: A Child's Tale of the Supernatural (Blackburn, 1973)|||||6
The Human Centipede (First Sequence) (Six, 2010)|||||4
Stupid and mostly shoddy, but it at least approaches fulfilling its provocative premise with the needed poignancy and sense of the ordeal.
The Plague of the Zombies (Gilling, 1966)|||||5.5
Bigger Than Life (Ray, 1956)|||||8.5
Joins The Prowler as a 50s film that slow-burns through a seemingly prosaic set-up but eventually blows up to mind-blowing allegorical proportions.
* "The Damned Thing" (Hooper, 2006) (Masters of Horror, Season 2) (TV Series)|||||2.5
* "Dance of the Dead" (Hooper, 2005) (Masters of Horror, Season 1) (TV Series)|||||5
Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (Hickox, 1992)|||||4
Hellbound: Hellraiser (Randel, 1988)|||||4.5
Too bad director Tony Randel only went on to an Amityville sequel and Power Rangers episodes, because he does shockingly A-class work here.
* Martin (Romero, 1977)|||||8.5
The House That Dripped Blood (Duffell, 1971)|||||4
The Wizard of Gore (Lewis, 1970)|||||4
The Social Network (Fincher, 2010)|||||8
