another rarely mentioned halloween one, HAUNTEDWEEN  (contender for worst wordplay attempt in a horror title ever?)

I saw a movie once called S.I.C.K. (Serial Insane Clown Killer.)  It had a fat guy that wore clown makeup for no reason and put little dolls everywhere also for no reason. 

The Newlydeads (1988)



Before Joseph Merhi and Richard Pepin founded PM Entertainment, they had a company called City Lights, producing and directing mostly horror movies. The Newlydeads was one of them: the zombified ghost of a transvestite is haunting a honeymoon resort, killing couples in a Friday the 13th manner. Zero budget supernatural slasher that doesn't hold back on the gory stuff. Pretty bad but also kind of fun to watch.

Yeah, I'm not using "fingered." 

Johnny Got His Gun (1971)

CABRINI: Nun Mother Cabrini is determined to found an orphanage in late 1800s among Italian immigrants in New York City, persisting in the face of Church indifference, violent xenophobia, and her own failing health. The director of "Sound of Freedom" wants to prove he can make a "serious" Oscar-caliber faith-based movie; this inspirational biopic, which is heartfelt but obvious, is the result. 3/5.

Nobody ever talks about the movie Jack-O, but I consider it a must every Halloween.

I've seen that couple of years ago after GGTMC podcast reviewed it, and it was cool.

Chronicle (2012)

Three high school boys find a mysterious object which gives them superpowers. One of them is an emotionally disturbed teen who is bullied. This goes about as well as can be expected.

This is a found footage movie. This is made vaguely plausible, by making the main character socially awkward which motivates the compulsive filming. Also by having him telekinetically manipulate the camera, he can take 3rd person shots. Even so, some scenes are quite gimmicky, even with the addition of other footage, such as security cameras, newscasts etc. This format also makes it difficult to see what is going on in the climax (which may be intentional)

The main disappointment is that it is completely by the numbers. It follows the 'bullied nerd getting superpowers and going berserk' trope pretty closely. Not exactly bad, but without surprises.

For our South African friends, this was apparently mainly filmed in South Africa

Indeed it was filmed here 😁😁😎🇿🇦

"Beerfest" (2006)
To avenge their family's honor, two American brothers form an all-star drinking team to compete in "Beerfest," a secret drinking competition held in Munich during Oktoberfest.
A very raunchy but extremely funny comedy from the Broken Lizard troupe that will make you feel very thirsty.

"Malibu's Most Wanted" (2003)
"B-Rad," a dorky white wanna-be rapper (Jamie Kennedy) from a wealthy Malibu family is an embarrassment to his father, who's running for governor of California. Dad's campaign team comes up with a unique plan to "scare the black out of him" by dropping him in South Central to meet real gangstas, but things don't turn out as planned. A dumb but likeable comedy that squeezes the maximum out of its one-joke premise.

Video Violence


(man, look at that SUPER Retro Old Fashioned VCR!)

A husband and wife arrive in a small town and open a video store, only to find out the town makes it's own movies, snuff movies!


The writer and director sold the rights to Camp Video because they were the only ones to offer to design video box art and has also claimed the film had a budget of $6.  The sequel looks even cheaper and has no actual plot. 

AXE EM aka THE WEEKEND IT LIVES (1992)

What a pile of 💩
