"Batman: Gotham By Gaslight" (2018)

The infamous serial killer Jack The Ripper is carving up prostitutes in Victorian-era Gotham City and the only man who can stop the murder spree is the steampunk Dark Knight, with a little help from his lady love Selina Kyle and some street urchins named Dick, Jason and Tim. This cool animated "alternate universe" Batman tale set in the late 1800s is based on the now classic graphic novel and features lots of twists and gory animated ultra-violence, so it is definitely not a cartoon for the kiddies.

The Lookout (2007) - this isn't any kind of epic masterpiece, but if you enjoy some good acting and writing and believable sort of crime drama type storylines check it out.

A hockey star is in a terrible accident and is left with brain damage. then...he ends up getting involved in a bank robbery. Basically its a combination of bank robbery by amateurs and newly handicapped sports guy getting back on his feet cliches, but I liked it. Jeff daniels and joseph gordon leavitt whatver his name is are the big stars but Mathew Goode as the head robbery guy stole the show for me.

4/5

Schlock-tober Entry #11:
"Trick or Treats" (1982)
A bimbo babysitter is hired by a wealthy family to watch over their spoiled brat child on Halloween night, so she has to skip out on a date with her boyfriend. If that didn't suck enough, a maniac has escaped from the local insane asylum and he's dropping by for a visit.

Yup, that's the enitre plot to this slow moving, dull as dirt "Halloween" knock-off that can't seem to decide if it wants to be a legit slasher flick or a tongue-in-cheek horror spoof. After a while the only reason I was still watching this steaming pile was cuz the leading lady was hot and she was wearing a skimpy nightgown.
AVOID.

Schlock-tober entry #12:
A "Werewolf Wednesday" double-feature!

"Bad Moon" (1996)
A woman welcomes her estranged brother, who's fallen on hard times, into her family's home. Their German Shepherd soon discovers why the guy hasn't been around much: he's a werewolf. Can the faithful pooch protect his brood when the Moon comes out again?
I wasn't expecting much from this mostly forgotten 90s horror flick but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The werewolf effects are pretty crap, but there's some decent gore and you'll actually find yourself rooting for the heroic dog as he defends his family from the monster! haha.

"Howling II: Your Sister Is A Werewolf" (1985)
After his sister is killed by a werewolf, a man and his girlfriend accompany an occult expert and creature hunter (Christopher Lee) to Transylvania (?) to destroy the Werewolf Queen (Sybil Danning) and end the curse.
This is widely considered to be one of the worst horror sequels ever, and it's easy to see why. The plot makes no sense, the acting is hammy, and the effects suck. if it weren't for Sybil Danning getting her boobs out on a regular basis this flick would have put me to sleep.
AVOID.

Gone (2012) - This is one of those movies where if you analyzed it you'd probably find some plot holes, but it wins you over so you don't analyze it. Here's one though: we all know car chases nowadays involve helicopters and the cops always win so why try and... aaah forget it

Amanda Seyfried > reality 4/5



It's not "The Prestige" or something but it achieves its very modest goals

Schlock-tober entry #13:
"Mausoleum" (1983)
A housewife is slowly possessed by the demonic spirit that killed her mother twenty years ago, leading to mucho murder and mayhem.
This 80s video store perennial is poorly acted & edited, and loaded with cheap FX and WTF moments, but the leading lady was cute and she was frequently topless, so at least I wasn't bored. Strangely enough, very little of the story takes place in a mausoleum, in spite of the film's title. Go figure...

Schlock-tober Entry #14: "Halloween Tradition" Double Feature (i.e. Stuff I Watch Every October)

"Trick r' Treat" (2007)
Michael "Krampus" Dougherty's cool "Creepshow" style horror anthology features a bunch of stories all set in the same town on Halloween night, featuring characters which cross in and out of each others' paths. Lots of cool, creepy fun; one of the best Halloween-themed flicks I've seen in a long time. This has become an October perennial for me.

"Halloween III: Season of the Witch" (1982)
A small town doctor uncovers a Druid plot to murder millions of children on Halloween with booby trapped masks set off by a sinister TV signal.
"III" has always been the red headed step kid of the "Halloween" series but in my book it doesn't really deserve all the hate it gets  - Michael Myers had been killed at the end of the last film, so "III" was supposed to steer the franchise into a series of annual,  stand-alone horror films. Obviously that didn't work, but this entertainingly weird mix of horror and sci-fi is still a pretty decent spook show in its own right, and is just about the only "Halloween" film I'm not terminally sick of at this point.

Schlock-tober entry #15

 "Boogeyman" ( 2005)
Fifteen years after his father's mysterious death, a young man (Barry Watson of TV's "7th Heaven") returns to his childhood home to finally face the supernatural entity that has haunted him ever since..
Pretty standard teen-horror stuff that clicks off all the usual cliches. "Boogeyman" didn't totally suck but it was quite generic - six months from now I probably won't even remember I saw it.

SLICE (2018): In a town where ghosts (and other supernatural entities) coexist with the living, the local werewolf is blamed for a series of murders of pizza delivery boys. Some good ideas in this sporadically amusing near-miss comedy that might have benefited from a longer running time--or even a TV series--to explore its setting and its many underdeveloped characters. A disappointing 2/5.

Split (2012) - kind of like a good Law and Order SVU episode. plot holes (no one saw them getting kidnapped at a mall in broad daylight?) and sloppy writing (victim's gratuitous backstory) give it a rushed feel and sequel baiting indicates where we are in 2018 I guess 4/5

SCARLET DIVA (2000): A hot young Italian actress has dirty sex, encounters Hollywood phonies, and does too much Special K while looking for true love. Asia Argento's self-indulgent autobiography is... a sleazy softcore exploitation piece. Huh. It shows all the subtlety and taste you would expect from an actress with an angel tattooed directly over her pubes. The rapist producer is a thinly disguised Harvey Weinstein. 2.5/5.

"Dracula A.D. 1972" (1972)
It's been one hundred years since Count Dracula (Christopher Lee) and Van Helsing (Peter Cushing) battled to the death. When some swingin' London teens resurrect the Count by messing with black magic, he begins a new reign of terror. Fortunately Van Helsing's grandson (Cushing again) is ready to continue the fight against evil.
Lee and Cushing are always fun to watch and the flick also features some nice eye candy courtesy of Brit babes Stephanie Beacham and Caroline Munro. A shag-a-delic campy-cool terror treat from England's legendary Hammer Studios.

THE LEGEND OF HALLOWEEN JACK - Yeah, I rented this out of the redbox and it was really bad.  2/5 at best!

"Daphne & Velma" (2018)

For some reason, the female members of the Mystery Machine gang from "Scooby Doo" now have their own spinoff film. "D&V" is a prequel that shows how the gals first met at their hi-tech high school and solved their first mystery, when the school's best & brightest students suddenly start turning into brain dead zombies. There's no Scooby, no Shaggy, no Fred...and no point.

This cheap looking DTV piece of crap will probably be a tough slog even for kids who are fans of the Scooby franchise (my 11 year old bailed at the halfway point), and if you don't have kids, there's no reason to bother. This flick makes the awful live-action "Scooby" movies from the early 00s look like the Royal Shakespeare Company. Hell, even the infamous "Scooby Doo" porn parody had better production values (and a hotter Daphne & Velma)!

SORRY TO BOTHER YOU (2018): When telemarketer Cassius Green learns to use his "white voice," he shoots up the corporate ranks, becomes a "power caller," and is asked to compromise his principles in a shocking way. Seemingly coming out of nowhere, rapper Boots Riley crafts a fresh, slightly surreal capitalist satire; it gets a little wild and threatens to jump the tracks, but always stays funny. You will never guess the third act twist. 4.5/5.
