"Ghost Ship" (2002) 

A salvage crew boards a long-lost luxury liner that vanished 40 years previously... and one by one, they discover the rusty hulk is home to a supernatural force that won't let them leave. I've seen this underrated modern-horror flick several times over the years and have always enjoyed its creepy-cool back story, spooky set design, and gory death scenes. Cool stuff.

Cold Skin. In 1914 a young man takes up a post as a weather observer on a distant island. His only company is the lighthouse keeper who seems to wonder about mostly naked. He becomes aware however that there are other things living on the island. The two men wage a lonely war against the apparently hostile creatures on the edge of the world. Who are the real monsters though?

This sounds interesting.  When was it made?

"Silver Bullet" (1985)
A wheelchair-bound teen (Corey Haim) and his big sister set a trap for the werewolf that's been terrorizing their small town, with some help from their favorite drunk Uncle (Gary Busey).
A fun, tongue-in cheek horror flick based on the Stephen King novella "Cycle of the Werewolf," it's not a top drawer King adaptation but it's good gory '80s style fun.

Cold and snowy today so the wife and I had a "Stay Inside & Watch Movies" marathon thanks to TUBI-TV. Been a while since I've seen this many flicks in one day...

"Don't F*** In The Woods" (2016)
Seriously, how can you pass up a movie with a title like THAT? Unfortunately, it's the best thing about this micro-budget, shot on video horror flick about a group of annoying twenty-somethings who go on a camping trip and then get killed off by a creature who apparently doesn't like the sound of uglies bumpin'. Yep, real high concept stuff.
If watching a bunch of skeezy, pierced & tattooed non-actors performing in the least sexy sex scenes ever filmed before their cheap, gory death scenes sounds like your deal, go nuts. I think I've had about enough of these "GoFundMe" horror movies.

"Bunni" (2013)
Continuing down the sh**ty shot-on-video horror rabbit hole (pun intended)...
A group of revelers on their way home from a Halloween party decide to break into an abandoned costume shop, and learn that the old place is home to a lady slasher in a Playboy bunny outfit who's not fond of trespassers.
...yes, seriously.
Once again, nobody in this movie can act worth a spit, but the gore is gloriously cheap sickness and the girls are nice to look at, which puts this flick a few notches above "Don't F*** In The Woods," even though that's faint praise.

"Suburban Gothic" (2014)
A slacker with a budding interest in the paranormal is forced to move back into his parents' home, just in time to help unravel a supernatural mystery occurring at the ol' homestead. This quirky horror/fantasy comedy is kinda like a low-rent mashup of "Beetlejuice" and "The Frighteners," it's not great but it had a few good laughs and mainly gets by thanks to the charm of its two leads, Matthew Gray Gubler of "Criminal Minds" and Kat Dennings of "Two Broke Girls."

"The Cabin In The Woods" (2012)
Five twenty-somethings on a weekend outing in the middle of nowhere accidentally awaken an ancient evil. Sounds familiar, but little do they know everything that's happening to them is being controlled from behind the scenes, as part of something even bigger. Joss "Buffy" Whedon co-wrote this cult horror/sci-fi hit that takes all of the cliches' of horror films and puts them through the wringer to create something entertaining, weird and original. Recommended.

"Solo: A Star Wars Story" (2018)
Alden Ehrenreich (who?) stars as young Han Solo in the beloved smuggler's "origin story," which takes us back to his days as a struggling young hustler and wanna-be outlaw who hooks up with a more experienced thief (Woody Harrelson) for a dangerous job involving some very bad people. Along the way, he meets his future co-pilot Chewie for the first time and gains ownership of the Millennium Falcon from his fellow pirate Lando Calrissian, along with plenty of high speed space battles, fist fights and impressive action sequences.
"Solo" had a troubled production (the original directors were fired halfway through filming and Ron Howard was brought in to "fix" the movie) and under-performed at the box office, which has threatened the future of the "Star Wars Story" adventures. That's a shame, because I thought this flick was great fun and I would have liked to see more stand-alone films like this one.

A GREAT LAMP (2019): Stories involving three disaffected young men: one has quit his insurance job but pretends to go to work to avoid disappointing his father, one wears a skirt and posts flyers with pictures of his dead mother, and the last is a troubled but childlike fellow who is eagerly awaiting a rocket launch. An experimental series of sometime dreamlike vignettes about good-hearted outsiders, incorporating animation and fantasy; some of the individual scenes work well, but I can't quite figure out if the filmmakers overthought or underthought the project as a whole. 2/5.

GREEN BOOK: A crude Italian-American bouncer hires on to chauffeur an educated black musical prodigy through a tour of the deep south in 1962. Predictable as hell, but if you think of it as an odd couple road trip rather than a clumsy tolerance parable, you can enjoy the great comic chemistry between Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali. 3/5.

"Lone Wolf McQuade" (1983)
Chuck Norris is a bad-ass Texas Ranger sworn to bring down a slimy arms dealer (David Carradine) who's been hijacking military weapons shipments and selling the goods to terrorists. As you might expect, lots of butts are kicked and stuff blows up frequently.
...so in other words, this was basically the ultra-violent pilot episode to "Walker, Texas Ranger," made ten years early. :D Strangely, this was my first ever viewing of this flick; I think for a long time I had it confused with "Silent Rage," which I have seen.

You do know it is a law in every country in the world that when watching Chuck Norris movies, you must down a shot every time he does a roundhouse kick don't you?

"House" (2008)
Not to be confused with the '80s horror classic "House" or the '70s Japanese flick "Hausu" (aka "House"), this flick is about a pair of squabbling couples who find themselves trapped at a back-woods bed & breakfast one stormy night after a traffic accident. They think they've found a safe haven but as they poke around the creepy ol' place they eventually learn that it's home to a supernatural evil that (of course) has nefarious plans for them all.
This flick started off promising, but began losing steam about half way thru and completely fell apart in the last quarter. It's got a few decent creepy moments and decent performances by horror mainstay Bill "Chop Top" Mosely and the always-welcome Michael Madsen, though, so I've sat thru worse.

THE VAST OF NIGHT (2019): In 1950s New Mexico, a teenage radio DJ and his switchboard operator girlfriend hear and broadcast weird noises coming from space. Well-acted and done with some style, but for a "Twilight Zone"-inspired story it's way too talky, and ultimately lacks a real sense of mystery and wonder. A generous 2/5.

BRAID (2018): Two girls scheme to steal from their rich, but psychotic, old friend, but doing so requires them to go along with her fantasies: "the Game." Starts out as a trashy, slightly trippy B-movie horror thriller, takes a mildly mindbending turn in the final act. 2.5/5.

"Joan Jett: Bad Reputation" (2018)
Cool documentary covering the highs and lows of Joan Jett's storied career. Clips and interviews examine her humble beginnings with the Runaways in the 70s, the global superstardom as a solo artist in the 80s, her impact on the "riot grrl" movement in the 90s, and caps things off with her well deserved induction into the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame in the 2000s. No matter what decade it is, JJ is still badass.
