That's probably one of the best found footage films from the last decade. I really enjoy the first one (though I've not seen the director's cut yet), and the other two are okay, but if you stop at the first, you're hopefully in for a decent time.

I watched Motel Hell for the first time in what has to be 15 years. Nice to finally revisit that, and I ended up enjoying a bit more than I was anticipating.

This is the Directors cut. I really really hate found footage films I can only stomach one a Challenge.

Finally getting a chance for movies again! Silly work!
Put on Autopsy of Jane Doe. Only second viewing. I remember really liking it the first time. Now that I know the twist, I understand more this time.

The Blob (1988) First Time Viewing

Gotta be the most well-known 80s horror flick I've yet to see. Halfway in, it's shaping up to be among the best of them. Really enjoying it so far.

Shivers (1975) First time viewing

One of Cronenberg's first movies. Awfully boring so far and I'm already halfway in.

After taking yesterday off because of a doctor's appointment that lasted FOREVER and my lack of focus after that, I decided to make it interesting for me today
and make it a 70's day. One movie from each year. Catch you later!

About halfway through The Red Queen Kills Seven Times, or La dama rossa uccide sette volte (1972). By the same director who did The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave, Emilio Miraglia. The kills (save one) haven't been that memorable, but the mystery is pretty solid.

Its rated PG but I thought it was one of the better made giallos I've seen

Finishing off the day with Eight Legged Freaks. Looking forward to this, as I've not seen it in a long-ass time (between seven and 15 years).

Updated my list.

Both The Red Queen Kills Seven Times and Eight Legged Freaks would be today's best movies, but for most WTF factor, there's the anthology Satan Place: A Soap Opera from Hell from 1988, which was interesting.

Hope you enjoy. Probably one of my favorite Asian films from the 1970's.
