The husband in this movie is a piece of jealous shit, and I feel like this movie was written with this piece of shit as the main character. If he didn't act like his wife was banging her brother, I wouldn't be as annoyed with him. And unfortunately incest doesn't seem to actually be on the menu for the movie. It's just written that bad.

Last movie of the day - Beauty and the Beast (1962).

Haven't seen it before, but as one of the genres is horror, I'm hoping for something with a gothic feel.

Oh, apparently 1984, Amazon Prime has it wrong.

So far it's not. Looks and sounds like it's shot with a tin can, and I feel like I'm watching a porn without any of the sex or nudity, or innuendos.

I love how this Beauty and the Beast movie feels more like a werewolf flick :P

Honestly, if you've seen any of Andy Milligan's other films. Carnage is easily the one that didn't suck the most. Go watch Monstrosity it's god awful in comparison.

I wish that Beauty and the Beast had gone with a different, less cliched ending, but I guess I'm not overly surprised by the route it took.

Of the three films I saw today, best one was the one I'd seen before, being 1932's The Monster Walks.

Dead Shack was very entertaining. Would possibly own because I sense good replay value. Wished it did a little more with the zombie stuff though.

Now starting Goal of the Dead.

Apparently this is a 20 minute shorter version I'm watching, but oh well.

Checking out Ghastlies, a throwback to 80's knee highed bastard creature flicks.

Had the humor in Ghastlies actually been kinda funny, I'd have graded it a D. Had there been a lot better nudity too, would've been bumped to a C.
