I now have Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat going. What a gem.

How in the fuck have I missed this one? I need to watch it when I get a chance.

Bram Stoker's Dracula, baby. My favorite version. And I don't think Keanu is really *that* bad in it. Awkward, but I think he mostly just stands out among the rest of the powerhouse cast.

It eluded me for years, in spite of being vaguely aware of it. Found it on Shudder or Prime a couple years ago (or last year? I'd have to check) and loved it. It's like everything and the kitchen sink thrown in, and Hickox didn't give a fuck it was the last movie Vestron was producing, he put all effort in. Could be bloodier, but even the cheap bat fx are charming as hell.

Movie I was watching crapped out an hour and 16 minutes in (out of a 90 minute movie).

Tried on both my DVD player and computer, neither worked.

Bought another DVD copy, and am hoping it gets here before October so I can finish the last 15 minutes and count it.

God, this pisses me off, and also makes me worry for the other movies on the same DVD set - Tomb of Terrors 50-movie pack.

That sucks balls, Jiggers. I've come across something like that on another collection a long time ago. Usually the other movies were okay, so hopefully the same goes for yours.

I didn't really want to watch all of them to find out.

Trying to relax my soul with a time-traveling werewolf movie from the UK. Seems good fun so far.

Yay my Final Exam Blu-ray came today so im watching that

[Tiggnutz]

Barbarian will be streaming on HBOMAX tomorrow

[Tiggnutz]

I always get Graduation Day and Final Exam confused

Graduation Day is the better of the two. Final Exam is extremely dull.

This is dull as shit

[Tiggnutz]

New watch is another 1959 film First Man into Space

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Got Interview with the Vampire going. And no not the new AMC one that had to completely rewrite and change the starting century to justify casting a black Louis

[Tiggnutz]

Finally getting to see Barbarian

[Havok]

Finally getting to see Barbarian

Another perfectly okay movie that people are hyping up for no reason.

Manhattan Baby is not cutting it so far...
Although...there should be a drinking game with this one. Every time the camera focuses on an eye.

[Ava]

And there is this song that plays during the scary scenes that I swear has the same first few notes as that Dolly Parton 9 to 5 song. Reminds me of it.
