Bad Ben has been pretty crap so far. But I applaud the guy that made this film because it's all just him. That's about it. Still crapolla.

Just signed up for the Shudder subscription, so I should be getting better options now.

Starting my morning with Soul's Ark (1999). Found a VHS rip with terrible audio quality (at times) via YouTube. Stars Colin Baker (Sixth Doctor from Doctor Who) and Carole Ann Ford (who played Susan Foreman, the Doctor's grand-daughter in the first ten stories).

Should be fun.

Dead Still (2014) was one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life. Seriously considering stopping the Challenge and watching movies due to it.

Only half joking. :P

It may have taken 20 years since I first saw Howling: New Moon Rising, but I am beginning to think Wolf House was bad enough to top it for worst thing I've seen, let alone worst werewolf movie.

Sounds like we've got a very special Challenge this year :P

Some 1992 experimental horror flick called Lost Prophet is next up.

Hopefully it's not too nonsensical.

Just saw Criminally Insane 2. Since it uses so much footage from the first movie, can I count that one for this month to?

1970s british horror is pretty cool. Blood on Satan's Claw was way better than I thought it would be. I love when the challenge brings me gems

Watched eight movies today, and since A Cure for Wellness is so long, I'll start it tonight and finish it tomorrow after work. I rarely do that, but I want to make the movie more digestible to my schedule.

The Directors are always promoting that shit each year at Scarefest and also overcharging people for used copies of their first film Death Tunnel.

Oh God, they did Death Tunnel? I saw that, and despite the interesting sounding premise, thought it was god-awful also.

Having both Dead Still and Death Tunnel under your belt shows the true signs of a great director. :P
