No. Have you? Is it any good?
I just watched the trailer. It looks fun. Wonder if that music from trailer is in it. Also looks like Death from Supernatural is one of the serial killers. I'm sold right there.

Started up Kansen, or Infection, a Japanese film from 2004. I remember this being quite stellar when I saw it once before, so really hoping that it holds up.

I just looked this up. It looks like a comedy version of Killers Anonymous. Wonder if it was one of those things where the same idea was used by two different companies.

Always loved the Bishop of Battle segment. A lot of fun.

So I looked through my list, and I've only seen six films from the 1990's so far this month. I should be watching a couple more, but that surprised me.

Finished Halloween Kills and was I the only one that felt like I was watching a reskinned version of Hatchet 2 and 3 combined? You got a group of people forming a hunting party and then you have Victor going back to his home where everything started. It's the same shit just with Michael Myers.

Which were already things repurposed from earlier Halloween movies that predate Hatchet 2 and 3.

Plus those Hatchet movies aren't really movies that linger in my thoughts, so they never came to mind at all (especially 3, I have no actual memory of what the hell happened in 3) lol.

I know they were done before, but given the brutality of Michael Myers now and the added gore made me think of Hatchet for some reason.

That's fair. HIs brutality has definitely gone up steadily since Zombie's version.

In the mood for original Dawn of the Dead, and the US theatrical cut too lol. I'm not sure when the last time I've watched this version was...must've been pre-2000.

I saw that some years back. I remember it being a reasonably fun movie.
