‘Burn, Witch, Burn!’ (1962): A classic witchcraft shocker you must see!
Superlative British shocker: expertly directed, beautifully constructed, and scintillatingly shot.
‘Play Dead’ (1982): Cute dog & rich old dame + black magic = death
Greta, you’re no Cujo. But you’re pretty cute. It’s the best you can do when your film is produced by…a construction company?
‘The Ghost and Mr. Chicken’ (1965): Perfect for Halloween, Don Knotts comedy gets better with age
“Atta boy, Luther!”
‘Dark Angel’ (1990): Dark buddy-coppery rings in new decade
I come in peace. And you go in pieces, assh*le.
‘The Net’ (1995): Sandra Bullock finds danger & intrigue online
Her driver’s license. Her credit cards. Her bank accounts. Her identity. DELETED.
‘The Terminal Man’ (1974): Bleak foreshadowing of today’s cold, tech-obsessed world
Cold, impersonal, distant Frankenstein re-imagining―and a fairly perverse jab at its horror/suspense genre conventions.
‘Targets’ (1968): Nightmarish, disturbing take on guns & violence
“What you hunting this time?” “Going to shoot some pigs.”
‘Kansas City Bomber’ (1972): Misunderstood action-drama an effective, evocative melodrama
Grimy, relentlessly downbeat actioner/drama, incisive and intriguingly hazy—and far better than its rep indicates—with Raquel Welch’s first really accomplished performance.
‘Corky’ (1972): A dour nightmare about an irredeemable loser
One long, downbeat descent into the void.
‘The Loved One’ (1965): Uneven Hollywood satire still has plenty of yoks
What better way to celebrate the most macabre month of the year than to watch a grotesque comedy about Hollywood and the funeral business (guess which one is worse…)?
