Horror Weekly

This week, we’ll start with three brand-new films, all of which we liked. 2024 has brought us “The Moor,” “Arena Wars,” and “Realm of Shadows.” Next we’ll watch a couple of fun films we missed in 2018, “The Perfection” and “The Devil’s Path.” Finally, we’ll head back to Japan with 1968’s “Destroy All Monsters.”Check out all our books with one easy link: https://brianschell.com/collection/horrorguys2024 The Moor* Directed by Chris Cronin* Written by Paul Thomas* Stars Sophia La Porta, David Edward-Robertson, Elizabeth Dormer-Phillips, Bernard Hill* Run Time: 1 Hour, 58 Minutes* Trailer: Spoiler-Free Judgment ZoneThis was grim and moody and quite slow moving. It pulls you along though, and we didn’t think it ever got dull. Much of it takes place on an endless flat and foggy landscape which makes it all the more chilling when something strange pops up. And it caps off with a satisfying ending. We’d give it a thumbs up.Spoilery SynopsisWe open up on two children arguing about robbing the candy store. The little boy distracts the shopkeeper while his friend loads her bag with snacks and runs out. Her friend doesn’t come out, so she goes back inside looking for him; the shopkeeper says his dad came in and took him. We see “missing” posters of the boy as credits roll. Many missing posters, followed by headlines telling us that a man was sentenced to 25 years for the crimes. Twenty-five years later, Claire has grown up and talks to Bill, the boy’s father, about the killer’s sentence ending. They never found Danny’s body, so they couldn’t lock the man up forever; Bill wants to go up to the moors and search for Danny’s body. He complains about how the vultures from the news have hounded him for years. Claire agrees to go with him and Liz to search the peat moss moors. They have a map and they’re systematically searching the whole thing, which is going to take many days. We cut to an old interview with people originally involved with the investigation 25 years ago. People talk about the moors, where the bodies were supposedly hidden. Claire talks to Mr. Thornley, an old friend who was in charge of the original search, and mentions that Bill still goes up there to search. He knows all about the moors and shows that the moors are much, much larger than Claire realized. “How could anything be found in this?” Thornley is confused why Bill is searching in that particular area. Claire goes to see Bill, who has a psychic (dowser) there pointing to areas on a map. Bill, Claire, and Liz go back out for more searching, and Liz reiterates how dangerous it is here. It’s all very scenic in a really bleak way. Claire wears a GoPro and records the whole thing. It’s miles and miles of bleak, foggy, grassy, swamp terrain. Claire falls into a ravine and hears the others calling for her. She finds a child’s shoe down there, and the others soon catch up to her. Bill looks validated. On the way back, Liz leads them past some kind of neolithic stone monument. Claire starts to panic about being lost, but Liz says they aren’t lost, and soon come to the road where they parked. Back in town, the police aren’t much interested in the shoe, saying it doesn’t indicate anything. Back to the interview shows, they talk about the man who was arrested for the crimes. They wouldn’t show the man’s face on the news, which made him even more scary to the public. He only got one life sentence, which is 25 years, but he must have killed many children. On the next trip out to the moor, Claire has a vision, seeing Danny– No, just a dream. Bill invites Alex, his dowsing friend, over, and they argue about someone else who’s involved– Eleanor, Alex’s daughter. Bill explains to Claire that Eleanor tried to help them before, but there were… issues. Alex has never asked for any money, so he’s not a crook. He really believes. Eleanor wants to try something different. She uses the dowsing pointer to go over the map and gets nothing. Then she touches the shoe that they found, and the pointer gets really obvious about a location. It’s a long walk from the road, most of the day just to get there. Eleanor wants to go help, but Alex is not supportive of the idea. Liz packs a whole lot of safety equipment just to be sure. Alex tells Claire that this sort of thing always has a cost for Eleanor. Soon, Eleanor picks up the spirit of a little girl on the moor. Something scares her, and she runs off– right over a cliff into a ravine. She’s obviously hurt, and Alex and Claire tend to her, but Bill starts digging where she fell and finds a body. Four weeks later, Claire complains about nightly nightmares about the little girl’s face in the mud. They didn’t find Danny, but the body was enough evidence to keep the killer in jail for a long time; the little girl died three years before Danny, so the killer was at it for a while. Bill, however, is still looking for Danny. Eleanor doesn’t want to go back up there, but she talks about Thomas, who is her spiritual guardian and the one wh

Note: We’re trying something new this week; we’re including the audio podcast embedded in the newsletter as a convenience for you. If you like it, hate it, or it causes technical issues, or if it just doesn’t work, let me know: [email protected] week, we’ll start with three brand-new films, all of which we liked. 2024 has brought us “Sting,” “The First Omen,” and “Insane Like Me.” Then we’ll talk about a really weird one, “Titane” from 2024. For our bonus movies, we’ll look at “Cthulhu” (2008) and “Jesus Shows You The Way to the Highway” (2019). Check out all our books with one easy link: https://brianschell.com/collection/horrorguysPsst: for the next five days, you can get the June 2024 “Horror Bulletin Monthly” issue from Amazon for FREE. Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D6966JGSSting (2024) * Directed by Kiah Roache-Turner* Written by Kiah Roache-Turner* Stars Jermaine Fowler, Ryan Corr, Alyla Browne* Run Time: 1 Hour, 32 Minutes* Trailer: Spoiler-Free Judgment ZoneWhat’s worse than spiders? Spiders from space! In addition to the creep factor, this has a lot of dark humor and offbeat characters. The story is a little basic, but they dress it up nicely into an entertaining film.Spoilery SynopsisWe hear that an asteroid passed near to Earth yesterday, and today it’s unusually cold outside– it’s a very rare ice storm. We watch an old woman knitting– until she hears something upstairs running around. She pulls out an [antique] phonebook to call an exterminator. We see from the notes on the wall that it looks like she has Alzheimer’s. Frank the exterminator comes by but the “Bug Brothers” are parked right outside. Frank warns the confused Helga about the green snot coming out of her vents. He hears the noise right away and goes in to check it out. He finds a blood trail in the back bedroom and a “Bug Brothers” hardhat before he starts screaming. Something drags him back into the room and closes the door. Old Helga forgets all this and goes back to her knitting. She hears banging noises and calls an exterminator… Four days earlier, we see a meteor crash down into Helga’s apartment building, and a big spider hatches out of it as Credits Roll. A kid breaks in through the ventilation shaft and finds the spider; she puts the spider in a matchbox and Gunter, a mean-looking old woman, comes in. As she crawls through the ducts, we see the other people who live in the building. We see that the girl is Charlotte, and she’s Ethan the apartment manager’s stepdaughter. Gunter is her grandmother who owns the building. Her mother is Heather. Charlotte names her spider “Sting” and feeds it other bugs. Charlotte’s other grandmother is the addled Helga, who watches horror movies and knits all day. Charlotte wrote a comic book, and Ethan drew it, and it’s become quite popular. They are working on the next issue. Sometime during the night, the spider gets into the vents. Not long after, something eats Gunter’s parrot in a really gnarly way– it’s partly melted and half-eaten. Ethan calls Frank the exterminator. He’s sure it’s not rats and that whatever it was, it came through the ducts. We soon see that Charlotte’s spider is back in the jar and that it really hates mothballs. Frank and Charlotte talk about pets; he says spiders only know “Eat” and “Kill,” they can’t love. Charlotte continues feeding Sting, and Sting is getting bigger. Maria is doing things in her apartment, and we see there’s a spider in there. It jumps at her, and she loses track of it. She’s been bitten, and soon falls down, paralyzed but not dead. The spider crawls down her throat then out her abdomen. Ethan finds Maria’s dog in the ventilation shaft. He takes the dog back and finds what’s left of Maria. Charlotte goes to see Erik upstairs to buy one of his aquariums for Sting. She’s taught it to whistle, and Erik is a little creeped out. Erik is a weird biology student, and he wants the spider. Erik calls Ethan about the spider and it’s dangerous– and quite large. Ethan confronts Charlotte about the spider, and she doesn’t take it well. They fight about her real father. Erik says he’s going to turn into the spider to the Department of Health, but he actually keeps it and feeds it bigger things from his specimens. It’s soon big enough to break out of the glass aquarium. Gunter fires Ethan, her own son-in-law. Gunter says he’s weak and a quitter. That night, Gunter hears her cat in the hallway, but when she drunkenly crawls into the event, the spider gets her. The spider jumps down and bites both Heather and Ethan. Charlotte’s got earphones on and misses all of it. It drags them away before she takes the headphones off. She does notice, however, when it steals her baby brother. She quickly makes a solution of mothballs in water bottles and loads pesticide into a squirt gun. Gunter and Ethan wake up webbed and unable to speak. Charlotte checks on Helga, who is fine. Helga saw the spider, but it ran away from her– because she smells like mothballs. Charl

This week, we’ll start with three brand-new films, all of which we liked. 2024 has brought us “Abigail,” “Pandemonium,” and “Infested.” Then we’ll talk about a fairly obscure oldie, “The Deathhead Virgin” from 1974.

Episode 276 It must be Spring– there’s no new horror this week. Instead, we’ll take a look at some more oldies. We’ll start with the seventh Saw movie, “Saw 3D: The Final Chapter.” It wasn’t in 3D for us, and it wasn’t the final chapter, but that’s the way things go sometimes. We’ll stop in on Johnny Depp and Tim Burton with 2012’s “Dark Shadows” spoof. Then we’ll watch a contender for Worst Movie of All Time with “Dead Sea.” As a palette cleanser, we’ll watch the stalker movie “Cold Creek Manor.” The weekly newsletter this time around has two more oldies. Neither of these films are horror, but both star Peter Lorre, the subject of this week’s free biography: “The Man Who Knew Too Much” (1932 ) Hitchcock! “The Maltese Falcon” (1941) Bogart!

Episode 272 We have a crazy mix of old and new this time around. We’ll begin with “Night Swim” and “Lisa Frankenstein” from this year (2024). Then, we’ll go way back and watch the original “Rodan” from 1956. While we’re in the ‘50s, we’ll stop in and visit “The Bride of the Monster,” an awesome film by Ed Wood from 1958. If you think Ed Wood’s films are a hoot, you might like the reviews in our bonus newsletter this time.

Episode 241 August is always the year’s slow spot with new horror, as the film companies are saving the good stuff for October. In support of that, we’ve decided to review the all-time “bottom of the barrel” horror movies. At least the ones that are still fun to watch— there are many, many far worse films than these out there, but these have acquired “legendary” status over the decades since their release. We’ll first get a head of things with “The Brain That Wouldn’t Die” from 1962. We’ll then watch the infamous “Plan 9 from Outer Space” from 1957. We’ll then hide from 1959’s “The Killer Shrews” and clap for “Manos: The Hand of Fate” from 1966. For our newsletter-exclusive bonus films this week, we’ll also watch: “The Ape” (1940) - Boris Karloff monkeys around. “Basket Case” (1982) - What’s in that basket?

Episode 240 We’ll start with a ridiculous Troma film from 1986, “Blood Hook” (Ouch!). We’ll then watch a film made right here in the town where we reside, “Half Dead Fred” which just released this year. After that terrifying experience, we’ll take a trip to the hospital and end in “The Void” from 2016. To relax after, we’ll stop in and have some fun at “Willy’s Wonderland” (2021).

Episode 237: Serial Killer Week We’ve got five movies this week: We’ll start with the 1986 film, “Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer,” then move on to 1995’s “Se7en.” Then we’ll watch a fictionalized version of the real-life “Zodiac” and go insane with “The Collector” and “I Saw the Devil.” Crazy stuff! On our newsletter site, horrorbulletin.com we discuss all the above, PLUS: “Hollywood in the Atomic Age - Monsters! Martians! Mad Scientists!” (2021) Check out all our books with one easy link: https://brianschell.com/collection/horrorguys Here. We. Go!
