31 Days Of Horror: HALLOWEEN

It's early, but I'm gonna watch it tonight because it is: HALLOWEEN
This movie is the quintessential horror movie, in my opinion. A child kills his sister and is locked away in an asylum, only to grow up strong and very powerful. Almost unstoppable is what most people would say. Michael Myers returns to Haddonfield to spread fear in this little town and does just that. A long time favorite of mine as well as my mother's and I always watch the original on Halloween. Thanks for following the 31 Days of Horror and if you suggested any movies that didn't get reviewed for any reason, there's always next October :)

31 Days Of Horror: Day 30

Driving through the backwoods of Texas, five youths pick up a traumatized hitchhiker, who shoots herself in their van. Shaken by the suicide, the group seeks help from the locals, but their situation becomes even more surreal when they knock on the door of a remote homestead. It's quickly apparent the residents are a family of inbred psychopaths, and the unlucky youths suddenly find themselves running for their lives. In hot pursuit is a disfigured, chainsaw-wielding cannibal known as Leatherface.

31 Days Of Horror: Day 29

A group of young adults set up tent near the abandoned summer camp where a series of gruesome murders are said to have taken place back in 1980. The perpetrator was a grieving mother, driven insane by the drowning of her child, Jason, whom she believed was neglected by the camp counselors. As legend has it, the last survivor of the attacks beheaded the woman. But then Jason came back, and now he is a vengeful and inexorable killer, wielding crossbows, swords, axes and other sharp instruments. The legend proves horribly true, as these campers quickly discover. Six months later, the brother of one of those campers distributes posters of his missing sister. The police believe she took off with her boyfriend; but he knows better. The brother crosses paths with an uptight young rich guy who is having his girlfriend and friends over at his parents' cabin. The brother ends up at the cabin himself just before his sister's attacker sets upon them all.

31 Days Of Horror: Day 28

It's not hard to believe that I'm a long time Elm St fan. I grew up lying to friends about watching the movies cause I was afraid of the boogieman and they wouldn't understand. Freddy scared me because he could get me in my dreams and most kids cannot control their dreams. The psychosis of a child if off in the slightest bit can cause them to act out at school, at home or anywhere for that matter. Freddy is a child predator that was burned alive by the parents of the children he preyed upon. Most folks nowadays flip out when you mention child predators or pedophiles and curse the very ground that you walk on when you do talk about them. Freddy could reach you in your dreams and he would either toy with you until he killed you or he would use you to get more of "his children". The series was awesome and the remake was good, I believe the digital effect of Freddy coming out of the wall was the only thing from the remake that I would change. Love the films and will always be a Kruger fan!
