Tonight’s Friday Slasher film: Chopping Mall.

Robots killing kids trapped in a mall feels relevant today.

A classic from the Roger Corman factory with a bevy of familiar faces from the 80s and 70s.

He was the biggest hypocrite of all...he used preservatives. Remembering Farmer Vincent, a.k.a. Rory Calhoun (1922-99), the American film / television actor and star of Motel Hell (1980), born Francis Timothy McCown in L.A. on this day.

Punctuated, like its immediate predecessor, by slasher-era kills and macabre jokes in the Hitchcock tradition, wittily directed and starred in the long underrated , released in the U.S. by Universal Pictures

2/2

I used to be in to all those 80's slasher movies, but after so many, I kind of got over them. Then American Horror Story came out with their 80s slasher season. I watched the first episode, thought "Meh" and never watched again...until now.
Turns out I was missing out. I should have known would throw in some crazy twist and weird stuff.

"Why don't we just wait here for a little while...see what happens..." On this day in 1982, in the summer of E.T. and simultaneously with Blade Runner, Universal Pictures released John Carpenter's bleak, brilliant The Thing, a commercial failure that eventually became revered as Hollywood's greatest modern monster movie.

From my vintage collection: Evil Dead 2 video store standee (1988). ⚡️💞 This is from a Video Ezy store in Australia, hence the yellow logo. 😉 I remember watching it for the first time with a buddy back in the early 90s. It was the heavily censored version, but it was still jaw-dropping. We had seen nothing like it. 😎

Bloody Birthday

Oh how I love this classic kids horror. This and The Children were so much fun watching on Saturdays hosted by commander USA.

Anyway. It starts Billy Jacoby (who was in everything as a kid but was fantastic in Just One of the Guys) as the lead kid killer and a debut roll from comedienne July Brown a spied on older sister stripping for boys.

No, you cannot remake this movie today or even come close to it. 80s slasher trash.

In the spirit of Spring Break, having a day off, and keeping it , I'm watching the Spring Break-themed (1989), directed by Umberto Lenzi (direction so attributed to James Justice) and featuring horror staple actor John Saxon. Who's with me?

Skipping the Alamo tonight in favor of watching "In Search of Darkness III" at home tonight. If you're not familiar with the "In Search of Darkness" films (and their cousins like "In Search of Tomorrow"), they are the DEFINITIVE and EXHAUSTIVE documentaries about '80s horror films.

Each crowdfunded installment is between 3 and 4 hours long, and a treat to binge. They're a GREAT way to build your to-watch list.

Satisfying to have the whole trilogy on Bluray - and my name in the credits of 2&3 :maxheadroom:

Finishing a Scream marathon today. 80s and 90s horror nostalgia is my jam! What's your favorite horror movie from that era?

Been rewatching this old 80s tv show. It's kind of cheesy but fun. The first episode is pretty lame but gets better as it progresses later in the season. I just started season 2.
