#ChanningTatum gets to hang out in #mcdonalds #toysrus and with #kirstendunst . Sounds like a good time, apart from the 40 odd years in prison.

Day 30 of #31nightsofhorror was #nosferatu (2024). Robert Eggers masterful remake doesn't put a foot wrong. No notes.

#31DaysOfHorror day 29 was #thehome (2025) . Fairly mediocre horror mystery but the insane finale makes up for many of its faults.

#shelbyoaks is up for day 28 of #31DaysOfHorror . Starts off as a found footage mockumentary before morphing an occult thriller. More an homage to better films than anything else.

#31DaysOfHorror day 27 and #theritual (2025). Not the best film with this name but a serviceable exorcism thriller starring Al Pacino and Dan Stevens

Day 27 of #31DaysOfHorror and As Above So Below (2014). Suffers from many of the usual found footage annoyances but has a cool setting and some Indiana Jones puzzle solving mixed into the horror.

#31DaysOfHorror day 26 is #annabellecomeshome (2019). Lighter entry to the franchise this time round and a fun end to the adventures of the spooky doll. F that girl who lets Annabelle out though.

#31DaysOfHorror day 25 and #annabellecreation (2017) and the prequel is a big step up for the first film. Some of the best scares of any films in The Conjuring franchise.

#31DaysOfHorror day 23 and #Annabelle (2014) is the only Conjuring adjacent movie I hadn't seen. Turns out I wasn't missing much, although it has a couple of decent moments.

Day 22 of #31DaysOfHorror and 2025 remake #thehandthatrocksthecradle . Starts off like it might have twist on the original but ends up being a retread with less personality.

Day 20 of #31DaysOfHorror day 20 was Dark Water (2005). Part of the remake every Japanese horror craze of the 2000s, although more of mystery than anything else. A little dull but great cast.

#31DaysOfHorror day 19 and 30 Days of Night (2007) has vampires attack an Alaskan town in the dead of dark winter. Not really scary enough, and a little too silly, to get away with being so po-faced, but certainly has teeth.

#31DaysOfHorror day 18 and Natty Knocks (2023). Part slasher, part adult version of a kids adventure movie but ultimately a whole lot of nothing, despite the presence of a couple of horror icons

Day 17 of #31DaysOfHorror and #DakotaFanning stars in (mostly) one person horror #viscious . Has a fairly interesting setup but relies on tired tropes for scares and drags on come the end.
