🎥 The New York Ripper | Lucio Fulci | 1982

The grimy, sleaze ridden New York of the early 80s is the perfect setting for the gore fest that takes place in The New York Ripper.

One of Fulci’s most notorious films, it has a real world grounding compared to the supernatural elements of his other work

The Long Goodbye is my favourite Altman and probably Goulds best performance too.

A sense of cool pervades the entire picture. It’s perfectly paced and the performances are exceptional.

🎥 Restless Natives (1985)

A real slice of Scottish life in 1985. The rise of national spirit and a movement of self determination, all told through the guise of a couple of wee guys robbing tourists on buses.

Superb soundtrack from Big Country and some great locations.

Charming and funny 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

It’s time for the daftest in the entire series, Jason X or Jason in SPACE.

While they were trying to get Freddy vs Jason into production they wanted another Jason film to remind everyone of the pull of the character.

Ridiculous fun and uber 90s #JasonX #Horror #Slasher #Nowwatching

We’re at the final entry of the original set of Friday the 13th films, Jason Goes to Hell.

I always remember the cover of the Jason mask with the snake through the eyes from the video shop.

It’s certainly an interesting one 🤣

My Friday the 13th rewatch is continuing as I’m watching part VII tonight - The New Blood.

We’re now at the “Jason as the main attraction” part of the series and it’s really in its element.

The kills are the focus and it have a fun self referential feel to them.

This afternoon it’s Danny Boyle’s horror from 2002, 28 Days Later.

People tend to label it as a zombie film but for me zombie is an undead ghoul. What we’re dealing with her is infected.

Not watched in a while so keen to see how it has aged.

This afternoon it’s the second in the series, Friday the 13th Part 2 🪓

The slasher that evolved its story telling lore into an iconic series.

Jason hasn’t even got the hockey mask yet 🏒

This evening it’s John Carpenters masterpiece from 1982, The Thing.

Truly one of the greatest atmospheric sci fi films of all time.

The performances are matched by the fantastic direction, editing and score.

#NowWatching Burial Ground or Nights of Terror or The Zombie Dead, a film with many names.

The 1981 Bianchi horror rattles along at break neck speed. The plot isn’t nearly as important as the gruesome death scenes 💀

Rather silly but fun with a great synthy main theme.

And creepy mini Argento 😱

Netflix is testing what they call 'Mobile' versions of classic films such as 'Stalker' and 'The Godfather' for the TikTok generation.

The films are cut to portrait format to fit on mobile devices and allow audiences to swipe away scenes they find too long or boring.
