The Woman King. I actually like it, but I only watched it because I was on a plane and it was the only movie I had downloaded on my phone.
What's the last movie you've seen?

Just a dreamer who dreams of better days.
Beginning the October section of my Halloween horror movie marathon after my most recent post highlighted the things I fit into a bit of September. I had intended to do it weekly but got a bit sidetracked.
October 1
I started off with director Ryan Coogler's highly acclaimed movie Sinners which released earlier this year. I almost watched it in September originally since I saw online that there was some contention over whether it was "horror" enough since it's kind of a bunch of genres mixed together. I'm glad I waited and started off the month with this though because I really enjoyed it. I'd say it had sufficient enough horror elements to fit the spooky month vibe.
Following up one Southern vampire film with another, I also did my yearly viewing of director Kathryn Bigelow's 1987 movie Near Dark.
October 2
I started with my yearly viewing of director James Whale's 1932 movie The Old Dark House.
I followed it up with something I hadn't seen before, director Robert Siodmak's 1946 movie The Spiral Staircase. I hadn't heard of it up until the past few weeks while doing research into new things to check out. I liked it.
October 3
The regularly scheduled monthly installment of The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs was on the Shudder streaming service and the theme was Survival Night. Two movies I'd never heard of before, so that was cool.
First up was director Anthony Waller's 1995 movie Mute Witness. Wild coincidence that I had just watched The Spiral Staircase the night before because that movie and Mute Witness both feature non-speaking female protagonists. I thought this was pretty fun.
The second movie was director Andrew Davis's 1983 movie The Final Terror. This one was okay, I didn't hate it but it wasn't altogether a remarkable or particularly memorable movie. Part of the motivation for showing it was that the guest, C. Robert Cargill, really likes it for the cinematography. I did appreciate the nature shown throughout.
October 4
As it was Saturday, I kept holy the sabbath by revisiting director Mario Bava's 1963 anthology movie Black Sabbath.
I followed it with another revisit of director Lucio Fulci's 1981 movie The Beyond.
October 5
The dead walked the Earth in this international double feature from the 70s.
First up was a revisit of director Jorge Grau's 1974 movie Let Sleeping Corpses Lie (also known as The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue).
I followed it with a revisit of director Amando de Ossorio's 1972 movie Tombs of the Blind Dead.
October 6
In honor of the full Hunter's Moon, which also happened to be a supermoon, the werewolves were let loose.
Yearly viewing of director John Landis's 1981 movie An American Werewolf in London.
Followed by the yearly viewing of director Joe Dante's 1981 movie The Howling.
It always just feels appropriate to watch those two together each year since they're some of the best werewolf movies and both came out in 1981.
October 7
The power of Christ compelled me to do my yearly viewing of director William Friedkin's 1973 movie The Exorcist.
Of course, I can't watch that without following it up with the great sequel directed by The Exorcist author William Peter Blatty: The Exorcist III, released in the year 1990.
October 8
Exorcisms are rather taxing so this called for a nice Summer camp getaway.
Yearly viewing of director Sean S. Cunningham's 1980 movie Friday the 13th.
Followed by the yearly viewing of director Steve Miner's 1981 movie Friday the 13th Part 2.
October 9
Yearly viewing of director Steve Miner's 1982 movie Friday the 13th Part III: 3D.
Yearly viewing of director Joseph Zito's 1984 movie Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter.
October 10
Yearly viewing of director Danny Steinmann's 1985 movie Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning.
Yearly viewing of director Tom McLoughlin's 1986 movie Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives.
October 11
Bringing us to tonight's viewing, I felt like going for a fun 80s night.
First up, I wanted something to "Thrill Me!", so I chose to do my yearly viewing of director Fred Dekker's 1986 movie Night of the Creeps.
Followed it up the yearly viewing of director Chuck Russel's 1988 version of The Blob.
I'll list out the upcoming week's viewings (12th-19th) next time.

Just a dreamer who dreams of better days.
Back again to report the past week's viewings from my month-long horror movie marathon from where I left off last time.
October 12
Yearly viewings of a couple movies directed by John Carpenter: Prince of Darkness, released in 1987, and In the Mouth of Madness which was released in 1994.
October 13
Revisited director Quentin Tarantino's 1996 movie From Dusk Till Dawn.
Followed by my first time watching the 1995 movie Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight from director Ernest Dickerson. Had heard about it in the past couple years and finally got around to checking it out. I liked it. Fun movie, especially with Billy Zane's performance.
October 14
Decided to do a double feature of two well-regarded movies I'd never seen before.
First I watched the 1962 movie Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? from director Robert Aldrich. It's a pretty long movie at 2 hours and 14 minutes, so it's probably not something I'd add to a future marathon rotation, but I quite liked this one. Bette Davis and Joan Crawford were both fantastic in their roles, the plot is fun and, while it's got a long runtime, it's engaging and doesn't feel like it drags.
I followed this by checking out the 1955 movie The Night of the Hunter from director Charles Laughton. This one was good too. The Harry Powell character played by Robert Mitchum is really entertaining and well acted and I liked the overall story. I could see the influence the Powell character had on Max Cady from Cape Fear. There is quite a strong current of religiosity running throughout which, as an agnostic who left organized religion and feels a bit uncomfortable when people are overzealous, it kind of takes away a bit of my ability to really enjoy the movie to a full extent. There was also a decision toward the end with how everything resolved that kind of bugs me, even though I understand what they were going for with it. Regadless of those two things, it's a strong film and I can see why it's well-regarded and I'm glad I checked it out.
October 15
Japanese double feature night.
Started with the yearly viewing of director Nobuhiko Obayashi's 1977 movie House.
Followed it up by checking out director Nobuo Nakagawa's 1960 movie Jigoku for the first time. I quite liked it for the most part. Overall engaging plot, though I do have a few little nitpicks. The scenes of Hell are neat. However, the movie ends in an odd, ambiguous and kind of unsatisfactory way. I don't think the ending ruins the rest of it though. It's good and I'm glad I checked it out.
October 16
As we were now essentially halfway to Halloween, I wanted to watch a particular Universal classic featuring Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff. Then I figured, hey, follow that with something featuring another classic horror duo in Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing.
I started with my yearly viewing of director Edgar G. Ulmer's 1934 classic The Black Cat.
I followed it up with my first time watching director Eugenio Martin's 1972 movie Horror Express. I saw someone describe it as Murder on the Orient Express combined with The Thing and yeah. I really enjoyed it and think I'll probably try to make time to watch it in the Winter in the years to come.
October 17
Double feature of a couple of haunted house movies I'd never seen before.
I started with director Dan Curtis's 1976 movie Burnt Offerings. I enjoyed this one for the most part. There were a couple things that bugged me, but eh, they don't ruin it. You can see how the story inspired Stephen King's The Shining. Fun concept.
I followed it up with director Lewis Allen's 1944 movie The Uninvited. Saw a few people mention it when I was doing research. I didn't really vibe with it as much as others seem to. It's not bad, but eh, not much to say about it.
October 18
Yearly double feature of a couple vampire classics from the 80s, director Joel Schumacher's 1987 movie The Lost Boys and director Tom Holland's 1985 movie Fright Night.
October 19
1, 2, Freddy's coming for you...
Yearly double feature of director Wes Craven's 1984 movie A Nightmare on Elm Street and director Chuck Russell's 1987 movie A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.

(it's been years since I've watched either)

Just a dreamer who dreams of better days.
The month-long horror movie marathon keeps chugging along as we are about to reach our destination.
I had intended to post back on Sunday or Monday, but the days got ahead of me and I didn't get around to it.
October 20
I decided to revisit the 2019 movie Haunt from directors Scott Beck and Bryan Woods.
I followed it up with my yearly viewing of the original 1959 version of House on Haunted Hill that was directed by William Castle, starring Vincent Price.
October 21
Had an alien invasion-themed double feature.
Yearly viewings of director Stephen Chiodo's 1988 movie Killer Klowns from Outer Space and director Philip Kaufman's 1978 remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
October 22
Witchy Wednesday double feature.
Yearly double feature of director Dario Argento's original 1977 movie Suspiria and his 1980 movie Inferno.
October 23
Yearly viewings of director Sam Raimi's 1981 original The Evil Dead and his 1987 follow-up Evil Dead II.
October 24
Though they usually do one episode on the first Friday of each month, The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs on the Shudder streaming service had a Halloween special called Joe Bob's Splatterween. They showed two movies as usual and also featured performances from the band Gwar.
The first movie they showed, which I hadn't seen before, was director Eli Craig's movie Clown in a Cornfield which released in May of this year and is an adaptation of the 2020 novel by author Adam Cesare. I wasn't aware of the books and thus don't know how it compares, but I thought it was entertaining enough.
The second movie was director Steve Latshaw's 1995 movie Jack-O. Very low-budget fare. One of those "so bad it's good" sort of movies, allegedly anyway, with sometimes humorously bad acting and line deliveries. Even the The Last Drive-In setting didn't really help with this one, I just wasn't into it unfortunately. But hey, that's how it goes sometimes.
October 25
Yearly double feature of director Don Coscarelli's 1979 movie Phantasm and his 1988 sequel Phantasm II.
October 26
Went out into country for this double feature.
Yearly viewing of director Rob Zombie's 2003 movie House of 1000 Corpses, followed by director Frank De Felitta's 1981 movie Dark Night of the Scarecrow.
October 27
Didn't notice this until compiling the post, but both of this night's movies were directed by Terence Fisher.
After seeing it for the first time a few years ago, I decided to revisit his 1961 movie Curse of the Werewolf.
Followed it with my yearly viewing of the 1959 Hammer Studios version of The Mummy.
October 28
Vengeful spirit double feature.
Yearly viewings of director Bernard Rose's 1992 movie adaptation of Clive Barker's story Candyman and director John Carpenter's original 1980 version of The Fog.
October 29
Sometimes, dead is better.
Yearly viewings of director Stuart Gordon's 1985 adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's Re-Animator and director Mary Lambert's original 1989 adaptation of Stephen King's novel Pet Sematary.
---
Next post will be the final one for the marathon, where I'll post tonight's, tomorrow's, then Saturday and Sunday's viewings since I always include the 1st and 2nd of November as a way to let the vibes linger just a couple more days and as a loose acknowledgement of the Day of the Dead.
