My Thoughts: This is the second appearance of Art the Clown... him basically getting his own movie here. The story line is really good and the effects are decent. Of course, much like All Hallow's Eve, the gore is beyond excessive. I myself don't mind excessive gore but think the warning should be there for those who do. This movie proved that Art the Clown is anything but human. Which makes me want to know more about him. Makes me wonder if there is any back story on him in Terrifier 2. But alas I don't have that one. Rating:

Stars:Mike Giannelli as Art the clown Katie Maguire as Sarah Catherine Callahan as Caroline Marie Maser Kayla Lian as Casey Plot:Beautiful, unsuspecting Sarah is looking forward to a quiet Halloween night at home with the two young teens she's babysitting. Then, she discovers an unmarked old VHS videotape in one of the kid's bags of candy. On the tape: a series of wildly outlandish tales of murder, torture and unearthly mayhem, all somehow linked to a diabolical clown-from-hell. As each tale ratchets up the terror, bizarre phenomena begin to occur in the house, as Sarah discovers that the grimacing, white-faced clown on the video may be saving his most horrific All Hallows' Eve treat... just for her. Extras:- Scene Access
- Closed Captioned
My Thoughts: This is of course the very first appearance of Art the Clown. I found this one not only to be on the weird side of things, but also to be on the gruesome side of things as well. Not that this is a bad thing, but things were happening so fast and in the dark so much that I was having a bit of a hard time keeping up. Though I did enjoy and can see myself watching again.

| | Child of Satan (2017/)

Stars:Plot:After an accident during her baby shower, Allison, a dedicated nurse, is rushed to the hospital. After the birth of her son, strange events emerge: vivid dreams and unexplained killings. Extras: My Thoughts: Ok for a low budget horror film, but not one I see myself watching often. It is one of those that leaves the kills to the imagination. It makes it so you know what happens but don't show it, so it doesn't have to have an effects budget. Not that it is a bad thing, just a bit weak in this day and age of horror. I just found the whole thing on the slow side. Rating:

My Thoughts: Just finished this one... and I must say.. enjoyed it quite a bit. It has a good story line and likable characters... even if they did make the sister-in-law a little on the weird side. This film easily kept my attention through-out. It shows that there is good and evil in everyone. I also liked how they made it a completely seperate story compared to the first one... and not some type of continuation of the same family or house or what have you. The movie is well worth the time put in to watch it. Recommended. Rating:

My Thoughts: I enjoyed this one quite a bit. I have heard both good and bad about this movie... and thankfully I have to agree with those that liked it. Sure some of the stuff I seen in many ghost stories... but there was also stuff I seen in this movie for the very first time. There was a couple things that did bother me about the story. But over all I really enjoyed this one. The actor playing the ill son looked very familiar to me... but I just couldn't place where I knew him from... so after the movie I checked his filmography. Turns out I knew him from 2 different shows. He played Beaver on Veronica Mars and he also played Bart Allen (The Flash) on a couple episodes of Smallville. I would recommend this movie to anyone that enjoys ghost stories. Rating:

There are six other women running scared in the woods, each with a masked assassin assigned to protect them and kill everyone else. Kayla races to save herself and as many women as she can, but when they start to turn on each other, her killer instinct is unleashed as she does whatever it takes to survive. Extras: My Thoughts: This is one of the Shudder Original films I got my hands on. These can be hit or miss but I usually tend to like them as I did with this one. This one has a bit of gore in it though the effects are not the greatest I am guessing the funds wasn't there. I liked the story. It kept my interest till the end. Rating:

My Thoughts: Seems I watched this one once before and didn't get much out of it. Guess that is what I get for watching it before the earlier films. I loved it this time I watched it! Knowing all about the psychic and her team before going back to her childhood home really helped. Who would have thought! LOL Now I am excited to get my hands on and watch Insidious: The Red Door.

My Thoughts: I was going to stop after the first two. Now I am glad I didn't as this one brought a whole new interest into the series for me. It seems the characters I really didn't care about was the Lambert Family from the first two movies. Taking them out of the films helped me enjoy them so much more. I really liked the young girl and her father in this one. Rating:

My Thoughts: I am sure it is partially nostalgia for me... but this is one of my favorite vampire films. It is one I have seen countless times...one that I never tire of. This movie is the first thing I ever seen Kiefer Sutherland in... and I think he did an awesome job in it. I also think Jason Patric did a great job as Michael. and I definitely couldn't help but to enjoy the Old Fart (Grandpa)... I just get such a kick out of him and all the stuffed animals he gave to Sam. Definitely one I would highly recommend to any horror fan... especially vampire fans. Though I do believe most all horror fans probably seen this one by now! Rating:
