Fright Night



Fright Night - in which a teenage boy is the only one who has the good sense to identify and fear the new vampire in town, and his friends make fun of him. So, Charlie has this nice girlfriend named Amy, and they are hanging out when Charlie glances out the window and sees his new, handsome neighbor biting the beautiful prostitute he had invited over. He doesn't really freak out until the next day, when he see's the vampire's goul-servant taking out the body the next day. Charlie watches a lot of horror movies, so he's got some info, but his friend, Evil Ed, has the real down low, so he goes to him for advice. Evil Ed makes fun of Charlie, but gives him some solid info. However, by the time Charlie gets home - his mom has invited the VAMPIRE, Jerry, inside. Jerry threatens Charlie and his mom, and Charlie decides to get real, and he hunts down his local horror movie host, Peter Vincent, and tries to enlist his help. Peter Vincent does not believe Charlie, of course, because no one believes in vampires anymore, except that town in Africa that's hunting them, en mass. However, Charlie is driving Amy and Evil insane, so they offer to pay Peter Vincent to investigate Jerry the Vampire, and he agrees. Of course, Jerry is really a vampire, and Peter Vincent accidentally figures it out with a mirror, and everyone panicks, but that tips Jerry off, and so he kidnaps Amy from a dance club, with Charlie in hot pursuit. Evil Ed gets bitten and changed, and he goes after Charlie, and poor Charlie has to kill his friend and its disgusting. So, Jerry has Amy locked away, and he definitely fingers her, and Charlie and Peter break in and fight Jerry for Amy. Jerry turns into a bat, and Amy has grown long hair with magic. They defeat Jerry and save Amy, and the neighborhood is safe!

Death Wish

Death Wish (1974) - in which the justice system fails a man who lost his family, and he goes off the rails in finding personal justice. I mean vengeance. Charles Bronson plays Paul Kersey, a husband and father and architect, who has a nice NYC life. One day, near the beginning of the movie, Paul's wife is murdered and his daughter is raped into a catatonic state, from which she will not likely recover. Sexist. Anyways, Paul is destroyed, so his boss sends him out to New Mexico, or another lawless state, for a 3 month long project. Paul does some recovering while he is out there, and is befriended by his big money client, with a big hat and big guns. Upon arriving back in NYC, Paul is disheartened to find his daughter in terrible condition, and his son-in-law coping poorly. There have also been no arrests in his wife's murder, as the police are very busy with a crime spree related to gang violence. Paul is a really sympathetic guy, and his pain is visible, and very real. So,...

Event Horizon

Event Horizon - in which sci fi space body horror gets very fucking real, and totally gross. First, Lawrence Fishburne is a space captain named Miller, and his first mate is Joely Richardson, and she rocks. Her accent is real. A bunch of space sailors are escorting science genius Sam Neill to the wreckage of a space ship. It wasn't just a space ship, it was a massive black hole generating machine, and it recently re-emerged around Neptune, and now its just orbiting, being spooky af. To give all the details, Sam Neill, AKA Dr. Weir, is having creepy dreams about his dead wife in his cryo/gravi-sleep pod before they even get to the abandoned wreck. Oh, its called the Event Horizon. So, once the crew rolls up on Event Horizon they get nervous, because its creepy, and a few people go out to investigate the empty ship. Miller orders Dr. Weir to stay aboard their vessel, and he doesn't do a good job of listening. As soon as the crew splits up, one young guy gets sucked into the g...

Raw

Raw - in which France has the grossest veterinary school imaginable, and vegetarianism is the thinking woman's solution to the broken Greek system. Some skinny girl goes to the same veterinary school her older sister is currently attending, and her bitch sister doesn't even help her move in to the dorm she is sharing with a guy. Albeit a gay guy, but I'm assuming not all of the men in this coed dorm are gay. The first night the hazing begins, the freshmen are herded out of their rooms by threat of violence, and all of their mattresses are thrown onto the front lawn. It takes a surreal turn into gross-cinema discomfort at the rave they are all taken to and our tiny protagonist runs into her mean sister and is peer pressured into taking some club drugs. Things are just starting to get weird. Some kind of creepy things are happening, but it mostly just reminds me of the lonely horror of my college experience, except I wasn't peer pressured into eating a rabbit kidney, ...
