Halloween Part 2 *the night, not the movie*

All right folks! Here is the last 60 Days of Horror report for the year! It was awesome, as always, this year. I didn't get to watch near as many flicks as I wanted to (or did last year), but, hey, it's been busy times in the land of Scott.

So here are the reviews of the last flicks that I watched. I also missed a few and don't see reviews for them here or on my Facebook page, so I'll do them now.

Maniac- I watched this one on about the 22nd. It's a great little indy psychological thriller about Frank, a maniquin store owner that is trying to deal with mom issues. His issues boil down to the truth that his mother was a filthy whore who performed yucky things in front of him as a child and now he butchers women to try and reconcile with her. It sounds crazy because it is. Elijah Wood stars as Frank, whose eyes nearly the entire movie is shot through in first person. That's right, Wood turns in a powerful, dark performance in a film where he is rarely on camera. There are only a few moments when he is shown: In mirrors and window reflections mostly, but there are a few times when the camera leaves his vision that could very well be interpreted as out of body experiences. It's a cool flick, I recommend it almost solely because Wood is pretty much my favorite actor right now.

VHS- Another offering (one of the first, actually) from the team that has brought us the mind-bender A Horrible Way to Die and the perfectly crafted You're Next. This film is a nonlinear, cobbled amalgamation of images that all seem to be randomly taped on a VHS tape. It's as if people have used the tape in tons of different situations, constantly accidentally (or intentionally) taping over bits of stuff that was already on the tape. The common thread is that the situations recorded always end badly. The real genius of this flick is how realistic most of the episodes (each one was conceived and produced by different folks) are. It really seems like the filmmakers just went into an alternate reality and killed versions of themselves.

#63 Curse of Chucky- This is the latest in the 20 year old Child's Play franchise. In it, they have evolved with the times and present a much less straightforward story about Chucky enacting revenge on a family that wronged him in life. There are new revelations that continue to surprise and delight me.  I've rarely seen tricks like this used in the horror genre. Well played, child.

#64 Garfield's Halloween Special- I love it. It's awesome. Another pure dose of Halloween good vibes as we go trick or treating with the big cat and his dim-witted side kick of a mutt. You just know that some ghost pirates are going to show up at some point!

Okay! That's it! See you all right back here next year (hopefully)!
