The Cabin In The Woods

September the 18th folks write it down, memorize it, take a picture. Whatever!

The Cabin in the woods will soon be yours to own or rent and i'm going to tell you now it's a monstrous good time.  I went to the theaters when this movie came out and i was never bored.

It's not your typical horror movie! It's like a parody of the cliche characters with a good story and concept.  There's a good balance to it and during the middle the action really get's going and so many monstrous events take place.

I urge everyone to at least rent the movie and watch it.  You will not be disappointed.

The Loved Ones: Australia Horror

I came across this Australian gem of a movie at redbox and let me just say it was awesome.

The monstrous daughter/father duo known as Lola and Daddy made crazy look even crazier and i enjoyed every moment of it.  Let me give you a real brief summary of the movie:

When Brent turns down his classmate Lola's invitation to the prom, she concocts a wildly violent plan for revenge.
 

Let me just say there was a lot of violence and torture in this movie and i think it deserves a watch.

The Descent 2

Now available on Netflix "The Descent 2."  I enjoyed this gem of a movie the first time it was released a couple of years ago.  Now part two is on Netflix for all to watch yay!

In The first Movie we know that five girls go into a cave for a cave exploration and upon their descent they encounter Monstrous-monsters who have adapted to the dark and feed of anything that they come in contact with.  At the end of the Movie there is only one survivor.

Now part two:

Refusing to believe her story about cave-dwelling monsters, the sole survivor of a spelunking exploration gone horribly wrong is forced to follow the authorities back into the caves where something awaits.
 

If you've never seen either movie, I encourage you to watch both.

The Kiss: Is Voodoo Really Evil?

A lot of you may not be familiar with the 1988 Film “The Kiss.” I remember watching it in the 90’s and being so consumed in the movie. The story, The gore, the little parasite coming out of the woman’s mouth! Yeah It was really gross.

You can catch a good film review from Dr Blood's Video Vault.


For those who don’t know the movie I’ll give you a quick summary:

 The movie is set in theUnited Statess and Africa (where we start to fall into the voodoo theme of the movie) and we are introduced to two of the main characters (young sisters), Hilary and Felice Dunbar. Later we go into the late 1980’s where Hilary lives with her husband Jack Halloran and teenage daughter Amy. When Hilary receives an unexpected phone call from her estranged sister Felice, who is now a globe-travelling model, Amy‘s life is forever changed. The two arrange to meet, yet Hilary dies in a gruesome car accident soon after inviting Felice to visit her family in Albany. Felice shows up anyway five months later, swiftly seduces Jack, kills a few interlopers, and makes quick enemies with her niece Amy in order to pass a bloodline that requires a kiss.
So with that being said: "Is Voodoo and those who use it monstrous and evil?"

Looking at this movie you would assume voodoo is evil because of the curse that the family endured because of voodoo. However I have a different opinion. Yes, Voodoo can be used in a monstrous way by an evil person but voodoo in it’s self isn’t evil. According to BBC NEWS Followers, of voodoo, believe in a supreme God and spirits who link the human with the divine and also use the religion to heal the sick and make medicine to cure certain diseases. Once banned, voodoo is now an official religion in Benin, where the practice was born and About 60% of the country's seven million people practice the religion. Forms of voodoo also exist in Togo, Ghana, Haiti and Brazil.

There’s a lot that we don’t understand about voodoo but what makes voodoo monstrous or divine depends on the person using it.
