Horrorfying Summer
Summer of 84- is a really good comedy horror film. The plot is excellent, thoughout the movie it was creepy, scary, but also funny and dramatic.

The plot: Teenager Davey Armstrong is a conspiracy theorist who begins to suspect that a neighbour is a serial killer. With help from three friends, Davey launches a daring investigation that soon turns dangerous.

Its myesterious but also has dark humor within. I highly recordmend watching it.

Great Sfx that stand out even today
The building tension
Some genuine make you jump moments
A cult classic
A great film on so many levels. I love the Alien designs and look of the found spaceship by H.R. Giger. The film is genuinely scary with some iconic scenes. It slowly becomes a game of Alien and mouse aboard a spaceship, providing a claustrophobic setting. If you haven't seen this where have you been?

Genuinely creepy but plot development was poor
No doubt this freaky horror will leave you watching your back and leaving the lights on. However, the story plot is under developed and extremely rushed, moving from one scary scene to another without much explanation. And it has a rather depressing ending, but not that of a 1970s classic horror, leaving no tidbits for a sequel as such. You'll listen to scratching sounds in a different way though!

This book was a monster to get through. It took me a couple of months. That being said, I really enjoyed this book. There were a couple of moments where it was gross or disturbing. I don't think it was particularly terrifying, I can't say it was throw or hide the book across the room scary. I felt a couple of deaths were unsatisfying. But, overall it was a good book and I'm glad I read it.

Meh
This movie had some potential but didn't live up to it. The idea wasn't bad but it just turned out to be a watered down version of "Poltergeist". The acting was just ok and the cinematography was about the same. Nothing really scary about this horror film though. The story moved along pretty slow with nothing too spectacular to offer. If you're really bored this one is an ok time waster. But overall, not really worth a watch.

I didn't care for the graphic language or sexual situations, but the story was mesmerizing, and once I got started it was almost impossible to put down. The sheer possibility of the events is what makes it so tense and scary. You get to a point where you know what is going on, but have to plunge ahead to see how things come out for Jamie and Kirsty. A dark, disturbing story, but I enjoyed it.

Deathnote, a Netflix original. I would recommend however it was not what I had expected. I wanted the demon to be more scary and the ending was anticlimactic. Was not pleased with that. I liked the dark humor in it and the slight plot twist in the end. There wasn't much gore at all and that was disappointing to me. But if you're looking to get into the horror scene this is a great starter film!

Finally, a return to the way vampires should be- monsters that go bump in the night rather than brooding romantic interests. If you like your vampires scary rather than sexy, this show is for you.


I adored the book series this show is based on, and it took me a couple of episodes to accept the changes that had been made. I hope this gets a second series and they delve deeper into the issues raised in the novels.
