Hunt this down

Available now on Sky Cinema I just missed this at the cinema when lockdown happened. From the Producers of @The Purge (2013) it has a similar premise to that and @Hard Target (1993)
A bunch of strangers wake up who knows where and soon realise they are being hunted. Some have heard of "Manorgate" an online rumour of a large estate where people are hunted and killed because of their political opinions.
It's very tongue in cheek, darkly comic humour but with plenty of blood splatter. Some of the jokes are hit and miss, but overall it was a fun over the top film for the short run time.

LeftSideCut (3776 KP) rated Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995) in Movies

Apr 7, 2021

To it's credit, this sixth installment in the Halloween franchise is proper batshit. Its out of place quick edits and completely incoherent plot weirdly complement the bizarre performances. At one point, Paul Rudd walks away with a baby in his arms, hunched over like a suspicious child snatcher. Characters inexplicably know where to find eachother without prior contact. Nine of them behave like actual human being. Michaels blood is now green apparently? And they leaned hard into the cult stuff introduced in the previous movie. Its a shame because it eliminates most of Michaels mystique.

Halloween 6 is 100% a bad film, but I automatically rate it more than Halloween 5 just because of how nuts it is. Not quite the worst, miles away from the best.

Experiment Gone Wrong

Murders in the Rue Morgue- didnt come out in 1971, it came out in 1932. @Smashbomb should fix that. Anways it was a intresting movie. Bela Lugosi as this evil mysterious doctor was good.

The plot: In 1845 Paris, mysterious Dr. Mirakle (Bela Lugosi) demonstrates his theories on evolution using his ape, Erik, at a carnival visited by medical student Pierre Dupin (Leon Waycoff) and his girlfriend, Camille Espanaye (Sidney Fox). Unknown to his audience, Mirakle performs experiments in his secret laboratory that involve mixing human blood with that of Erik's. After three prostitutes are found dead from being injected with a strange substance, Pierre is alarmed when Camille goes missing.

It mixes sci-fi and horror togther.
