I have finally watched The Night House. A horror movie starring Rebecca Hall. It was on DisneyPlus surprisingly. A teacher named Beth has lost her husband to suicide. She tries to carry on as best as she can. There is her neighbour and best friend that are featured a fair bit. Some strange things start happening around the home. You would wonder if she is going crazy or if the ghost of her husband has come for her. Good acting and effects. Some creepy moments which I won't spoil. I will look at discussions and reviews. You might like the soundtrack.

Possessor is by Brandon Cronenberg. A scifi horror. His father would be proud. Slow paced. Andrea Riseborough plays an assassin named Tasya Vos working for this organisation. The equipment that they use allows the participant to possess the host's body. Carry out an assassination and leave no trace. I was hoping that I would see multiple hosts. Jennifer Jason Leigh is her boss. There is plenty of graphic violence, sex and nudity. Some nice cock, tits and pussy on show. It will shock some audiences. You might like the soundtrack. I am left asking a few questions. Anyhow the main job is this man named Colin Tate. A former drug dealer now working for a company. His girlfriend is rich. Her father played by Sean Bean is the ceo. As always someone has to be killed. The host isn't willing to give up control. You may have also see Upgrade, Quantum Leap, Self/Less.
Tuppence Middleton and Christopher Abbott also star.
I got to see Marvel Eternals. A Chloe Zhao film. It offers something different to the other films. Interesting to follow the journey of immortal beings. In the beginning the Celestials were here. They created the Eternals. But hidden in the darkness were the Deviants. This specific team are on board a ship. They head to Earth. They weren't to meddle in human affairs. You get to see what they get up to throughout the ages. Some humour. Nice bit of drama and romance. Plenty of action. You will like the special effects and soundtrack. Great cast of actors. I like the Ikaris character. Superb powers. He is handsome. I like the powers of Makkari. Richard Madden could have played Superman. The Deviants thought to have been destroyed are making a comeback. Other secrets are revealed. The heroes had split up and lived their lives as they saw fit. Sersi and Thena looking hot. The team are to report back to Arishem. Worth looking at the back story. The credits scenes need explanation. One casting choice was a surprise. I want to see how this film is connected to others. It is a pretty good film. I would ignore the reviews. One country wants to censor the film. Ridloff is currently in The Walking Dead and Lee was in Train To Busan. Each character has a unique power. Some youtuber or blogger mentioned Mutants. You might like The Old Guard, Highlander.

On Disney+ is Marvel's Hawkeye. Starts of in 2012 when the battle of New York takes place. Kate Bishop is at home with her mother. Her was probably out. There is death and destruction everywhere. During the opening credits you see what she does growing up. I like the theme tune. You might like the soundtrack. It is an origin story for Kate Bishop and a solo outing for Clint Barton. During Christmas. Clint is with the family watching Rogers the musical. The song is kind of good. Kate finding out her mother is engaged. She is suspicious of the fiance and an associate. During a charity event this Russian gang attacks. Clint is wearing a hearing aid. Nice special effects. Good cast of actors. I noticed the Wandavision theme play as this one eyed dog shows up. Clint has now got involved and must protect Kate. They have nods to the previous films. Amongst the cast are Hailee Steinfield, Florence Pugh, Jeremy Reener, Vera Farmiga.
Doctor Who series 13. It has returned. I watched episode 1. It has a Halloween theme. Starting off in Liverpool. You meet Dan, a new companion. He is a trades man and volunteers at the food bank. I wasn't sure about the opening scene with Yaz and The Doctor or with some special effects. There is an alien that resembles a dog. You have a powerful alien that is possibly the season antagonist and I knew that he would escape. The Sontarons and Weeping Angels are back. There is a lot going on. Trying to make sense of it. New music. The Flux is similar to the Antimatter Wave. An apocalypse is taking place. The screen wasn't so clear thanks to the iplayer site.
I have just watched Night Teeth. A horror thriller. Benny is a young man at college. He makes music. His brother owns a chauffeur company. In this world the humans and vampires live side by side. There is a truce that has been broken by the power hungry Victor. Blaire and Zoe hire a limo for the night. Benny just happened to work that shift. You may have seen Collateral, From Dusk Till Dawn, Blade, Daywalkers. The actress playing Blaire reminds me of Selena Gomez. Victor is similar to Deacon Frost. Grace and Eva have nice tits. The soundtrack is good. Good acting from all the cast. Currently on Netflix.

I have watched Vampires Vs The Bronx. A comedy horror. Set in the a neighbourhood. It is being gentrified bit by bit. People are going missing. Vampires are moving in. Some idiot rightwingers will take offence to the film as they are a bunch of snowflakes. Some stereotypes being used. A few annoying characters. You have Miguel the protagonist with his two best friends. Organising a party to help save the Bodega. You have some familiar faces like Chris Redd, Method Man, Mero. I thought Sarah Gadon was Caitlin Reilly. Other cast are Coco Jones, Gregory Diaz IV, Jordan Michael, Gerald Jones III who reminds me of Tyler The Creator, Shea Whigham, Vladimir Caamano. The soundtrack is decent. You might have seen Night Teeth, Blade, Attack The Block.
I have just watched British horror film In The Earth. Would have been made during the Covid19 pandemic. During lockdown. A scientist named Martin has arrived at a camp during the pandemic. He has a job to do and wants to speak to an old colleague of his. His tour guide Alma goes with him. You have Zach that is living in the forest. Also a scientist named Olivia that is running an experiment. You could tell which characters could not be trusted. This is a weird film. There are plenty of strobing effects. It looks like something Danny Boyle could have made. The soundtrack isn't bad. Great performance from the actors especially Reece Sheersmith. Nice special effects. That can get a bit much. This is an indie film. Written by Ben Wheatley. I may need to look at reviews and discussions. You might have seen Midsommar, Sunshine, Blair Witch Project, Evil Dead, Misery, The Forest, Annihilation.
I have watched Midsommar written and directed by Ari Aster. Starring Florence Pugh. A slow paced horror movie. One of those psychological cult films. There isn't much of a soundtrack. Quite a bit of silence during dialogue scenes. You have the odd chants, folk singing and people making weird noises. Good cast of actors. The extras had to put in some work. A lot of the time standing around and other scenes just doing some weird shit. It is a little fucked up. Some scenes I just skipped a few seconds as it felt repetitive. Some good tits on show in one scene. Interesting to see where this was filmed. Making use of the local Swedish actors. I didn't quite like the protagonist Dani as she seems controlling. A family tragedy happened at the beginning. Her boyfriend Christian is always there to support her. He had a university project to do. He is joined by friends Mark and Josh. Mark is a no nonsense kind of guy. Josh is knowledgeable. Pelle is laid back. He invited the group to his home where a festival is being held. Things eventually take a dark turn. You might like the special effects, cinematography, soundtrack, audio. Some of it is quite subtle. The sex scene was just a bit much. Also a moment where Mark was taking a piss I don't think he had got to finish or washed his hands. When the villagers would chant or scream, moan in unison you would think that they were a hive mind. A lot of the actors can sing. The dance choreography took some time. It works though. You do kind of guess what might happen to certain characters. Why choose some over the others? I do distinctly hear screaming in the background but it isn't addressed. I was quite sleepy when I started watching and I would have nodded off. I continued it the next day. I think some gave it a negative review because of the pace and how strange it was. I believe that posters and other images in the early part were the foreshadowing. I tend to look at discussions and the trivia for the film. If you like this then I also recommend In The Earth, The Wicker Man, The Wicker Tree, Hereditary, Lost, The Sacrament, The Endless, Stepford Wives, The Burbs, Arlington Road. Florence Pugh, Jack Reynor, Vilhelm Blomgren, William Jackson Harper, Will Poulter, Ellora Torchia, Archie Madekwe, Henrik Norlén, Gunnel Fred.

I watched Love And Monsters on Netflix. A scifi comedy adventure. Starring Dylan O'Brien. A meteor was headed to Earth. All the governments would do is fire missiles at it. The nuclear fallout created mutations. The small insects and other creatures grew to big sizes. 95% of the population is wiped out. Post apocalypse. Joel is a young man living in an underground colony. He is the protagonist and narrates the story. His girlfriend from before the fallout is Amy. She lives 85 miles away. He decided that if it were to be his last days on Earth then he would rather spend them with her. So he heads off on a journey. I quite like the Mav1s robot. There is a dog named Boy. Other survivors meet him along the way. I have included other films that you might like. Nice soundtrack. Jessica Henwick, Dan Ewing, Michael Rooker and Ariana Greenblatt also star. Worth a look.

I watched Bird Box on Netflix. When I originally had stumbled upon the meaning of the film or what the creatures represented it put me off as it was a spoiler. I eventually watched it. All throughout the world a supernatural force is infecting people. They usually commit suicide but there are others that behave as if they are part of a cult. That I need to work out. Based on a novel. The soundtrack is good. I liked the opening track in the first scene. You have Malorie that is an artist. She is pregnant. Her sister Jessica has come to take her to the hospital. I was reminded of The Happening, Cell, A Quiet Place. You look at two different times. One is when the apocalypse began and another is five years later. Meet a variety of characters. Interesting to see where this force came from. I would liked to have seen more of Jessica. Seeing Malorie getting injured you'd think she would have miscarried. Surprised to see Machine Gun Kelly. Rosa Salazar has a nice body what you see from a sex scene. There are so many cast members that you will recognise. Great acting and special effects. A scifi horror worth watching.
