I Start Counting (1970) was simply stunning. All the best and the worst of people and places of the late-60s/early 70s colliding in an atmosphere I’ve only experienced in Picnic At Hanging Rock (1975).

Honestly, pretty pleased (appalled? 🤣) with my 2025 and the first and last watched sum up the overall watching vibes perfectly.

Lovely colour scheme too, I must say.

A massively pleasant surprise courtesy of Dracula (2025). It honoured what came before, brought something new, had a great cast, and had plenty of wit to go with it. I’ve either been living under a rock or it just had no marketing at all. So odd.

Yearly tradition of ‘Japanese’ Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve. The family have very happy tummies.
A closed KFC cardboard box with red-and-white stripes and the Colonel Sanders logo sits on a wooden table. In the background are a Hotel Chocolat white cardboard Christmas cracker tied with red ribbon and another KFC box partially visible.

Last night I achieved(?) 365 horror films this year completely unintentionally.

It’s fitting that no. 365 was the high strangeness found footage Horror In The High Desert 4: Majesty (2025).

Row (2025) is a very decent, horror-adjacent, mystery thriller. The poster makes it look “shitty horror”. It’s anything but. Hard recommend tbh.

An American Haunting (2005) was just characters screeching with a soundtrack of noise…

A pretty “mid” week. Not bad, but definitely not great.

Highlight was an unexpected love arc featuring Jamie Lee Curtis and David Copperfield (yes, that David Cooperfield) in Terror Train (1980).

AI tech bros promising to allow you to talk to a digital simulacrum of your dead relatives as a false comfort during your natural process of grief are, I’m afraid, in contravention of the 1736 Witchcraft Act, the 1951 Fraudulent Mediums Act, and should be hanged. I don’t make the rules.

As I continue Saw-athon re-watch. I’ve really realised that this franchise is one hell of a commitment to a singular storyline, like it or love it.

I promise I didn’t watch out of order, simply forgot to log IV (2007) on the day. Doh!
