Dawn of the Dead
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕

My favourite Zombie movie of all time. THE de-facto zombie film! My favourite horror movie of all time. George A. Romero's classic is just that, & then some.

While it might not be my favourite in his filmography, John Hughes sure knew how to create a classic. The incomparable pairing of Martin & Candy really makes this movie shine.

The Possessed (1965) Trailer HD | "La Donna Del Lago" | Peter Baldwin | Valentina Cortese

The Possessed
🌕🌕🌕🌘🌑

This is a pretty good Giallo, though I am new to the genre. An uber-stylized murder-mystery, with a commanding, stoic performance by Peter Baldwin in the lead. The story is gripping, & the intrigue only grows as the film goes along.

An extremely low-budget affair, quite dialogue heavy, with not much in a way of plot. A bit disappointing when all is said & done.

Fleshpot on 42nd St.

Having been recommended to me for a long time, now I begin my descent in to the dungeon of Andy Milligan. A slice-of-life melodrama following the exploits of hustler, & street-walker, Dusty.

Holy f**king shit! This is a proper Video Nasty. Everything is an improvement upon the first film, but particularly the story, that is more "fleshed out" than the original. My only gripe with this movie...

So begins the tale of Art the Clown. A gory, bloody slash-fest that entertains & humours, but fails to engage throughout. While some performances are of note, it is a mostly amateur-ish affair..

Fear Street Prom Queen
🌕🌕🌖🌑🌑

A standalone entry in the franchise, Prom Queen is a myriad of cliches & overused tropes, wrapped up in 80s nostalgia & a synth-pop soundtrack. Extremely predictable affair, & a big disappointment following on from the trilogy.

The King of the Zombies does a slasher. Romero's ugly, sleazy look at the genre is an interesting concept, & does well enough to live up to the promise of it. However, the performances..
