Inktober day 18: Children of the Corn (1984) Let’s keep the Stephen King movies rolling! This next one I feel like we all had older cousins try and scary the crap out of us with this movie, but now you watch it and it’s pretty fun!

Inktober day 17: Firestarter (1984) I was always told this adaption was garbage but I ended up liking it a lot. I’m a sucker for “government conspiracy trying to control super people Stephen King” nonsense.

Inktober day 16: The Evil of Frankenstein (1964) Hammer just knocks it out of the park with their monster designs, this Frankenstein’s monster is creepy as hell!

Inktober day 15: Bride of the Monster (1955) My favorite Ed Wood feature (Plan 9 is just too boring) it’s so much fun to watch Bela Lugosi chew the scenery in this one

Inktober day 14: The Fly (1958) Not as gross as the remake but the ending still bugs me out since I saw it as a child (I guess pun intended)

Inktober day 13: The Phantom of the Opera (1962) the final Phantom in the Phantom block and it’s another Hammer film! Let’s get Hammered folks! Hands down one of the creepiest of the Phantom mask designs I’ve ever seen

Inktober day 12: The Phantom of the Opera (1943) it’s another Phantom day! Universal’s phantom is pretty cool, the mask design is fairly slick but I can’t wait for tomorrow’s!

Inktober day 11: The Phantom of the Opera (1925) we’ve reached the Phantom block of this year’s Inktober now! First the original Lon Chaney adaptation that is literally 100 years old and is still freaky

Inktober day 10: The Curse of the Werewolf (1961) the first Hammer film of this year’s horror Inktober list, and man it’s a crazy one. The prologue alone is INSANE, before we even get to Oliver Reed wolfing out!

Inktober day 8: Swamp Thing (1982) next to Hellboy Swamp Thing is one of my favorite superheroes. Big weird dude hanging out in a bog stopping swamp crime?! I’m in.

Inktober day 7: Warlock (1989) fun, trashy, horror fun with the late great Julian Sands as an evil Warlock, biting tongues off left and right in this feature!

Inktober day 6: The Devil’s Backbone (2001) what can be said about Guillermo del Toro’s work? Beautiful, haunting imagery, and sometimes Ron Perlman shows up!

Inktober day 5: Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (1992) Had to get Lynch on the list this year and I did it TWICE! First up: Fire Walk with Me! Turns out Laura Palmer had a crazy kooky life before she died!

Inktober day 4: BONES (2001) NO not the tv show, the 2001 ghost revenge movie directed by Ernest Dickerson. It’s been a minute since I’ve seen watched any of Dickerson’s stuff but he’s the best! Love Juice

Inktober day 3: Friday the 13th (2009) Our final block of Friday movies and instead going to part 3 (which stinks) I went to the remake! Which is fun! It’s a pretty good modern entry point for people new to the franchise to check it out! #fridaythe13th #jasonvoorhees #horror #willpottorff #inktober

Will Pottorff @willpottorff.bsky.social · 16d

Inktober day 2: Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) People argue this is the best one in the franchise and it’s hard to disagree. Bag head Jason is an incredible look but for me? I’m always going part 4 or 6 as my go to entries

It is disconcerting but also emblematic of the times we live in that everyone online is very cavalier about posting: “I guess we might be going into WWIII, lol”
