Halloween Horror Movie Hoe-Down 2025 pt. 2

 Since I didn’t get a chance to properly do some horror movie posts, we’ll just have to rush through all movies but one.

A pretty good number of excellent horror films came out this year.

Bring Her Back - I think their prior horror flick (Talk To Me) was miles better, but this was still a wonderfully executed piece of horror.

Weapons - Have to admit I was disappointed with this one, since I really loved their film prior “Barbarian.” Weapons fell flat.

The Ugly Stepsister - this film was EXCELLENT, but the ending made me want to lobotomise myself.


ON TO THE MAIN EVENT:

Sinners. 

 

Possibly one of if not the best horror movies to come out in a decade. I have but one complaint.

The vampires were entirely unnecessary. The underlying story of Black people in the South in the 1930s trying to create a life, and a space for themselves is compelling enough, and the white supremacists are terrifying enough as a villains—the film doesn’t need any added evil villains. But in general, 10/10 good movie.

Enjoy your Halloween y'all. <3

Horror Movie Hoe-Down 2025

 First off, to the lovely individual who attempted to comment white supremacist christofascist propaganda on my last post, you can forward any future complaints about the contents of my blog to garglemyballs666@eatmyass.com.

It’s October and that means SpOoKy TiMe!!! As I did a few years ago, this year I’m starting another Halloween Horror Movie Hoe-Down.

For the first episode, I’m going to share some not-as-current horror films that are truly excellent.

Not a lot of movies have ever actually scared me. The reason Event Horizon is one of my favourite films of all time (and one of my “comfort films”) is because it actually freaked me the fuck out the first time I saw it in the cinema. So naturally I saw it 2 more times in the cinema.

I covered the first Hell House LLC movie in my last Horror Movie Hoe-Down. I include it again here, because all of its sequels/spin-offs are also well worth a watch. 

 

Generally I do not like found footage type movies, but these films are just excellent in every sense. Great jump scares, and a genuine creep factor that basically makes most of the films feel like one giant anxiety attack—which to me are A++ marks of good horror.


As Above So Below - Another found footage horror, and just as jump-scary and anxiety inducing as the Hell House LLC films. If you watch horror films because you truly want to be scared, give this one a watch.

Here’s some absolutely epic metal. Play at maximum volume.
