Sound of Violence 2021
I don't know the last time I've been hit so close to home by a movie.
Quick personal story- I lost a significant amount of my hearing when I was a kid, the doctor didn't know the cause but something neural, and then it came back to an extent though I still had loss in certain ranges.

Chances are this will go down as legitimate mid-corona isolation horror here in a few years when we're all dead and cockroaches are ruling the earth. The death throes of civilization looking for something other than reality to fear. Happy trails.

Monster Inside: America's Most Extreme Haunted House 2023
I've said it before and I'll keep saying it. Fuck Russ McKamey. Absolute scum. Go rot.
Nothing terribly new here, except I didn't know about the email hacking.

DreadOut 2019
This is the type of game concept that doesn't translate well to film because there's a huge difference between the phone gimmick first person in a video game versus watching a teen use their phone camera flash as a weapon on film.

Eko Eko Azarak: Wizard of Darkness 1995
It's basically a Japanese Harry Potter. With Satanic rituals. And voodoo. And nudity. And beheadings. And gore. And lesbians.

Love Exposure 2008
It is so rare to find a movie that's so good it hurts. Especially in dramas or comedy. And even more so when it has a four hour runtime. That combo is basically impossible. Love Exposure is the impossible.
