Psycho III 1986
The tone feels similar to other 80s slashers of the time such as Silent Night, Deadly Night and My Bloody Valentine.Β
The neon lighting and sex/pornography aid in a sleazier, darker tone β especially following that wild opening! This sequel fully embraces its slasher tendencies, and βMotherβ as the slasher villain is so much fun. She definitely gets a bit knife happy.Β
By this third installment it reallyΒ feels like Anthony Perkins took over the reins of this franchise, and deservedly so! His performance as Norman is always enthralling, and his direction is solid.

A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy's Revenge 1985
I donβt think we talk enough about how absolutely stellar the special effects makeup is in this installment. There are some absolutely gruesome and brutal moments of body horror throughout this film.Β
And throw the whole entire queer subtext on top of it that basically becomes full text. This is such a bizarre and mean movie. Freddy Krueger is genuinely terrifying in this sequel. A lot of his quips and one-liners are absent this time around, and he is pissedβ¦

Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City 2021
Oh man, I think Iβm going to be in the minority here but I genuinely felt this movie puts forth a valiant effort. At times it even succeeds at being eerie and creepy. It fully feels like a video game adaption, probably for better and worse.
So much of this reminded me of Silent Hill (2006)Β - how focused it is on recreating the world and iconic scenes known by fans from their respective video games. Maybe it does try to pack in too much fan service, but the end result is still a swift and entertaining adaptation.

The Witches 1990
Angelica Houston serving witch looks and wanting to kill children and pushing baby carriages down a hill?!? She is a gay icon thereβs no doubt about it.
