Felt that I would have enjoyed The Babadook more, but what do I know? Like Lovely Molly, it tries to blend two genres unsuccessfully imho.

AANYway.........Watched

Silent Rage (Micheal Miller, 1982).
Chuck Norris' only horror film (unless you count the one where he teams up with a dog cough) hasn't aged well. Whilst ostensibly a slasher film, it seems more preoccupied with Norris' relationship with Stephanie Dunham. Plus Flounder from Animal House is his deputy! The killer is sidelined by evil medicos, whom experiment on him foolishly. Tired and tiring, am amazed I made it to the end of this potboiler.

Deliver Us From Evil (2014, Scott Derrickson)
Cliche piles upon cliche in the "true" tale of a NYPD detective battling demons with a priest as sidekick. Whilst the most horrible thing about this is the overuse of The Doors, I am heartily sick of Seven lite clones, of which this is one. At least it wasn't FF haha, which it threatens to be at the very beginning.........
