Cannibal Troll. 2021. A group of women on a hen party are stalked by a murderous troll lurking in the nearby woods. Cannibal: a person who eats the flesh of other human beings. Humans should be safe if the troll is a cannibal The title is misleading, it should be Troll Of The Woods. Flashbacks of 2020 came back to me, not for the Covid-19 and lockdown part but the shitty movies I watched as I was 40 minutes in to this and It doesn't get any better. Right at the start we see the troll that looks like it's the same height as Rawhead Rex Will admit the costume is better than the ones in Troll 2. A guy has his neck bitten and we see little blood on the guy as well as the mouth of the troll. The acting is well and truly bad, even though this was made in England, it looks badly dubbed. Avoid.

Speak No Evil (2022, Christian Tafdrup) Making friends on holiday can be fun .... can't it? I can't remember the last time that the ST seemed to be unbalancing the actual film? Regardless, I enjoyed this one ... mostly. It reminded me of The Invitation, in that you are not quite sure but something seems off hereabouts. It's just that the last act doesn't quite work for me. Shame. Next!!

House Of Wax. 1953. Prof Henry Jarrod a wax sculptor is presumed dead in a fire that was started by his business partner. Jarrod survives but now a cripple and plans on opening a new House Of Wax using people that have been murdered as his pieces of art. A decent remake of the 1933 film Mystery Of The Wax Museum, Vincent Price plays the sculptor turned psychotic murderer in this with a early appearance of of Charles Bronson as one of his assistants Igor and Carolyn Jones as one of his victims who becomes Joan Of Arc in his display. Andre De Toth does a great job directing this little chiller and using 3D technology even though he was actually blind in one eye and able to create good set pieces for a film set in 1900s. Vincent Price never goes over board with his acting, it may seem very tame today but still enjoyable and never gets boring. 51Iv+vfSU3L._AC_.jpg Up next Impulse

Impulse. 1984. After a tremor happens in a small town, the locals begin to go on a path of destruction and self harming. This was a odd one and almost like The Crazies, the toxin is not in the water but in the milk that spewed onto a farmer's property and he begins to deliver it as always to everyone. Meg Tilly and her partner Tim Matheson head home after her mother acted a bit out of the ordinary and slowly watch as those around them seem a bit unsettled with their life Including brother Bill Paxton. This is something that Stephen King would create, it does have some good actors, eerie atmosphere and a sheriff who seems trigger happy, but the pace was a bit slow at times. Re-watch may happen.

Halloween Ends HALLOWEEN ENDS Well, this was an odd one, and my feelings towards it are complicated. Overall, I liked it, but I have major issues with too. Issues so major that I’m not sure if I could objectively call it a good film. But I’m not sure I could call it a bad film either. Let me put it this way – did anybody ever watch Fallen Angels and wonder what it would be like if Michael Myers was in it? This will be filled with spoilers. You’ve been warned. SPOILER:

Long Time Dead. 2002. A group of students use a Ouija board and unleash a demonic force. This has nothing new that hasn't been done before, a group of college students decide to play with dark forces, i'm sure we all done daft things and this is why you shouldn't play with dark forces. For some reason these coeds somehow released a Djinn which possesses one of them and goes on a killing spree. This one I last saw a few years back and I wasn't gripped by it and the same again but did have some good tense moments, even during the seance scene can have you glued to the screen and built up well for the suspense. The death scenes aren't brutal and imaginative but they can happen when you least expect it with some of the cast. Go into this with a open mind and don't expect it to be a big budget horror flick.

In seriousness though, I agree with your review pretty much spot on. A re-write to remove Michael Myers and Laurie Strode from the film and give it a proper ending and it'd be such a better film, then DGG could have made an actual Halloween Franchise ending film, because this was not it.
