Just informed Benny it's not actually an emergency to want butt scritches in the sunshine so it wasn't a valid reason to wake me up.

Old Wounds
Man films his and his girlfriend's trip to her family's remote farm, while they are unknowingly being filmed themselves.
Found footage that never quite goes where you expect. The cast was good, but you could cut the runtime in half and you wouldn't lose much of substance.

Black Theta
After surviving a brutal attack, a twink has to deal with trauma, lesbians, and a death cult.
Really enjoyed this play on the home-invasion slasher. Doesn't take itself too seriously and was fun all around.

The Book of the Witch
A lady steals a book from a witch.
The supporting character is the highlight of this one, otherwise it's a bit silly.

House of Ashes
After losing her partner and unborn baby, a lady quickly rebounds with a man who wears turtlenecks to bed and gets haunted while she's on house arrest.
They used the default Ring doorbell noise like 5 times and made my dog bark. 0/10

Tomorrow I Die
Pregnant woman summons family to a remote cabin to casually reveal she thinks she's going to die the following day and to show the same flashback 500 times.
Handsome Hungarian men were the only real highlight for me.

The G
Imprisoned in assisted-living, a delightfully grouchy lady and her granddaughter have to fight off a "legal guardian" and his goons.
Features probably the most enragingly evil antagonists in a very realistic scenario but also really cathartic. Great all around!

Carry the Darkness
Teenage misfits get caught up in some X-Files bullshit.
Kinda Donny Darko vibes but it really is its own thing. Kept me engaged through the whole thing minus one character's makeup being distractingly not great. Worth a watch though!

Abduct
A group of friends have their trip ruined when one of the group gets 'Freaky Friday'd." Great cast and a really well done story with a splash of dark comedy.

For God's Sake Wake Her Up
A girl's mom dies so she breaks into a stranger's house and treats her friend like shit while fighting an unrelated demon.
Unlikeable characters do unlikable things to drive the plot. Didn't particularly enjoy this one.

Psyche
Lady walks around the desert with an Apple II and thinks about death and stuff.
I'm just a dog so the existential and symbolic whatevers go right through my empty head. Some of the visuals were beautiful but others were annoying 🤷

Play Dead
A kidnapped woman has to reverse Weekend at Bernie's herself through a dinner party to avoid the wrath of a masked killer.
Same production company as 1978 and it has a similar dark vibe but this film felt more cohesive.

A group of friends travel to a remote house, death ensues.
Really fun play on Cabin in the Woods tropes. Bleakly funny but also tragic as heck.

The Lost Episode
Two cops have increasingly weird run-ins on Halloween night.
I'm always hit and miss with found-footage style films but this one was well done. Builds tension well and doesn't feel like copaganda.
Couldn't find a poster for it so I threw one together

Cover
Stamp collector/vendor gets thrown into some drama on a road trip.
The filmmaker basically did ALL of the production himself, which is impressive. The concept was solid but I think it's held back by a lot of unnatural-sounding dialogue.

Beyond the Drumlins
Exploratory archeological expedition into uncharted woods gets out of hand. Lots of coughing happens.
A bit slower-paced but does a good job of drawing you into its mystery.

The Rebrand is really fun! Queer mockumentary about an influencer couple trying to recover from being cancelled. Has a great mix of tension and comedy

For our first film we watched "1978"
It covers a dark period in Argentinean history and subsequently is a bit heavy to start. That said, it's shot really well and was a good watch overall!

There's a horror/sci-fi film fest that we buy a virtual ticket to every year and I figured that I'd give my thoughts on some of the stuff we watch for once!
It's about 25 films and 80+ short films, so this may end up being a lot of posts over the next week or so.
