Moria gives it 2 out of 5 stars and says it "does not hold up that well today" and that "not a lot seems to make sense in terms of what is happening". Horrorpedia calls it "needlessly overwrought" and closes with this: "If you have a morbid fear of being slowly squashed by some costumed-loons, there could be food for thought here yet".
I watch horror movies all year but don't post them as I watch them. I schedule them so they'll be scattered through the year except for October when I post more of them. But still, the fact is I didn't watch Crowhaven Farm yesterday. What we did watch yesterday was The Wolf Man and Creature from the Black Lagoon. These are movies I've seen before many times, and I don't tend to write new posts about films like that. Here are the posts on them:
The Wolf Man (1941)
Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954)
The Husband is on vacation this coming week, and a trip -even a little trip- is financially unwise right now. We had plans for seasonal outdoor activities only to be hit with heat in the 90s F. We decided to plunge ourselves into reliving fun monster/horror movies of the past instead. 'Tis the season and all that. I'm letting him select what we watch. He does not like jump scenes, blood, intense suspense, subtitles... As I write this on Friday night he's cooking waffles:
After supper, we watched this:
Frankenstein (1931)

Can't beat the classics. I remember as a kid being scared by the Wolfman, but watching it last year, it struck me that the movie is just talking heads.
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my favorites ;) Such a tragic tale, gypsies, Maria Ouspenskaya...
DeleteSounds like a good vacation and even though I am not one for horror films, it must be good to have someone to watch them with. I guess I am like your husband- I don't like gore or jump scenes especially. Happy weekend. Hug-Erika
ReplyDeleteYes, those old monster movies are his go-to movies for the season. And sweeter movies like Haunted Mansion and Charlie Brown's tv Halloween special.
DeleteSounds like this was tedious and not worth 1 1/2 hours of my time. But I enjoyed reading about how you are spending your vacation. Just being together can be a joy.
ReplyDeleteI'd agree: not worth the time.
DeleteTime together is the best part of a vacation, no matter where we are :)
As a youngster I loved all horror movies, perhaps because I wasn't supposed to watch them, but not so much today. Have a great Sunday, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI'm just the opposite lol I like them much more now, but there are so _many_ and so many _bad_ ones....
DeleteI think I may have seen this one, too, because it was on TV--LOL!
ReplyDeleteI calm week at home can be the best vacation of all! Waffle looks delicious. :)
The TV movies were always more accessible.
DeleteHe makes great waffles and pancakes! :)
