SHOCKtober: 507-483



As we reach the 400 block of HorrorFavoritesTown, we are still dealing with films that received ONE VOTE each. Can you believe this shit?

Also, the denizens of HorrorFavoritesTown harbor a terrible secret! I suggest you turn back now before your curiosity and attraction to that pretty girl who seems more normal than everyone else drive you to do things like visit the barn after midnight (where the secret ceremonies are held, duh) and trawl through the archives at the town hall (when the crotchety old woman who works the desk isn't looking, duh). I don't care if your car has a flat tire and the filthy mechanics say it'll take another week to fix it- get out now! NOW! The pretty girl is totally in on it and she's going to lead you to your doom, which will involve you being strung up as a sacrifice to some vague demon or something. The High Priest (who is also the Mayor, duh) is a little sketchy on the details, but if the folks of HorrorFavoritesTown don't sacrifice a stranger every year on a solstice or snniversary or something, then the crops will die and HorrorFavoritesTown will collapse. PLEASE NOTE: If you, the stranger, happen to be female, then you won't be sacrificed, but you WILL be impregnated and the "pretty girl" encountered earlier won't be a "pretty girl", but will rather be a "vulnerable child that must be saved".

Wait, where was I? Oh yeah, the list.

  • Hag horror represent!
  • You know, for a remake of a beloved Asian horror flick, The Uninvited wasn't too bad. Unless whoever sent this in wasn't referring to that The Uninvited. There are quite a few movies with that title, so what are you gonna do?
  • Cold Prey is a pretty terrific slasher movie, but I've yet to check out the sequel, even though it's sitting here waiting patiently for me.
  • Wow, that was a fascinating bit of trivia. Thanks so much, Stacie!
