Monday Movie Night
After some much needed decompression from our Halloween Movie Marathon in October, we can now commence with our weekly Monday Movie Night. This week we’re watching “Thanksgiving”.
What’s great about this movie is that it covers Thanksgiving (as the title clearly implies) and the awesomeness that is Black Friday shopping. Everyone loves wholesome family get togetherness and buying stuff, everyone. Oh the good times.
Why Monday Movie Night you ask? Cause Mondays are horrific! For serious…look it up. Mondays ain’t right. But you know what’s right? Watching Horror movies and eating snacks and sometimes, not always but sometimes taking naps. Facts!!!!
Day Thirty One: Trick r Treat
Happy Halloween everyone. Our marathon is coming to a close. What better way to end these 31 days than with Sam. Our favorite orange footie pajama, burlap sack wearing trick or treating demon. Please enjoy “Trick r Treat”
Day Thirty: Night of the Demons
Hey there’s a party tonight at Hull House. Cool, wait…the abandoned funeral parlor? Isn’t that place haunted? Oh and while we’re there we should perform a seance. Good times.
Day Twenty Nine: Girls with Balls
GO FALCONS!!!!!! For serious tho, Go!!!!! It’s dangerous out there.
Day Twenty Eight: Abraham Lincoln Vs. Zombies
You have no idea how often I’ve said to myself “what if our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, had to fight vicious, cannibalistic Zombies”? or better yet, hunt Vampires”? Well in 2012 both of those questions were answered. In film form. You’ll never think of the Gettysburg Address in the same way again.
Day Twenty Seven: Bride of Chucky
This is probably one of the more interesting films in the Child’s Play franchise. There’s a lot going on here. In a good way.
Day Twenty Six: Vampire in Brooklyn
This film was quite polarizing. Eddie Murphy as a villain? So not easily accepted back in the day. Let alone a Vampire! But…over the years it has found not only acceptance but also praise.
Day Twenty Five: Bubba Ho-Tep
Bruce Campbell and Ossie Davis as Elvis and John F Kennedy, currently living out their last days in a nursing home, face off against an ancient Egyptian Mummy. 🤯
Day Twenty Four: Cabin in the Woods
Could there be such a thing as a horror film that has everything? Monsters, Demons, Slashers, Elder gods? Yes…this is that film. For serious. Everything! Could this statement just be hyperbole? Could be, but it’s not.
Day Twenty Three: Elvira Mistress of the Dark
This will always find its way onto the list. Without fail. Always on the list.
Day Twenty Two: What We Do in The Shadows
So a documentary crew follows four vampires who are roommates in the suburbs of Wellington, New Zealand. Obviously shenanigans to be had.
Day Twenty one: Shaun of the Dead
The first film in the “Cornetto trilogy or the “Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy” or the “Blood and Ice Cream trilogy” whatever you would like to call it, tonight, we’re watching the first one.
Day Twenty: Hatchet
So the story goes that a deformed young boy was accidentally killed by his father while trying to save him from a house fire. That boy was Victor Crowley. “Don’t go near that cabin, or Hatchet face will get you”
Day Nineteen: Scary Movie
A good way to finish the week. We started on Sunday with Scream and we’re ending on Saturday with Scary Movie. Some would call it a spoof, I on the other hand like to refer to it as an Homage.
Day Eighteen: The Dead Don’t Die
It all started with a report of a missing chicken. This is how most good stories begin. With a report of a missing chicken.
Day Seventeen: Young Frankenstein
Not sure if this one qualifies as horror? It’s got a monster! He does dance and sing at one point. Regardless, please enjoy this magnificent Mel Brooks classic.
Day Fifteen: Suck
SUCK, a tale about a struggling band that must make the hard decisions that success demands. Sometimes…those decisions come back to “Bite You”
Day Fourteen: Black Sheep
So…sheep, yup. Carnivorous, bloodthirsty, angry…like really angry sheep. Zombie sheep. Amazing. Thanks New Zealand. Thank you so very much.
Day Thirteen: Scream
Today for your viewing pleasure we have Scream. Smart, funny, scary. A mini course on all things horror up to and including its release in 1996. A classic for sure.
