8 Films to Sleep, er, Die For
From now on when something sounds too good to be true I'm going to believe that it is. My friend Justin (who I go to movies with) and I decided to go to the 8 Films to Die For festival Saturday night. We are both horror movie junkies and the hype surrounding this fest was nothing short of insane. I read articles about how "shocking" these movies were going to be, how "unfit for the general public" they were, and how all-out creeptacular this fest was going to be.
Well yes, the movies were shocking...shockingly BAD! The first movie, "The Gravedancers," was dumb but it did rate pretty high with a fun cheese factor. However, the second film, "The Abandoned," was so lame and plotless that I can't imagine who would have paid to have this movie even made, let alone include it in a horrorfest. I mean I've seen scarier things in my basement, people! Next time I go to a horrorfest and it sucks I'm demanding my money back.
Thankfully, faeriecatofdoom and bygbadwulf were there for the first movie to add much needed commentary. It was very Mystery Science Theater 3000-ish Bygbadwulf posted in his blog that I'm a "coolie shit-o" but I think he's only saying that because I bought him a big bag of popcorn
