[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 31 - FRANKENSTEIN.
@realgdt.bsky.social
âs take on the classic Mary Shelley story is faithful to the spirit of the original story and its thoughtful contemplation on reckless ambition, creation, humanity, and more. Jacob Elordi as the Creature is a standout here..

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 30 - TALK TO ME. After watching BRING HER BACK earlier this month, I wanted to revisit Danny and Michael Philippouâs first feature film. Itâs an affecting and disturbing metaphor on youthful carelessness with drug use.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 29 - CUCKOO. For horror fans wanting to find more niche horror sub-genres, let me present to you this tale of brood parasitism. On this rewatch, I found a better appreciation for Tillman Singerâs brand of weirdness this time around. Itâs atmospheric and at times unnerving.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 27 - JENNIFERâS BODY. Diablo Codyâs quirky dialogue & fun characters make for an entertaining romp in this high school horror comedy. Central characters, Needy and Jennifer, find themselves at a relationship crossroads as their friendship deteriorates when Needy realizes..

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 25 - GOOSEBUMPS 2: HAUNTED HALLOWEEN. Like many a child of the 90s, GOOSEBUMPS was highly influential in my burgeoning horror taste. Iâve been and still am drawn to the property and was rather happy when they started making films based on the books.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 24 - THE UGLY STEPSISTER. I went into this knowing next to nothing and walked out of it having likely found my favorite horror film of 2025. Director Emilie Kristine Blichfeldtâs feature film debut shows such a strong vision, itâs borderline masterful.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 23 - THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE CRADLE. This brand new horror thriller seems to be a bit divisive but Iâm in the âitâs goodâ camp here. Maika Monroe & Mary Elizabeth Winstead both do a fantastic job with their textured characters. Itâs fun seeing Maika in a more villainous role.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 22 - THE LOVE WITCH. This campy throwback to 60s/70s erotic horror manages to nail its aesthetic thanks to the singular vision of writer/director Anna Biller, who wore A LOT of hats on this production.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 21 - NIGHT OF THE REAPER. This movie feels like a run of the mill slasher, until itâs not. I was pleasantly surprised by this one. It can be a little rough around the edges but a twisty reveal actually got me on board with it.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 18 - CRONOS. Guillermo del Toroâs take on vampirism is a melding of vampire lore & the fountain of youth. Itâs not a spreadable affliction, via a vampire bite, but instead itâs a supernatural mechanism that extends the life of the person using it, with monstrous side effects.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 17 - WISHMASTER. With Robert Kurtzman, one of the co-founders of KNB EFX, at the helm, youâd be sure to expect this movie to have fun practical effects, and on that, it definitely delivers! The whole film is a blast of B-movie goodness and is 100% my kind of movie!

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 16 - OCULUS. This reality-distorting supernatural horror movie about a haunted mirror will make you question what you are seeing. The film does a good job of introducing the mirrorâs distortion prowess before it unleashes it in a manner that will make your head spin a bit.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 14 - CASPER. For some family-friendly Halloweeny fun this year, Iâve chosen this supernatural fantasy. Sporting some really great production values and a touching score, this 1995 film utilizes CGI that surprisingly holds up well (in 4K) with its ghostly cartoon aesthetic.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 13 - VAMPIRES. While this may generally be one of John Carpenterâs lesser-talked-about films, I find this pulpy western/horror hybrid to be a pretty fun watch. The film rides a line between being badass and campy with characters that feel dialed up to 11 at times.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 12 - NEW NIGHTMARE. This month we are featuring two A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET films because, well, they both are awesome! Wes Craven goes full meta here and creates something that is so ingenious in how it approaches the power of stories.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 11 - CREEP 2. Iâve been watching THE CREEP TAPES lately, and wanted to revisit this one as I couldnât remember too much about it. Coming off the first CREEP, this sequel subverts your expectations and plays a different angle.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 10 - A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3: DREAM WARRIORS. This 3rd film is amongst my favorite of the series. In a way this one is kind of like Freddy vs the X-men, and Iâm totally here for that. The FX are pretty gnarly (love the stop motion skeleton fight & the marionette kill).

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 9 - BRING HER BACK. I went into this knowing nothing about it other than it was from the filmmakers of TALK TO ME. As a result, I was very engrossed & surprised by this really f$cked up tale of grief. It had me squirming in my seat a number of times & consistently on edge.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 8 - EVIL DEAD RISE. Director Lee Cronin stated that they used over 1,700 gallons of fake blood on this film, which makes sense for how goopy this movie is! RISE is more of a spiritual successor to Sam Raimiâs originals but it makes good use of the EVIL DEAD series trademarks.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 7 - THE MONKEY. Osgood Perkinsâ take on a Steven King short story is pretty entertaining and feels tonally different than his previous films. Itâs got a wicked sense of humor and grisly effects as it tells an absurd tale of family drama and chaotic supernatural violence.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 6 - A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE. This might be my favorite of the A QUIET PLACE series. The change to a NYC setting is a welcome one & the characters are worthy of investing in. Not to mention an adorable cat that might be one of the most well-mannered cats Iâve seen on screen.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 5 - THE FRIGHTENERS. In 1996, just before LORD OF THE RINGS, Peter Jackson directed this supernatural horror comedy starring Michael J. Fox. The film is an entertaining ride with some familiar faces like John Astin, Dee Wallace, Jake Busey, Chi McBride and R. Lee Ermey.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 4 - QUEEN OF THE DAMNED. This movie is kind of like if an Anne Rice novel had a baby with DRACULA 2000. Itâs kind of dumb and Iâm honestly 100% here for it.

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 31 - THE BEYOND. This Lucio Fulci film is a bit fractured story-wise but it exists on a level of pure atmosphere, descending into a bizarre nightmare. There is some truly beautiful imagery and some creative schlocky gore. Find it on Blu-ray & Peacock!

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 28 - FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDYâS. Does this movie live up to the creepiness of the original games? No, not really. It doesnât ever get into the realm of unsettling/terrifying, but itâs still a decent, albeit flawed, watch. In theaters or on Peacock!

[31 DAYS OF HORROR] DAY 26 - GHOULIES. A weird, kind of nonsensical movie that has some cheesy acting, fun effects & a silly charm that makes for an enjoyable watch. I viewed this on the new MVD Visual 4K release & it looks REALLY good. Find it on 4K/Blu-ray & VOD rental.
