🎃 You’re Next ★★★★

I think I like it more each time. Saw on a list it was “home invasion” day, so I went with this.

🎃 It’s Alive ★★

Super dated and not great, but it might’ve been the first killer baby film?

🎃 Random Acts of Violence ★★½

🎃 The Night before Halloween ★½

SYFY garbage. At least I stayed awake.

🎃 Kadaver ★★★

Thought this was super original until I found out there’s a play in NYC that’s a similar, immersive experience — complete with masks. This is what I should be writing — simple, small, contained, unique stories that are fucked up. I want to write now. Some day.

🎃 Stake Land ★★★½

I had avoided this, confusing it with the Dee Snyder horror film, “Strangeland,” but this was actually pretty good. A dash of “Zombieland,” a healthy dose of “The Walking Dead” and swap vampires for zombies.
