It was all leading to this final episode of season 6. We knew that Negan was going to make an appearance. This episode begins with Rick and the others being intimidated by the Saviors who are blocking all of their routes. They have no way of getting by them. Carol meets Morgan. She is injured from where she was attacked by the Savior she met. He is not dead, though and he comes back to finish the job on her. He shoots her in the arm and leg and he is going to finish her off when Morgan comes and saves her. He meets a stranger who is a good guy and he is going to help them, so this introduces a new group, maybe?
Rick and his group have to face off with the Saviors who have Daryl and the others held hostage. There is something inevitable about their being captured too. They end up being disarmed and meeting the big man himself, Negan played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan. He is a leather clad baddie with a baseball bat called Lucille. He is pissed at them for killing his men and he wants retribution. He tells them that they work for him now and that they will give him half of everything that they have, no matter what. Failure to do so will not be pretty. He tells them that they have to pay for what they have done and he selects one of the group to die. Who is it? We don't know and all we get to see is the screen going black as the victim is beaten to death.
The ending annoyed me as I felt that we should have seen who it was. Waiting for months on end to discover this is just irritating. On a brighter note, I enjoyed the scene with Negan. It bodes well for the future of the series. You have to have a good baddie and he looks good to me. Let's hope that season 7 will be worth waiting for!
The movie carries on from the where the first film left off. Michael Myers is supposed to be dead, but we all know that he isn't. Laurie(Curtis) is taken to the local hospital after what happened to her and Dr. Loomis(Pleasence) is still looking for Michael. Michael is wandering around Haddonfield and he manages to get himself a knife and he kills someone on his travels. He discovers that Laurie has been brought to the hospital and decides to go there and finish her off. She talks to a paramedic called Jimmy(Lance Guest) and they become friends.
Michael arrives at the hospital and he cuts the phone lines. He kills lots of the hospital staff. Laurie knows that he is coming for her and she is paralysed with fear. Michael knows that she is in the hospital and will stop at nothing to get at her. Loomis is confronted by a colleague and a marshal who are going to take him away to an institution because hey think that he is obsessed with Myers. They talk about Myers and Loomis finds out that Laurie is Michael's sister and that is why he is going to kill her. Loomis gets the Marshal to drive to the hospital where Laurie is. He thinks that Michael is there.
Michael chases Laurie as she tries to escape. She makes it outside and Michael comes for her. Loomis and the others get to her in time and Loomis goes after Michael. He shoots him and they think that he is dead, but he isn't. He kills the marshal and chases after Loomis and Laurie. He stabs Loomis and he gets shot by Laurie this time- does this guy ever die?? Loomis manages to ignite gas and cause an explosion and sets Michael on fire and the guy FINALLY dies! The movie ends with Laurie being taken away seeing Michael's smouldering body.
This was an enjoyable sequel and although it was not as good as the original, I liked the way that it followed on from the first story. Michael is still creepy and the atmosphere is tense also. I think that this is the best sequel in the series.I will give it a 7/10.
The movie begins with five tourists who decide to go to a road called Lemon Tree Passage. There is an urban legend about a ghost who haunts the road. A man was knocked down by a group of teens in the road. They left him to die there. He is the ghost who haunts the road. The group consists of Americans Maya(Tovey), Amelia(Black) and Toby(Tim Pocock) who are shown to the spot by Aussies Oscar(Andrew Ryan) and Geordie(Phillipps). They go back to their house and weird things start to happen. Maya thinks that she sees things. She has nightmares. They decide to go back to the road again and Oscar disappears. They call his phone and look for him, but nothing happens. They discover him in the boot of their car. They try and call the cops for help but they can't.
Maya finds Oscar's phone and she keeps it. Oscar disappears from the boot. Toby has vanished too. Toby is found dead by the others. Maya sees a dead girl who was missing. She follows her into the woods. Geordie's brother, Sam(Gunn)comes along too and he is very dodgy. Everything gets confusing from this point. Visions appear and people die and it's a bit messy.The ending is left up to you to sum up and I summed it up pretty quickly. This movie was not good and it was messy to say the least.There are lots of jumps and scares but not much else. There are a few Australian soap stars in this. Jessica Tovey starred in Home and Away, Pippa Black starred in Neighbours, as did Tim Phillips and Nicholas Gunn. They aren't bad actors, but the movie isn't great. I will give it a 4/10.
The movie is set in Spain in the 18th century. A beggar comes to the house of a Marques at his wedding feast and he is humiliated and thrown in jail by the evil Marques(Anthony Dawson). He languishes there for years and begins to turn into some sort of animal. His only human contact is with his jailers daughter. She ends up in the jail cell with the beggar who rapes her. She escapes from the prison and she finds herself pregnant. She is taken in by Don Alfredo Corledo(Clifford Evans) and his housekeeper Teresa. The baby is born and she dies, leaving Don Alfredo and Teresa to bring the child up. They call him Leon. He is not a normal child and he has a taste for blood.
Don Alfredo and Teresa know that he is cursed as his mother was raped and he was born on Christmas Day. Cut to years later and Leon(now played by Reed) is off to find his place in the world. He goes to look for work at a vineyard. Here he meets his boss Gomez(Ewen Solon) and his beautiful daughter Cristina(Catherine Feller). They fall in love, even though she has a fiancee. Unfortunately, Leon goes out with his pal one night and kills people. He has turned into a werewolf! He gets thrown in jail as the police think that he has had something to do with the murders. He calls for Don Alfredo and the mayor and begs them to execute him before he changes. They don't and he changes into a werewolf and breaks out of the jail. He runs amok in the town and the villagers try and get him. Don Alfredo has a silver bullet and he goes after his son and shoots him dead even though it breaks his heart.
This was an okay movie. The only reason I really watched it is because I like Oliver Reed and he is good in this film. Otherwise, this is mediocre. So, be warned that there isn't much to this but if you are a Hammer fan, you might enjoy it. I will give it a 5/10.
The last time, Carol had left Alexandria because it was all getting too much for her. So, this episode begins with her being caught by a group of Saviors. They think that she is just a weak woman and they mess with her. She has a gun, along with her rosary beads and she pulls it out and shoots them all- or so she thinks. She hasn't killed one and he attacks her with a knife. She escapes and takes off. Rick and the others see her note and decide to go after her and bring her back. Daryl heads off alone without telling the others. Glenn, Michonne and Rosita follow him. Rick and Morgan head to find Carol. Morgan tells Rick to head back and he will find Carol alone.
Daryl is after Dwight because he killed Denise and he and Rosita look for him. Michonne and Glenn split from them and get captured by The Saviors. Maggie is with Enid who cuts her hair short when Maggie collapses in agony. Daryl and Rosita manage to get themselves captured by The Saviors which does not bode well. You can really see that this is leading to a showdown between Negan and Rick's group....
In Germany in the 1900's, there is a village called Vandorf and there are a large amount of murders in the area. There is a creepy Castle in the area and all of the locals are afraid to go anywhere near it. A young man called Bruno Heitz is with her girlfriend when they have an argument. She runs off into the forest and sees something horrific. She is killed and the locals blame Bruno for it. He is found hanging from a tree and the inquest says that he killed her and then himself. Doctor Namaroff(Peter Cushing) signs off on it, but he looks shifty. His assistant is Carla(Barbara Shelley) and she finds that the body of the young girl who was killed has turned into stone. There is a legend going around that the Gorgon called Megaera who has snakes coming out of her head is in the village and she is at the castle. She kills people by turning them to stone when they look at her. She has assumed human form so who is she?
Bruno's father turns up and wants to investigate what happened, but he too sees something horrible and turns into stone but not before writing a letter to his son telling him what is going on. Paul Heitz (Richard Pasco)turns up in Vandorf and wants answers about what happened to his brother Bruno and his dad. Dr. Namaroff is not giving anything away. He seems to know something, but will not help Paul to find out what is going on. The local Inspector Kanof(Patrick Troughton) is not too keen on Paul digging around.
Paul's friend is Professor Karl Meister(Lee) and he comes to Vandorf to see what is going on. Paul has seen something horrible near the castle and ended up in hospital. He has aged too. He has also fallen in love with Carla. He wants to take her away but she can't go. Namaroff is in love with her too and he doesn't want to let her go. He knows something about her and he is protecting her. Meister tells Paul that he thinks that Megaera is inside Carla. Paul doesn't believe it. He meets Carla and he wants her to go to Leipzig to wait for him and they can be together. Meister tells Paul that she will not leave Vandorf as she is Megaera. Namaroff turns up looking for Carla and they all end up at the castle. Namaroff and Paul fight over Carla and Megaera shows up. Namaroff looks at her and dies. Paul sees her too. Meister chops off her head and Paul sees her turning back into Carla before he dies. This was entertaining and good fun to watch. I liked the cast and even though the special effects are not the best(they are really bad!), I really enjoyed watching this movie and I recommend it to Hammer fans. I will give it 7/10.
This episode begins with all of the characters reflecting after their slaughter of The Saviors. Carol is not happy about what is happening. Daryl tells her that he wishes that he had killed the people who held him captive and took his crossbow in an earlier episode. Denise goes with Rosita and Daryl to get some supplies. They go to the pharmacy where Denise sees things that disgust her. Abraham and Eugene are looking around and Eugene tells him that he wants to make ammo. Abraham steps in to save him when a walker attacks. Eugene thinks that he can look after himself so Abraham leaves him to it.
Denise and the others have an altercation with a walker and Denise manages to kill it and she is happy. Suddenly, she is shot through the eye with a crossbow. She dies instantly. Daryl and Rosita are devastated and Dwight emerges from the bushes with a posse. He has Eugene captured too. He wants Daryl to lead them to Alexandria. Abraham sees this from the bushes. Eugene tells Dwight that they have back up and when they go to see, he bites Dwight in the crotch. This gives them a chance to get their guns and a fight happens. They manage to kill a few of The Saviors and Dwight has to flee. Daryl and the others make it back to Alexandria where Daryl buries Denise. Abraham tells Sasha that he likes her and he makes up with Eugene. The episode ends with Tobin reading a goodbye letter from Carol who is going off alone for some reason. What the hell is going on with her character? It is very annoying...
1992 was an interesting year for horror movies but I wouldn't say that it was the best. Firstly I will begin with a movie that I enjoyed when it was originally released. Bram Stoker's Dracula was directed by Francis Ford Coppola and starred Gary Oldman in the lead role, with Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder co starring. There was a great cast and I really enjoyed it. It was a box office success unlike a lot of the other horror movies from this year, but, being a fan of the book, this was a good adaptation in my opinion. Keanu Reeves looked lost in this film, but apart from that, it was well made and enjoyable.Another favourite of mine from this year is Sleepwalkers based on a screenplay by Stephen King and directed by Mick Garris who has directed many King adaptations. It starred Alice Krige and Brian Krause as vampires who can turn into creatures. They are mother and son and they are living in a small town. Charles meets a young woman, played by Madchen Amick and he wants her so that he can drain her life force. She fights him and then all hell breaks loose. It is a good movie andI enjoyed it. It isn't one of the better known King adaptations, but good fun!
Another King story adapted this year is Lawnmower Man starring Pierce Brosnan and Jeff Fahey. I liked this, even though King did not and sued to get his name taken off of it. It is an entertaining movie nonetheless.Candyman was released this year and while it is not one of my all time favourites, it is a good movie. It is adapted from a story by Clive Barker and Virginia Madsen stars in the lead role. Dolly Dearest and Demonic Toys were released this year too. I find those weird dolls creepy anyway so this was a creepy movie, while not great. Demonic Toys had some creepy moments too and those toys are weird! It's not a brilliant film, but fun anyway. More movies released are Braindead, Dust Devil, Raising Cain, The Resurrected and Netherworld.
Sequels were many this year. Let's start with Army of Darkness. This is the third movie in the Evil Dead series. It is really entertaining and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Some other sequels which were not so great are Hellraiser 3, Pet Semetary 2, ,Waxwork 2. Amityville:It's About Time is the sixth movie in the Amityville series. It wasn't a bad movie, but as the sequels roll on, the quality declines. Stepfather 3 was so so and not one that I would watch again. House 4 was okay, but nothing special. Prom Night was still making sequels in this year and this time it was Prom Night 4- the last movie in the series. It was better to end it here as the movies got worse as they went along. The Gate 2 was not really worth watching. Basket Case 3 was not great either in my opinion. So there you have it- my selection of films from 1992. Some good, some bad, some mediocre, but all horror! Enjoy!
Last time, Carol and Maggie were taken hostage by The Saviors. This episode tells that story. Carol and Maggie are with their captors who happen to be three women-Paula(Alicia Witt),Michelle and Molly. They see Rick capture their man Primo. They tell Rick that they have the two women and Rick tries to make a deal with them. Carol and Maggie are taken to a building where they are put into a room with the three women. Paula is talking to reinforcements over the radio and Carol pretends to be a harmless woman who doesn't know anything about killing or death. They are tied up. Their captors discover that Maggie is pregnant.
Carol and Maggie talk to their captors and Carol tries to tell them that there doesn't have to be any more killing. Paula thinks that she is an idiot who is terrified. Carol manages to get herself free and she releases Carol. They have no choice but to shoot their captors and Carol kills the reinforcements. They run outside and find Rick and the others. They are shaken up by their ordeal and Carol seems to be cracking up a bit. Rick asks Primo who is Negan and he tells Rick that he is. Rick kills him. Carol is shocked.
This was a good episode. I am not sure that I like the way that Carol's character is heading.She is a tough woman and that is good. I hope that they don't mess that up.
Joanne(Lapinski) is a college student who is clearing out a dormitory in her college which is being demolished. She has to pack everything up and make sure that the place is ready within two weeks. She has the help of her friends Brian( David Snow), Craig(Sachs),Patty(Pamela Holland) and Debbie(Zuniga). What they don't know is that there is a killer on campus who is disposing of the college kids. The group are working away, but Debbie has to leave as her parents are collecting her to take her home. Her parents are waiting for her in their car when her dad decides to walk around o find her. He is killed and her mother is killed too. She is killed by an unknown person and dragged away.
There is a local weirdo on campus too. He is called John(Woody Roll) and he is living there when he should not be. He appears and disappears and he unnerves everyone with his creepiness. They try and tell him to get out of the dorm, but he doesn't leave. They think that he is up to something weird. When they hear noises they think that it is John. They call the cops and tell them. The cops tell them that they will check in on them later. Joanne meets a guy called Bobby who is buying some tables from her and he likes her.
When Brian disappears and is found dead and Patty is cooked alive in a pressure cooker, Joanne and Craig are left to battle with the killer. They think that it is John and they manage to kill him between them. But, Joanne gets the surprise of her life when Craig reveals that the killer is HIM. He loves her and he kills anyone who gets close to her. He chases her and she tries to escape. Bobby turns up looking for her and she tells him what is going on. The cops show up too. Craig tells them that BOBBY is the killer and they shoot him. He manages to get Joanne and throw her into the incinerator and his guilt goes unknown.
This movie was not bad, but it is a bit thin plot wise. I liked it though and it did keep me watching so that is good. There are no frills here and the acting isn't great, but if you are looking for a cheap horror movie, then this will entertain you. I will give it a 5/10.
Well, the last episode ended with Rick, Jesus and the group deciding to take on Negan and The Saviours. This will not be an easy task and all of the people in Alexandria go to a meeting and decide who is going to fight and who will stay in Alexandria. Carol seems very nervous about this we wonder what is going on with her. She seems to be thinking about things as she visits a grave. Rick tells the group what happened with Daryl, Abraham and Sasha and about The Saviours almost killing them. He wants to get them before they decide to come to Alexandria. Morgan doesn't agree.
Carol talks to Tobin and they kiss. They seem to be more than just friends. Things are not going so well for Abraham and Rosita. He dumps her in a brutal fashion telling her that she is not the only woman left on earth. She is very upset. The group need a head as a stand in for Gregory's whom The Saviours expect to be dead. They are going to deliver it to the place where they leave the food and supplies. Once inside, then they can start the killing. They get a walker's head and try and make it look like Gregory. One of the men who has been at The Saviours' place shows them what he knows and they leave.
When they reach it, Jesus shows them the head and they are allowed inside. They kill everyone that they meet and wander through the building. They come upon gruesome Polaroids of dead people which is creepy. Carol and Maggie are outside the place, keeping watch. The others kill and fight with the people that are there. Jesus arrives and he helps them. They finally end the fight but they see a Saviour riding away on Daryl's motorbike. They chase him and they are going to kill him when a voice comes over the radio telling them to lower their weapons- they have hostages, Carol and Maggie. This isn't going to end well!!!!Great episode with lots happening.
This episode begins with Jesus telling Rick and the others about the group to which belongs. They are called the Hilltop . They can offer Rick's group stuff that they need such as food and medicine in return for guns and ammo. Rick and some of the others decide to travel with Jesus back to his community and see what they can do about trading. Abraham and Sasha are getting along very well and he is attracted to her. He is still with Rosita, though, so I don't know what will happen there. He asks Glenn how he feels now that Maggie is pregnant. Glenn is happy and wants to bring his child into the world as it is now. Rick and the others are on their way to the Hilltop when Jesus sees a car that he recognises. It belongs to their community and the group finds some of his people who have been attacked.
They all arrive at the Hilltop and enter. They see a huge house and a lot of people who are growing crops etc. They are taken to meet the leader of the community who is called Gregory. They are not sure what to make of him. He doesn't impress them. Rick asks Maggie to deal with him about trading. She tries to make a deal with him but he is a sleaze and tries to come on to her. Some of the Hilltop people come back from a meeting with Negan who is the head of The Saviours. Negan is forcing them to give him half of their supplies in return for their lives. He sends a message with one of the people because the supplies were less than they should have been. The message consists of Gregory being stabbed in the stomach by one of his own men as a warning.
Gregory is helped and he doesn't die. Jesus tells them about Negan and the deal that they made with him. Negan is holding one of their group and Rick tells him that they can rescue their man and take out the Saviours in return for supplies. Gregory accepts their offer. They head off after Glenn and Maggie get an ultrasound by the doctor and show their printout picture to everyone. This was an interesting episode which sets up a big confrontation between Rick's group and the Saviours. That will end in bloodshed, I predict!
1982 was a great year for horror movies and movies in general. I could list all of the movies from this year, but I will just concentrate on the best ones or the good ones. Let me see, I think that I will start with some of my favourite films from the year.
Firstly, Poltergeist. This movie is directed by Tobe Hooper who has made some fine movies over the years. I love this film as it is creepy and well written(Spielberg co wrote this). I really enjoy it and it is definitely a classic. There is no point going into the plot because you should have seen this movie! Next,Creepshow. I enjoyed this movie penned by Stephen King and directed by horror maestro George A. Romero. It is in the vein of The Twilight Zone. It is a classic combination of old fashioned story telling with modern creepiness. The Thing was directed by John Carpenter and starred Kurt Russell. This is a very good horror with some great scenes.A low budget horror movie called Basket Case was released in this year. It is a cult classic by now and it was a weird kind of movie about a guy who carries his deformed twin brother in a basket. His brother is violent and this movie is too. It is good fun though.
Lastly, but not least are the sequels that arrived. There were not many but they were good, especially Amityville 2:The Possession. I liked this movie. Of course it is not as good as the original, but I think that it is a good solid sequel. Halloween 3: Season of the Witch was not bad as sequels go. Friday the 13th, Part 3 I enjoyed. It was a by the numbers horror movie, but it kept me entertained.So, that is all in my synopsis of this year,. Yes, I have left out movies, but I included the movies that I liked. If you have any more that you think of, let me know!
The plot of this movie is a bit weird. If you have watched the original, then you know the story. Courtney and her sister were chased by a maniacal killer and they survived. Valerie, Courtney's sister, ended up in a mental institution and Courtney has bad dreams. She is haunted by an unknown killer in her dreams. When she and her pals, Amy(McArthur) , Sheila(Cummins),Sally(Heidi Kozak) go to a condo for the weekend with their boyfriends, it all becomes strange. Courtney sees horrible things. She sees people being killed and she sees warnings from her sister. She thinks that she is losing her mind and the others are worried about her. Her love interest Matt(Lowe) is there too and he wants to help her.
The rest of the movie consists of Courtney having nightmares about a leather-clad rock n' roll maniac with a guitar that has a drill attached. He comes out of her nightmares and kills all of her pals with his groovy guitar. He chases her down and then the ending of the film is really messed up and strange. It is sort of a comedy really. You couldn't take it seriously. I found that it started well and went downhill as it progressed. The original was good, this wasn't great at all. It is worth a look for comedy value alone, but otherwise, you might avoid it. I will give it a 4/10.
Last episode, we saw Negan's crew and they got blown to bits by Daryl. Carl was shot through the eye by Jessie's son. We didn't know if he would survive. Well, he did survive and this episode begins with Rick, Michonne and Carl and they look like a happy family. Daryl and Rick are going on a supply run and they take orders from the people in Alexandria for items that they might be able to find. Daryl and Rick hit the jackpot when they find a small truck full with food. They are going to take it with them when they run into a weird guy(Tom Payne) who is known as Jesus. He tricks them and takes their truck. They chase him and get some of their stuff back and tie him up. They leave him on the road, but as they are driving along, they hear someone on the roof. It is Jesus and they stop the truck and he falls off.
There is a fight and the truck ends up rolling into a lake, losing all of their stuff. Carl and Enid are in the woods and Carl sees a walker, but he doesn't kill it. Michonne and Deanna's son, Spencer are also there and see this. Michonne wonders why Carl didn't kill the walker, but it turns out that it is Deanna and he was leaving it to Spencer to kill her. He tells Michonne that he would kill her if he she was bitten because she is part of his family. She tells him that she would do it too. Rick and Daryl bring Jesus back to Alexandria and tie him up. Rick and Michonne have sex which I did not see coming! The next morning, they wake and see Jesus standing by the bed. He tells Rick that they need to talk.
This was a very interesting episode with the introduction of the Jesus character. It should be good to see how he fits in with the rest.
