The Madness Automatons Week 3
For the start of week 3 I was still on vacation in Florida so the beginning of the week is lighter but I did manage to get in a few additional dark rides. The first was The Seas with Nemo which is located in Epcot. Once again this is a very well designed attraction with a great combination of traditional props and animatronics, video and real sea life....Rating: 5/5
The Peter Pan ride is one that was chose to fast pass. While it's a good ride it's incredibly short and the wait always seems to hover around 40 minutes and it's just not worth that....Rating: 3/5
This one's a classic and we can't visit Disney World without going on at least once. Still a great attraction and my daughter absolutely loved it....Rating: 5/5
A perverted incestuous grandpa is the leader of a satanic cult. He recruits his grandson/son?? to be in the cult. This walks the line of so bad it's good but doesn't quite get there. There is a good amount of sleaze and some decent gore though....Rating: 1.5/5
A group of teens are stalked and killed on a giant estate on Halloween night. There are some interesting ideas in here but overall comes out bland all around....Rating: 1/5
Chopping Mall is hands down one of my favorite guilty pleasures of the 80's and it's also one of Wynorski's best films. If you haven't seen it you owe yourself a viewing. I've watched it at least 3 times this year alone and it never gets old. Love this movie.....Rating: 5/5
This was the first time watching the original House on Haunted Hill. It's an enjoyable movie if only for Vincent Price's performance. It's not scary in the slightest but I had a good time watching it....Rating: 3/5
It always amazes me what these people can do with pumpkins and rice treats. Everytime I carve a pumpkin it ends up looking like a toddler did it and meanwhile these people are building werewolves battling mummies....Rating: 4/5
The marathon opened with Night of the Creeps which is a movie I really love and it's too bad it took so long to find it's audience. This was the only movie in the marathon that was projected digitally as they wanted to screen the directors cut and only had that in digital form....Rating: 5/5
Next up was Basket Case. Basket Case is another one of my favorites and it feels even dirtier on the big screen. I dragged my wife along to this marathon and Basket Case was definitely her least favorite of the bunch....Rating: 5/5
I've seen Demons in the theater already so when Demons 2 came up on the screen I was excited to see it again as it had been quite a while since I've watched it. Unfortunately I had forgotten how weak the film really is. Such a missed opportunity and I wish they had chosen one of the many other Italian films available to screen over this one....Rating: 2/5
The last film of the night was Society. I hadn't seen this one in a good 15 years and was happy to revisit it. While I feel like it falls apart a bit with how over the top it goes with some of the comedic sight gags in the third act I still think there's a really good movie in here....Rating: 3.5/5
