    Watched From Beyond and Ready or Not, I liked both. Ready or Not is a lot of fun and gave me the feelings of a Cabin in the Woods side story. Bonus points for portraying the rich people as stupid and useless.

    From Beyond was exactly what I wanted it to be, weird body horror top notch 80’s B movie. A classic everyone should see if you even have a passing interest in the horror genre. It’s so gross, the grossest part isn’t even a special effect, I love it. Happy Halloween Everyone.

      Yes! I’m so glad you enjoyed them. From Beyond is such an 80s treasure. If you like those weird body horror films from that era, I’d recommend a couple lesser known films: Society as one in a similar vein of weirdness and Possession as a fantastic film that will sit with you for a while.

      Oh, I just realized that Society was directed by Brian Yuzna, who wrote the screenplay for From Beyond, ha.

        I will definitely put them on the long list, we come together every other week and watch 2 movies, one is picked by a different person and one by me. My buddy’s next turn I think he’s doing Get Out so maybe another horror night, that’s in a couple months though. We’re watching Little Miss Sunshine and Grave of the Fireflies next.

          OMG, Grave of the Fireflies is my favorite movie I never want to watch again. It’s incredibly heartbreaking. But it’s so good!

            That’ what I’ve heard, we haven’t watched a sad movie since Steel Magnolias two years ago so I figured it was time to make em sad again.
