The Midnight Meat Train (2008)

American mystery horror film. It's about a photographer who attempts to track down a serial killer but he discovers more than he bargained for under the city streets. Rewatched this yesterday. Last time I watched this I already enjoyed it without knowing where the story would go. This time around I knew that this is far more than just a story about a serial killer and I enjoyed it even more. And I could also appreciate the cinematography a lot more than on my first watch. There are some really cool shots in here. Of course it's also very gory, but it's also based on a Clive Barker short story and some of the movies that have been adapted from his work are very much on the gorier side. This movie is so much better than the title would suggest. It sounds like a shitty low budget indie horror movie that would be sitting at a solid 2.9/10 on IMDb. Definitely doesn't do this great movie any justice. Yes, I think it's great. Of course not everyone might think that but I do and it certainly helps that I love eldritch horror and this is an eldritch horror story at its heart. So yeah, this movie has a very good cast (Bradley Cooper, Leslie Bibb, Brooke Shields, Roger Bart, Ted Raimi, Vinnie Jones, Tony Curran and more) and it's absolutely one of my favourite Bradley Cooper movies. Overall I can highly recommend it.

Monster In The Closet (1986)

American satirical science fiction horror comedy film. It's about a struggling reporter at a news agency who learns about three people that were murdered in their closets by an unseen figure in a small town and decides to investigate it. There are definitely satirical elements where like when you get announcing subtitles that are sometimes ridiculously vague like "the next monday or tuesday" and sometimes ridiculously precise like "two seventeen pm". There are also some fun gags like a shower curtains scene with way too many fakeouts (where it's just Paul Dooley a few too many times); but there's also some good stuff like the creature design and the interesting cast including young actors in their first role (Paul Walker and Fergie); veteran actors like Henry Gibson, Stella Stevens, Claude Akins, Donald Moffat, Paul Dooley and John Carradine; and also Kevin Peter Hall playing the monster (who famously played Harry in Harry and the Hendersons (1987) and the Predator in the Predator movies). If you want to see a 10 year old Paul Walker in his first movie (it was filmed in 1983 but not released until 1986) I'd say go for it but apart from that I can't really recommend it.

Terrifier (2016)

American splatter slasher film. It's about a partygoer and her sister who become targets of a mysterious serial killer dressed like a clown. Maybe my expectations were too high because of the Terrifier hype over the last few years but I didn't think this movie was all that special. Sure, the kills were brutal and this is definitely a very gory movie but Art the Clown isn't all that iconic yet (I know that that might change with the next two movies). So on its own I would've just said it's a decent horror movie but nothing revolutionary. Still, can recommend.
