Tonight's Horror Line-up:
Featured cocktail: Peach Cider from Oliver Winery

Tenebre (1982) - A slasher is inspired by a Giallo author and his latest novel. Second to Suspira, this is one of my favorite Dario Argento films. It features quality kills, cinematography and a great score by Goblin. My favorite scene is the fabulous blood spray from an axed forearm!

From Beyond (1986) - This one stars two horror fan favorites; Jeffery Combs and Barbara Crampton. it is pretty wacky film. Scientists construct, the Resonator, a machine that enables them to see beyond normal reality. They also unleash strange slimy creatures. Not as good as Reanimator, but Jeffery combs really steals the show here.

I (Kara) decided to do a double feature for tonight. The 1970's were chocked full of occult and supernatural films ! The following are available on Tubi.

Brotherhood of Satan (1971) - Children in a rural town begin to go missing and their parents killed off. Could the 13 creepy old devil worshippers have something to do with it?
Really liked the scene where the creepy doll kills a couple.

Good s. Evil - A 1977 ABC TV pilot, that was never picked -up. A cult of devil worshippers, led by Richard Lynch, wait for Satan's daughter to grow up. The girl's boyfriend hooks up with two priests to exorcise the evil from her life. Hard to get through this one, not enough scares and too much making out. lol
This one stars a very young Kim Cattrall.

Last night, I (Kara) watched Cannibal Apocalypse ( AKA Cannibals in the streets). John Saxon is always fantastic, even in this one. In this Italian/Spanish film, we basicaly have some Vietnam vets who bring home some kind of virus that turns anyone they bite or scratch into mean ol” cannibals. This is a fun piece of trash cinema. Its streaming for free on Tubi and Roku. Have you seen this one? Lets us know your thoughts!
