When worlds collide! This weekend, Jack from Jacked In was ecstatic to welcome Carl from Dark Matters to his annual tradition at Newcastle’s Tyneside Cinema… THE HALLOWEEN ALL-NIGHTER!

HORROR MOVIES OF THE NIGHT:

Film 1 (Both) - Ghostwatch (1992)
Film 2 (Jack) - Rosemary’s Baby (1968)
Film 2 (Carl) - Nightmare in a Damaged Brain (1981)
Film 3 (Both) - Stagefright (1987)
Film 4 (Both) - Late Night with the Devil (2023)

Our top movie of the night, a unanimous choice, Michele Soavi’s greatly entertaining grindhouse, ‘Stagefright’ - not to mention a sick ‘80s synth that well and truly gives you goosebumps throughout 👌

Jacked In swung by Tyneside Cinema to get a dose of Coralie Fargeat’s darkly comedic, satire and beautifully, bizarre, body horror that is ‘The Substance’. Check out the full review now right here: https://jackedinmovies.com/article/jacked-in-reviews-the-substance-2024/

“Imagine if H.P. Lovecraft or David Cronenberg had decided to make Death Becomes Her and you’d be somewhere in the same ballpark as Coralie Fargeat’s darkly comedic, satirical, horror.”

Jacked In says a certain Ghost with the Most’s name three times and is transported to Tim Burton’s sequel to the 1988 cult classic, ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’. Check out the full review now right here: https://jackedinmovies.com/article/jacked-in-reviews-beetlejuice-beetlejuice-2024/

“Without weighing the movie up against its predecessor, the story is still convoluted, with too many cooks (or in this case, villains)…”

The fifth episode for our collaboration with Dark Matters is now ready for your enjoyment. For everything the movie did right, it definitely deserves to be talked about more!

The fifth link in the Chained Podcast is here and Jack’s actor choice for episode 5 is Josh Brolin in Robert Rodriguez’s addition to the 2007 ‘Grindhouse’, ‘Planet Terror’.

Check out the full episode via the linka below to see/hear the lads run through the flick in great depth - as well as Brolin’s career and his contribution to this grand homage to American Grindhouse and exploitation cinema - and why it could have been great but at times may have gone a tad too far…

Jacked In swung by our second home Tyneside Cinema to review Oz Perkins’ unsettling '90s crime, thriller - with the even more unnerving Nicholas Cage in - 'Longlegs'. Check out the full review right here https://jackedinmovies.com/article/jacked-in-reviews-longlegs-2024/

"Perkins’ style could be more akin to the likes of filmmakers such as David Lynch, trying to convey a feeling rather than a specific narrative.”

Jacked In swung by Tyneside Cinema to get involved in Yorgos Stefanakos’ latest “mixed bag” of a feature, the darkly comedic, drama and triptych tale of bizarreness, ‘Kinds of Kindness’. Check out the full review RIGHT HERE: https://jackedinmovies.com/article/jacked-in-reviews-kinds-of-kindness-2024/

“If the point was to make a statement piece showing the array of similar content (and actors) constantly being turned out, perhaps Lanthimos has succeeded.”

“The terrain is dry and endless, separated by the sparse, downtrodden (quite the understatement) societies, intermittent acts of brutality and V8 engines that roar so loud you can almost smell the fumes.”

Jacked In reviews George Miller's cinematically epic, post-apocalyptic, revenge-o-matic, prequel, 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga'.
