Dogman 2: The Wrath of the Litter '14 :thumbsup: (It's been a year since the Dogman terrorized this Midwestern community and nearly killed Hank Purvis. But now, things seem to have settled down. Everyone has gotten back to their routine. Hank still enjoys the outdoors and loves to hunt. He and his wife, Dorothy, continue to live on their family farm in the rural Midwest. The picturesque autumn woodlands are a wonderful place to be. But things are not well. Unseen in the nearby forest, are a litter of grown Dogman pups, embarking on their terrifying destiny, and standing over seven feet tall. They are a bad batch. They have to be stopped.)

Re watch...

Dogman '12 :thumbsup: (Hanklin Purvis enjoys the outdoors, and he loves to hunt. He and his wife, Dorothy, live on a farm in the rural mid-west. For some reason, during the season before autumn, things start happening. The first victims are family pets, then wild animals. But it's not until people are injured that the police get involved. The attacker is not human, that's for sure and it needs to be stopped. Then they discover that the wounds have a deadly bacteria and the clock is ticking for those infected. Enter Hanklin's neighbor, Francis Wellman, a Native American who believes she has discovered an ancient antidote. And will they ever find the perpetrator of these horrifying attacks? They do.

Inspired by the Michigan Dogman urban legend.)

Cinderella Man (2005) via Showtime-on-Demand :thumbsup:

Based on the life of world heavyweight boxing champion James J. Braddock who struggled to support his family during The Great Depression. His comeback and "rags to riches" story inspired the nickname and gave people hope during one of America's toughest times.

The film received some criticism for how it portrayed boxing champion Max Baer. He's shown as being a rude womanizer and proudly boasts about the boxers he killed in the ring. His son Max Baer, Jr. (Jethro on The Beverly Hillbillies) said that his dad was a kind man who was forever troubled after Frankie Campbell's death in the ring.

He used a good portion of his boxing earnings to help support Campbell's family.





Rosemarie DeWitt has a small role in the film who is James J. Braddock's granddaughter.

An interesting fact about Braddock is that after he retired from boxing he went into marine equipment surplus supplies and helped construct NY's Verrazano Bridge.

Really enjoyed this one. Though it's set in modern times, the main characters' fashion and hairstyles are early 70's. The film's music, and look is also early 70's.
2 hours seemed long when I went into it, but the movie flowed right along.)

The Teacher (1974) on DVD :thumbsup:

A sexy 28-year-old high school teacher is the sole obsession of a deranged Vietnam vet who spies on her all of the time.

Some critics at the time were shocked at his adult role calling it "vulgar" and "explicit porn".

Nice! I think the only thing I've seen in her in was the Johnny Depp Lone Ranger, but I don't remember much of it other than Depp.

Yeah, I figured I had to get started on those sets.

I think for the most part I've liked all the movies on Vol 1, some are slow for sure. You'll be able to see Best Friends with the late Richard Hatch.:(

Well, you know me and dolls. Raggedy dolls I don't find scary, I had a Raggedy Andy doll as a kid, so I can see why they changed it for the movie. But if I knew about that as a kid, I'd probably have thrown ol' Andy out.

They can be scary. In the way that they are so old fashioned, innocent and wholesome,that it would be extra spooky if a Raggedy Ann suddenly were to become evil! :eek: ;)

Remember that paranormal ep.on the Waltons,when Elizabeth's Raggedy Ann was like dancing around or something?:crazy: I haven't seen that ep.in so long!

And there will be an Annabelle 2 ! ;)


Annabelle is a Raggedy Ann doll alleged by demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren to be haunted. The doll resides in a glass box at The Warrens' Occult Museum in Monroe, Connecticut. The story served as the inspiration for the films The Conjuring (2013), Annabelle (2014), and the upcoming, Annabelle 2 (2017).

Well yeah, if they became evil. But porcelain dolls are just scary without having to do anything.

I do remember that one, Elizabeth was turning 13 and supernatural things started happening around her.

Hellraiser: Revelations (2011) on Netflix :thumbsdow

Just awful. I wanted to see this just because it's a Hellraiser film and I saw that it was on Netflix. The film/cast looked like a bad "Vampire Diaries" episode. The worst of the original direct-to-video Hellraisers was 10x better than this.

Apparently it was rushed into production so Dimension Films could retain the rights to the Hellraiser franchise. They were (still are) working on a remake/reboot which has been stalled for a long time, so they would lose the rights if they didn't churn out a new Hellraiser film by a certain deadline.

Another Hellraiser film, Judgement, is due to come out direct-to-video sometime this year. Nightmare on Elm Street's Heather Langenkamp will star. Doug Bradley refused to reprise as Pinhead noting the lower quality of the recent Hellraiser films and Clive Barker's non-involvement.

Though he didn't provide the voices, Billy Barty was the rhotoscope actor for both Bilbo and Sam, and his distinct mannerisms shine through.:)
Sadly a part two was never made, the production company backed out of funding the planned sequel.)


I've been really slacking on the movie watching lately. The new horror films I have I've been saving for when my daughter comes home for Spring Break.)

There's a very entertaining docu-drama based on the making of it titled The Creep Behind The Camera, like Burton's Ed Wood took a lot of liberty with the story. But still a fun watch.

Thanks for this.

Yeah, I was looking up stuff about the guy who made the movie, Vic Savage. He apparently owed people money for helping him make the movie and he went into hiding for years when he couldn't pay them.

Firewalker (1986) on VHS :thumbsup:

Two down-on-their-luck treasure hunters are approached by a woman at random to help her find an ancient Aztec cave w/ treasure in Guatemala.



The film was Chuck Norris' first comedic role in which he spoofed his action persona.

It was blasted by critics for being a cheap rip-off of other treasure hunter movies of the time, Indiana Jones and Romancing the Stone, and for Chuck Norris' poor comedic performance.

It co-stars Melody Anderson and Will Sampson, Ian Abercrombie, and John Rhys-Davies have small roles.

Yeah, he was a total sleaze. I like how the film has both reenactments and interviews with people involved in the original film.

Four horror movies in one day. Haven't done that in years. After seeing Get Out in the theater my daughter and I had only planned on watching one more at home, but then we decided to watch two more since we'll be gone tomorrow thru Friday, Camping. So we wanted to watch them in case we didn't have enough time tonight or when we get back.

Only one stinker out of the four.

If you get a chance, check out The Boy from 2015, with David Morse and Rainn Wilson, produced by Elijah Wood. Really really good movie. Supposed to be the first of a trilogy.

I heard of it, but didn't get to it yet. Have you seen this one?

Not yet. But the premise I find very intriguing, anything doll-related is always on my horror radar.

I did enjoy another fairly recent horror film about a nanny and a "doll" Para Elisa:

When I was looking for the movie's poster I came across a couple of quotes from critics. One said it was Blood Simple meets The Three Stooges. Okay, Blood Simple I get, but Three Stooges? Seriously? The humor is not even remotely like The Three Stooges. Another said it was the perfect blend of comedy and horror. Horror? There is nothing horror about it. This is exactly why I don't pay attention to critics and reviews.)
