"Rings" not given an early release for critics. I'd say the over/under on Rotten Tomatoes is about 15%.

Oh, Rings is going to be really bad. I love that trailer they came out where it's like a nursery rhyme, but it's going to be super bad.

I'm still going to see it though.

Rings has a 6% on Rotten Tomatoes and some reviews are calling it worse than The Bye Bye Man. That's impressive!

It really is. I'm actually not sure if I'll see it in theaters. Might wait for digital release.

I did not think it was that bad at all. Well, the beginning was hokey, but it picked up

I haven't checked in here for awhile but have any of you seen the trailer for Get Out? Doesn't look like full-fledged horror but the trailer is so well made that I'm super excited for it

Oh, I should report in here that Rings was actually good. Not great, but good. Definitely not 6% Rotten Tomatoes bad.

And Get Out looks really good, as does A Cure For Wellness.

Watched Beware the Slenderman, I recommend it if you're interested in the story or the character at all. What happened is truly scary gut-wrenching and there's some interesting context shown into what makes the character so influential.

Rings was good. I mean it's hard to live up to the original but I enjoyed it. Main flaw was it borrowed from that one too much.

Get Out looks pretty fun I have to say. As does A Cure For Wellness. But especially Get Out; as an interracial couple that loves horror we are definitely checking that out!

It's pretty fucked up - I found out about it ~a week ago. Apparently the original version has real nasty photos of graphic/deviant sexual stuff, which I don't care to see. The whole "cursed tape"-type lore surrounding it is pretty interesting, though. Like the one video I saw, the guy playing started dry heaving at one point. The atmosphere's pretty intense.

I've heard that Obscure Horror Corner, a Youtube channel that has become inactive, created the game for a publicity boost. None of that supposed illegal stuff contained in the game is real.

Blood Bath
Release: March 2, 1966
Directed by: Jack Hill, Stephanie Rothman
Starring: William Campbell, Marissa Mathes, Lori Saunders, Sandra Knight, Karl Schanzer
Length: 69 mins.
Type: Vampire

Blood Bath is an interesting horror film in both execution and production. At a brisk-feeling 69 minutes, Blood Bath throttles through its story and concepts at a break neck pace, rarely devoting time to character growth or much scene development while it cycles genres.

Blood Bath was famously pieced together from another film entitled Operation: Titian, produced by famed B-movie maestro Roger Corman, along with spliced in scenes directed by Jack Hill and later Stephanie Rothman. What was created is a mis-mash of vampiric horror, sneaky, detective-style noir, and some light comedy that comes from some wannabe post-modern artists.

Yet, there's some stuff about Blood Bath that makes it a compelling watch. Campbell does some good stuff with the script and his portrayal of a vampire is different from the usual Dracula-style mythos, playing it more in a psychologically damaged fashion. Gripping lines about the beauty of darkness and death are delivered solidly by Marissa's character Daisy, which segue into a monologue from Campbell's character Sordi, an artist noted for his dark and violent paintings. The architecture and lighting make the film really pleasant to look at; Sordi's belltower home in particular is creepy and loaded with all sorts of macabre details like spider-webs and molded sculptures.

Still, while the beginning is loaded with fun shock, suspense, and death, the middle becomes somewhat of a slog as it shifts it gears to a noir detective story that feels like a completely different film. Sandra Knight's Donna follows Sordi looking for the whereabouts of her sister, and it definitely feels like something out of a spy film. Luckily, it finishes strong with a wax-museum inspired ending that had me smiling from ear to ear with how surprisingly creepy it was!

Blood Bath may not be an essential horror classic but at just over an hour's watch I don't think you can go wrong. Sid Haig has an appearance here in one of his earliest films and the history of the film is interesting enough when you read into it! The messiness of the production may turn you off, but there's some solid creepiness to be had if you let it.

Rating: 5.5/10
