Happy National Bird Day!
Today seems like a good day to share a scene from the twentieth best film ever made about a sudden, inexplicable bird attack, 2010’s Birdemic!
In this classic scene, four humans battle a flock of rampaging birds. Unfortunately, it would appear that none of the humans have been properly trained in how to use a coat hanger to battle low-budget CGI.
Enjoy!
Happy Halloween from horror scenes that I love!
Our final scene of the season: the party starts in 2012’s The Cabin In The Woods!
Today’s horror scene that I love comes from 2012’s The Cabin In The Woods.
How many references can you spot in that cellar?
Today’s horror scene that I love comes from 2009’s The House of the Devil.
All horror films should have a dance number.
Today’s horror scene comes from 2004’s Shaun of the Dead.
What if the world ended and you didn’t notice?
Today’s horror scene that I love comes from the 1997 French film, Two Orphan Vampires.
I knew that I really wanted to share a scene from Two Orphan Vampires on this date. It’s my favorite Jean Rollin film. Unfortunately, most of the really good scenes have been taken off of YouTube. That said, I do like the way Rollin uses the color blue in this scene and the opening image of those two blind vampires walking across the bridge is still a strong one. When viewed out of context, the attack on the poet may be seen weak but actually it’s just another example of Rollin’s dream-like aesthetic. If the attack on the poet seems fake, that may be because it wasn’t supposed to have really happened.
Watch the film and it’ll make sense.
Today’s horror scene that I love comes from the 1994 Italian film, Dellamorte Dellamore.
Viewed out of context from the rest of the film, this is not an easy scene to explain. My suggestion is enjoy it for the beauty of the images and Rupert Everett’s mournful performance. And, if you haven’t seen it, watch Dellamorte Dellamore as soon as possible.
Today’s horror scene that I love is from 1992’s Candyman.
For the record, after watching this film, I stood in front of a mirror and I said Candyman three times. I’m waiting until I have something to be mad about before I say it two more times.
