Free to a Bad Home (2023)
Anthology fans look no farther
Anthology movies are usually hard for me to sit through since they usually have weak set ups or lame segments but I found this indie film to rather interesting. The stories are all connected with a cool hook that easily flows from segment to segment. Each story builds on each other and the final story gives us cool an 80s like blood bath. And blood lovers don't worry, the blood does flow in the final act.
The first story sets up the entire film and it is a non chronological possession segment. Really moody and great acting.
The second story is a cool burglary story that involves characters from the first story. This one really gave me creepshow vibes.
The 3rd story is a 80s love letter with drugs and blood. This story is the pay off for the first two segments with some awesome reveals.
I had a ball watching this on tubi and couldn't have been happier to stumble on it.
Nightbreed (1990)
Stunning
I love films that have a clear moody and atmosphere; this film has both. The creators crafted a creature film with heart and terror. But, the terror is center stage (if you watch the theatrical cut).
This movie gave me nightmares.
Entropy (2022)
Bloody and moody
This movie has a mood. And it sticks to that mood 100%. There isn't any levity in the script and I appreciate that. By the time it starts you know something bad is going to happen and the film continues to build towards a crazy 3rd act.
