October can only mean one thing, spooky season is here.
As you may already know, I am racing towards the finish line of the #150DaysOfHorror challenge (currently sitting at 127 of 150). But, I also just enjoy horror movies, regardless of the time of year. So, I figured I’d try and do a weekly check-in to briefly discuss what I’ve seen recently that I’d recommend.
Shudder is arguably my favorite streaming service. The quantity and variety of what you have at your fingerprints for that price point, tough to beat. It should be no surprise that my recommendation of the week can be found streaming on Shudder. That honor goes to Speak No Evil.
The IMDb synopsis reads “A Danish family visits a Dutch family they met on a holiday. What was supposed to be an idyllic weekend slowly starts unraveling as the Danes try to stay polite in the face of unpleasantness.” That’s all you need to know going into this. Don’t look up spoilers, don’t ask around or look online, just go into it knowing as little as possible.
Another recent watch that was surprisingly enjoyable was 1989’s Intruder. This is one where you can watch the trailer, lookup spoilers, whatever you want to do before you watch it. Because the fun is in experiencing it yourself.
A fun slasher with some interesting kills. Grab some snacks, your beverage of choice, and get ready to have some schlocky fun with Intruder.
But it’s not just about what have I been watching. I also want to hear from YOU! Now that spooky season is here, what are some of your Halloween go-to movies? Do you have a new one you’re looking forward to? Tell me all about them in the comments below or by reaching out on social media!
